RENTON, Wash. -- While the rest of the wide receivers were going through agility drills, Doug Baldwin joined teammates almost literally twice his size.For several minutes, Baldwin lined up with the Seattle Seahawks defensive linemen, slapping at the pads worn on the forearms of defensive line coach Travis Jones. Its a drill designed for pass rushers to focus on getting off blocks.And it works quite well for wide receivers trying to escape the hands of grabby cornerbacks.With the defensive backs trying to put their hands on me, using the techniques that Cliff (Avril) and Mike (Bennett) have taught me about my hand placement on the defensive backs hands trying to get myself around them. The different techniques theyve taught me I just try and practice it in that drill, Baldwin said.That specific drill -- suggested Avril and Bennett -- is another example of Baldwins evolution.Once primarily known for feeling dissed in every manner possible, Baldwin is no longer Angry Doug all the time. His motivation remains the same, but hes now content entering his sixth season. It helps that Baldwin is coming off the finest season of his career that concluded with him getting rewarded with a $46 million, four-year contract extension. The contract pays him like one of the premier wide receivers in the NFL and kept him from reaching free agency after the 2016 season.It meant a lot to be recognized, to be appreciated and plainly as a human being all of us want to feel loved and appreciated and valued, Baldwin said. When you put a number to it, honestly, its really not about the money, but the money does equate to respect and appreciation and love. It feels great, but at the same time nothing really changes. When we are on the football field we are still going to work because we have an ultimate goal to get to. It does feel good to have that behind me so we can focus on the field.Baldwin was at the center of Seattles offensive progression in 2015. While the Seahawks will always be a run-first team, they discovered a quick passing game during the latter half of last season where Baldwin thrived. Baldwin finished the year with 78 catches and 14 touchdowns, tied for the NFL lead. Eleven of those 14 TDs came in the final six weeks, including a three-game span with eight TD catches.The success of last season seemed to validate what Baldwin claimed for years: that if given the opportunity, Seattles passing game could be among the best in the league.While the underlying expectation is that Baldwin needs to come close to replicating last year to avoid having it considered an anomaly, it may not happen simply because of Seattles offensive focus.It is a mindset you have to have when you come to the Seattle Seahawks, when you come to any run-first offense you have to realize you are going to be called upon to block, more so than scoring touchdowns, Baldwin said. That is a reality we face year in and year out.To that point, Baldwins goal has become efficiency rather than raw numbers. Hell never see anything close to the 193 targets Antonio Brown had last year, so Baldwin must make the most of the throws that come his way. Last year, Baldwin caught nearly 76 percent of the passes thrown in his direction.Even someone who has been around Baldwin for close to a decade can see the continuing evolution of his teammate both at Stanford and with the Seahawks.I told him the other day he had a fantastic feel for the game. He is just a man among boys right now, Richard Sherman said. He knows his spots, he knows where he needs to be on the field, he knows when he needs to be there and he and Russell (Wilson) just have a great rapport going on right now. I think in terms of the skill set was the same, hes still as fast, hes still as explosive, but the feel wasnt the same. He would be running into coverage sometimes, now hes running into spots making sure hes open. Russell is hitting him on time. Hes not juking and jiving, hes making his one cut ... hes more confident in what hes doing.---Online:AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Homme Undercover x Nike React Element 87 Collection Bleu/Or/Bleu AQ1813-341 .Y. -- Marcell Dareus and the Buffalo Bills defence made life miserable for Super Bowl MVP Joe Flacco. Homme John Elliott x Nike Vandal High Blanche AH8518-100 . The FA rejected Wilsheres appeal that the length of his punishment was "clearly excessive" and said Thursday his suspension begins with immediate effect.

The formidable trio of Canadian receivers -- individually known as Chris Getzlaf, Rob Bagg and Andy Fantuz -- will share the field at Mosaic Stadium one more time on Sunday. Nike Zoom Pegasus 32 Bleu .ca! Hi Kerry, Heres an interesting one. I know its common knowledge that all players are responsible for their sticks. We witnessed that when Zack Kassian hit Edmontons Sam Gagner in the face after a missed check. Nike Zoom Vapor 9.5 Tour Rouge . -- Former San Diego Chargers safety Paul Oliver was found dead at his Atlanta-area home Tuesday night, and a medical examiner said Wednesday that the ex-player committed suicide. DALLAS -- Dirk Nowitzkis new contract will give the Dallas forward a chance spend 20 seasons with the only franchise he has ever played for.The Mavericks and Nowitzki have reached agreement on a two-year, $40 million contract, a person with knowledge of the deal told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Tuesday because contracts cant be signed until late Wednesday night Central time. Nowitzki will have a player option in the second year.The person also said the Mavericks have agreed to a two-year, $6 million contract with free agent guard Seth Curry, the younger brother of two-time MVP Stephen Curry.At $20 million per season, Nowitzkis deal is a significant raise for the 38-year-old, who opted out of the final year of a three-year, $25 million deal that was a huge discount for the Mavericks. It helped them get Chandler Parsons in free agency two years ago, although he is leaving for a max deal in Memphis.L.A. Lakers star Kobe Bryant was just the fifth player in NBA history to reach 20 seasons and he retired in April as the only one so far to do it all with one team. Tim Duncan of the Spurs is considering whether to return for a 20th season in San Antonio.Last spring, Nowitzki said after another first-round playoff exit that he felt as if he had at least two more good seasons in him after leading the Mavericks in scoring for the 15th time in 16 seasons. The 2007 NBA MVP essentially told a media outlet in his native Germany on Tuesday that he would retire with the Mavericks.Ive always said that Ill end my career in Dallas, Nowitzki told the German news agency DPA in comments translated by the AP. Ive been here 18 seasons. It would be great if I can make it 20.Nowitzkis future with the Mavericks was actually a legitimate question Friday, the opening day of free agency when Dallas struck out on its top targets for the fifth straight year. Nowitzki had said the only way he woouldnt return is if the Mavericks tried to surround him with unproven players.ddddddddddddBut the Mavericks added three veteran starters in two days, including two-fifths of the lineup for the 73-win Golden State Warriors, who blew a 3-1 lead and lost the NBA Finals to Cleveland. Dallas is set to add small forward Harrison Barnes on a max deal at four years and $94 million. Barnes was a restricted free agent, but the Warriors will renounce the rights to him to make room under the salary cap for Kevin Durant.Golden State also had to find a new home for Andrew Bogut after securing a commitment from Durant, and agreed to trade the 31-year-old center to the Mavericks.The Mavericks will have three returning starters in Nowitzki, shooting guard Wesley Matthews and point guard Deron Williams, who has agreed to a second season with his hometown team on a one-year, $10 million contract.Williams started Dallas run of failures in free agency in 2012 when he decided to make the move with the Nets from New Jersey to Brooklyn. But he quickly joined the Mavericks on a $5 million deal when the Nets bought him out last summer.Nowitzki, the NBA Finals MVP when the Mavericks won the franchises only championship in 2011, figures to become the sixth player in NBA history and seventh player overall to reach 30,000 career points next season. The 7-footer with the smooth jumper has 29,491 in 18 seasons, sixth on the NBA list and eighth with ABA players included.The 25-year-old Curry will be on his fifth team in four seasons. After playing sparingly for Memphis, Cleveland and Phoenix his first three years, Curry averaged 6.8 points and 1.5 assists in 44 games for Sacramento last season.---Associated Press Writer Nesha Starcevic in Frankfurt, Germany, contributed to this report.

ATHENS, Ohio -- Jordan Dartis scored 15 points, and Kenny Kaminski and Antonio Campbell each had 14 to lead Ohio over Southern 77-67 in the season opener for both teams on Saturday.With the score tied at 44 early in the second half, Kaminski made back-to-back 3s, Dartis hit a 3 and Campbells layup pushed Ohios lead to 55-46 with 14:41 to play.Later, Kaminski made another 3 and the lead went to 64-51. Kaminski shot 4 for 8 from 3-point range.Trelun Banks hit a 3 with 2:58 left to cut the Jaguars deficit to 69-62 with 2:58 left, but Campbells layup and dunk with two minutes left pushed the margin to 11.The Jaguars outrebounded the Bobcats 43-35 but committed 22 turnovers and collected 24 fouls.Chris Thomas led Southern with 15 points on 6-of-12 shooting while Patrick Smith had 12 points and nine rebounds and Shawn Prudhomme added 12 points and six boards.

