Fourth-quarter performances are a big reason why the New York Giants are 1-0 and the New Orleans Saints are 0-1 going into their matchup Sunday at MetLife Stadium.jerseys china .The Giants came from behind to beat the Cowboys 20-19 on Eli Mannings 3-yard touchdown pass to Victor Cruz with six minutes left in last weeks game in Arlington, Texas. The Saints squandered an 11-point lead as Oakland gained 210 yards and scored 22 points in the fourth quarter to prevail 35-34 last week in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome.Being on opposite ends of fourth-quarter comebacks left the two teams in different mindsets coming out of the first weekend of the season.Not at one time did I feel at any point in the game that we doubted that we were going to win the game, said Giants linebacker Jonathan Casillas, who was a member of the New Orleans team that won the Super Bowl at the end of the 2009 season. Even though we were down late in the game, and headed into the fourth quarter, I didnt feel at any time that there was any doubt by anybody on the team, offense or defense.Drew Brees, who had his 14th 400-yard passing game and threw four touchdown passes against the Raiders, said he wouldnt be surprised to see this game decided in the final moments also.Fifty or more percent of games in this league come down to the last possession, he said. Youd say that just based upon that it is a strong possibility, that the last team that has the ball last has a chance to win.New Orleans couldnt slow down Oakland in part because it didnt cause a turnover and did not sack Derek Carr.We have to be better in that area (rushing the passer), and sometimes its going to come from more than a four-man rush -- or a pressure, coach Sean Payton said. But I think that its more difficult on the back end if the quarterback has time and is able to sit in the pocket and get to his third and fourth receivers, and that happened a little bit in the second half (against the Raiders).The Saints and the Giants have had an unusual series of high-scoring games against one another in recent seasons. In the last four meetings, the winning team has scored 48, 49, 52 and 52 points, including New Orleans 52-49 victory last season in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome.Its the first time in NFL history that two teams have played four consecutive games in which the winner scored at least 48 points each time.In last years meeting, Brees threw for 505 yards and tied an NFL record with seven touchdown passes, in outdueling Manning, who passed for 350 yards and a career-high six touchdowns.Youve got to expect theyre going to be able to score because they have that ability, Manning said of the Saints offense. The bunch of times weve played them its been high scoring. So weve got a new offense. Weve got to do our part, protect the ball, sustain drives, convert on third downs. Weve got to do our part and try to make sure were scoring touchdowns.Both teams lost a defensive player to injury in the opener. The Giants lost linebacker J.T. Thomas after he suffered torn ligaments in his left knee and they placed him on injured reserve. His roster spot was taken by kicker Josh Brown, who served an NFL suspension in Week 1.New York also released Browns replacement, Randy Bullock, and re-signed defensive tackle Montori Hughes, who had been waived on the final preseason cutdown.They have gone out and signed some guys and made some improvements, I think both to their front and to their secondary, Brees said of the Giants. They have some good young talent. I just see them playing really well together.Bottom line you cant look at last years (game) and say thats the type of game its going to be. I know our defense would take exception to that and Im certain that theirs would as well. Its going to be a hard-fought game and its an NFC game and their home opener, so there is a lot to play for.This game marks the first home game for Ben McAdoo as New Yorks head coach.The Saints lost starting cornerback Delvin Breaux when he suffered a broken fibula. He underwent surgery and is expected to miss six weeks. Breaux was replaced in last weeks game by rookie Ken Crawley, who was guarding Raiders wide receiver Michael Crabtree when Crabtree caught a game-winning two-point conversion pass from Carr with 47 seconds left.New Orleans signed cornerback B.W. Webb to provide depth while Breaux is sidelined.The Saints also released running back C.J. Spiller, a high-profile free agent the team signed before last season who never had an impact and was inactive for the game against Oakland. wholesale nfl jerseys . The return match will take place next Wednesday. Udinese leads Fiorentina 2-1 in the other semifinal. Napoli staged a second-half comeback from two goals down after Gervinhos opener and a stunning strike from Kevin Strootman. stitched nfl jerseys . -- San Francisco 49ers linebacker Ahmad Brooks was fined $15,570 by the NFL on Wednesday for his hit on Saints quarterback Drew Brees last Sunday. http://www.jerseysv.com/ . -- If this was Aaron Gordons final home game at Arizona, and it almost certainly was, then he went out in style. The fall portion of the 2016-17 PGA Tour concludes this weekend with the RSM Classic at Sea Island Resort in St. Simons Island, Ga.And although more than 25 fully exempt PGA Tour players in the field either live nearby or consider the Sea Island Golf Performance Center as their base, its anything but a certainty that the title will be won by a hometown favorite.The event, which was founded in 2010 and formerly called the McGladrey Classic, is famously hosted by PGA Tour player Davis Love III, one of many Tour players among the areas residents.Love is faced with myriad of responsibilities and challenges before and during tournament week. On top of his tournament host duties, Love also competes in the event and said that when its time to tee it up he simply wants to go play.Its worth all the hard work to get to do what I go do, Love III said. I want to continue to see how good I can get. World No. 1 is probably not realistic at (52) years old, but staying out on the PGA Tour until you are 60 and trying to win more golf tournaments is a fun goal.Three of the previous four champions of this event claimed their first title here, including Kevin Kisner, who won by six shots last year while setting 54- and 72-hole scoring records.Kisner validated a year of near misses in with a dominating victory, shooting 12-under par on the weekend to cruise to the win over distant runner-up Kevin Chappell.Kisners six-stroke victory in 2015 is the largest in tournament history. Until 2015, all five previous editions in the RSMs short history had been decided by no more than one shot.It was one of those weeks when everything was going my way, and you have to remember those because they dont happen very often, Kisner said.Kisner temporarily relocated to St. Simons Island while his Aiken, S.C., house was being renovated.Two of the tournaments six champions have been part-timers -- Kisner and Chris Kirk (2014). But with all the big names that call St. Simons Island home, the RSM Classiic still is looking for its first true hometown winner. jerseys wholesale. .The closest a fulltime resident has come was Loves tie for fourth in 2012.Eleven players in the field seeking their first win have at least one runner-up finish since the beginning of the 2015-16 season.Other Golden Isles residents in the field this week are Matt Kuchar, Zach Johnson, Harris English, Brian Harman, Hudson Swafford, Patton Kizzire, Bobby Wyatt and Trey Mullinax.The tournament usually has a strong field because of its place on the schedule right before the holidays, the challenging courses at the resort and the measuring stick it provides players before many go on an extended break.Ten players who are ranked inside the top 30 in the FedExCup standings are in the 156-player field that will battle for the $5.7 million purse, $1.026 million of which goes to the winner.The highest ranked-players in the field in the Official World Golf Rankings are Kuchar (No. 20), Brandt Snedeker (26), Chappell (28), Jim Furyk (34), Johnson (35), Bill Haas (38) and Kisner (41).Sea Islands 7,005-yard, par-70 Seaside course will be the feature track and the site of play for the remaining field on Saturday and Sunday.Once again, entrants also will play one of the first two rounds at the revamped Plantation course.Unlike Harbour Town to the north, Sea Island was fortunate to suffer minimal damage from Hurricane Matthew. The Seaside Course withstood Mother Nature better than the Plantation and Tour officials said damage set them back only about a week in preparation.The RSM Classic is the seventh event in the PGA Tours wraparound schedule that bridges two years with 47 official events.Over the span of 43 weeks, players vie to become the FedExCup Champion. After a break, the season will resume in January with the traditional swing through Hawaii before moving to the West Coast. Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '

