COOPERSTOWN, N. Cheap Air Max 90 .Y. -- Rod Carew will gladly welcome Ichiro Suzuki into the Hall of Fame fraternity when the time comes. But baseball has only one career hit leader in Carews estimation, and his name is Pete Rose.Suzuki, 42, has 2,996 hits in the major leagues and is likely to become the 30th member of the 3,000 club during the Miami Marlins current homestand. Between Suzukis tenure with the Orix Blue Wave in Japan and his production over 16 seasons with the Seattle Mariners, New York Yankees and the Marlins, he has 4,274 hits compared to the 4,256 that Rose accumulated over 24 MLB seasons.I have tremendous respect for Ichiro, Carew said. For a young man to come here in such a short time and get 3,000 hits, thats saying something. But you cant take it away from Pete. Pete is the Hit King here in this country, and you cant add the two [leagues] together to make Ichiro the best hitter there was. Thats the way I feel.Carew, 70, won seven batting titles and made 18 All-Star teams over 19 seasons with the Minnesota Twins and California Angels. Hes a .328 career hitter who ranks 24th in MLB history with 3,053 hits, and he made it to Cooperstown on his first try in 1991. During the recent All-Star Game in San Diego, MLB named the American League batting championship for Carew and dedicated the National League award to Tony Gwynn, who captured eight career batting titles.Even though Carew regards Rose as baseballs Hit King, he thinks Suzuki has built a strong enough case to merit induction to Cooperstown once he becomes eligible for the shrine.Ichiros the same type of hitter I was, Carew said. We used the whole field to hit. He could run, so he beat out infield hits. He bunted. He took advantage of the pitchers when they threw him a pitch. You cant take it away from him. Hes done a heck of a job since hes been here.Carew, who nearly died from a massive heart attack while playing golf in September, appeared at a news conference in Cooperstown on Saturday in conjunction with the Heart of 29 campaign to promote heart health. He wears a portable machine called a left ventricular assist device to keep his heart pumping, and said he will eventually need a heart transplant.Im looking for a 21-year-old heart, Carew said. I want to come back and hit some line drives. Wholesale Air Max 95 . -- Three close looks at the bucket, three misses. Cheap Air Max Online . Vaives lawyer Trevor Whiffen claims the former 50-goal man wasnt provided with a copy of the claim beforehand and that he would not have agreed to the allegations made against the NHL had he been asked to review its contents. http://www.airmax2018outlet.us/ . Manuel was offered a position the day he was fired. He accepted earlier this week and the team made the announcement Friday.JOHANNESBURG, South Africa -- A bearded and much skinnier Oscar Pistorius was "overcome with emotion" as he pulled on his carbon fiber running blades for his first track training since the killing of girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp, his agent says. With a short beard and a blue hooded Nike sports top, the lean-looking double-amputee Olympian did some light jogging at his first formal session in around five months on Thursday. He then described his return to a regular track routine for the first time since he fatally shot Steenkamp at his home on Feb. 14 as "bittersweet" to his agent, Peet van Zyl. "It was a very emotional experience for him to put the blades back on, to walk back onto the track, get the smell of the track," Van Zyl, who went to the track at the University of Pretoria with Pistorius, told The AP on Friday. "It was tough for him. He said to me it was like a bittersweet feeling and emotion for him to be back on the track." Pistorius return to training was seen in a brief video clip released by his family. In the footage, which is around two minutes long, the athlete is first sitting on a chair at his usual training track at the university pulling on his running blades. He then does some light jogging on the sunbathed track and, finally, wipes his face with both hands as he walks off the track, hinting at the emotion Van Zyl described. Pistorius was charged with premeditated murder for Steenkamps Valentines Day shooting death. He denies murder and says he shot his girlfriend accidentally, believing she was an intruder in his house. Pistorius next court appearance is Aug. 19, when prosecutors may indict him and a date could be set for the start of his murder trial, possibly in September or October. He faces a life sentence with a minimum of 25 years in prison if he is convicted by a judge of premeditated murder. There is no trial by jury in South Africa. South African police said the investigation into Pistorius shooting of Steenkamp was "at an advanced stage," but declined to give further details, saying they "cannot be drawn into discussing the merits of the case." Prosecutors have said police will conclude their investigations by August and continue to probe the