"Its still the same cranky Phil. Tug McGraw Jersey . The Cincinnati Reds remain perfect with their speedy rookie outfielder in the starting lineup. Dion Lewis injury setback isnt only frustrating news for his fantasy owners in leagues that drafted early; its also aggravating in that it takes the New England Patriots backfield a step backwards in terms of role certainty from week to week.Lewis, only nine months and four days removed from surgery to repair a torn ACL in his left knee, will undergo a second surgery on the knee, a cleanup procedure that will apparently afford him a chance to return before the 2016 season concludes.In all likelihood, Lewis will land on the reserve/PUP list, which requires a minimum six games absence. The Boston Herald, meanwhile, reports that Lewis will miss 8-10 weeks, which would put his timetable for recovery at around Weeks 7-9. As the Patriots have a Week 9 bye, its likely that Lewis wont be a consideration until the Week 10 game against the Seattle Seahawks, giving him a chance at an eight-game season, but then the difficulty in a typical players recovery from an ACL tear needs to be considered. In standard leagues, its impossible to formulate a case to draft Lewis, especially not with bench spots precious during the Weeks 3-11 bye period.In Lewis absence, the fallout might seem somewhat obvious: LeGarrette Blount, who at times during the offseason was hinted to not even be guaranteed a roster spot, now appears to be the teams primary back on first and second downs; James White, who caught 40 passes in 10 games (playoffs included) after Lewis Week 9 injury last season and was the subject of much buzz during the 2014 preseason, now steps up as the teams passing-down back.The problem, however, is that each player presents inherent flaws, and for those drafting in close pproximity to such value-changing news, the danger is in overreacting.dddddddddddd. Blount, for example, is a mere 9-for-20 in converting goal-line runs (within 1 yard of the goal line) during his career, his 45 percent conversion rate well beneath the 54 percent league average during that time span. And he scored a whopping (and league-leading) 40 of his 110 fantasy points with the Patriots up by at least two touchdowns on the scoreboard in 2015, giving him more of a look of finisher than workhorse.White, meanwhile, is an inferior talent to Lewis who had a largely up-and-down performance after stepping into that role in 2015.Thats why, while both Blount and White moved up my rankings following the Lewis news, the name that might warrant the closest attention these next two weeks is Tyler Gaffney, who in two preseason games has 20 carries for 95 and one touchdown. Gaffney, like White, possesses more limited skill than the men ahead of him on the depth chart, but without a clear-cut leading man on the roster, hes certainly capable of carving out a respectable role. After all, it was only two seasons ago that the Patriots gave five different running backs starts, had four different running backs post a 15-point fantasy game and failed to have a single back exceed 101 fantasy points for the season.With the news, Blount is now my No. 33 running back, tops among Patriots backs but still 12 spots behind where I initially had Lewis (21st). White, meanwhile, has moved up to 48th, though hed earn a ranking closer to Blounts in PPR formats.

OXON HILL, Md. -- Even before landing Chris Sale, the Boston Red Sox got the man they wanted -- a setup man, in fact.The AL East champions locked down their eighth-inning spot Tuesday, acquiring right-hander Tyler Thornburg from the Milwaukee Brewers in a package that included infielder Travis Shaw.Relief pitchers have been a main focus across the majors this offseason, and Thornburg was the centerpiece in the first trade at baseballs winter meetings.Hes what we were looking to try to find, Red Sox president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski said.He is somebody we like a great deal, he said. Projects to be a quality eighth-inning individual for us.The 28-year-old Thornburg will set up for closer Craig Kimbrel. Thornburg was 8-5 with 13 saves and a 2.15 ERA in 67 games for the Brewers, striking out 90 in 67 innings.Kind of a breakout year, Boston manager John Farrell said.Milwaukee also got minor league infielder Mauricio Dubon, minor league right-hander Josh Pennington and a player to be named or $100.The 26-year-old Shaw hit .242 with 16 home runs and 71 RBI last season. He mostly played third base, and also saw time at first.Its always challenging to trade major league players, especially major league players who have been as productive as Tyler was for us this past season, Brewers general manager David Stearns said, but were real excited about the players were getting, including one who we expect to impact the major league team immediately.The 22-year-old Dubon hit a combined .323 and scored 101 runs between the Single-A and Double-A levels. The 21-year-old Pennington was 5-3 with a 2.86 ERA in Class A.Thornburg took over as the Brewers closer for the last two months after Jeremy Jeffress was traded to Texas, and was equally effective against lefty and righty hitters. He held left-handers to a .130 batting average last season, and at one point retired 26 hitters in a row overall.Thornburg features a firm fastball and a curve that improved when he tinkered with his mechanics. He made barely over the major league minimum salary last season and is now under Bostons control for three years.After beginning his pro career as a starter, Thornburg became a reliever after having elbow trouble in 2014. Hes been healthy since the middle of 2015 and his arrival comes at the absolute right time, Farrell said.Thornburg said on a conference call with reporters shortly after the deal was announced that his arm settled down once his role did.I never really had a role. I ended up bouncing back and forth between starting and relieving, he said. Going into this season, the thing that makes you feel pretty good about that is I didnt have any flare-ups last year.Thornburg will join right-handers Joe Kelly, Heath Hembree and Matt Barnes and lefty Robbie Ross Jr. in the Red Sox relief corps. When Kimbrel needs a day off, Thornburg can close.Not looking to make any more additions to our bullpen, Dombrowski said.Red Sox relievers Koji Uehara, Junichi Tazawa and Brad Ziegler became free agents after the season.Dombrowski said the Red Sox asked about Thornburg last season and the Brewers didnt want to deal him. Last month, Stearns said Milwaukee was interested in Shaw, and trade talks increased during the last week.Dombrowski said he felt comfortable trading Shaw because third baseman Pablo Sandoval has recovered well from shoulder surgery that sidelined him for most of last season.Shaw hit 34 doubles last year in his first full season in the majors. He made 99 starts at third base.Dubon stole 30 bases and had 69 RBI for Class A Salem and Double-A Portland. Drafted in 2013, he is a career .306 hitter in the minors.Dubon is a promising prospect, but Boston already has All-Star Xander Bogaerts at shortstop.Were excited to be able to add him to what is a continually improving farm system, and Pennington is a nice low-level, high-velocity reliever, Stearns said.The Brewers went 73-89 this year. Earlier in the offseason, they signed free agent Eric Thames, who played two years in the majors and has spent the last three seasons in South Korea. Discount Reds Jerseys .ca! Hi Kerry, Its another day and here we are looking at another dubious hit to the head. In this case Blue Jackets forward Brandon Dubinsky elbowed Saku Koivu in the head about a second after he dished off the puck to a teammate, knocking him unconscious. Barry Larkin Jersey . There are some early surprises in the race for the Hart Trophy, but two of the contenders are the leagues biggest stars over the past decade. There are many more players in contention for the awards than just the three that Ive named, and a good or bad week can easily alter the landscape, but through the first 20 or so games of the NHL season, this is how the awards races look to me. http://www.cheapredsjerseyschina.com/dave-concepcion-jersey/ . Haas said he "felt a lot of pain" in his right shoulder when he slammed his racket to the ground in frustration after losing his serve at 3-3 in the first set. Chris Sabo Jersey .S. hockey team after paying his dues as an NHL general manager for more than three decades and giving up a lot of his free time to help USA Hockey. Anthony DeSclafani Jersey . The All-Pro lineman got the leg bent under him while trying to make a tackle during the first half of a 22-20 overtime loss at Miami on Thursday night. The medical staff initially thought hed torn the ligament, and the test a day later in Cincinnati confirmed it. COLUMBIA, Mo. -- Missouri has had two weeks to prepare for Florida. The Gators have had two weeks off, too, but only because their game against LSU was put off last weekend due to Hurricane Matthew.For Jim McElwain and the 18th-ranked Gators, homecoming weekend carries a bit of extra weight after last weeks confusion and decision to postpone the Oct. 8 game against LSU until Nov. 19 in Baton Rouge.Obviously, this was a very unique situation that occurred, McElwain said. This should be fun for us as far as coming home to a homecoming crowd and trying to restore some order and some normalcy to what we do and how we go about it.Missouri (2-3, 0-2 SEC) had its regularly scheduled bye last week after losing 42-7 at LSU.While far removed from damaging winds and sweeping floods, Missouri coach Barry Odom still felt the storms impact in his program.You look at a roster full of 115 guys, you need to know where theyre from, what their families are going through, Odom said. Even though theyre not in it, theres a mental toll that takes on you when your family is going through something and you cant do anything about it. You feel helpless to an extent, but also want to make sure that you provide everything that those guys need to help them go through the process of a tragedy like whats taking place.Missouri has nine Florida natives on its roster, including wide receiver Chris Black and backup quarterback Marvin Zanders.Now that the brunt of the storm has passed, Zanders is eager to play a game in his home state.Being like 45-50 minutes away from Gainesville, I traveled to a lot of the games, he said. Ive just been to so many games there, I just know the atmosphere. Itll just be a great experience to actually be a part of the game.All things considered, this has not been a standdard week of preparation for either team.dddddddddddd. However, both teams are excited about the prospect of returning their focus to football.I dont know at what point they decided to play or not play the game, and then, who knows when they transitioned over into preparation for us, Odom said. I know that we got a lot of really good work in last week.Missouri leads the SEC in passing with 350 yards per game, but will likely face its biggest test yet in Floridas stifling secondary. The Gators (4-1, 2-1) lead the conference in passing defense, allowing only 139 passing yards per game. Junior cornerback Teez Tabor has three interceptions and a pass breakup in four starts.Missouri quarterback Drew Lock hopes the extra preparation will translate into the Tigers first conference win of the season.I definitely think we prepared well last week. We took a lot of time watching time. More than normal, considering that we have that extra week, he said. Theres definitely a little chip on our shoulder. We know that we can do it, and we just want to prove and actually put it into action and get an SEC win.Florida will start quarterback Luke Del Rio, who started the Gators first three games of the season before missing the last two with a sprained ankle. Del Rio was 62 of 101 for 762 yards, six touchdowns and two interceptions in his first three starts.With a healthy Del Rio back at the helm of Floridas offense, Missouri defenders are also watching plenty of film.Theres more shorter, quicker, faster guys, said Missouri safety Thomas Wilson. A lot of formations. A lot of motion. Weve got to be really solid with our checks so everybodys on the same page.