SYRACUSE, N. http://www.shopnygiants.us/phil-simms-jersey/ .Y. -- On Selection Sunday last March, two of the biggest story lines involved the Syracuse Orange (in) and the Monmouth Hawks (out).Syracuse, a middle-of-the-pack Atlantic Coast Conference team, justified the NCAA Tournament selection committees decision to make the Orange a No. 10 seed by reaching the Final Four.Monmouth, meanwhile, received a No. 1 seed in the National Invitation Tournament and is back to the drawing board this season as the Hawks seek their first NCAA Tournament bid since 2006.In an early-season matchup that recalls the committees controversial decision, Monmouth (1-1) will visit 18th-ranked Syracuse (2-0) on Friday night in a Brooklyn Hoops Holiday Invitational game at the Carrier Dome. The five-team, round-robin tournament also includes South Carolina, South Carolina State and Holy Cross.Syracuse thumped Holy Cross 90-46 Tuesday at the Dome after routing Colgate 83-55 to open the season.After defeating Drexel 78-65 in its opener Nov. 11, Monmouth overcame an 18-point deficit against South Carolina to send the game into overtime Tuesday before losing 70-69 on a buzzer-beater.Last season, the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference regular-season champ Hawks became a mid-major media darling by playing 17 road games and 23 games away from home and beating Power Five teams Notre Dame, USC, Georgetown, UCLA and Rutgers. Ultimately, the selection committee couldnt ignore Monmouths eye-popping losses to Canisius, Army and Manhattan.Led by reigning MAAC Player of the Year Justin Robinson, Monmouth was selected to finish first in the MAAC this season in a poll of the leagues coaches.Against South Carolina, the Hawks trailed 40-22 before mounting a 27-8 run to briefly take the lead. In overtime, the Gamecocks Duane Notice blocked Robinsons layup with eight seconds left, and PJ Doziers 15-footer at the buzzer won it for South Carolina.We were in the right place, they got a lucky shot, Monmouth coach King Rice said immediately after the game. All you have to do is watch (South Carolinas) reaction. They knew they were in a big-time fight. Their kids are tired, they all hugged me and said, Man, coach, your guys. Whoo!While they struggled offensively for three-quarters of the game, the Hawks stayed close by making 23 of 27 foul shots and holding South Carolina to 33.8 percent shooting from the floor. Senior center Chris Brady recorded the second double-double of his career with 17 points and 10 rebounds.The Orange steamrolled Holy Cross behind a 13-for-25 shooting effort from 3-point range. Fifth-year graduate senior transfer Andrew White sank all four of his shots from beyond the arc and led Syracuse with 19 points.The Syracuse offense is directed by point guards Frank Howard and John Gillon, who have combined for 46 points, 27 assists and just five turnovers in two games.There is no answer if we are all hitting jumpers. and when you go to man-(to-man) you will get beaten that way, too, said Gillon, a fifth-year graduate senior transfer from Colorado State. With our depth, our smarts and our athleticism, it is really hard to stop us.http://www.shopnygiants.us/janoris-jenkins-jersey/ . -- Mike Smith never saw his first NHL goal go in. http://www.shopnygiants.us/jonathan-casillas-jersey/. Takahashi, who had a 10-point lead after the short program, received 268.31 points after the free skate to finish 15 points ahead of second-place Nobunari Oda.http://www.shopnygiants.us/eli-manning-jersey/ . -- The Sacramento Kings are set to become the first major professional sports franchise to accept Bitcoin virtual currency for ticket and merchandise purchases. BILOXI, Miss. -- Victoria Vivians scored 17 points, Breanna Richardson added 11 and No. 10 Mississippi State cruised past Tulane 66-49 on Wednesday night.The game wasnt pretty early as both teams struggled to score points, but when the Bulldogs (3-0) began to find their shot in the second quarter, Tulane (1-1) stayed cold.The Green Wave ended up going scoreless in the final 4:36 of the second quarter, which helped Mississippi State take a 36-16 advantage into halftime.Tulanes best chance at mounting an upset bridged the third and fourth quuarters thanks to a 10-0 run. http://www.shopnygiants.us/keenan-robinson-jersey/. The rally was aided by consecutive 3-pointers from Leslie Vorpahl, bringing the Green Wave within 47-35. Mississippi State responded with its own small run, however, to squash the comeback attempt.Vorpahl carried the Green Wave, scoring 20 points on 9 of 11 shooting from the floor. Harlyn Wyatt added 10 points.Mississippi State has won four straight over the Green Wave. Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys ChinaCheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '

CHICAGO -- Now that the Chicago Cubs have clinched a spot in the postseason for the second consecutive year, lets take an early peek at what a playoff roster might look like. As manager Joe Maddon has indicated several times recently, some on the roster will be determined by who the opponent is, so adjustments will be made accordingly based on a first-round, best-of-five series.Because the Cubs used 11 pitchers and 14 position players last year in the National League Division Series, well use that as our standard here, but thats no guarantee as pitching coach Chris Bosio has already indicated they might want more help in the bullpen.Position player locks: Anthony Rizzo, Ben Zobrist, Addison Russell, Kris Bryant, Jason Heyward, Javier Baez, Jorge Soler, Dexter Fowler, Willson Contreras, David Ross, Matt Szczur, Tommy La Stella.On the bubble: Miguel Montero, Chris Coghlan and Albert Almora.My call: If the Cubs keep 14 position players, the decision may not be that difficult here. Montero and Coghlan would probably get the edge based on a couple of factors: Theyre both veterans and theyre both left-handed. The Cubs likely would be OK with carrying three catchers -- especially when one is a rookie and another is 39 years old -- as that would give Maddon more flexibility within a game. If Fowler needed to come out late for defensive reasons, a better case could be made for Almora. Szczur is more than capable as a late-inning defensive replacement as well.Coghlan might be on the outside looking in if the Cubs keep only 13 position players. La Stella and Szczur get the edge because of their ability to come off the bench and deliver a hit or walk. There is a chance Almora makes it over Coghlan no matter how many they keep, but with righty closers throughout the NL postseason, lefty bats off the bench could be most important.Pitching locks: Jon Lester, Kyle Hendricks, Jake Arrieta, John