circumstances of Pistorius pre-dawn killing of Steenkamp, whom he shot multiple times through a toilet cubicle door. In thee last few months, the 26-year-old Pistorius has lost weight -- about 10-12 kilograms -- and spends much of his time doing household chores at the Pretoria home of his uncle as he awaits his murder trial, Van Zyl said. Cheap Air Max Online. Pistorius looked much leaner in the video footage than he was at the London Olympics and Paralympics last year. Pistorius telephoned Van Zyl and his coach, Ampie Louw, about a week ago to say he was ready to train again. "(He) said, Guys I think Im ready to resume training," Van Zyl said. Van Zyl and Pistorius family, who also released a statement along with the footage, said Pistorius return to regular training was to help his own mental process ahead of a likely lengthy murder trial, and he was still not planning on competing anytime in 2013. "His focus at this time remains entirely on the court case," the Pistorius family said. "His family and those close to him have encouraged him to spend a few hours a week on the track to assist him in finding the necessary mental and emotional equilibrium to process his trauma and prepare for the trial." Thursdays visit was the second time Pistorius has been seen on the university track since he killed Steenkamp. A March sighting spurred speculation he was back in training, which was denied by his family, who described him then as being in "an extremely traumatized state" and not willing to contemplate training at that time. Then, Pistorius was photographed by a schoolgirl on a cellphone while he was walking on the track, but he made that visit without the knowledge of anyone else, his agent said, and waited for a group of athletes he took to the track to leave before he put on his blades and just walked around. His new routine will involve around three to four sessions a week and be run by Louw, Pistorius longtime coach and the man who introduced him to athletics when Pistorius was a teenager and still at school. Van Zyl said Pistorius had discovered he was desperately missing running and training. "I think the emotions yesterday show how much he really did miss being back on the track and being able to run," Van Zyl said. "Obviously with the world championships, both Paralympic world championships and IAAF world championships getting closer, its even tougher for him not be running or training or competing."

A young apprentice jockey will attempt to become the first female rider to win the Derby on Saturday but the chance to make history will belong to Ana O’Brien, who will ride The Anvil for her father, Aidan, and not Gina Mangan, whose hopes of riding the 1,000-1 outsider Diore Lia were dashed by the British Horseracing Authority on Wednesday evening. Ana will join her brother Donnacha in the Derby, which was twice won by their older brother Joseph, in 2012 and 2014, before weight problems forced his early retirement. Donnacha will ride Venice Beach, who finished one and a quarter lengths and a nose in front of The Anvil in the Chester Vase last month, while Wings Of Eagles, the horse that split them on the Roodee, will http://www.panthersfootballprostore.com/james-bradberry-jersey-for-sale-c-25.html be ridden by Padraig Beggy. Talking Horses: Gina Mangan 'crying up in the yard' after being barred from Derby Read more As expected, Ryan Moore, the trainer’s principal jockey, will take the mount on Cliffs Of Moher, the winner of the Dee Stakes at Chester’s May Festival, while his six-strong team will be completed by Capri (Seamie Heffernan) and Douglas Macarthur (Colm O’Donoghue). Ana O’Brien will be the first woman to ride in the Derby since Hayley Turner, who finished last of nine behind Camelot in 2012 on the 25-1 chance Cavaleiro. She will also be only the third to ride in the Classic in its long history after Turner and Alex Greaves, who also finished last when she rode Portuguese Lil, at 500-1, in 1996. Like Mangan, who was denied the chance to ride Diore Lia owing to her inexperience, Ana O’Brien has never ridden at Epsom, and she will be riding in Britain for only the fourth time in her career. O’Brien has vastly more overall racing experience than Mangan, having ridden 58 winners since taking her first ride in 2012. Mangan has only a solitary success to her name, at Roscommon in 2009. The Anvil, a son of the 2001 Derby winner Galileo, is top-priced at 50-1 for the Authentic Jonathan Stewart Womens Jersey Derby, which has not been won by a horse at double-figure odds since High-Rise’s success at 20-1 in 1998. Cracksman, from John Gosden’s stable in Newmarket, is the joint-favourite for the race with Cliffs Of Moher at around 9-2, and the 19-strong field will be the largest for the Classic since Kris Kin defeated 19 others in 2003. Advertisement Saturday’s field will also include Diore Lia, whose owner, Richard Aylward, had suggested on Wednesday the horse could be scratched as a result of Mangan being denied the ride. The apprentice, who