Freischaltung » to the end.Boon said, Its unbelievable

The holidays arent the only thing just around the corner. Next week also brings a critical date on the fantasy football calendar.The trade deadline in ESPN leagues arrives Wednesday, Nov. 23, at 12 p.m. ET, roughly 24 hours before well all enjoy turkey, stuffing and football. Its your last chance to make a significant upgrade to your playoff-bound -- or playoff-hopeful -- roster, outside of free agency.That in mind, enjoy some metaphorical hors doeuvres in advance of Thanksgiving, by acquiring (those in the Buy list) or trading (Sell list) the recommended names below.BuyBen Roethlisberger, QB, Pittsburgh Steelers: Hes one of the few high-end quarterbacks who might actually be affordable via trade, mainly because dealing for him means absorbing some risk in the injury department. Roethlisberger has missed five of the Steelers past 22 regular-season games and has averaged 1.7 games missed in his dozen seasons as the teams full-time starter. Still, those willing to take chances tend to score the bargains, and Roethlisbergers Week 10 outburst was extremely encouraging in the health department, as he heads into whats one of the most favorable remaining schedules: at Cleveland, at Indianapolis, vs. the New York Giants, at Buffalo, at Cincinnati, vs. Baltimore and vs. Cleveland (its the second-most favorable using Week 11 Matchups Map data). If not for the schedule that Drew Brees has remaining -- its the most-favorable using that measure -- Roethlisberger might be my choice to be fantasys top-scoring quarterback in the final seven weeks of the season. Also consider: Philip Rivers.Lamar Miller, RB, Houston Texans: Perhaps memories of the Dolphins inexplicably conservative usage of Miller are still too fresh, but his fantasy owners might be a tad panicky learning that he has played only 45 percent of the Texans offensive snaps in their past three games combined. Injuries, however, contributed, and once those are in his rear view, hell presumably have his workhorse role restored. After all, the Texans didnt invest $14 million in guaranteed money in Miller to have him languish in a committee, especially not when their $37 million (again, guaranteed money) quarterback is struggling this much. As with Roethlisberger, making a deal for Miller is absorbing some injury risk, but again, thats the point. Miller has RB1 skill, plus one of the better playoff schedules out there. Also consider: Jonathan Stewart.Michael Thomas, WR, New Orleans Saints: As hinted above, the Saints passing game as a whole has an extremely favorable remaining schedule, but Thomas is an especially attractive target because his perceived value hasnt yet caught up with his true value. (If you dont believe that, check out his ranking relative to Brandin Cooks in some of the rest-of-year sets elsewhere.) Thomas has more catches (56) and has played more offensive snaps (552) than Cooks (51 and 540), plus he has only two fewer targets (73-75) and run only 24 fewer routes (359-383). Hes also no more likely than Cooks to draw his opponents best coverage in any remaining game, significant in that the Saints remaining opponents have been tougher on No. 1 wide receivers than the supporting cast. This is a great schedule for Brees spread-it-around tendencies. Also consider: Doug Baldwin.Dennis Pitta, TE, Baltimore Ravens: Among tight ends, hes first in routes run (316) and second in both targets (64) and receptions (46). If theres a knock on him, though, its that he has only five red zone targets, tied for 17th at the position, which helps explain how he hasnt yet caught a touchdown pass. Fortunately, Pittas remaining schedule includes a lot of games against defenses that have ceded volume in numbers to opposing tight ends, especially the Cincinnati Bengals (53 catches, 10.7 fantasy points per game, fourth-most), whom hell face twice. He has a TE1 ceiling, but since hes probably a backup on many fantasy teams, he might come at the cost of a nonstarting RB or WR. Also consider: Coby Fleener.SellAaron Rodgers, QB, Green Bay Packers: Its wise to play the quarterback matchups -- especially for smaller league -- and dealing Rodgers is more a matter of his perceived value perhaps netting a low-end RB1 or WR1. Rodgers has two significant obstacles standing in his way: Matchups with the Seattle Seahawks (Week 14) and Minnesota Vikings (Week 16), which come at inopportune times, and five of his final six matchups overall grade as below-average (at best). He hasnt looked quite as sharp this season as in the past -- though his fantasy production has been extremely good during the softest part of his schedule these past three weeks. Without much support from his backfield, hes more likely to be exposed against tighter defenses in the coming weeks. Also consider: Marcus Mariota.Robert Kelley, RB, Washington Redskins: Hes one of the weeks hottest pickups, but hes a player to flip as quickly as you can, considering whats ahead. Kelley draws the Nos. 2 (at Arizona, Week 13), 4 (vs. Carolina, Week 15), 6 (at Dallas, Week 12) and 8 (at Philadelphia, Week 14) worst matchups for a running back, using seasonal Matchups Map data, in his final seven games. Not a single one of his seven remaining matchups ranks among the 10-most favorable for the position. Kelleys numbers this season look impressive on the surface, but hes not a big-play running back and is more likely to be exposed by some of the tougher defenses out there. If your leagues trade market is valuing him as an RB2, make the deal. Also consider: Jay Ajayi.T.Y. Hilton, WR, Indianapolis Colts: Like Thomas, Donte Moncrief has played a much larger role than perceived since returning from injury. Montcrief has played more offensive snaps (120), run more routes (73) and garnered more targets (15) with as many catches (7) as Hilton (108, 69, 14 and 7) in Weeks 8-9 combined. While Hiltons hamstring injury did influence those numbers, some consideration must be given to the possibility that Moncriefs role is expanding in the Colts offense. Hiltons playoff schedule -- vs. Houston, at Minnesota, at Oakland, vs. Jacksonville -- is one of the most brutal (keep in mind that the Texans have owned him in their recent meetings), so see if you can use the fact that hes fresh off his bye week as reason to argue hes 100 percent and worthy of a top-five wide receiver trade return. A deal straight up for Miller, for example, might get it done. Also consider: Michael Crabtree.Delanie Walker, TE, Tennessee Titans: As productive as he has been of late, Walkers value probably wont get any higher than it is today. His Titans are one of the two teams with a Week 13 bye, which is simply awful for fantasy scheduling, then he returns to easily the most brutal schedule of any tight end: vs. Denver, at Kansas City, at Jacksonville, vs. Houston. All four defenses rank among the bottom 10 in terms of fantasy points per game allowed to the position, and Walker totaled 10 fantasy points in his previous matchups against the Jacksonville Jaguars and Texans this season. On raw talent, hes easily regarded a top-three tight end going forward, except that matchup quality (not to mention volume) isnt there. If you could get a high-end RB2 -- perhaps aim high for a player like the aforementioned Miller or a WR2, like Baldwin -- and have a solid backup tight end, make the deal. Also consider: Jack Doyle.