Lackey, Aroldis Chapman, Pedro Strop, Hector Rondon, Justin Grimm, Travis Wood, Carl Edwards Jr.On the bubble: Joe Smith, Mike Montgomery, Rob Zastryzny, Trevor Cahill, Jason Hammel.My call: The Cubs are deeper in the bullpen this year than last, and if they play the Giants or Cardinals they will absolutely want another left-hander back there, so Montgomery actually might be closer to a lock than on the bubble. Remember, Wood has been awful against righties, so hes almost a one-batter pitcher in a close game unless lefties are stacked next to each other in the lineup.Smith and Hammel have allowed too many home runs, which can change a postseason game quickly. Zastryzny is a rookie and if not for Montgomerys presence, he might make the roster. Cahill could be the odd man out as he has been inconsistent and is best suited for long relief, a spot the Cubs hope they wont need come October.With weeks until the postseason, things could change simply based on who gets hot down the stretch. And how many pitchers versus position players?they keep will undoubtedly be an intense discussion between the Cubs front office and their manager. Anthony Davis is toiling on his own while putting up gaudy numbers to start the season for the New Orleans Pelicans.The superstar forward averages 30.5 points, 11.2 rebounds and 2.9 blocks per game for the 2-9 squad. He is shooting 48.7 percent from the floor, impressive for a high-usage player such as Davis.Davis, after a year dealing with injuries and his teams own struggles, is reclaiming his spot atop the league as one of the most unique and singular talents.Again though, the Pelicans injury issues and his teams struggles are holding his stardom back.New Orleans, which picked up its second victory of the season Monday night at home against the Boston Celtics, has only two other players averaging at least 10 points. The fourth-highest scorer, Lance Stephenson, was cut a week ago. The team is still hurting to score, averaging 98.9 points per 100 possessions.Davis takes a lot of attention, but he needs help. The good news is he may very well get it soon.Wednesdays game in Orlando may very well be the last one for Davis without former All-Star guard Jrue Holiday running alongside him. Holiday has been out the entire training camp and preseason to be with his wife, U.S. Womens Soccer star Lauren Holiday, after the birth of their child and surgery to remove a benign brain tumor.The Pelicans announced Tuesday that Holiday will return to the team for Thursdays practice and play Friday against the Portland Trail Blazers. New Orleans coach Alvin Gentry told reporters Holiday has been working out twice pper day and appears in great shape as he rejoins the team.ddddddddddddIt is something the Pelicans desperately need.It will probably take him a couple of games to get back, but as long as he is on the floor its going to be good, Davis told the New Orleans Times Picayune. When you are missing one of your guys and they come back around, its always a happy feeling.Holiday averaged 16.8 points per game and 6.0 assists per game in 65 games last year for New Orleans. Adding him back to the lineup will be a major benefit and support to Davis and the Pelicans fledgling offense.Until he returns, they can take solace in playing another team that is struggling as much as they are.The Magic (4-7) scored only 69 points against the Indiana Pacers in a 19-point loss Monday. Their 33 percent shooting continued to crater their league-worst 41.0 percent shooting this season. Like the Pelicans, the Magic rank near the bottom of the league in points per 100 possessions.We had a few games now where we just cant score, we cant find a rhythm offensively, Magic center Nikola Vucevic told the Orlando Sentinel following Mondays game. I dont know the exact reason for it. Were getting good shots. Maybe we can get better shots.Magic coach Frank Vogel called his teams performance Monday very disappointing, especially after scoring 119 points in Oklahoma City the night before in an emotional victory. Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From ChinaCheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. Nike Roshe One Hombre . -- DeWalt will increase the number of races as Matt Kenseths primary sponsor from six to 10 this year and then to 15 for 2017, Joe Gibbs Racing announced Thursday before practice at Daytona International Speedway.Kenseth, 44, won the 2000 rookie title and his 2003 Sprint Cup championship in a DeWalt car. He was reunited with the company last season, two years after his move to JGR.Team owner Joe Gibbs said the new arrangement is a multiyear deal. Kenseth said afterward that even though there was no announcement of how many races DeWalt would sponsor in 2018, it does not mean he would retire after next year.Its a multiyear deal, Kenseth said. I wouldnt read too much into it. ... I made my first Cup start with DeWalt. I hope to make my last Cup start with DeWalt. Not today, of course, but someday down the road. Theyve been more than a great sponsor. Theyve been like family.Kenseth still has open races for 2017. Sponsor Dollar General, which had been doing as many as 30 of the 38 races a year, opted to leave NASCAR after this season.You always hate it when theres a change, said Kenseth, who has 37 career Sprint Cup wins. It was great to have DeWalt come back and keep expanding their role. Nike Roshe One Baratas . -- Vincent Lecavalier got everything but the desired result in his return to Tampa Bay. Puma Rihanna Creepers Marrones . JOHNS, N.http://www.flyknitroshetwo.com/puma-rihanna.html . He just needed to be his best twisting, turning acrobatic self. "I didnt need to be anybody else, I just needed to be myself and be aggressive," said Burks, who scored a career-high 34 points to spark the Utah Jazz to a 118-103 victory over the Denver Nuggets on Monday night.ATLANTA -- Brandon Beachy keeps making progress in his return from elbow ligament replacement surgery. And now that hes reintroducing the slider to his repertoire, his confidence is growing. "Im starting to work on sequences and throwing pitches -- breaking balls -- for strikes, stuff like that," Beachy said. "Hopefully keep moving in that direction." Beachy pitched six strong innings, Chris Johnson drove in three runs and Jason Heyward homered and to help the Atlanta Braves beat the Philadelphia Phillies 6-3 on Wednesday night. The Braves, who have won two straight and 17 of 19, lead the majors with a .612 winning percentage. Philadelphia, which has lost seven of eight series since All-Star break, has dropped 19 of 23. The Phillies have lost 13 of 14 on the road. Rain delayed the start of the game 1 hour, 48 minutes. Beachy (2-0) held the Phillies scoreless until Dominic Browns 27th homer cut the lead to 5-2 with one out in the sixth. John Lannan (3-6) lasted only 1 1-3 innings -- the shortest outing in a career spanning 148 starts -- before leaving with a left knee injury. Beachy, making his fourth start since returning from surgery, allowed five hits, two runs and no walks. The right-hander struck out four, beating Philadelphia for the first time in nine career starts. Beachy has been waiting to bring back his slider, which is traditionally the last pitch to return to form after Tommy John surgery. He missed 105 games before returning July 29. "Its something that Im still going to have to work at to get the feel for it and really be confident with it," Beachy said. "Whether its effective or not, if I keep it down, its something theyre going to have to think about." Craig Kimbrel converted his 28th consecutive save opportunity and 38th in 41 chances, striking out John Mayberry Jr., retiring Carlos Ruiz on a flyout and pinch-hitter Kevin Frandsen on a groundout. Kimbrel entered the game with none out in the ninth after David Carpenter allowed a leadoff homer to Darin Ruf and walked Cody