Of course, they could flop, too. We all understand this, but the potential is there for both given their respective situations and talent. This week, both have favorable matchups, so if they’re on the waiver wire, pick them up. If they’re on someone else’s team, see what it will take to get them in a trade. It can’t hurt. There are plenty of other good, under-the-radar options this week. Check out some of our favorites....

The Wildlife SOS-GSPCA team were called to Madhu Farm, in Kalali, India, where the six-foot Indian Cobra was videoed eating its gargantuan five-foot viper dinner after a fight between the two snakes.

Snakes are one of the leading causes of death in India, with an average of 58,000 people dying from snake bites per year, and an estimated 1....

The IP55/57 certified Xperia Z which is dust and waterproof could soon have a formidable competitor in the Galaxy S4, giving clumsy customers one more interesting option to pick. As of now, the device is codenamed Galaxy S4 Active and makes most sense for smartphones users who love the great outdoors. This could very well propel Samsung Galaxy S4 to the top of the list, and go on to make it the best phone on 2013, much like its predecessor....

Common Cause filed a complaint on Wednesday to Attorney General Merrick Garland — Biden’s pick to lead the agency, who was confirmed by the Senate hours before the letter was sent — and acting U.S. Attorney Kurt Erskine requesting a probe of whether Trump and other officials violated federal statutes by pressuring Georgia officials to subvert the state’s election results. “Georgians deserve to have confidence in elections and have a right under federal law to have their votes counted,” the complaint read....

United were cruising in the first half, as two Ashley Young goals and Anthony Martial goal made it 3-0. However, with 13 minutes to go, the away side conceded a penalty, which Troy Deeney converted. This goal gave Watford confidence too, as Doucoure then made it 3-2, something that seemed impossible just 10 minutes before-hand. But, a solo goal from Jesse Lingard sealed the win for the visitors, as Jose Mourinho’s team scored 4 goals for the fifth time in the Premier League this season....

The Germany international is back at Dortmund for a second spell after a €38million agreement was reached between the Bundesliga rivals in June. Hummels won three successive top-flight crowns with Bayern, including last season’s when finishing two points in front of BVB, but Rummenigge was still willing to sanction the experienced centre-back’s exit when a big bid came in. “I am very grateful to Karl-Heinz Rummenigge for having respected the player’s will,” Watzke told DPA....

Any discussion of the world’s top female fighters must include Braekhus (34-0, 9 KOs) and Shields (7-0, 2 KOs)....

Wimbledon released a statement on Wednesday announcing its decision to ban players from Russia and Belarus from entering the competition in light of the aggression against Ukraine. Svitolina initially released a statement on Twitter calling for players from the two countries to be banned from all international competitions, but she sung a slightly different tune while speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live. Svitolina added that while the treatment of Russian and Belarusian players may be deemed unfair, there are some who can do more to highlight the seriousness of the situation....

The 28-year-old has faced a variety of accomplished defenders across the world throughout his prestigious career with the Red Devils and England, but when asked to name his most formidable opponent, the answer was close to home. The forward declared: “I’d say John Terry, he’s tall and he’s strong.” Rooney has come up against Terry on a number of occasions during the rivalry United have enjoyed with the west Londoners in recent years and also played alongside him for the Three Lions....

Although Moloney ate punches through much of those 24 minutes, he kept coming, refusing to let his motor idle. The headstrong effort paid off for the game Australian.

The SN750 is the latest incarnation of WD’s NVMe SSD and though it could be criticised for using last year’s hardware, firmware and software updates mean it’s still competitive in 2019. Price & availability The SN750 is available in four capacities: 250GB, 500GB, 1TB and 2TB. There’s also a choice of ‘with heatsink’ or without. But even at the time of writing, a good six weeks after launch, there’s still no sign of the 2TB being available....

They weren’t finished talking. On Thursday, at a surprise press conference, the Ramseys insisted they had nothing to do with their daughter’s death. “I’m appalled that anyone would think that John or I would be involved in such a hideous, heinous crime,” Patsy said, staring down the camera. It made great TV, but the Ramseys’ sudden coming out seemed to raise more questions than it answered. Did they decide to cooperate with police because they have nothing to hide–or because they’re worried the cops might be closing in?...

Atleti head to Camp Nou trailing the leaders by eight points, meaning anything less than a win is likely to end their hopes of winning LaLiga. Barca’s latest treble charge has been spearheaded by Messi, who has scored 42 goals in 39 appearances in all competitions in another spectacular season. But, rather than focus on the fearsome form of the Argentina star, Simeone is keen to highlight the work of Valverde, especially in light of the disappointment of last term’s shock Champions League quarter-final exit at the hands of Roma....