is attached to the yard of Diore Lia’s trainer John Jenkins, had initially been told by the BHA there was no reason why she should not take part at Epsom but the regulator performed a U-turn, telling Aylward it would not accept Mangan’s declaration to ride. Aylward reconsidered his too, moreover, and decided to declare the lowly rated filly and she will be ridden by another apprentice, Paddy Pilley. He has had 34 winners and has raced at Epsom four times, including two rides over the full http://www.officialathleticshop.com/authentic-17-yonder-alonso-jersey.html Derby trip of 12 furlongs. The owner said he hopes to raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital via Diore Lia’s run in the Derby, and will donate any prize money to the cause in the unlikely event that Diore Lia finishes in the first six. “Poor old Gina is badly scarred from what the BHA have done to her. She’s in a terrible mess and can’t work or anything,” Aylward, who also bred the filly, said on Thursday. “Our story needs telling because I’ve been left very, very upset about what has gone on and I feel so sorry for Gina. “The Queen is a patron of Great Ormond Street Hospital and it’s my intention to speak to her about what has happened when she comes in the parade ring before the Derby. We’ve had contributions from as far away as America for our charity, and we’re hoping it will now take off because of all this that has gone on.” The BHA’s decision to exclude Mangan from the Derby found support on Thursday from Moore, a dual winner of the Classic, and the riders’ trade body, the Professional Jockeys’ Association. Moore told his blog, on the Betfair website, the BHA had “done the right thing by the horse … and while Gina Mangan may not appreciate it at the moment, they have done the right thing by the jockey, too”. The PJA said in a statement that the BHA had been in an “unenviable” position but had taken the right decision. “I have spoken to Gina this morning and she is obviously very disappointed,” Paul Struthers, the PJA chief executive, said. “She was very much looking forward to the opportunity http://www.officialcelticsproshop.com/Al_Horford_Jersey having read there was no barrier to her participation. Her reaction to the disappointment was admirable and the attitude she has shown will no doubt stand her in good stead as she pursues her career as jockey. “We have enormous sympathy for Gina and the position she has found herself in, having been thrust into the spotlight. Yet we also recognise there were concerns raised by other PJA members about such an inexperienced jockey, with no previous experience of riding at Epsom, taking the mount on an outclassed horse in the biggest, arguably most important, flat race of the year. “The BHA were in an unenviable position and in the circumstances we believe they have taken the right decision, albeit in hindsight it would have been far preferable not to have given Gina the public green light to ride earlier in the week

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. -- The Minnesota Vikings designated running back Adrian Peterson for a return from injured reserve on Wednesday, and cleared Peterson to practice as part of his recovery from a torn meniscus.Peterson had said in a radio interview on Monday he was hoping to return on Dec. 24 against the Green Bay Packers, but added he would have a better idea of where his body was after practicing, and he didnt rule out the possibility of playing on Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts.Asked on Wednesday whether Peterson might be able to play on Sunday, Zimmer said, I dont know. Well see.?The coach said Peterson would be a full participant in practice this week but said he didnt know whether the team would get an emotional lift from Peterson returning.Asked if a Peterson return would lift his own spirits, Zimmer said, I dont know. I havent seen anything yet.The NFLs leading rusher a year ago, Peterson had gained 50 yards on 31 carries before tearing the meniscus in his right knee on Sept. 18 against the Green Bay Packers. He opted foor a full repair of his meniscus on Sept. Jabrill Peppers Jersey. 22, which threatened to end his season.But sources told ESPN in November that a return for the Colts or Packers game was possible, and Peterson said last week he was feeling almost back to where he was before surgery.His return would provide some logistical puzzles for a Vikings offense that has shifted since the running backs injury.According to ESPN Stats & Information, only six teams have been in the shotgun more than the Vikings since Pat Shurmur replaced Norv Turner as the teams offensive coordinator in Week 9, and the team has thrown the ball on 226 of its 370 plays in that time.Right now, were not going to worry about those things, Zimmer said.When the time comes, well talk about the things he does. Its like any player that comes back: You try to figure out what they can do well, how you can fit it into the system and the things you need to change.