Asche. The Braves went up 2-0 in the first on Heywards leadoff homer and Johnsons sacrifice fly. Lannan escaped further damage with runners on first and third when B.J. Upton took a called third strike, but his troubles continued in the second with a one-out walk to Beachy. Heyward doubled on a liner off third baseman Asche that advanced Beachy to third, and after Justin Upton walked on five pitches, Lannans night was overr. Nike Roshe One BR. Atlanta took a 5-0 lead after the next Philadelphia pitcher, Zack Miner, gave up Freddie Freemans sacrifice fly and Johnsons two-run single. Johnson leads the NL and ranks second in the majors with a .337 batting average. "Im just trying to take the same approach every time up there," Johnson said. "Hopefully I can stay as consistent as possible that way." Lannan gave up four hits and five runs with three walks and one strikeout. Coming off a 9-2 loss last Friday at Washington in which he allowed a career high-tying eight earned runs, he is 1-5 with a 10.50 ERA in his last six road starts. "Every time I push off theres a pain in the knee," said Lannan, who will visit an orthopedist on Thursday. "Im trying to get through that and everything else is tightening up. I want to get this thing fixed. Thats what it comes down to." Philadelphia, which stranded runners in scoring position three times in the first four innings, has been outscored 85-30 over its last 15 road games. Beachy, who left for a pinch hitter in the sixth, improved to 1-3 and lowered his ERA to 3.67 in nine career starts against Philadelphia. Luis Ayala and Luis Avilan combined to allow one hit with one strikeout in the seventh and eighth for Atlanta before Rufs seventh homer made it 6-3. Heywards 11th homer gave him 12 RBIs since moving to the leadoff spot on July 27 -- a span of 18 games in which hes hit .382 and scored 20 runs. Notes: Heyward was nearly charged with his first error of the season when he ran in from right field, knocked over 2B Tyler Pastornicky and dropped Jimmy Rollins pop fly in the third. An official scoring change announced in the sixth gave Rollins a double. ... Pastornicky left before the top of the fourth with a sprained left knee. The Braves announced that he will be re-evaluated on Thursday. ... Brown has three homers in his last eight games. ... SS Andrelton Simmons, whom manager Fredi Gonzalez wanted to give the night off, took his place on the field and went 1 for 2 with one run scored. Paul Janish moved to second. ... Janish was hitless in his last 27 at-bats, dating back to Aug. 31, 2012, at home against Philadelphia, before his third-inning single. ... Three of Philadelphias eight hits were infield singles. ... Braves CF B.J. Upton went 0 for 4, lowering his batting average to .188, with one strikeout and three stranded runners. ... RF Justin Upton tied a career-high with three walks. Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '

Lightweight world titlist Terry Flanagan will defend his belt against Orlando Cruz in a late addition to promoter Frank Warrens card on Nov. 26 at Motorpoint Arena in Cardiff, Wales, Warren announced Thursday.Flanagan (31-0, 12 KOs), a 27-year-old southpaw from England, will make his fourth title defense and fight for the third time this year. He will be boxing in Cardiff for the second consecutive fight. He won a shutout decision against former junior lightweight world titlist Mzonke Fana on July 16 but was not pleased with his performance.Im excited to get out there again and put in a big performance before getting the blockbuster fights that Frank has promised me next year, Flanagan said. Last time I fought in Cardiff, I wasnt happy with how I boxed, so it will be good to show the Welsh fans that Im a lot better than I showed against Fana.Also a southpaw, Puerto Ricos Cruz (25-4-1, 13 KOs), 35, is boxings first openly gay fighter. He is moving up from the junior lightweight division less than two months after notching a seventh-round knockout of Gabino Cota on Oct. 7.The fight with Flanagan will be Cruzs second opportunity to win a world title. In 2013, Orlando Salido knocked him out in the seventh round in a vacant featherweight title fight in Las Vegas.Flanagan is hoping to win and move on to face bigger names next year.Franks delivered everything he promised. He got me a British title, a WBO European title and a WBO world title, Flanagan said. I got the opportunity to defend it in my own town [Manchester] and then defend it in someone elses backyard. I know Im the best lightweight in the division, and Im looking to get these big fights to prove it.Still, Flanagan said he is not going to downplay Cruz, who has won five fights in a row.I do what I need to get the win, but if I feel the stoppage is there, Ill go for it, Flanagan said. Cruz is a strong fighter and very dangerous and more than capable of causing an upset.Im out to prove a point and show everyone that Im world-class. [Jorge] Linares is seen as No. 1 in the division after beating [Anthony] Crolla, and it would be good to get that fight and do something that Crolla couldnt do to prove Im the best around. 0Number of captains who scored a century at an older age than Misbah-ul-Haqs 42 years, 47 days in the history of Tests. The previous oldest captain to make a Test century was Bob Simpson at 41 years, 359 days against India in Adelaide in 1977-78. This is Misbahs fifth-century after turning 40, all have come as captain; no captain scored more than three centuries after 40.8Centuries for Misbah as captain in Tests, which is the most by a Pakistan captain.

Five of those six captains to do that have been from Asia; Garry Sobers is the only non-Asian. Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '

St Lucia Zouks 174 for 9 (Sammy 59, Joseph 4-41) beat St Kitts & Nevis Patriots 139 for 9 (Du Plessis 48, Johnson 3-37) by 35 runsScorecard and ball-by-ball detailsDarren Sammy ran amok in the first match at the Darren Sammy National Cricket Stadium, at Gros Islet, since it had been renamed in the honour of West Indies World T20 winning captain. Sammy belted 59 off 35 balls, including five sixes and two fours, to lift St Lucia Zouks, coming off three successive losses, to a 35-run victory and knock St Kitts & Nevis Patriots out of contention for the knockouts.Coming in at the fall of Michael Hussey at a precarious 83 for 4, halfway into the 12th over, Sammy set to work by launching a straight six off legspinner Samuel Badree. He then hit Jonathan Carter for two boundaries in the following over. David Miller was bowled by a Krishmar Santokie cutter for 11 off 19 balls, but the dismissal hardly dented Sammys momentum.Sammy carted Santokie for back-to-back sixes before raising his first half-century off the tournament off 32 balls, with a drilled four down the ground. Sammy celebrated the landmark by kissing the turf and bowing to the crowd. He top edged fast bowler Alzarri Joseph to long leg in the final over, but by then Zouks had passed 160. Joseph finished well with three wickets off the last four balls of Zouks innings.Joseph had started positively as well, taking a tumbling catch at third man off Sheldon Cottrell to dismiss Andre Fletcher in the second over. He then struck with his first ball to limit the contribution of Johnson Charles, who has a stand named after him at this ground, to 25 off 14 balls. Carter got rid of the Australian paair of Shane Watson and Hussey, but Sammy ensured his side ended with a competitive 174. Alex Rodriguez Jersey. That total began to look bigger when Patriots openers - Lendl Simmons and Evin Lewis - fell within the Powerplay in the chase. JJ Smuts (30) and captain Faf du Plessis (48) counter-punched, but the scoreboard pressure was too much for the visitors. They lost their last five wickets for 13 runs and ultimately fell short by 35.Left-arm seamer Delorn Johnson was the pick of the bowlers for Patriots with figures of 3 for 37, while Sammy pitched in with the wicket of wicketkeeper Devon Thomas. The ticket prices had been slashed by 50% to celebrate the first game at the ground, and the crowd lapped up Sammys all-round show.The night had begun with Sammy and Charles walking through a guard or honour, and it ended with Sammy bagging the Man-of-the-Match award. The win dragged Zouks up from the bottom of the points table. They face Barbados Tridents next at the same venue on Saturday and Guyana Amazon Warriors on Sunday. Patriots have a week-long break before taking on Trinbago Knight Riders at Lauderhill on July 29.It was a big day for Darren [Sammy] and it was important for the guys to get the win... It has been a frustrating campaign for the Zouks, and we have had rain, we played out games with breaks between games, it was tricky, Morne Morkel, who took 1 for 29, said after the match. As a bowling unit, we rely on a lot of rhythm. Hopefully, with us playing at home with back-to-back games, we will get that sort of rhythm. Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '

NEW YORK -- Christian Yelichs two-run single had chased Matt Harvey in the fourth inning and given Miami a 6-0 lead over the Mets.Tom Koehler appeared to have rebounded from consecutive poor outings, breezing through the first inning on six pitches after needing 46 to get his first three outs against Detroit last week.But a 4 a.m. arrival following their win over Atlanta at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, seemed to catch up with the Marlins.Travis dArnaud and Curtis Granderson started New Yorks comeback with solo homers, Yoenis Cespedes hit a tiebreaking, two-run double off Fernando Rodney in the eighth and Chris Johnson hit into a game-ending double play with runners at the corners. With a deflating 8-6 loss Monday, third-place Miami remained 6 1/2 games behind NL East-leading Washington and dropped 2 1/2 games back of the second-place Mets.This was the bullpens game to lose and we lost it, reliever Kyle Barraclough said. That was, just for myself, especially pathetic.Koehler, who attended nearby Stony Brook University, is an area native whose father was among the New York Police Departments first responders on 9/11. He has had problems early in games, entering with a 7.31 first-inning ERA.The bottom three in the Marlins batting order went 5 for 6 against Harvey, with Miami benefiting from the first of two video review challenges it won. Miami scored three in the second on run-scoring singles by Johnson and Koehler around Adeiny Hechavarrias RBI double. The lead doubled in the fourth when Harvey threw wildly past dArnaud to the backstop on Martin Prados bases-loaded, one-out comebacker, and Yelich followed with a single.Youre up 6-0, you feel like you should win, Marlins manager Don Mattingly said. For us it needs to be a lesson learned. Weve got to keep playing. Weve got to keep trying to score, and you cant ever let your guard down.Solo home runs by dArnaud in the fourth and Granderson in the fifth off Koehler started the collapse.New York closed to 6-4 in the sixth against Barraclough when dArnaud reached on a bases-loaded infield single and pinch-hitter Kelly Johnson grounded into a run-scoring double play. The Mets tied the score in the seventh off David Phelps on Cespedes first double, James Loneys RBI grounder and Wilmer Flores sacrifice fly.Theres going to be hiccups, Koehler said of the bullpen. Its a long season. Its unfortunate that it all happened in one night, but at the same time its a good thing that it all happened in one night because now they can go back to being as great as theyve been.DArnaud reached on an infield single starting the eighth against Rodney (0-2), who was acquired from San Diego last week and had allowed just one earned run this season. Pinch-hitter Juan Lagares sacrificed and Neil Walker drew a walk before Cespedes lined a 97 mph pitch into right-center for his third hit.Were not going to be perfect all the time, Rodney said.After Ichiro Suzuki pinch hit leading off the eighth and doubled for his 2,990th hit, J.T. Realmuto walked to reach base for the fifth straight time. Loney charged from first and turned Prados bunt into a 3-5-4 double play, and Jerry Blevins (3-0) struck out Yelich to strand Realmuto on third.Jeurys Familia walked Marcell Ozuna leading off the ninth, and Derek Dietrichs one-out single put runners at the corners. Johnsons double play gave Familia his major league-leading 29th save.We just need to kind of regroup and win these next two and gain a game and win the series, Realmuto said.STREAKINGRealmuto has hits in his last seven at-bats, one short of the Marlins record.WAITING FOR ICHIROMattingly said theres no reason to pick the 42-year-old Suzuki for a final celebratory appearance at the All-Star Game. He just talked about playing `till hes 50, so hes got another eight years, Mattingly said. So maybe like when hes 49 we can put him in the All-Star Game.TRAINERS ROOMMarlins 1B Justin Bour missed his second straight game after spraining his left ankle Saturday.UP NEXTLHP Steven Matz (7-3) starts for the Mets on Tuesday night against Miami LHP Wei-Yin Chen (4-3). Left-handed batters are hitting .328 (21 for 64) against Chen. MANCHESTER, England -- Manchester United manager David Moyes says Wayne Rooney injured his hamstring before the clubs preseason tour to Asia and Australia and dismissed suggestions the striker is set to leave the club. Rooney returned home after only one day in Thailand and is expected to be out of action for a month, placing him in doubt for Uniteds first match of the Premier League season against Swansea on Aug. 17. "The day we left (Manchester for the tour) he just felt his hamstring tighten up right at the end of training and we thought there would be no problem," Moyes said. "But after the long flight we decided wed get him tested and scanned and have a look at things, and there is just a small grade one injury there. "We wont take any chances -- there is no point in taking him any further round the world, so weve sent him back and hell get treatment.dddddddddddd" Rooney wrote on his Facebook page: "Gutted to have picked up a niggling injury especially as training was going so well, heading back to Manchester to have it assessed fully but early indications are nothing to worry about." The early return provoked further speculation about Rooneys future. Previous United manager Alex Ferguson revealed Rooney asked to leave the club at the end of last season, while Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho said Friday that the 27-year-old England international is a player he admires. "People are entitled to talk about good players," Moyes said. "I am being asked plenty about Wayne, so I am sure Jose will be getting asked about lots of players as well. "It is hard to keep repeating myself but I will do. Wayne is a Manchester United player and will remain that." Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '

Jay Rodriguez put the icing on the cake on Sunday with an 85th-minute wonder goal as Southampton came from behind to beat Bournemouth 3-1 at the Vitality Stadium.Joakim Soria Royals Jersey .As the final whistle approached the Cherries were still threatening, but their hopes were finally extinguished by Rodriguez. Nathan Redmond rode two challenges to get the ball to the striker on the edge of the penalty area, and he showed no hesitation with a stunning half-volley that dipped over Artur Boruc and into the top corner.In the first half Ryan Bertrand had pegged back Bournemouth, who had scored early, with a superb solo goal. Fourteen minutes were on the clock when the left back surged inside Adam Smith and then left Simon Francis eating dust before beating Artur Boruc from a tight angle. It was the perfect riposte to the confident hosts, who had taken the lead in the sixth minute when Jack Wilshere lofted a cross to the back post following a short-corner routine and Nathan Ake sent a diving header into the bottom corner.For the most part it was the Saints who dominated possession after that, and they took the lead soon after half time when substitute Steven Davis latched onto Sofiane Boufals backheel and clipped the ball over the onrushing Boruc for Rodriguez to tap his first into an empty net. His second was something altogether more special. Mike Moustakas Jersey . -- Al Jefferson found a groove just in time for the Charlotte Bobcats. Kansas City Royals Hoodie . The FA rejected Wilsheres appeal that the length of his punishment was "clearly excessive" and said Thursday his suspension begins with immediate effect. He will miss league matches against Chelsea on Monday and West Ham on Dec. http://www.authentickcroyalsprostore.us/Alex-Gordon-royals-jersey/ . Its 1987 and a Brazilian playmaker, known as Mirandinha, is being paraded around St James Park to the passionate Newcastle fans. TAMPA, Fla. -- A grieving Alterraun Verner never seriously considered staying home.The Tampa Bay cornerback said his late father, who died Friday, would have wanted him to play Sunday. Robert Lee Verner would have been even prouder to know his son had an interception off Russell Wilson to help inspire a 14-5 victory over the Seattle Seahawks.He was my biggest fan. He made so many sacrifices for me to get to where I am today, and I just know that he didnt want to be the cause for me not to play, Verner said. Thats why I decided to play. I wanted to honor him, knowing all he did to get me to where I am today.Jameis Winston threw a pair of touchdown passes to Mike Evans and Tampa Bays rejuvenated defense shut down Wilson, forcing three turnovers and sacking the Seattle star six times.Verners first interception of the season stopped the Seahawks after Wilson drove his team into field-goal range in the final minute of the opening half.The seventh-year pro sobbed on the sideline, where he was embraced on the sideline by teammates, whove rallied around him.I just knew what his response would have been. He would have been smiling and would have been very, very proud, Verner said. I was definitely thinking about him, and how he would have been reacting.Evans scored on receptions of 3 and 23 yards in the opening quarter and finished with eight catches for 104 yards.Winston completed 21 of 28 passes for 220 yards and one interception, while Doug Martin rushed for 87 yards on 23 attempts.The Bucs (6-5) have won three straight to climb back into contention for a playoff berth . In addition to stopping Seattles three-game winning streak, they remained one game behind first-place Atlanta in the NFC South.The Seahawks (7-3-1) were limited to Steven Hauschkas 43-yard field goal and a safety, awarded when the Tampa Bay tight end was penalized for holding while blocking for Winston in his end zone.They made their plays and we didnt, said Wilson, who threw for 902 yards, six TDs and zero interceptions during Seattles three-game winning streak.Its pretty simple. Sometimes you make your jump shots, and some days you dont, the quarterback added. Unfortunately today, we didnt hit ourss. Jarrod Dyson Royals Jersey. But we will next time.Bradley McDougald had Tampa Bays second interception off Wilson, who had thrown two in 335 attempts this season entering Sunday. Lavonte David returned a fumble 53 yards, ending another promising Seattle drive in the fourth quarter.Wilson finished 17 of 33 for 151 yards. The Seahawks were held to 1 yard net passing in the first half, when Wilson was sacked four times for 19 yards in losses.The Seahawks played without Earl Thomas , stopping a streak of 106 consecutive regular-season starts for the star safety, who had never missed an NFL game.Starting cornerback DeShawn Snead, who injured his hamstring during last weeks victory over Philadelphia, also sat out, leaving the Seattle secondary vulnerable.Winston took advantage, leading TD drives of 78 and 62 yards on Tampa Bays first two possessions. Evans first TD catch finished a 7-minute, 26-second drive. The second -- over cornerback Richard Sherman -- dumped the Seahawks into an early 14-0 hole.SELECT COMPANYEvans joined Joey Galloway and Vincent Jackson as the only receivers in Bucs history with three consecutive 1,000-yard seasons. He has 73 receptions for 1,020 yards through 11 games.On his second TD pass, Sherman appeared to complain to officials that the 6-foot-5, 231-pound receiver was holding him by the jersey while creating separation to make the catch in the end zone.WILSONS LONG DAYThe season-high six sacks and two interceptions were just part of Russell Wilsons long afternoon. Most of his season-low 151 passing yards came in the fourth quarter. Wilson had only been sacked 20 times in 10 games before Sunday.INJURIESSeahawks: In addition to playing without Thomas and Shead, they lost TE Luke Willson (knee) in the opening quarter.

SHANGHAI -- Rikard Karlberg made his World Golf Championships debut with an 8-under 64 on Thursday to take a one-shot lead over Rickie Fowler in the HSBC Champions.Karlberg has only faced a field this strong twice before in the British Open, both times missing the cut. He wanted to treat this like any other event, and on a soggy Sheshan International course, he made it look easy.Karlberg was 9 under through 16 holes and challenging the course record when he came up short on the par-3 17th, nearly in a hazard, and managed to save par. He wasnt so fortunate on the par-5 closing hole after driving into a bunker. He caught too much sand, couldnt reach the green with his third and took his only bogey.Fowler, in his first competitive round since the Ryder Cup, holed a 15-foot birdie putt on his final hole for a 65 that had him thinking about an HSBC sweep. He won the Abu Dhabi HSBC Golf Championship in January, so far his only victory this year.Fowler was particularly efficient on the par 5s, reaching two of them in two shots for eagle chances and leaving a simple up-and-down on the 14th hole for another birdie. He also chipped in from just off the green on the 17th.Defending champion Russell Lnox, Daniel Berger and Hideki Matsuyama were at 66.Rory McIlroy and Dustin Johnson never got anything going. McIlroy had a 71, while Johnson struggled to hit fairways and made only one birdie in a 74.SIME DARBY LPGA MALAYSIAKUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia -- Amy Yang took the Sime Darby LPGA Malaysia lead, and Michelle Wie had her best score in more than a year. Lydia Ko had to fight to get back to even par in her first event since firing her caddie.Yang shot an 8-under 63 -- one off her own course record -- in hot and humid conditions for a two-stroke lead over American Marina Alex. The 27-year-old South Korean player birdied all four par-3 holes at TPC Kuala Lumpur.Wie opened with a 66, breaking 70 for only the fourth time in 68 rounds this year. Winless in 57 tournaments since the 2014 U.S. Womens Open, shes coming off a season-best 10th-place tie last week in China in the Blue Bay LPGA.The top-ranked Ko birdied the par-5 18th for a 71. The 19-year-old New Zealander fired Jason Hamilton, the Australian who caddied for her since late 2014, and is using Malaysias Sargunan Suntharaj this week. Hamilton shifted to Ha Na Jang and helped the South Korean player open with a 69.Chinas Shanshan Feng, the 2014 winner, was at 66 along with Wie, Norways Suzann Pettersen, American Mo Martin, Spains Azahara Munoz and South Koreas Jenny Shin.The women are playing TPC Kuala Lumpurs East Course, a week after Justin Thomas successfully defended his title on the West Course in the PGA Tours CIMB Classic.SANDERSON FARMS CHAMPIONSHIPJACKSON, Miss. -- Kevin Streelman shot a 9-under 63 in nearly ideal conditions to take the first-round lead in the Sanderson