Peter Holland and Brad Staubitz were sent to Toronto on Saturday as the Maple Leafs traded defenceman Jesse Blacker and draft picks to the Anaheim Ducks. RIO DE JANEIRO -- Argentina and Belgium gatecrashed the Olympic field hockey festival and reached their first mens final together on Tuesday.Nobody saw them coming.Not Germany, the defending two-time champion, which was humiliated by a record 5-2 by the Argentines.And not the Netherlands, which had never lost to its Belgian neighbor in major competition, but saw that 80-year streak terminated 3-1.This is crazy, said Argentina midfielder Lucas Rey, who could have also spoken for Belgium. We knew we could do this, but its still crazy.Before the final on Thursday, Germany and the Netherlands, the finalists in London, will play for bronze.Even its own deliriously happy supporters couldnt believe Argentina made its first major final.For two decades, their womens team, Las Leonas, the Lionesses, have racked up major honors, including medals at the last four Olympics. But they lost their quarterfinal late Monday, and 14 hours later, from out of their considerable shadow, Los Leones, the Lions, came of age by ending the reign of the 2008 and 2012 Olympic champion.It wasnt even close.Argentina scored off its first three penalty corners, all struck by Gonzalo Peillat on the stick side of Germany goalkeeper Nicolas Jacobi, in the first half. Germany, featuring six players from 2012, was restricted to two shots in the whole half.After the interval, Joaquin Menini and Lucas Vila extended the lead to 5-0 with less than a quarter left. Thats when Germany replaced its goalie for an extra forward to try and limit the roasting.The Germans had enjoyed a streak of luck by scoring in the last 8 seconds of three games, including forcing a 4-4 draw with Argentina in pool play last Thursday. But even though they came back furiously with a penalty stroke goal by captain Moritz Furste, who failed on all five of his penalty corners, and a Christopher Ruhr goal, there was no chance of another miracle comeback.As the score mounted, Menini said their prime thought was not, Were smashing Germany by a record score, but more, Dont lose this.Every time we started from the middle line, we said the score was zero-zero, that we had to keep on playing, keep on defending, Menini added.Paillet, the expert drag-flicker who has converted a remarkable 10 of his 36 chances in these games, said, Germany always plays to the last seconds. We couldnt stop and congratulate ourselves.Not until the last minute did Argentina coach Carlos Retegui, responsible for many of the womens triumphs, finally accept hed masterminded the mens greatest success yet, and began hugging his assistants.dddddddddddd Seconds later, the players were embracing and group hopping all over the Olympic Hockey Stadium, too, roared on by hundreds of fans.Like Argentina, the Belgians are a veteran team, even more so. They contain a staggering amount of experience; two players with more than 300 caps, another five with over 200. Intense preparation, deep self-belief and suddenly finding their groove swept them into their first Olympic medal match in 88 years, and they received one last boost before playing the mighty Dutch.The PA system broke down, so the national anthems couldnt be played. The Dutch fans, unprompted, spurred their team to start singing, then the Belgium team went a capella, loudly, with their fans echoing them.It was a goosebump moment, forward Thomas Briels said.They never let the Dutch get in a rhythm.Tom Boon hit in a rebound of his own penalty corner attempt, then captain John-John Dohmen knocked in a great pass from Cedric Charlier and it was 2-0 seconds out from halftime. There was time for Netherlands short corner expert Mink van der Weerden to punch in his ninth goal but if the Dutch thought at halftime they were back in it, they were mistaken.Belgium continued to cut through midfield, set up chances, while strangling the favorites. Charlier set up Florent van Aubel to start the last quarter, and the defense smothered a frustrated Netherlands to the end.Boon said, Its unbelievable we were better than them. We showed good hockey, good maturity, a team fighting for each other. We showed our Belgian hearts.We, Dohmen added, are having the tournament of our lives.Belgium and Argentina barely have a history in major events. Theyve met in recent World League Finals, but not in an Olympic Games for 40 years.Boon didnt care. Having finally conquered their neighbor on the greatest stage, he didnt rate Argentina.We can beat Argentina, for sure, he said. We have an unbelievable team. I dont think anyone is going to stop us.The womens semifinals on Wednesday are Netherlands vs. Germany, New Zealand vs. Britain. ' ' '