Cornerback Ryan Reid and No. Chad Kelly Womens Jersey . 11 Baylor will enjoy their upcoming open date a little more than the last one.Reid returned the first of his two interceptions 64 yards for a touchdown , quarterback Seth Russell accounted for four touchdowns playing only a half, and Shock Linwood earned the school record for career rushing touchdowns in the Bears 49-7 win over Kansas on Saturday.We were just trying to make a statement. A lot of people they thought that Iowa State game, thats who we are, which its not, Reid said, referring to a 45-42 win two weeks ago in the last game when Baylors only lead came on a game-ending field goal. We had to make a statement with our next game, and Kansas was in the way.Baylor (6-0, 3-0 Big 12), which now has another open date, led 42-0 after Russells last pass, a 4-yard TD to Ishmael Zamora with 1:45 left in the first half. KD Cannon, who missed the last game with a groin injury, turned a short pass into a 59-yard score.A week after almost beating TCU at home, Kansas (1-5, 0-3) had five turnovers that led to 21 points for the Bears. The Jayhawks have lost 15 Big 12 games in a row, and dropped 36 consecutive road games since winning at UTEP seven years ago.We made some strides last week, and then today we took several steps back. Thats my responsibility, second-year Kansas coach David Beaty said of the Jayhawks offense, which had only 217 total yards.Russell had two touchdown runs in the first quarter, with Reids TD return coming between those.Now 14-0 when starting for Baylor, Russell was 9-of-22 passing for 144 yards. He led the Bears with 68 yards rushing, and got flipped after he leaped in the end zone for a 26-yard TD when converting a fourth-and-3 to make it 21-0 in the first quarterLinwoods 4-yard score on the first play after a Kansas fumble was his 36th career rushing touchdown and broke a tie with Alfred Anderson for the most in school history. Linwood was already the career rushing leader for the Bears.Reid returned his second pick 52 yards to the Jayhawks 19, but Baylor then had the first of its three missed field goals.THE TAKEAWAYKansas: Its not a good day when the highlight is the 82-yard punt by Cole Moos , who had the wind to his back and had the ball roll to the Baylor 3 after a great bounce off the turf. Sure, the Jayhawks were five-touchdown underdogs, but this was a bit of a backward step. They were also big underdogs a week in the one-point loss to TCU when they missed three field goals in the fourth quarter.Baylor: While already bowl eligible for the seventh consecutive season, and the only FBS team to be 6-0 for the fourth year in a row, the Bears havent really been tested. Their only opponent with a winning record theyve played is Oklahoma State, which had two fourth-quarter drives end inside the 5. The other opponents went into Saturday with a combined 5-22 record, and that doesnt include Kansas latest loss. The Bears will get tested, still with No. 19 Oklahoma and No. 20 West Virginia on the road.We know that the lions share of our schedule lies in front of us, and the toughest part is the second half, acting head coach Jim Grobe said. Our guys realize that were happy to be 6-0 right now, but we know positively that were going to have to play great down the stretch.BLANK FINISHESBaylor still hasnt allowed a point in the fourth quarter this season. The Bears didnt score either in the final 15 minutes Saturday, but have a 45-0 edge in that quarter this season.POLL IMPLICATIONSDepending on how voters judge the losers of two games matching Top 10 teams, far-from-proven Baylor could move up into the Top 10 for the first time this season. The Big 12 hasnt had a Top 10 team since Oklahoma was third in the preseason poll, then dropped 10 spots after a season-opening loss at Houston.UP NEXTKansas: Plays four of its next five games at home, starting next Saturday against Oklahoma St.Baylor: Another open date before playing at Texas on Oct. 29.---More AP college football: http://collegefootball.ap.org Demarcus Walker Jersey .

Newcastle and Manly have executed a swift post-NRL season player swap, with Akuila Uate leaving the Knights and Jamie Buhrer exiting the Sea Eagles. Joe Mixon Womens Jersey .Both clubs announced on Tuesday afternoon the movements of Buhrer and Uate, who each had a year remaining on their respective contracts.Utility Buhrer moves to Newcastle on a two-year contract, former Kangaroos and NSW State of Origin winger Uate does likewise at Brookvale.Sea Eagles coach Trent Barrett claimed the move was a win for both players.Jamie Buhrer has been a terrific player for Manly in his 128 first-grade games and this opportunity gives him a chance to extend this at a new club, Barrett said.The chance for Manly to pick up a quality winger who is just 28 of the calibre of Akuila Uate is exciting for the club. Sometimes, players need a change of clubs and Akuila, at his best, is one of the most-exciting players in the game.Uate fell out of favour with Knights coach Nathan Brown in his first year at the club. His last top-grade game for the Knights was in round 12.Uate, has played five Tests for Australia and five Origin matches for NSW, the last of those in 2012.The 28-year-old took up a considerable chunk of the Knights salary cap, said to be around $500,000 a season, and would free up the club to chase other players.Brown welcomed the acquisition of Buhrer, 26.Jamie is a natural footballer and a player that covers a number of positions, the coach said.Importantly, Jamie is a mature player and will help with the growth of our younger players.Jamie is a good leader, trainer and talker, and will be an important addition to our squad.He knows what is required to win and what it takes to win a grand final; he really comes to Newcastle with great experience.