ESPN senior writer Mike Sando asks league insiders to pick winners in selected games each week. Three personnel evaluators took the challenge in Week 5. The games on the docket:?Texans-Vikings, Falcons-Broncos, Bengals-Cowboys, Bills-Rams and Giants-Packers.Houston Texans at Minnesota VikingsSunday:?1 p.m. ET, CBS |?Point spread: MIN by 6.5While all three insiders took the Vikings, there was some thought the Texans might keep it closer than expected.I see it being a close game because Houston has some offensive firepower on the perimeter, one of the evaluators said, but that offensive line is shaky. I could see a 17-13 type game, but with the home field, Minnesota thrives in that arena.There was some thought Texans receiver DeAndre Hopkins could have some success, but that teammate Will Fuller would struggle against the Vikings press coverage.No one has figured out the Vikings D so far this year and I dont expect Houston to either, another insider said. The Texans O-line will be heavily outmatched and their defense will have to force turnovers on Bradford to have a chance.

Around the same time that the ICC heard the Faf du Plessis case, there emerged on social media footage of Virat Kohli and David Warner with suggestions that they might have introduced artificial substances to shine the ball. That footage, though, was not a consideration for the ICC because any Level 1 or 2 offence under the ICC Code of Conduct has to be brought to the notice of the ICC match referee within five days of the incident.Du Plessis footage - which has proved him guilty of altering the state of the ball based on the evidence that showed an artificial substance being transferred to the ball - was brought to the ICCs notice within five days, following which it reviewed the footage and then decided if it merited investigation. The charge on du Plessis was brought after the investigation. The footage of Kohli and Warner didnt even reach the stage where the ICC would decide if they merited an investigation. The Kohli footage is from the second innings of the Rajkot Test, which began on November 9. Warners is from day three of the Hobart Test, which began on November 12.Only the match umpires, CEOs of the two participating boards or the ICC CEO can report an alleged offence under the ICC Code of Conduct. Apart from those made by the ICC CEO, the other reports under Level 1 and 2 - du Plessis was a Level 2 offence - have to be made within 48 hours of the event. If the ICC CEO makes the report, it has to be done inside five days.Clause 3.2.2 of the ICC Code of Conduct says:Where the Report is lodged by the individual described in Article 3.1.3 [the ICC CEO] in relation to: 3.2.2.1 a Level 1 Offence or a Level 2 Offence that is alleged to have been committed at any time or place (whether on the field of play or otherwise), then the Report must be lodged with the Match Referee (or, where, for logistical reasons, it is impractical to lodge with the Match Referee, the ICCs Cricket Operatiions Department) within five (5) days of the commission of the alleged offenceThe Level 2 charge on du Plessis was laid by the ICC CEO David Richardson on November 18, three days after the incident.dddddddddddd Offences under Level 3 and 4 can be reported within seven days but it is fair to assume Kohli and Warner - if they merited being charged - would not have been charged for a more serious offence than du Plessis.Whether the available footage of other players allegedly introducing artificial substances to the ball brings any change to how the ICC deals with ball-tampering depends on either the MCC or the ICC cricket committee. Former players of varied nationalities - Sourav Ganguly, Jason Gillespie and Matt Prior to name a few - have said in the last week that the use of a sweet or a lolly or a mint to shine a ball is a practice widely prevalent in cricket.Amongst the players the lines are pretty clear & use of mints/sweets to shine the ball is accepted, Prior responded on Twitter when asked what the line regarding ball-tampering was.Not everyone scratches the ball on their zipper but EVERYONE uses sweets! Youd have to fine/ban a player every match, Prior went on to tweet.The ICC looks at lessons it can learn from every incident so this case should be no different. If it is deemed that a change in laws is necessary, it falls under the realm of the MCC, whose head of cricket John Stephenson was present at the hearing. The ICC Cricket Committee, likely to meet next at Lords in May 2017, discusses all cricket-related issues every year. If it feels the playing conditions need to be modified in the light of what former players say, the change is likely to be made in May. Unless it is considered an emergency, in which case they can meet over a tele-conference.