Farms Championship.The 37-year-old Streelman had 10 birdies, including eight in an 11-hole stretch, at Jackson Country Club.Trey Mullinax, Seamus Power and Carl Pettersson were tied for second at 65. Seven others, including Lucas Glover and Camilo Villegas, were three back of the lead.Streelman is a two-time PGA Tour winner, with his last victory in 2014 at the Travelers Championship. He missed the cut two weeks ago in the season-opening Safeway Open.Defending champion Peter Malnati shot a 71. TORONTO -- As anyone who has ever tried cleaning a basement or garage filled with junk knows, things get worse before they get better. Toronto FC is at that messy stage of the clean-up. A year ago at this time, the perennial MLS underachiever was 1-10-0 in the league basement and had just fired manager Aron Winter. Today the club sports a new president, manager, chief scout, two new assistant coaches and has brought in 19 new players since the end of last season. The team is 1-6-4, proving that progress can be painfully slow. It stands 18th in the 19-team league, is winless in nine league games and has lost four straight. Toronto has shot itself in the foot, failing to take its chances while dropping nine points from six games by conceding late goals (in stoppage-time on three of those occasions). On the plus side, all six league losses have been by just one goal. "Every league game this season, you can make an argument that we could have won," said manager Ryan Nelsen. "As Ive been saying all the time, were probably the only team in the league that hasnt been beaten by two or three goals in a game yet." Some might say a loss is a loss is a loss. But hope springs eternal for Nelsen as Toronto heads to Boston for a Saturday night game with the New England Revolution (3-4-4). Count New England coach Jay Heaps in the Nelsen camp. He too sees beyond the standings when it comes to Toronto. "Torontos a good team," he told local reporters this week. The makeover has only just begun in Toronto. Nelsen all but salivates at the thought of the summer transfer window opening July 9. Currently 11 points out of a playoff place, Nelsens goal is not to lose any more ground in June until he can make more changes. "Even if thats 10 points off the playoffs come the window, Id be more than confident well have a very good chance getting in (the post-season)," he said. Asked for the reason for that confidence, Nelsen smiled and said: "Because I like the window. Its a nice time." Citing conversations with such noted managers as Sir Alex Ferguson, Sam Allardyce and Harry Redknapp, he said: "They tell me it takes three windows minimum to even get a team to where you want it to be. "And weve only had really half of one -- or one really. Were starting to get competitive and when this window comes, I think it will be a wee bit different." As a former well-respected player, Nelsen has plenty of ties in Britain. You can bet he is twisting as many arms as he can. As seems to be Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainments way (remember the 1,300-pound boulder in the Raptors dressing room and Toronto FCs "Burn the Boats" locker-room slogan), Toronto FC chose a new symbol this year for the franchise. For the most part, it seems to have been ignored in the disappointing weeks since. But new president Kevin Payne, an American, proudly pointed to the Inukshuk when he met media during the pre-season. Ignoring the Inukshuks original Inuit intent as a land marker, Toronto FC actually chose the more modern inunnguaq (or imitation of a person).dddddddddddd TFC says the Inukshuk "symbolizes co-operation, balance and unselfishness." "Each stone is a separate entity, yet each supports and is supported by the one above and the one below it. No one piece is any more or any less important than the other. Its strength lies in its unity. Its significance comes from its meaning as a whole," read a TFC handout Be that as it may, come the opening of the transfer window, Nelsen is looking to collect some better rocks. Of the 19 new faces to date, four -- Julio Cesar, Ashton Bennett, Taylor Morgan and John Bostock -- have already been cast aside. Israeli defender Tal Ben Haim never made it here although Nelsen says talks continue with his former teammate. Attacking midfielder Hogan Ephraim is slated to return to Queens Park Rangers. Veteran defender Danny Califf, brought in for his experience and savvy, has fallen so far down the depth chart youd need a dredger to find him. Califfs crime? He missed a game due to a stomach virus, never got his spot back and has dropped to the back of the bus since. He has become a US$165,000-a-year bench player, seemingly for no fault of his own. Goalie Stefan Frei, who lost his job through injury and Joe Bendiks acrobatics in his absence, is a $200,000 observer come game-time. Young Canadian international Ashtone Morgan, a holdover, is also watching from the bench these days. Jeremy Hall, who has flourished in the midfield this season after shifting from fullback, says change is part of pro soccer. "Our job is to win games and we havent won so the coaching staff and Kevin are trying to do whatever it takes to bring a winning team here," said Hall, who at 24 is on his fourth MLS team. Both Toronto and New England have injury concerns. Nelsen says his injured list includes Justin Braun, Califf, Bobby Convey, Richard Eckersley, Stefan Frei and Darel Russell. Captain Darren ODea may remain at left back, with Steven Caldwell and Doneil Henry at centre back. Ephraim is healthy and could sub for Braun. Star striker Danny Koevermans is ready to play after a 10-month absence due to a knee injury but is being held out of the game because the artificial turf at New England is where he ripped up his knee last July in a 1-0 Toronto victory. TFC has not managed a league win on the road since. Koevermans is expected to make his return next week at home to the Philadelphia Union. New England defender Ryan Guy and midfielder Stephen McCarthy will miss the game through injury while forward Dimitry Imbongo is suspended after being red-carded last week. Defender A.J. Soares (hamstring) is close to returning and Heaps can also count on 20-year-old striker Juan Agudelo who made his debut for New England last week New England is coming off a big 2-0 win in Houston. The Revolution have only scored eight goals this season, but have conceded just nine at the other end.Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '

Botulinum Toxin is an injection that doctors use to cure the wrinkles and the market name of this formula is Botox. People are using Botox all over the world. Good news for those who are living in California is that good facial surgeons are treating the wrinkles in their locality like botox cosmetic san fernando valley. Why Botox is Important? No one wants to look old with the face full of wrinkles and the lines that appear on the face when someone talks or laughs. Some of the wrinkles get prominent just with a single smile. Botox injection is the best remedy for such wrinkles because its formula weakens few facial muscles that are responsible for the lines on the face. One can make his appearance better by using Botox. Botox is not harmful and it is available on the market for decades. If you are living in California then botox cosmetic thousand oaks are the right choice. To know more about Botox please use this link http://www.dermatiqueskinspa.com/. How to use Botox? The results of Botox are not permanent so anyone who uses it has to visit the surgeon two to three times a year. Results of Botox remain for few months. For better treatment, one must visit his doctor regularly. Until yet there are no serious side effects of Botox seen but it is preferable that before having the treatment one should share his medical history and let the surgeon know if he is suffering from any allergy.