A look at whats happening all around the majors Tuesday:---THE BIG 2-0Toronto lefty J. Cordrea Tankersley Dolphins Jersey .A. Happ goes for his 20th win when he starts at Seattle in a game between teams competing for the two AL wild cards. Before this season, Happs career high for wins was 12 with Philadelphia in 2009. The 33-year-old Happ (19-4, 3.27 ERA) starts against 35-year-old Mariners righty Hisashi Iwakuma (16-11, 3.87).CALIFORNIA RIVALRYRich Hill and the Dodgers try to move closer to an NL West crown when they host Johnny Cueto and the second-place Giants. Cueto (16-5, 2.86 ERA) pitched a five-hitter and retired his final 17 batters last Thursday in a clutch performance against St. Louis. Hill is 3-1 with a 1.48 ERA in four starts for Los Angeles since arriving in a trade with Oakland.ZEROS FOR THE OSKevin Gausman (8-10, 3.43 ERA) looks for another dominant outing against the Red Sox while the Orioles try to gain ground in the AL East. The 25-year-old outpitched Cy Young Award contender Rick Porcello over eight innings in a 1-0 win last Wednesday and has held opponents scoreless in four of his past five starts. Eduardo Rodriguez (2-7, 4.98) has a 3.25 ERA in 11 starts since a returning from a midseason demotion to Triple-A.A LIFT FROM LESTERCubs lefty Jon Lester (17-4, 2.40 ERA) has thrown 17 consecutive scoreless innings, a streak hell try to stretch against the Reds. Last time out, Lester pitched eight innings in a 7-0 win over the Cardinals. The 32-year-old All-Star has forced his way into the NL Cy Young Award conversation by going 8-1 with a 1.02 ERA over his past nine starts for playoff-bound Chicago.TOUGHER THAN THEY LOOKThough it might seem the wild card-contending Mets have an easy opponent in last-place Atlanta, theyve actually got their hands full. Pitching for the Braves is All-Star righty Julio Teheran, who threw a one-hit shutout at Citi Field on Fathers Day. He ran his scoreless streak against New York to 29 2/3 innings before giving up Curtis Grandersons home run Sept. 9.The Mets also must deal with longtime nemesis Freddie Freeman, who went 4 for 5 with a homer and three RBI during Atlantas victory over Noah Syndergaard in the series opener Monday night. Freeman has a 23-game hitting streak and has reached base safely in 39 straight.TRY AGAINJames Shields is 0-5 with a 9.37 ERA in his past nine starts for the White Sox.

The magnitude of Tim Duncans contributions over his 19-year career are every bit as remarkable as the announcement of his retirement on Monday was understated: Duncan collected five titles with the San Antonio Spurs and 1,001 regular-season victories, all with the same team in a small basketball outpost held over from the ABA-NBA merger.In an era defined by athleticism, Duncan was a master of mechanics. While contemporaries built careers on defying gravity, Timmy deked opponents with jab steps, shoulder fakes and line-drive bank shots, with both feet on the ground. He didnt captivate fans or sponsors with his exploits or charm them with charisma. He was wholly uninterested in the salesmanship required to build a personal brand and didnt give the NBA and its marketers much to work with as the league harnessed its star power to expand its global reach.For Duncan, the postgame podium wasnt a platform, but a sentence.Yet something improbable happened while he was slinking out of the Spurs locker room and dodging the spotlight:Inside the league, Tim Duncan became the most influential player of his generation. Though he had little public appeal outside central Texas over his two decades in the league, Duncan ushered in cultural change in NBA practice facilities, locker rooms and executive suites.The present-day NBA has become singularly consumed with the adoption and implementation of organizational culture. Forever looking for competitive advantages, franchises have turned to workplace culture as a bulwark. We might not be able to attract a top-line free agent, or hit the jackpot in the draft, but there are 44 games in an NBA season that can be won if we value the right things.This is the leagues guiding principle in 2016, from Atlanta and Salt Lake City to Oklahoma City and Brooklyn, where disciples of the Tim Duncan era learned the art and science of team-building in San Antonio. Theyve applied the findings and sculpted them to suit a particular roster or market. Some have enjoyed modest success while others are just getting started. But try as they might to replicate the Spurs recipe, all of them are forced to concede at a certain juncture that theyre missing one essential ingredient:They dont have Tim Duncan.We walk into our houses and thank Tim Duncan, Atlanta Hawks head coach and longtime Spurs assistant Mike Budenholzer says. You think about all the coaches and all the GMs and even the assistant video guys who are now assistant coaches, all the people who have climbed the NBA ladder -- we all owe our success, our place in the league to Timmy.The magnitude of that, the number of people in this league who have enjoyed opportunity or found fortunate spots in the league, you can trace it back to this one guy -- to the way Timmy played ball and the conducted himself. The culture is Timmy.Kevin Durant was a credible leader during his tenure with the Thunder -- a founding father of the program, in the words of general manager Sam Presti. Begrudging a first-rate star like Durant the opportunity to forge his own professional path is unwarranted, but his departure from Oklahoma City underscores a truth that owners and execs learn sooner or later. An organizations culture can shield it from disaster, but that culture is only as strong as its