VILLANOVA, Pa. -- Villanova slipped on the national championship rings, raised the national championship banner and hit the road on a victory circuit that had almost as many stops as a Wiz Khalifa summer tour.Khalifa even made a cameo appearance at Villanova as part of a championship celebration. The Wildcats shared laughs with President Barack Obama. Rollie Massimino danced at the title party.The Wildcats were feted with parades and presentations, first pitches and first pucks, and ordinary Big East players morphed into overnight college basketball sensations.Villanova has basked in the spotlight for seven months after beating North Carolina in one of the NCAA Tournaments all-time greatest games. Its now time for the Wildcats to try to defend -- defend? -- the championship.Nobody can take the ring off our fingers, 6-foot-5 swingman Josh Hart said. Were not defending nothing. Were a team that can make a deep run in March.Again the Big East favorites and ranked fourth in the AP preseason Top 25 , the Wildcats should be on the short list of teams to beat for a championship. They went 31 years between winning it all. Theyd like to shorten the next gap to one year.Led by Hart and title game star Kris Jenkins, the Wildcats are in prime position to become the first team to go back to back since Florida in 2006 and 2007.Just cutting down that net again would be great, Hart said.The Wildcats wouldnt have to search far to find a ladder. They kept the one they used in Houston to snip the nets after they beat the Tar Heels on Jenkins buzzer-beating 3-pointer.Hart, the Big Easts preseason player of the year, will begin his senior season on The Associated Press preseason All-America team . Hart averaged 15.5 points and 6.8 rebounds last season for the Wildcats and considered turning pro.He wants two-time national champ stamped on his bio for next years NBA draft.A couple of people told me that when they were going through the draft process, they were like, `It was a storybook ending, and you can basically ride off into the sunset, Hart said. Riding off into the sunset in that way this year would be crazy.Coach Jay Wright, who is 354-157 with two Final Fours in 15 seasons at Villanova, said a national title has only boosted the Wildcats confidence.Thats not something they lose. That confidence is inside them, he said. That experience is inside them. Youre never going to take that away. Usually its harder to control your ego than it is to pump somebody up. The challenge is really our ego and staying humble and hungry and getting better.Get better?That could be scary for the rest of the Big East. The three-time defending conference champs have improved their record in the league (16-2 each of the last three years) and a top-three seed in the NCAA Tournament is usually a mere formality.Here are some of the challenges ahead for the reigning national champs:FREE OMARIOmari Spellman, a 6-foot-8 highly recruited forward, was expected to become Villanovas big man in the frontcourt this season. The NCAA declared the freshman academically ineligible for this season because Spellman did not complete his initial eligibility requirements in time.That leaves more minutes for Darryl Reynolds and freshmen Tim Delaney and Dylan Painter.But Spellman would have carried a load left by Daniel Ochefus absence and made the Wildcats more potent inside. The Villanova fans chanted Free Omari! at their national championship celebration. Hell be free -- just not until next season.WONT YOU STAYSpellman was an expected stud and sophomore guard Jalen Brunson had one-and-done potential until he eased into his team-first role in the starting lineup.Wright has never had a one-and-done player leave for the NBA and the Wildcats have made tournament runs on the strength of four-year players like Ochefu, now with the Washington Wizards, and point guard Ryan Arcidiacono.Wright said that approach wont change as champs.Were trying to find kids that appreciate what Villanova is all about, he said.

Cheap 2018 Nike Air Max Plus TN Ultra Red Black . -- The Bishops Gaiters are showing they belong among the countrys top varsity football teams.BEREA, Ohio -- The NFL is standing by Browns owner Jimmy Haslam. With Haslam embroiled in a legal scandal involving his family-owned truck-stop business, Commissioner Roger Goodell expressed his confidence in Clevelands owner and said the league has no plans to intervene or discipline him at this point. Goodell visited Clevelands training camp on Thursday to launch a program between the league and Pop Warner with USA Footballs Heads Up Football Program. Following a clinic with young players, Goodell said hes satisfied with Haslams handling of the federal investigation at Pilot Flying J, and said the league is proud to be associated with its newest owner. "Jimmy Haslam is a man of great integrity," Goodell said. "Were proud to have him as an owner in the NFL and think hes going to be a great owner for the Cleveland Browns and their fans. Hes as disappointed as anybody in what happened at Pilot J and hes working hard to fix it and correct those issues, both from a structural standpoint and to make amends." Goodell added that the league has no plans to intervene at this time. "I dont think its a matter for us at this moment," Goodell said. Haslam has been in the crosshairs of controversy since April 15, when the FBI and IRS raided Pilot Flying Js headquarters in Knoxville, Tenn., seizing documents and as part of a probe into wide-spread fraud at the company. Haslam has maintained he did not know about a program within his sales staff to cheat customers out of rebate and discount money. Seven employees have pleaded guilty to defrauding customers. Goodell said Haslam assured him he knew nothing of the rebate scam. "Hes been very clear that hes had no knowledge of that and hes been clear publicly and clear with you all," Goodell said. "He doesnt need any pushing. This company means a lot to him and hes obviously not happy about what has happened and hes determined to fix it. Jimmy is more disappointed than anybody." Pressed about what the league might do if Haslam were indicted, Goodell refused to presume anything. "Were not going to play the hypothetical game," Goodell said. "Right now hes addressing the issues. Were confident hes going to deal with it properly. Youre dealing with a bunch of hypotheticals. Were not going there." Goodell said the league was thorough in its vetting of Haslam, who was a minority owner of the Pittsburgh Steelers before buying the Browns. "This was a surprise to him and to his senior-level management," Goodell said. "From that standpoint, I dont think he was aware of it and I dont know any way we could have been aware of it. It was not disclosed to us." Goodell has a well-earned reputation as being a tough disciplinarian with players. He promised to be equally firm with any owner who breaks the law. "We actually hold ownership to a higher standard and management," he said. "I think weve proven that in what weve done. Its not just accused. As you know, in our policy, oftentimes we let thhe criminal process unfold because you need to do that to find out the real facts.dddddddddddd Sometimes we dont have all the facts and we need to do that. What we look at is multiple offenders. As you know, thats a real focus for us." Haslam and Goodell were not seen together on the field as the Browns concluded their first week of camp. Goodell spent time visiting with Hall of Fame running back Jim Brown, who has returned as an adviser with the team. Earlier in the day, Goodell and Ohio State coach Urban Meyer conducted a football safety clinic for 500 moms of youth players in Columbus. Although he was already in the league, Haslam underwent the same scrutiny as any owner, Goodell insisted. "We go through the same process on any circumstance," Goodell said. "When youre going through a controlling ownership position, thats a big step up so we dont just pass that off. We do the same vetting process. Obviously he knows people in the league after being an owner, so there were certain aspects of that which were easier. But we didnt short-circuit anything." Goodell is satisfied the investigation has not been a distraction to the Browns, who are undergoing another makeover with a new front office and coaching staff, However, Goodell did concede its troubling one of the NFLs owners is part of federal probe. "You never want to see this kind of thing happen, particularly to a partner in the league," Goodell said. "Obviously his partners care a great deal about him and as a partner they want to see him getting off to a good start. This is not what anybody intended, not anybody anticipated. But hes a man that I think everyone truly respects in the NFL." Goodell said the Browns are in good hands with Haslam, whom he believes can restore the Browns to their former glory. "Jimmy Haslam came into this with a mindset that he was going to do everything possible to get this franchise turned around in a positive direction and a team that this community will be proud of not just in any single year but consistently and to create a winner," Goodell said. "And hes brought in great talent. Hes brought in great people. He set the organization obviously in a different direction. I think thats all positive and good for the fans here and ultimately good for the NFL." NOTES: Browns coach Rob Chudzinski opened his post-practice news conference by commenting on the Indians eight-game winning streak. "Love it," he said. ... Browns WR Josh Gordon did some team drills after missing two days with tendinitis in his knee. ... Safety T.J. Ward sat out practice with a tight hamstring. ... WR David Nelson tweaked his knee while running a pass route and was kept out. He tore his ACL last season and had knee surgery in Buffalo. ...

