The impressive CG trailer opens with a gloomy shot of what appears to be the broken kingdom of Lothric and a group of wanderers heading north according to the narrator. From there, the ominous trailer goes on to quickly show a number of boss style characters including the ooze-like Aldrich Saint of the Deep, warriors from Farron’s Undead Legion, and the towering Yhorm the Giant. [HTML1] The cinematic closes out with a message that the Unkindled will rise, something fans will be aware of as a reference to the player character as Namco Bandai previously confirmed that players will awaken in an area known as the Untended Graves as an Unkindled....

There are many impediments to its real-world adoption. Perhaps most prominent is the extremely limited number of merchants where consumers can spend their crypto. Many cryptocurrency networks are too slow to use at registers, or their transactions are too expensive to facilitate everyday purchases. DashDirect is a new crypto payment and instant savings app that aims to resolve all of these adoption impediments. It’s powered by Dash, a cryptocurrency specifically optimized for fast and low-cost payments....

Dave Bautista, former beefy wrestler and current beefy actor, has announced that he will no longer play Drax the Destroyer in the Guardians of the Galaxy films following the upcoming 3rd installment in the franchise. Having played the role to critical acclaim since 2014, Bautista has made no secret about how much he’s enjoyed the character over the years. But all good things must come to an end, it seems, and for what it’s worth as a silver lining, the decision appears to be his own rather than one suggested by the studio....

Jared Leto portrayed Joker in the widely panned Suicide Squad film after months of preparation, physical alterations, and stories of controversial method acting. However, his performance wasn’t received in the way Leto had intended. Since the film was released, Ayer has come out and claimed Suicide Squad would have turned out differently had the studio not interfered with his vision, a common theme with Warner Bros.’ DC Extended Universe films....

The same day as the Kentucky Derby, Mayweather vs. Pacquiao, an NBA Game 7, and the NFL Draft, the soccer stud decided to sign up for Instagram. Not a big deal for most, but in some circles it puts the icing on a very big day in sports.

Moore, who broke a school record in his 2018 debut against Northwestern with 313 all-purpose yards, became the standard for Boilermakers receivers under coach Jeff Brohm. This isn’t another Moore story, even if that’s where it begins. “Rondale just wanted to be the greatest at what he could be,” Purdue receiver David Bell said at Big Ten Media Days. “He wanted to control his destiny. He put the work in to get where he is now, and he set a great foundation not only for me to follow but for the rest of the receivers to follow....

Benavidez (24-0, 21 KOs), who is in his eighth year as a professional fighter, is The Ring magazine’s No. 1-ranked super middleweight contender to Saul “Canelo” Alvarez, who became the undisputed champion in the division with his 11th-round knockout against Caleb Plant last week. HALE: It’s time to discuss Canelo’s place among all-time boxing greats Benavidez is a potential opponent for Alvarez in a May 2022 fight. He spoke with Sporting News on Thursday about the prospect of the bout....

Krejci, 28, has played in just 11 games this season, including only two of the past 12, due to an injury he suffered during the preseason. He has just three goals and 10 points.

Perhaps the biggest decision DFS players will make tonight is whether they think Max Scherzer or Jacob deGrom will get the better of their head-to-head matchup. While both can put up huge numbers, obviously only one can walk away with that all-important win. Carlos Carrasco might be the better high-priced option for this reason alone. Jake Arrieta can also have a big performance, but he has a tough matchup in Boston, if that scares you....

That’s especially true with pitchers, where four of the top five in our rankings are playing day games. While Jon Lester stands out at the top choice, Dylan Bundy and his eight-game quality start streak isn’t far behind, especially with Miguel Cabrera (oblique) out. The evening slate is headlined by Marcus Stroman, who will be a very popular pick in cash games. For GPPs, Jordan Montgomery and Edinson Volquez both have high strikeout potential and could rack up big points if they can limit runs....

There’s a lot of ace-level talent and potential value pitchers on the mound Thursday, in both the afternoon and evening slates. The problem is that a lot of those aces and values are facing each other or a tough offense, making it difficult to predict a win for any. That means DFS owners are going to have to dig into the numbers a little more to find the right matchups and/or values on the mound....

Dallas escaped with a big 26-20 win because Prescott was almost perfect passing (32 of 36, 279 yards) and didn’t turn over the ball once, while Tampa Bay can keep thinking about might have been after Winston (17 of 35, 247 yards, 2 TDs) threw three interceptions and lost a fumble. Prescott isn’t all good again for good after rebounding from his worst rookie game last week, and Winston wasn’t suddenly a dud as his team lost for the first time in six games....

It’s not just for this season, for which Dallas is 5-1 after Week 6’s 30-16 rout of the Packers. Given Prescott is also the future, what he did at Lambeau Field sets up Romo to likely to never see the field again for Dallas, regardless of how healthy his back is. That’s no indictment on how good Romo has been and still could be in the current state of the Cowboys’ offense, much like he showed in ‘14....

The Cowboys quarterback’s agent Todd France has floated out a range of $34 million per year on the heels of Eagles’ Carson Wentz’s record-breaking four-year, $128 million contract, according to the Dallas Fort Worth Star-Telegram, which cited unidentified sources. Prescott, entering his fourth season in Dallas and the last on his rookie contract, was vague about the status negotiations. “Yeah, I’m involved. It’s about me,” Prescott said after the team’s minicamp Thursday....