leading player.Thats why more measured voices in the Golden State Warriors wince when they read about their owner taking a victory lap for an organizational structure thats light yyears ahead. Cordrea Tankersley Youth Jersey. Its why every Spurs alum now in a senior managerial role elsewhere understands theres a limit to what infrastructure can do for a team absent a transcendent leader on the roster.And its why Gregg Popovich said a couple of years ago, Before you start handing out applause and credit to anyone else in this organization for anything thats been accomplished, remember it all starts with and goes through Timmy. As soon as he [retires], Ill be 10 steps behind. Because Im not stupid.Theres an ethic of reticence in San Antonio, where Duncan managed to shroud himself in mystery for 19 years. I dont feel comfortable putting myself out there, he told me in 2013. Im just a basketball player. I play the game. I go home. Confidants describe the public relations part of the job as torture for Duncan, an affront to the game. The periphery of the NBA life, everything outside the practice facility, is nonsense.Trying to be something that youre not gets you out of your comfort zone, Duncan said then. Im not that guy. I did a little bit of that. Ive done my share of it, but Im just not that guy. I dont think of myself in that respect. I love playing basketball and thats what I want to do. I dont need the extra stuff.But in the Spurs day-to-day operations, Duncans emotional intelligence was the connective tissue that held together Popovichs disciplined structure. Duncan would readily pass the mantle to Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili, then celebrate their success as if it was his own.The thing that amazed me about how Timmy built relationships was how subtle it was -- the touch, the arm around the shoulder, the thing that would look like little or nothing to outsiders, Budenholzer says. It affected people, maybe because it was subtle and under-the-radar.Blake Griffin, who has admired the way Duncan carries himself, sought out Duncans counsel a few years back. Griffin was part of a Los Angeles Clippers team that now had several loud voices and wanted to glean how quiet leadership could make a difference. The thing I took away the most was this idea that a leader isnt the guy whos pounding the chest, or huddles or giving motivational speech, Griffin says. It was really reassuring to me as a younger guy, that you dont have to be something youre not. Of many things you can say about him, thats the thing that sets him apart -- he never tried to see who wasnt. And it works.At any time, theres always the one guy theyll use as an example. Maybe its Russell Wilson for a year or two. Then they move on to Tom Brady or [Kevin Garnett]. But [Duncan] has been the guy you constantly hear about whos constantly doing it right. Hes the guy who deserved the shine, but was riding underneath it.For a man who was so inaccessible to those looking in from the outside, Tim Duncan was an everyman. Most of our lives and careers emulate Duncans: We do the work quietly and diligently and dont have much cause to glory-hound. The job is the job, and if youre lucky, you do it because you love it, but not for any external affirmation, other than you want your partner, family and friends to be proud because its nice to be admired by the people in the world you care most about.Tim Duncan invented the NBAs modern vision of team culture. Now the rest of basketball is trying to imitate the guy nobody found fashionable.

Drummond laughed and shook his head as he walked off the floor, flabbergasted that he had been ejected.I thought that was a key part of the game right there, Pistons coach Stan Van Gundy said. We were down after the play so to come back and be up three at the half was good.Drummond said he didnt do it on purpose.I dont make the rules, Drummond said. I just play the game. They felt that I had done something maliciously. Everybody who knows me knows thats the type player I am. At the end of the day, it wasnt my call so I took the consequences and walked off the floor.Said Harris: It says a lot about our team, but most importantly about guys like Aron (Baynes) and Jon (Leuer) to fill in for that role and be productive and bring the energy that he had when he was playing when he was out there.Kemba Walker had 23 points for the Hornets, who were playing their fourth game in five nights.Hornets coach Steve Clifford refused to use that as an excuse.We can come in here and do the preverbal its five (games) in seven (nights), but if you do that, to me, you have the wrong expectations of what our team should be, Clifford saidThe Pistons hadnt played since Saturday and looked much fresher throughout the game.Detroit took a 10-point lead into the fourth quarter after Caldwell-Popee knocked down a pair of 3-pointers late in the third.

Walker has scored 20 or more points in 15 of the Charlottes 18 games this season. ... Charlotte fell to 5-5 at home.DRUMMOND EJECTEDThere is a history between Drummond and Hibbert. Hibbert said back in 2013 he was no longer a fan of Drummond after claiming he talked too much trash.CHARLOTTE TROUBLESClifford said hes concerned about two things -- the Hornets being 5-5 at home and 1/3 on the tail end of back-to-backs.If those things continue to happen then we certainly are not going to be in the position where we need to be, Clifford said.SMITH HOMECOMINGSmith is a Charlotte native, so he enjoyed getting a win against the Hornets.It was good to see my family and friends and coaches and mentors who helped me along the way, Smith said. But its a business trip.