RALEIGH, N.C. -- A young group of quickly maturing defensemen nearly pushed the Carolina Hurricanes into the playoffs last season. Now theyre hoping for a similar boost at the other end of the rink.The Hurricanes rebuilding project could take another step forward -- perhaps even back to the postseason for the first time since 2009 -- if their inexperienced forwards can play older than their ages. Among the young new faces who could play key roles on offense are 19-year-old Sebastian Aho and 22-year-old Teuvo Teravainen.If they can kind of jump in like those young (defensemen) jumped in, veteran defenseman Ron Hainsey said, the skys the limit.The storyline of last season was how that group of fresh-faced defensemen -- led by Brett Pesce, Jaccob Slavin and Noah Hanifin -- stepped up while the team continued its patient rebuild and dealt face-of-the-franchise Eric Staal at the trade deadline.The Hurricanes earned points in 12 of the first 14 games after the deadline to make a push to end the Eastern Conferences longest active postseason drought, but ultimately finished 10 points behind eighth-seeded Philadelphia.Carolina hopes all those young legs translate into playing at a faster pace.Thats the idea -- not only (skating speed) but puck speed, veteran forward Jordan Staal said. Just moving the puck, finding the right guy, working as a unit on the ice, and doing those things makes the game that much faster.Some things to know about the 2016-17 Carolina Hurricanes:WELCOME BACKThe Hurricanes will have a familiar look in goal: Cam Ward is staying with the team he led to the Stanley Cup in 2006 after signing a two-year deal worth a total of $6.6 million, $200,000 less than he made in 2015-16. Carolina also brought back 35-year-old Michael Leighton, who played with the Hurricanes from 2007-10, to join Eddie Lack in whats suddenly a crowded goalies crease.OVERTIME WOESCarolina led the league with 16 losses in either overtime or the shootout last season, and their 2-5 record in shootouts was one of the worst in the league. That only underscores the thin line between making and missing the postseason, Hainsey said, because if seven of those (OT losses) go your way, youre a playoff team.START FASTERA big reason for the Hurricanes playoff drought has been their slow starts. Carolina won just eight of its first 25 games in 2015-16, and the year before was just 10-23-4 in the first three months. The Hurricanes open the season with six straight road games before the home opener Oct. 28 against the New York Rangers, and cant afford to stumble.NO CAPTAINThe Hurricanes did not select a captain to replace Eric Staal after his trade to the Rangers, and the message has been clear: You dont need to wear a letter to be a leader. Defenseman Justin Faulk and Jordan Staal continued to wear the A as alternate captains in Erics absence, and the team is counting on those two, plus Hainsey, former rookie of the year Jeff Skinner and new addition Lee Stempniak to lead either vocally or by example. San Francisco 49ers Mike McGlinchey Jersey . This should be celebrated because it will not always be this way. With the amount of money given to players by their clubs these days, it is a wonder that so many of those teams allow the sport to continue to take away many of their assets so they can play for a different team in the middle of their season. Cheap 49ers Jerseys Free Shipping . According the Toronto Star, a knee injury will keep Sundin out of the lineup, which includes former teammates Gary Roberts, Darcy Tucker, Tie Domi and Curtis Joseph. http://www.cheap49ersjerseys.us/san-francisco-49ers-kentavius-street-jersey/ . With their top three point guards and Kobe Bryant all sidelined by injury, the Lakers signed Marshall out of the D-League on Friday before their home game against Minnesota. San Francisco 49ers D. J. Reed Jersey . Spiller left Week 3s 27-20 loss to the New York Jets with a thigh injury, but fully practiced with the team all week and expects to be ready to go on Sunday. Wholesale San Francisco 49ers Jerseys 2019 ., and Rudi Swiegers of Kipling, Sask., took sixth spot on Saturday in pairs at the NHK Trophy ISU Grand Prix figure skating competition. At this point in the season, your bench should be put together differently. The circumstances of the fantasy playoffs demand that.Drop all your upside players and anyone youre not using in your lineup. Add handcuffs to your running back, backups to key starters, a spare quarterback and one extra tight end. Dont get caught in a situation in which youre left looking toward the waiver wire for a player to start for you. However, if you do find yourself in need of a substitute player, there are some decent alternatives.Lets look at who might be available to you for Week 15.TYROD TAYLOR (QB, Bills)Bills coach Rex Ryan said Monday that Taylor gives the Bills the best chance to win, amid rumors that the team might consider starting Cardale Jones instead. The Bills face the NFL doormat Cleveland Browns in Week 15, and between Taylors running ability and the Browns inept defense, he could put up QB1 numbers if youre desperate at quarterback.JUSTIN FORSETT (RB, Broncos)Devontae Booker has played himself right out of the starting job mainly because he cant protect the quarterback. Forsett knows coach Kubiaks system and should be able to step in and perform well right away.KENNETH FARROW (RB, Chargers)Melvin Gordon is day-to-day with a hip injury. Farrow managed 55 yards on 16 carries, and he caught six passes for 23 yards. The Chargers also have Ronnie Hillman on the bench but Farrow is clearly the next man up. If youre depending on Gordon, Farrow is a must-own handcuff.BILAL POWELL (RB, Jets)Matt Forte is nursing injured knees and Powell put up 179 yards from scrimmage along with a pair of touchdowns against the 49ers in Week 14. The Dolphins allow 4.8 yards per carry to running backs as the 31st ranked run defense in the NFL. Powell should be in for another big game if Forte is out.CHARLES SIMS (RB, Buccaneers)Sims played 15 snaps with seven touches for 50 yards in his first game back from injury. The Bucs will almost certainly utilize him more against Dallas in Week 15, making him a viable play in point per reception leagues. You could do worse if you need to replace either Gordon or Forte and dont have their handcuffs.MALCOLM MITCHELL (WR, Patriots)Mitchell has been targeted 27 times and caught 21 passes for 263 yards and four touchdowns in his last four gamees.dddddddddddd Hes become one of Tom Bradys go-to receivers when a play has to be made, as 12 of his receptions have been for first downs. Hes become a reliable weekly producer for fantasy owners, so snag him if hes available.MARQUISE LEE (WR, Jaguars)Lee leads all Jaguars receivers with 728 reception yards and he has double-digit fantasy points in three of the last four games in PPR leagues. Hes also the most targeted Jaguars receiver over that span with 31 targets. At this point, hes more productive than Allen Robinson, who cant be relied upon for fantasy production anymore this season.ROBBY ANDERSON (WR, Jets)When a rookie quarterback takes the helm, we often see a previously unproductive receiver suddenly become fantasy-relevant. Thats the case with Anderson, who is Bryce Pettys first look receiver. Anderson was targeted 11 times this past week. However, given the poor status of the Jets offense overall, dont count on Anderson to be anything more than a last-ditch flex play.DONTRELLE INMAN (WR, Chargers)Inman has double-digit points in PPR formats in five of his last six games. Hes also caught a touchdown pass in each of the last three games and hes average 80 receiving yards per game over that span. Thats solid WR2/3 production thats probably sitting on your waiver wire.TAYLOR GABRIEL (WR, Falcons)The Falcons were without Julio Jones this past week and there is no guarantee hell play in Week 15. That leaves Gabriel as the de facto number one receiver. Hes caught four touchdowns over the last four games and averaged 69 receiving yards per game in that span. The Falcons face the league-worst defense of the 49ers next week. Even if Jones plays, Gabriel will very likely play a major role in the offense.JERMAINE GRESHAM (TE, Cardinals)If you need a long shot at tight end for Week 15, Gresham may be the answer. Hes had five receptions in each of the past three games and hes been targeted 23 times over that span. Only three teams have allowed more passing yards than the Saints this season. Guess who plays the Saints in Week 15?---This column was provided to The Associated Press by the Fantasy Sports Network, http://FNTSY.com Wholesale Black NFL Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys 2018 Cheap Stitched Jerseys Wholesale Black NFL Jerseys NFL Jerseys From China Cheap Jerseys Wholesale China NFL Jerseys White ' ' '

