In August last year, Ajay Singh, co-founder and managing director of SpiceJet, received a congratulatory call from Kalanithi Maran, the former promoter of the airlines. Having returned to the helm in January 2015, at a time when the company was wading through losses to the tune of Rs 2.82 crore a day and staring at an imminent shutdown of operations, Singh had turned around its fortunes -- recording a profit of Rs 71.85 crore in that years April-June quarter. Compliments aside, Maran had a pertinent question in mind: How was such a remarkable turnaround possible? Singhs reply was simple: by just working on the basics.On Sunday, 51-year-old Singh was elected to head another body in the doldrums, the Boxing Federation of India (BFI). In this case too he feels that a return to the basics will help.Much like in the case of SpiceJet earlier, here too the morale is extremely low and people have given up hope but theres a sense of underlying passion, he told ESPN. I think people see a great deal of inspiration in the SpiceJet story -- how something which was completely dead and nearly buried was put back on its feet and is doing so well. It can definitely be replicated in boxing.Following the suspension of the Indian Amateur Boxing Federation (IABF) for manipulating its elections in 2012, the state of the sport in the country has been abysmal. Without domestic tournaments, rankings and international exposure, boxers have borne the brunt of the administrative chaos.The goal will be to re-focus on the sport rather than the politics involved in running it, Singh said. We want to restore and improve upon Indias former position as a force to be reckoned with in boxing, he said. We need to organize camps and begin preparations for Asian Games and Commonwealth Games. Boxers have suffered enough.The newly elected chief promised that the boxing nationals, which havent been conducted for four years, will be resurrected soon. He even had possible dates in mind. Our target is to hold womens nationals on or around November 15 and the mens competition on December 1, Singh said.But the immediate objective would be to gain world governing body AIBAs recognition at the earliest so Indian boxers can resume competing under the national flag at international meets. AIBA Oceania zone vice-president Edgar Tanner, who was present as an observer during the BFI elections, is understood to be satisfied with their conduct and is expected to forward his report to the world body in the next couple of days. We should be back in the fold within the next month or two, said Singh.A member of the BJPs 2014 election campaign committee, Singh is credited with coining the widely successful catchphrase Ab ki baar, Modi sarkaar (Vote in Narendra Modis government this time). We wanted a slogan which had a mention of Modi and so came up with a spin-off from our earlier line, Abki baari, Atal Bihari [the former prime minister AB Vajpayee], Singh said. It just clicked. It was crazy: both the reactions and the alliterations that followed.Singh is aware that to succeed and sustain, a sport needs to be strengthened at the grassroots. Robust training at the sub-junior level, more tournaments across all tiers and a transparent selection policy will form the core of the revamped system he has in mind. Most importantly, selection polices must be guided by merit instead of a regional or quota system, he said. We must set up a world-class boxing academy, host more international tournaments and form a boxing league.And once faith in the BFI is restored, funds would not be hard to find. Corporates look for certainty and visibility, and if we have that going, money will flow in, he said.It was during Vijender Singhs home pro debut bout against Australias Kerry Hope in New Delhi in July this year, sponsored by his company, that Singh found greater conviction in pitching himself for his latest role. One where he felt he could make a difference. Im always happy to look at troubled scenarios and help them get back on their feet, Singh said.Indian boxing could, after all, find its wings again.

Roberto Alomar Jersey . Laudrup revealed Thursday he was notified of his dismissal in "the briefest of letters which gave no reasons why such hasty and final action was deemed necessary.

"The result looked easier than it really was," Ivanovic said. There are just five NBA games on tap for Thursday evening, which certainly cuts down a bit on the variety of potential starting DFS lineups. Which players should you build around, and which players should you fade? Our experts have the answers.Todays panel includes ESPN Fantasys Kyle Soppe and Renee Miller, plus DFS expert Al Zeidenfeld.Players to build aroundKyle Soppe --?Wilson Chandler, Denver NuggetsThere is no shortage of star players in action tonight and Im not going to try to sway you on which one (or two) to roster. Instead, Im handing out a strong value play that allows you to plug in whatever high-end option youd like. The Nuggets may not be a good team, but they own the second-highest implied total on the board tonight and Chandler figures to lead their attack, thanks to his 12th-highest usage rate among SF this season.Chandler is averaging career-highs in field goal attempts and rebounds this season, raising the floor from years past. The Blazers rarely bring it on the defensive end, and given that they are in the middle of a nine-game, 15-day stretch that sees them play eight times on the road, I cant imagine tonight being the night that they decide to buy in on the defensive end.Renee Miller -- Nikola Jokic, Denver NuggetsMore often than not, youll find me putting the PF facing Portland in this space. No team gives up more fantasy points to opposing bigs than the Trail Blazers. Further, while Portland ranks 25th in rebounding rate, the Nuggets are No. 1, and the efficient play of Jokic is a big reason. Id love to see Jokic play more than 24-28 minutes per night, but even those limited minutes have allowed him to rack up five double-doubles in the past six games hes played. As good as hes been, tonight could be a truly masterful showing from Jokic, who is an especially good value on FanDuel.Al Zeidenfeld -- Damian Lillard, Portland Trail BlazersIts a small slate, but there are a lot of quality options to choose from tonight. The player I cant keep out of my lineup is Lillard because of the matchup and pace against the Nuggets. This game should be the most competitive and high-scoring affair of the night, and in those situations you want as much exposure to the primary ball handlers as possible in order to maximize as much of the fourth quarter usage as you can. I wouldnt be surprised to see people roster four players from this game on ttheir primary lineups.dddddddddddd To me, tonight starts with Lillard, and then you can build outward.Players to fadeKyle Soppe -- Draymond Green, Golden State Warriors Fresh off of his first triple-double of the season, Green is priced in the same tier as Kawhi Leonard and Paul George.?No thanks, Ill pass. Greens usage rate ranks 37th this season -- among power forwards. His well-rounded skill set is nice, but with a low shot total and a low free throw count, you essentially need elite production from Green in all other categories for him to reach value. Could that happen? Sure, but thats a significant risk to take given both his price and a likely matchup with Kristaps Porzingis. Greens ceiling isnt high enough for me in this spot, and the blowout potential of this game is another concern that is very real tonight.Renee Miller -- Giannis Antetokounmpo, Milwaukee BucksThere are a lot of game-time decisions and questionable designations on tonights slate. I think Antetokounmpo plays tonight, but Im personally more inclined to spend up on Anthony Davis, Kevin Durant, or Damian Lillard tonight. Those guys are playing in faster paced games with higher projected point totals, and with equal or better defensive matchups. Plus, there arent any injury concerns with that trio. When Im paying one of the top salaries, as Antetokounmpo commands, I dont want any question marks.Al Zeidenfeld -- Paul George, Indiana PacersGeorge just doesnt do enough on a consistent basis to justify the price he carries on DraftKings, yet hes surrounded by players just a few hundred dollars above and below his price that do. Carmelo Anthony, Jimmy Butler and Kawhi Leonard are all higher than George in my projections for tonight, each of them sitting within $1,000 in salary (in both directions). George is capable of a big game, but the probability of him having one is less likely and less predictable than those around him. Ill wait for a price drop before investing again.Al Zeidenfeld is a promoter and user at DraftKings (Username: Al_Smizzle) and plays on his personal account in games he offers advice on.