The first Test between New Zealand and Pakistan at Hagley Oval is expected to go ahead as scheduled on November 17, despite Christchurch having suffered a 7. Tre Davious White Womens Jersey .5 magnitude earthquake, just after midnight on Monday.The Pakistan mens team, who were in Nelson when the quake occurred, reported being a little shaken by the experience, but will prepare for Thursdays Test as usual.Preparations for the Test are going ahead, but we are continuing to monitor the situation, a New Zealand Cricket spokesperson said. Its just a case of staying in touch with authorities.Both teams arrived in Christchurch on Monday and have training sessions scheduled for Tuesday. The area continued to be hit by aftershocks, however. A 6.3 magnitude quake was felt at around 1.30pm on Monday, and these are expected to continue through the next week.Pakistan team manager Wasim Bari said NZC had assured his side of their safety, in the team hotel and at the ground. The cricketers had spent a largely sleepless night in Nelson. They had evacuated their hotel when the quake hit, and most had not returned to their rooms for the remainder of the night, electing instead to remain in the reception area.For us it was something new because we dont have many earthquakes in Pakistan, Bari said. This was a pretty strong one. Wed just finished watching the India-England match and the doors and windows were going from one side to another as if they were made of paper. There was some trauma as well for the boys. Back home, the families had felt disturbed.The Pakistan womens team, meanwhile, had ridden out the quake in the upper floors of a Christchurch hotel. Their manager Basit Ali told Geo News that the team was safe, though still scared.The New Zealand mens squad had only assembled in Christchurch on Monday morning, but fast bowler Matt Henry - a Christchurch native - had been in the city overnight. He described the experience as a bit scary, but was pleased the Test would go ahead.It always brings the community together - provides a brief moment of normality, Henry said. Its probably good timing to have the Test match this week. Hopefully the weather plays its part.The epicentre of the earthquake was at a depth of about 5km, about 40km from the town of Amberley, which is only about 90km north-east of Hagley Oval. Hagley Oval had become a Test venue after the previous Christchurch ground was devastated by an earthquake in 2011.

The Spokane goaltender finished with 28 saves, including a Brandon Fushimi penalty shot in the second period that would have tied the game 1-1. To help you set your lineups and avoid starting a player who doesnt take the field, we will post fantasy-relevant updates and analysis here as NFL teams release their Sunday inactive lists before kickoff. Any rankings cited in this column come from our ESPN Fantasy staff ranks.?Teams on bye this week: Bills, Lions, Colts, Raiders.Refresh often for the latest information.Ruled out before SundayWR Jeremy Maclin (groin), LB Justin Houston (knee), DE Derek Wolfe (elbow), RB Tevin Coleman (hamstring), TE Jacob Tamme (shoulder), RB Jacquizz Rodgers (foot), LB Denzel Perryman (hamstring), LB Jatavis Brown (knee), S Tyrann Mathieu (shoulder), S Barry Church (forearm), RB DeAngelo Williams (knee), RB Thomas Rawls?(leg), DE Michael Bennett (knee).Early games, 1 p.m. ET (eight scheduled)WR Will Fuller V (knee, questionable) -- inactive LB Derrick Johnson (hamstring, questionable) -- active WR Allen Hurns (concussion, questionable) -- active RB Todd Gurley (thigh, questionable) -- active QB Ryan Fitzpatrick (knee, questionable) -- active RB Doug Martin (hamstring, questionable) -- active RB James Starks (knee, questionable) -- active WR DeSean Jackson (shoulder, doubtful) -- inactiveLate games, 4:05 and 4:25 p.m. ET (three scheduled)WR Jarvis Landry (shoulder, questionable) -- active WR Kenny Stills (calf, questionable) -- active WR Travis Benjamin (knee, doubtful) -- inactive WR Tyrell Williams (knee, questionable) -- active TE Hunter Henry (knee, questionable) -- active RB Carlos Hyde (shoulder, questionable) -- active WR Dez Bryant (knee, questionable) -- activeSunday night game, 8:30 ETRB Christine Michael (hamstring, questionable) -- active WR Chris Hogan (back, questionable) -- active TE Martellus Bennett (ankle, questionable) -- active RB Dion Lewis (knee) -- inactive WR Julian Edelman (foot, questionable) -- activeUpdates/analysis (most recent first)Late-game running backs (7:07 p.m.): Dion Lewis will not be active for the Patriots tonight, setting up a continued passing-game role for James White. On the other side of the