Video Game Review: Diablo III: Ultimate Evil Edition

Were we to start listing the number of Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 titles that have been upgraded with better graphics or repackaged with additional DLC for the Xbox One and PlayStation 4, we’d be here for a while.

The Wire Troll: Jon Jay Plays His Cards Right

Jay’s good friend Freese is starting to show the Angels what the Cardinals got glimpses of prior to trading him.

While others tried to showcase skills and become a recognizable face to those that cover the league for the media, Exum’s agent chose to keep his client a mystery, eliminating the opportunity for scouts to see how he compared to the rest of the rookie class. The mystique strategy appeared to be nothing more than an attempt to get drafted very high based on stats earned in an environment considered inferior to the D-League.