WASHINGTON -- Production from the top of the order and rookie pitcher Reynaldo Lopez fueled an early lead for the Washington Nationals. Then a relay throw saved the day for the NL contenders.Daniel Murphy hit a two-run homer and drove in four runs, Lopez pitched seven innings for his first major league win and the Washington Nationals held off the Atlanta Braves 7-6 on Saturday night.Trailing 7-1 entering the eighth, Atlanta scored one run in the eighth and four in the ninth against the bullpen. Mark Melancon came on after the Braves scored twice in the ninth and recorded the final three outs for his 33rd save.Erick Aybars two-run double against Melancon pulled the Braves within one. With no outs and Freddie Freeman on deck, Aybar tried for third base and was thrown out by shortstop Danny Espinosa, who relayed the cutoff toss from center fielder Ben Revere.The Braves challenged the call, but replay upheld the ruling.The game-saver was a relay that you work on all the time from Ben to Danny, Nationals manager Dusty Baker said. If (Danny) had a lesser arm, it would have been a runner on third.Trea Turner had three hits, including a homer and one of Washingtons three triples. Revere had the other two and drove in a run for the NL East leaders.The Nationals played their fifth straight game without injured right fielder Bryce Harper and first without former closer Jonathan Papelbon, who was released before the game to make room on the roster for Lopez (1-1). The right-handed Lopez allowed one run and five hits.It was a great performance, Baker said. We didnt want to blow that.Rob Whalen (1-1) surrendered six runs and six hits over five innings in his third big league start. The Braves have lost three of four.Lopez, one of Washingtons top prospects, didnt pitch five full innings in either of his previous big league starts, and this start opened with a thud. Freeman put Atlanta up 1-0 in the first with his 23rd home run, matching his career high. Lopez kept Atlanta scoreless from there while dancing out of occasional trouble.Its an incredible feeling especially since Im trying to help the team get a playoff spot, the rookie said of his first win.Baker said Lopez would probably get another start, but wouldnt commit.Washington took a 2-1 lead in the first with Turners leadoff triple and Murphys towering drive down the right-field line.Turner homered during a two-run third inning and scored his third run in the fifth on Reveres second triple.Papelbon was 2-4 with a 4.37 ERA and 19 saves this season. He labored in July and only pitched 2 2/3 innings after his final blown save on July 26. The Nationals acquired Melancon a few days later from Pittsburgh.THE NEW GUYRHP Jason Hursh made his major league debut in the sixth inning one day after day after he called up from Triple-A Gwinnett. The reliever allowed one run on three hits with one strikeout.WERTH STREAKINGJayson Werths sixth-inning single extended his on-base streak to 42-games. Werth owns the longest active streak in the majors and is one game behind Ryan Zimmermans club record of 43 set in 2009.TRAINERS ROOMBraves: Chris Withrow, on the DL since Aug. 8 with right elbow inflammation, had an MRI that showed no ligament damage. The right-hander will begin throwing Tuesday. ... The Braves recalled RHP Ryan Weber from Triple-A Gwinnett and optioned RHP Akeel Morris to Double-A Mississippi before the game.Nationals: Harper had an MRI for his lingering neck issue, general manager Mike Rizzo announced Saturday. It was clean, so thats good news, Rizzo said, adding there are no plans to place Harper on the DL for now. The 2015 NL MVP last played Aug. 6.UP NEXTBraves: RHP Tyrell Jenkins (2-2, 3.92 ERA) allowed only two runs in 18 innings over his last three starts.Nationals: RHP Tanner Roark (12-6, 2.88 ERA) is 4-1 with a 1.84 ERA in career starts against Atlanta.

Former Bellator fighter Jordan Parsons, who died earlier this year at the age of 25, is the first mixed martial arts fighter to be publicly diagnosed with chronic traumatic encephalopathy, or CTE.Dr. Bennet Omalu, a forensic pathologist who first discovered the degenerative disease in the brain of Pro Football Hall of Famer Mike Webster after his 2002 death, disclosed his findings on Parsons to The Boston Globe, which published a report on the diagnosis earlier Friday.Parsons (11-2), a featherweight who was three fights into his Bellator career, died on May 4, three days after being struck in a hit-and-run while crossing an intersection as a pedestrian in Delray Beach, Florida.Omalu told The Globe that it is impossible that Parsons CTE was caused by the accident because it is a chronic disease that develops over time.Parsons, who began competing in MMA at age 17 and turned pro three years later, was forced to take a full year off from competing after suffering his first loss in 2012 -- a first-round knockout loss in his eighth pro bout against Lazar Stojadinovic under the Championship Fighting Alliance banner.In his final bout, a split-decision loss to Bubba Jenkins in November 2015 at Bellator 146, Parsons was sent wobbling to the canvas after a kick to the head.The disease can be diagnosed only through postmortem brain autopsies.Omalu also discovered CTE in former pro wrestler Jon Rechner, who performed as Balls Mahoney, as well as early stages of the disease in Brian Knighton, aka Axl Rotten. Both wrestlers died within months of each other in early 2016 at the age of 44. The former tag team, named The Hardcore Chair Swingin Freaks, was best known for its run in Extreme Championship Wrestling, along with a brief stint in WWE.The diagnoses of Rechner and Knighton come at the same time that WWE faces a lawsuit filed by more than 50 former pro wrestlers who say the company is responsible for repeated head trauma that led to long-term neurological damage.Rechner, who was said to have experienced memory problems before he died of a heart attack in April, is the third professional wrestler who has been publicly identified with CTE and the first since 2009. Knighton was found dead in suburban Baltimore in February after a heroin overdose.Dr. Julia K. Kofler, a neuropathologist at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center Presbyterian, conducted the autopsies on Parsons, Rechner and Knighton. The university is affiliated with Omalus charitable foundation, which he created in 2015 before the release of the movie Concussion, a dramatization of the NFLs resistance to his CTE research.As a scientist, a physical, and a person of faith, I bet everybody involved with these sports to come together and identify the problems and find solutions, said Omalu, who told The Globe he reviewed Koflers studies and endorsed her findings.

The World Anti-Doping Agency provisionally suspended the Moscow Antidoping Center on Sunday, saying its operations must improve or a six-month ban on the facilitys accreditation will be imposed.NASHVILLE -- The Nashville Predators signed defenceman Roman Josi to a seven-year, $28 million contract Monday, securing the other piece of their top defensive line. "I think last year we saw the growth in Roman almost like no other younger player weve had, probably the best comparison I could come up with is Shea Weber and Ryan Suter," general manager David Poile said. "The irony of that of course is Roman fit in very nice into Ryans position last year." Josi replaced Suter and was teamed with Weber, whose 14-year, $110 million offer sheet was matched by Nashville last July. Poile said signing Josi was a top priority for a player who was a restricted free agent. "Just turning 23 last week, I think the potential is certainly there for Roman to be one of the best defencemen in the National Hockey League," Poile said. "Obviously, signing him to seven years ensures that we will have our top defence pairing intact for any number of years with he and our captaiin Shea Weber.dddddddddddd I think the foundation continues to get stronger here with in the last year." Since November 2011, the Predators have signed goaltender Pekka Rinne, Weber and now Josi to long-term contracts. Forward Patric Hornqvist signed a five-year deal for $21.2 million in April. Josis was Nashvilles third draft selection in 2008 at 38th overall in the second round. He had 18 points in 48 games for the Predators this season, topping what he did as a rookie in 2011-12. He ranked 19th in the NHL in total minutes played and wound up playing 23 1/2 minutes a game, a jump of more than 5 minutes. He has 34 points in 100 regular-season games. The defenceman also led Switzerland to a silver medal at the world championships -- that nations first medal in 60 years. Josi also was the first Swiss named Most Valuable Player, best defenceman and a tournament All-Star. "His growth was tremendous, and that carried over to the international stage," Poile said.

Gary Player was able to claim bragging rights for the second year running after joining Jack Nicklaus in getting the 80th Masters under way. Player and Nicklaus continued their role as honorary starters by each hitting a tee shot on the par-four first hole, with 80-year-old fitness fanatic Player - who made a hole-in-one during Wednesdays par-three contest - producing the longest drive by 20 yards from 76-year-old Nicklaus. Player tees off to begin the 80th Masters Arnold Palmer, who had been an honorary starter since 2007, was present to watch the other two members of golfs Big Three, who have 13 Masters titles between them.But the 86-year-old had already said he would be unable to hit a shot due to a shoulder problem and looked frail as he was helped to a seat on the tee. Butch Harmon and Colin Montgomerie give their thoughts on whos going to win this years Masters. To have longevity has been a special gift, said Player.