ball, Christine Michael is active after being added to the injury report during the week. Theres still reason for concern about his workload and ability to finish the game, as weve seen with other hamstring injuries this season.Dak Prescott (3:15 p.m.): Theres no need for the Cowboys to have Prescott looking over his shoulder today. Thats why it makes complete sense to see that Tony Romo, although resigned to being a backup QB for now, is inactive this afternoon.Carlos Hyde (3 p.m.): Hyde is active, and given that Mike Davis is inactive for the 49ers, it would appear that the team is not all that concerned about his ability to handle (at a minimum) a significant share of the workload.Travis Benjamin (2:50 p.m): He did not participate in practice all week, so nobody should be surprised to hear that Benjamin will sit this one out for San Diego. There is good news for the Chargers, though, as both Hunter Henry and Tyrell Williams will be active this afternoon.Miami Dolphins (2:45 p.m.): A trio of injured pass-catchers will all be active for Dolphins today. Jarvis Landry, Kenny Stills and Dion Sims all will be on the field this afternoon. However, CB Chris Culliver (knee) will need at least one more week to recover from before suiting up for Miami.?Denver Broncos (12:02 p.m.): With the Saints sitting LT Terron Armstead, the decision to roll thee dice on the Broncos D/ST becomes a little easier. Dion Dawkins Youth Jersey. Meanwhile, on offense, the Broncos have dressed only two RBs:?Devontae Booker and Kapri Bibbs.Matt Jones (11:55 a.m.): While the fact that WR DeSean Jackson is out with an injured shoulder this week is not a surprise to most fantasy owners, news that Jones would be a healthy scratch today might have snuck up on some people. However, the Washington Post saw this coming as early as Thursday. Robert Kelley has the starting RB job on lockdown.Doug Martin (11:50 a.m.): Tampa Bay finally gets Martin back after the RB injured his hamstring two months ago. The timing is fortuitous, as Jacquizz Rodgers (foot) is inactive today for the Buccaneers.Will Fuller V (11:45 a.m.): Jacksonvilles defense should have an easier time stopping Houston today, with Fuller (knee) out. The duo of Keith Mumphery and Braxton Miller will share second-fiddle duties to DeAndre Hopkins.Ryan Fitzpatrick (11:40 a.m.): Although Fitzpatrick is active?for todays game, he will be the backup quarterback for the Jets. Bryce Petty will start, while Christian Hackenberg is inactive.Derrick Johnson (11:30 a.m.): Warm-ups seem to have gone well this morning for the Kansas City linebacker. He tells the NFL Network that hes good to go for todays game.Ryan Kalil (11:25 a.m.): The Panthers center is close to returning, but despite working out this morning and declaring that his shoulder feels better, he is expected to be inactive again today. Gino Gradkowski (knee) should start for the second straight game, though he is also ailing a bit.Bryce Petty (9:05 a.m.): Either?Ryan Fitzpatricks knee is not up to par, or perhaps the Jets simply want to give their young quarterback a start to see what he can do. In any event, sources tell ESPNs Adam Schefter that Petty will start today for the Jets against the Rams.Carlos Hyde (7:45 a.m.): ESPNs Adam Schefter reports that the 49ers running back does plan to play against the Cardinals this afternoon. That said, he also notes that DuJuan Harris, who has impressed, will still have a part in the teams game plan, keeping him in flex consideration.?James Starks (7:40 a.m.): While optimistic, Green Bay is planning to wait until after warm-ups to see whether Starks can make his return from knee surgery today, according to NFL Networks Ian Rapoport.Todd Gurley (7:35 a.m.): A source tells ESPNs Adam Schefter that the Rams RB is expected to play today against the Jets. Gurley has been dealing with a thigh injury and missed two practices this week, so temper fantasy expectations even if he does suit up.Allen Hurns (7:30 a.m.): Hurns was cleared to practice in a limited capacity on Thursday, even as he spent the week in the leagues concussion protocol. Unless he suffers a last-minute setback, the Jaguars fully expect?him to play today.Christine Michael (7:25 a.m.): Thomas Rawls has been ruled out, and now Michael is questionable because of a hamstring issue. Sources tell ESPNs Adam Schefter that Michael should be good, but C.J. Prosise definitely looks to be the safer fantasy option, given the Sunday night kickoff.Official Sunday inactives should begin coming in at approximately 11:30 a.m. ET for the early games, 2:30 p.m. ET for the late games and 7 p.m. ET for the Sunday night game.
