EUGENE, Ore. Jim Thome Jersey . -- Pick a distance, any distance, and Galen Rupp can run it.Already qualified for the marathon, Rupp added the 10,000 meters to his list Friday night at Olympic trials. Next up, hell try to make it at 5K, as well.If -- more like when -- that happens, he says hell choose two of the three to run in Rio. Racing in all three would simply be too much, even for Rupp.Rupp is leaning toward running the 10,000, especially given the way he won at trials. He threw surge after surge at Shadrack Kipchirchir and Leonard Korir -- both of whom run for the Armys World Class Athlete Program in Fort Carson, Colorado -- and finished to a loud ovation. No surprise, since Rupp rose to prominence at Hayward Field as a member of the Oregon Ducks.It was tough. It wasnt easy. I was pushing pretty hard, said Rupp, who finished in 27 minutes, 55.04 seconds, more than 6 second clear of Kipchirchir. I made a couple surges with five or six laps to go, kind of testing out Shadrack. He was always on me. He was right there. I wanted to make it a tough race.Now, Rupp will recover. Hes got the first round of the 5,000 on Monday and -- if he qualifies -- the final five days later.Rupp won the Olympic marathon trials during his debut at that distance in February in Los Angeles. Nothing seems to slow him down.But it has been tough to balance the training between the marathon and 5,000. For the marathon, he goes on more long runs. For the 5,000, he does more speed work.We run a fine line, do a lot of miles -- a lot of long, hard runs, Rupp explained. Its hard to recover from. Its really hard to do that, come back and do the speed work. Its been a little bit of a learning process, sometimes coming back too soon and cant hit a workout. Were always adjusting and figuring it out.The 30-year-old Rupp is the Olympic silver medalist in the 10,000 meters.What impresses me most is his work ethic, his mental toughness, his coach, Alberto Salazar, said. All the pressure and limelight on him, sometimes bad, sometimes good. He doesnt care. He puts it aside.As for his say in the matter of what races Rupp will run, Salazar wants to wait and see.Hell make a decision between 5,000 and the marathon. He cant run all three, Salazar said. He does everything right. He dedicates his life (to running). The only thing that ever takes him away from running for an instant is his family. Thats it. Yan Gomes Jersey . Now, correct me if Im wrong but I saw one official distinctly pointing at the net indicating a good goal but after an inconclusive review they overturned the goal.  Shouldnt the ruling on the ice (good goal) stand after an inconclusive review?  Why was this overturned?  James Veaudry Pembroke, ON --  Hey Kerry, Youll get a lot of these, but why was the Montreal goal against Nashville Saturday night overturned? Eller puts the puck on net and the on ice ruling from the ref behind the net is a Montreal goal. Ricky Vaughn Indians Jersey . "I was fortunate to play many years at this level with a great organization and unbelievable teammates," said Hejduk in a statement. http://www.baseballindiansmlb.com/authentic-trevor-bauer-indians-jersey/ . Mickelson barely made the cut but had the best round of the day with nine birdies and an eagle coupled with two bogeys to sit two shots behind leader Craig Lee of Scotland. Lee shot a 69 for a 12-under 204 total. "I just love the fact I am in contention and have an opportunity in my first tournament of the year here in Abu Dhabi," Mickelson said. EVIAN-LES-BAINS, Germany -- Jerome Boateng has been a central figure in Germanys advance to the quarterfinals of the European Championship without conceding a goal, so its a huge relief for his team that a calf injury wont keep him out of Saturdays quarterfinal against Italy.Boateng has helped set the tone for his side at Euro 2016 -- at both ends of the field.It all started with a spectacular goal-line clearance against Ukraine when Germany was only 1-0 up. Germany went on to win the match 2-0 but it could have all been so different had Ukraine got on level terms.Boateng then helped contain his Bayern Munich teammate Robert Lewandowski in the scoreless draw with Poland, and marshalled the backline in the 1-0 victory over Northern Ireland in the final group game.Boatengs defensive strengths are well-chronicled.Whats not is his scoring prowess.But against Slovakia in the round of 16, the 27-year-old central defender gave his sides misfiring attack a helping hand by opening the scoring with his first international goal in 63 appearances.Boateng has been spoken of as a potential player of the tournament. Hes not convinced.Sure, a defender can also score a goal or play a good game, but I think it will always stay like that that, the offensive plaayers are more in focus, he said Thursday at the teams tournament base in Evian-les-Bains. Tyler Naquin Jersey. There have been some concerns that a calf injury would mean he miss the encounter with Italy.The calf is very well and good for Saturday, he said.Boatengs participation in Euro 2016 had been in doubt earlier this year after he suffered a muscle injury to his left leg in January.The long layoff, though, has clearly not been a hindrance.Boateng insists that he wont change the way he plays even though another yellow card would see him suspended from any potential semifinal against either France or Iceland.Ill go in like I always go in, he said.Boatengs inspired performances at Euro 2016 have come just weeks after he found himself in the middle of a racism controversy off the field.A top member of a rising German nationalist party reportedly told a national newspaper that many people wouldnt want to live next to Boateng, who was born in Berlin to a father from Ghana.The remarks drew widespread protests and prompted fans to unfurl a banner reading Jerome be our neighbor! at Germanys friendly against Slovakia last month.