SEOUL, South Korea -- The South Korean womens professional basketball league has permanently banned a star American player who prosecutors say forged birth documents to qualify to play in the domestic competition.Womens Korean Basketball League will also permanently remove the career statistics of Chelsey Lee, who played a major role in helping KEB Hana Banks run to the playoffs in the 2015-16 season, league spokesman Kim Ilku said on Wednesday.The league also said it would annul the teams records for the season, and scrap the rule allowing teams to sign extra foreign players if they have a Korean parent or grandparent.The Miami-born Lee won the leagues rookie of the year honor for 2015-16 after averaging 15.2 points and 10.4 rebounds for KEB Hana Bank, which entered the playoffs with the second-best regular season record and lost to Woori Bank in three games in the best-of-five finals.

Teams, until last season, were also able to sign up to two extra foreign players if they had a parent or grandparent who was a South Korean national.

In a recently released clip from the documentary The Hurt Business: A Deeper Look at MMA, former UFC champion Ronda Rousey refers to mixed martial arts as the most responsible form of violence.Rousey, 29, is one of the primary subjects of the film, which opens Sept. 29. During the clip, Rousey says someones personal involvement in MMA could actually lessen the likelihood of committing other violent acts.I think a lot of people that are ignorant about [MMA] think that it promotes violence, when it really is the most responsible outlet for it, Rousey said. Its a human instinct to fight, and if you try to suppress it entirely and put everyone in a bubble-wrapped society, thats when people end up going nuts and shooting movie theaters.If any of those people that had all of that aggression built up in them had some sort of outlet, I think that we would have a lot more societal health.Rousey (12-1) is a former Olympic bronze?medalist in judo who made a successful transition to professional MMA in 2011. Fighting out of Glendale, California, she became the first woman to sign with the UFC in 2012.She defended the promotions 135-pound bantamweight championship six times before surrendering the belt to Holly Holm in a knockout loss at UFC 193 in November. Rousey has not returned to the Octagon since the loss, but UFC president Dana White has repeatedly said he is hopeful she could return before the end of the year.Before her loss, Rousey was seemingly invincible in competition. In February 2015, she set a record for the fastest finish in UFC title-fight history by defeating Cat Zingano via armbar in 14 seconds. UFC featherweight champion Conor McGregor broke that record nine months later by knocking out Jose Aldo in 13 seconds.Its not violence for the sake of violence, Rousey said. The word art is in it for a reason. When I go in there, yeah, Im fighting, but really what Im trying to do is outsmart the other person. Its a puzzle to be solved.Im not going in there and spazzing out, swinging my hands -- lifting weights so I can swing my hands even harder. Its more mental and tactical than anything else, and I think its the purest, most beautiful sport in the world.In addition to profiling Rousey, The Hurt Business: A Deeper Look at MMA also focuses on former UFC champions Jon Jones, Rashad Evans and Holm, according to a release. It is directed by Vlad Yudin. Adidas NMD R2 Uomo . Murray beat Sam Querrey 7-6 (5), 6-7 (3), 6-1, 6-3 to clinch Britains opening-round victory against the United States on Sunday at Petco Park. "Im proud of the way Im playing just now, because I had to do a lot of work to get back to where I want to be," Murray said after celebrating with his teammates on the red clay court in a temporary stadium in left field of the downtown home of baseballs San Diego Padres. Adidas NMD R2 Primeknit Profondo Blu . Despite dominating possession, Schalke needed an own goal from Nicolas Hoefler for the breakthrough a minute before the interval.

Each of Houstons starters scored in double figures as the Rockets improved to 2-0 against the Spurs this season, with both victories coming on the road. They also moved within 3 1/2 games of San Antonio (22-7) for the lead the Southwest Division. Adidas Gazelle Uomo Bianche .C. -- Todd Fiddler scored a hat trick, including the overtime goal, as the Prince George Cougars survived an 8-7 win against the Kamloops Blazers in Western Hockey League play Sunday. Steven Adams just watched his financial future become a whole lot brighter.The fourth-year big man from New Zealand signed a four-year contract extension with the Oklahoma City Thunder reportedly worth $100 million. Thats approximately $139 million in New Zealand and $130 million in Australia.Adams emerged as a core player for the Thunder with a strong postseason performance in 2015-16, and the team will rely on him to play an even bigger role this season. The extension allows the Thunder to lock up Adams through the 2020-21 season and keeps him from hitting the open market as a restricted free agent next summer.This got us thinking about the top earners among Aussie and Kiwi athletes in American team sports. Heres the hierarchy, based on estimated earnings for the current season:Andrew Bogut, Dallas Mavericks, NBA$11 million US - $14.4 million AU - $15.4 million NZThe former No. 1 overall draft pick from Melbourne turns 32 later this month, and hes in the final year of a three-year, $36 million pact he originally signed with Golden State. Bogut is the NBAs all-time leader in scoring and rebounding among Australian players. He eclipsed the $100 million (US) mark in career earnings in 2015-16 and was traded to Dallas during the offseason.Matthew Dellavedova, Milwaukee Bucks, NBA$9.6 million US - $12.5 million AU - $13.4 million NZDelly signed a four-year, $38 million pact with Milwaukee after winning the NBA championship with Cleveland last season. If the early results are any indication, he is on his way to establishing career highs in minutes, points and assists this season. The fourth-year pro from Maryborough, Victoria, is the career scoring leader at Saint Marys College in California.Aron Baynes, Detroit Pistons, NBA$6.5 million US - $8.5 million AU - $9.1 million NZThe 6-foot-10 big man, who was born in Gisborne, New Zealand, but grew up in Cairns, Queensland, is in the second season of a three-year, $20 million deal with Detroit. He began his career with three seasons in San Antonio, where he and Australian guard Patty Mills helped the Spurs win the 2014 NBA championship.Ben Simmons, Philadelphia 76ers, NBA$5.9 million US - $7.7 million AU - $8.2 million NZThe rookie out of LSU has yet to make his NBA debut because of a foot injury, but Simmons will earn nearly $6 million this season after being drafted No. 1 overall by Philadelphia. Simmons, who grew up in Newcastle, New South Wales, is recovering from surgery and is expected to miss a few more months of action before taking the court for the 76ers.Dante Exum, Utah Jazz, NBA$3.9 million US - $5.1 million AU - $5.4 million NZThe 6-foot-6 guard from Melbourne was the No. 5 overall pick in the 2014 NBA draft, and hes paid as such. Exum is back on the court for the Jazz this season after missing all of 2015-16 with a torn ACL. Utah recently exercised its team option to retain him next season for $5 million.Patty Mills, San Antonio Spurs, NBA$3.6 million US - $4.7 million AU - $5 million NZThe 6-foot, 185-pound guard from Canberra preceded Dellavedova at Saint Marys and was drafted in the second round by Portland in 2009. Mills joined the Spurs in 2011 and is now in the final season of a three-year, $13 million contract with San Antonio. Now playing in his eighth pro season, Mills trails only Bogut (11 seasons) and Luc Longley (10 seasons) in terms of NBA career longevity among Australians.Steven Adams, Oklahoma City Thunder, NBA$3.1 million U.S. - $4.1 million AU - $4.4 million NZUntil Adams new deal kicks in next season, he will have to scrape by on this salary, based on the team option the Thunder picked up in October 2015. Adams, who grew up in Rotorua and Wellington, will be only 28 when his recently signed extension expires in 2021, at which point an even more lucrative payday is possible.Brad Wing, New York Giants, NFL$2.6 million US - $3.4 million AU - $3.6 million NZThe third-year pro from Melbourne by way of LSU reeceived a $2 million signing bonus from the Giants to go with a 2016 base salary of $600,000.dddddddddddd Thats pretty good scratch for booting around the pigskin.Joe Ingles, Utah Jazz, NBA$2.2 million US - $2.9 million AU - $3.1 million NZThe 6-foot-8 forward from the Adelaide area is in his third season with the Jazz after two seasons with Barcelona and one with Maccabi Tel Aviv in the Euroleague. Ingles and his wife, Renae, welcomed twins in July, just prior to his joining the Boomers in Rio de Janeiro for the Olympics.Adam Gotsis, Denver Broncos, NFL$1.5 million US - $2 million AU - $2.1 million NZThe 6-foot-4, 287-pound defensive tackle from Melbourne by way of Georgia Tech has four tackles so far this season for the first-place Broncos. As a second-round draft pick, he received a signing bonus in excess of $1 million to go with his rookie base salary of $450,000.Lachlan Edwards, New York Jets, NFL$525,000 US - $685,000 AU - $730,000 NZThe rookie punter from Melbourne by way of Sam Houston State is another member of the new wave of Australian punters in the NFL and college football. If he remains on the Jets active roster all season, he will earn his entire $450,000 base salary to go along with a signing bonus of approximately $75,000.Liam Hendriks, Oakland Athletics, MLB$520,000 US - $680,000 AU - $730,000 NZThe 27-year-old, right-handed pitcher from Perth began the season as the only Aussie in the major leagues, but he was eventually joined by the three MLB players listed below. Hendriks has played six MLB seasons with Oakland, Toronto and Minnesota, and he posted a 3.76 ERA with 71 strikeouts and 14 walks in 64? innings this season.Paul Lasike, Chicago Bears, NFL$450,000 US - $590,000 AU - $630,000 NZThe 5-foot-11, 258-pound fullback from Auckland, New Zealand, made his NFL debut this season after spending 2015 on Chicagos practice squad. He recently returned to the practice squad -- sort of the NFL equivalent to flying standby -- after spending five weeks on the active roster. Even if he spends the remainder of the season on the practice squad, he will come close to earning his full base salary of $450,000.Peter Moylan, Kansas City Royals, MLB$390,000 US - $510,000 AU - $540,000 NZThe 10-year veteran from Attadale, Western Australia, spent around 140 days on the Royals roster this season, earning much of MLBs $507,500 minimum salary. Moylan posted a solid 3.43 ERA with 34 strikeouts and 16 walks in 50 games this year at age 37.Warwick Saupold, Detroit Tigers, MLB$190,000 US - $250,000 AU - $265,000 NZThe Perth native was on the Tigers active roster or disabled list for about 70 days this season, so this figure estimates a prorated portion of the MLB minimum salary -- not including what he earned during his time with Triple-A Toledo. The 26-year-old, right-handed pitcher opened his major league career with three consecutive scoreless appearances.James Beresford, Minnesota Twins, MLB$70,000 US - $90,000 AU - $100,000 NZThe infielder from Melbourne was called up to the majors on Sept. 6 and remained with the Twins for the rest of the season. He earned nearly one month of pay at the MLB minimum rate, plus more than four months at Triple-A Rochester. He made his MLB debut on Sept. 10 and recorded his first career hit with a single off Cleveland right-hander Shawn Armstrong.Several individual-sport athletes also cleared seven-figure earnings this year -- not including endorsements. Golf stars Lydia Ko ($2.5 million US) of New Zealand and Australians Jason Day ($8 million US) and Adam Scott ($6.5 million US) recorded handsome incomes this past season. In tennis, Nick Kyrgios ($1.8 million US) and Bernard Tomic ($1.2 million US) were the top Aussie earners.Sources: ESPN Roster Management System database, ESPN.com, sports-reference.com, spotrac.com Wholesale Black NFL Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys 2018 Cheap Stitched Jerseys Wholesale Black NFL Jerseys NFL Jerseys From China Cheap Jerseys Wholesale China NFL Jerseys White ' ' '

Los Angeles Rams coach Jeff Fisher took ownership of the poor state of his football team late Monday afternoon, but then he brought up the logistics he believes have affected it.Im disappointed with the record, Fisher said, but I dont think anybody really knows what weve been going through.Fisher, whose team is 4-7 after Sundays 49-21 thrashing at the hands of the New Orleans Saints,?was referencing the move from St. Louis that was followed by a heavy regular-season travel schedule that included a trip to London and several trips to the East Coast.Weve been through a lot, Fisher said. Its not an excuse, but weve been through more than any other team in the National Football League this offseason -- the moves and the travel and all those things. Were dealing with those as best as we can.The Rams have lost six of seven games for the first time since 2011, the year before Fisher took over. Their next three opponents, the New England Patriots, Atlanta Falcons and Seattle Seahawks,?are a combined 23-9-1, which means itll be difficult for the Rams to finish this season with the 7-9 record that has been their staple under Fisher.Its my responsibility, Fisher said. Ultimately, its my responsibility. The win-loss record falls on my shoulders.Fishers Rams have been no better than 7-8-1, though the franchise lost 65 of 80 games in the five years leading up to his first season. Fisher has kept the Rams competitive, but they have been unable to progress beyond mediocrity and have been plagued by penalties and a sluggish offense. Since 2012, the Rams are first in the NFL in total penalties (691) and last in yards per game (309.1).Now Fisher -- along with general manager Les Snead -- is heading into the final month of his current contract, with no extension announced. The expectation remains that Fisher will return next season, but his future seemingly gets cloudier by the day. Fans in Los Angeles and those remaining in St. Louis continue to clamor for him to be fired.Im not pleased with where we are right now, Fisher said. Each year, each roster is different. We took over a 2-14 team, and we built it. We were competitive. Weve had quarterback issues. You guys can do the math. You know how many different quarterbacks weve played with. Weve moved on. Were moving forward with?Jared [Goff]. Weve got a roster that we need to continue to upgrade.Im disappointed with the record. I dont think anybody really knows what weve been going through, but Im into this week. Im into the Patriots. Im disappointed in last week, into this week and moving forward. As I told you guys before, I dont look over my shoulder. Nike Air Vapormax Plus Sunset For Sale .

Sussex 527 (Wells 120, Brown 113, Jordan 52, M Taylor 4-130) beat Gloucestershire 367 (Klinger 129, Mustard 71, Miles 56, Magoffin 5-73) and 158 (Taylor 56, Jordan 4-36) by an innings and two runs Scorecard Captain Luke Wright has said Sussex are keen for out-of-contract Ireland batsman Ed Joyce to stay with the county but his future will be decided at the end of the season.Its dependent on Joycey, Wright said after his side wrapped up an innings victory over Gloucestershire. He has huge ambitions with Ireland, and wants to achieve Test status with them. I think he is going to wait until the end of the season and see how he feels.Joyce has scored 955 Championship runs at 73 this season, including three tons, and his departure would leave a huge hole in Sussexs top order. Joyces young family have moved back to Ireland, but he remains five short of his stated ambition of 50 first-class centuries, which may play a part in his decision.In my mind hes still the best batsman in county cricket and Id have him as long as hes playing the game. A lot will come down to how he feels, whether he wants to continue playing county cricket, but Ill be keeping on having a word in his ear trying to get him to stay.Sussex wasted no time completing their second win of the season in the Specsavers County Championship, requiring just 17 balls on the final day to take the last of the nine Gloucestershire wickets they needed to win by an innings and two runs.Sussex had taken total control of the game on the second and third days, as centuries from Luke Wells and Ben Brown built a 160-run lead on first innings. With Liam Norwell absent with a head injury sustained while batting on the second morning, Sussex only required nine second innings wicket and, either side of tea on Monday, they picked up eight of them for just 112.In their way stood the Taylor brothers, Jack and Matt, who - even with an extra eight overs taken on the third day - made it to stumps just 11 runs behind, with the former smiting three sixes in his 52 not out.On the final morning, their resistance briefly continued, with Matt punching Steve Magoffin through the covers for four in the first over, and Jack - who looked to farm the strike - hitting Chris Jordan down the ground for four more.But in Magoffins second over, Jack Taylor looked to clear the infield and smash Gloucestershire into the lead, but was bowled for 56 to become the Australians seventh wicket of the match. Jordan finished with 4 for 36 in the second innings to go with his 52 runs.Sussex gained the maximum 24 points from the match, while Gloucestershire took six. Both teams have five games left in the season, and Sussex remain unbeaten, although nine of their matches have ended in draws. Michael Dickson Hoodie .