Maybe Id had a bad week (I had). Maybe I was hungover. Maybe Im emotionally fragile (no maybe about it). Or maybe it was simply this colourless corner of Londons greenbelt getting under my skin. Whatever. Out there at the crease, it felt more like I was kicking around the fag-end spillover of a provincial nightclub than a cricket match on a sunlit Saturday. And I felt it.We were winning the game. I was a few not-out. It wasnt especially tense - they hadnt got enough, and their failure to do so had left a sour taste in the air. Throughout the course of tea, their No. 4 whinged on loudly about his dismissal, which had clearly carried to second slip (I was at first). But this is second XI cricket, where a neutral umpire is a rare treat, and so theres a vacuum. And, in effect, this bloke was filling it with slurs about an oppo players probity. But thats OK, right? Because its all part of the game.Wed had a little wobble, so I was trying to bat my age and see us home. When they saw I was on the block, they crowded me. The skipper, some portly defeat in a tattered cap, announced he was getting right under his nose. And then it started. The yob cacophony.I know I should brush it off. Just a bit of banter. Come on fella, its just a laugh! And look, when the games over its a different story! Alls well that ends… with a limp handshake and a swift half before buggering off.Hes gotta be the most boring man in Essex! was the only line in amongst the standard rubbish vaguely worthy of a smile (not least for its dramatic irony), so I offered one. Because its only a game, right? And yet, as I studiously prodded the pitch between overs, I couldnt help thinking that the scavenging around the joke by the rest of his team for the next half an hour had rather undermined the bravura precision with which it was delivered in the first place.And that was my problem: I couldnt help thinking. Finally, with just a few needed: Six or gay, mate! Six or gay! A few balls later, I drove a boundary. Two to win. Next ball I ran down the pitch and skewed it straight to cover. They went berserk. Oooooooh, said mid-off as he skipped past me. Can I have your number?I didnt give it to him.A few weeks later, in the same league, our opening batsman - an old-fashioned walker - played and missed at a young bowler, whose appeal was turned down by the onfield umpire, who himself had been batting just an hour ago. The bowler gave the usual histrionics - head in hands, turf-kicking, chuntering - and went back to his mark. Very next ball, big nick, and our man walks off. The bowler turns to the umpire and spews a volley of abuse. Our umpire, not unreasonably, tells him where to stick it. It then takes five men - including two of ours, both of whom ran on to the pitch - to restrain the bowler, whod lost it completely, from kicking off there and then. Their captain was full of apologies, but the bowler, even at the end of play, remained unrepentant. In his eyes, it was all fair game.****Ive played cricket for most of my life. I love its spirit and I believe in it. Im not about to pretend that its all cress sandwiches, ice and a slice, and clapping the batsman for managing to walk to the wicket. Most teams round our way have got a couple of bigmouths who can turn the whitest air blue, and spend large portions of their Saturday afternoons seeking to do precisely that. I know ours does. Hell, even my workplace does. You know the sort - the bantz-merchants, team geezers, the chieftains of chirp. Its sometimes delivered with a smile but not always, and who cares if it hits the spot or not? The sole point is to create tension, turn the atmosphere uglier, unsettle the opponent and win the day.These are austere times for sports participation. Its a battle out there - for central funding, schools commitment and next-generation engagement. In this regard, cricket is no different.Yet in other regards… The game still means something. And how many sports can truly lay claim to that? So what about the kids who retreat from this great idea because the edges are too sharp? Or the veterans, fed up with being insulted all afternoon on their only day off? The umpires, walking off halfway through an innings and heading straight for their car, their old off-white robes of once-unimpeachable authority fluttering in the wind, as happened in our league this season? And what of the sideline pundits - invariably parents - whove never made a single mistake in their lives, vocally refusing to accept the scandalous notion that others have, and do?Second XI club cricket seems to hold a specific antipathy towards a good, fair game, says Jamie Mann, captain of the twos at Walton-on-Thames CC. All-too-common suspect club umpires, egotistical middle-aged men and testosterone-filled blokes who havent become the cricketers they had hoped to be, all help push that line where behaviour becomes hostile and unnecessary more often than most would like. You wouldnt think the question Any chance hell use the bat? would lead to the offer of substituting leather and willow for fisticuffs in the car park, but it happens, and it happens a lot.Just as neutral umpires help keep the peace, so their absence leaves a hole. The lower down the levels, the fewer paid-for umpires, and that brings its own problems. But Nick Cousins, senior executive officer at the ECBs Association of Cricket Officials (ACO), is concerned that the higher levels are being affected too. Subjectively, I think there are two negatives. One is players who would in the past have come into umpiring now saying, I dont want any of that, thank you very much. I dont want to be abused on a Saturday afternoon. And the second one, where undoubtedly existing umpires walk away from the game, certainly at Premier League and top-level recreational cricket, because they no longer enjoy their afternoons.Steve Vear, chairman of the Southern Premier League Disciplinary Committee, agrees. Sometimes what umpires are expected to put up with, in terms of poor player behaviour, can get too much. He says that educating players is the key to protecting crickets distinctive reputation. We had one example of an ex-pro, who didnt know swearing on the field of play was actually cited as illegal in the leagues code of conduct. The younger generation are often less adept at expressing their disappointment towards an umpires decision in alternative ways than to get themselves in trouble by showing dissent.If we try and pretend that the attitudes of players have not changed, then I think were deluding ourselves, says Cousins. I tend to get a bit defensive because I think its not just a problem for cricket or cricket officials. Its more of a societal issue where youre no longer conditioned to do as youre told by teachers, police, anybody in authority, including officials.And then you add into that the quite brilliant methodologies by which we can now check decisions on the big screens in major games, and you put that together and you have a rather pungent mix, which means that if an umpire gives you out on a Saturday afternoon, you dont just put your bat under your arm and walk off anymore. You give them a stare, or if you think youve hit it you point your bat at them.So is the game becoming a little less attractive for the way some of its players and watchers choose to conduct themselves? Last year there were five games abandoned because there was fighting on the field of play. Now, on the one hand you can say thats five games from many thousands. On the other, you can say its five more than we had five years ago. The idea that youd have a game abandoned because of fighting was once unheard of. And in each of those games the umpires cant do anything. Theyve got no onfield authority to send people off. Thats why we at the ACO fully support and endorse the MCCs proposal to give the onfield umpire full authority to actually deal with this behaviour.The MCCs proposals would give umpires the power to send players off for stepping out of line. We may lament the times we live in, writes Scyld Berry in the Telegraph, and the erosion of respect for authority in society as a whole. But the MCC, as guardian of the games spirit and laws, has to do something to arrest the quantifiable increases in physical violence on the field. There are obvious procedural problems here. What would have happened in our game, say, if our non-independent umpire had attempted to send off the very bowler who was giving him verbals? And should he, as a stand-in doing his 10-over stint, even be allowed to do so? As ever, the captains must show the way. The hope is that having a deterrent in place would safeguard against it kicking off at all. Im a 22-year-old skipper, says Mann, and I play cricket with my mates. But if one of my lads is completely out of order on the field, then Id happily send him off. The integrity of the game is far more important than potentially losing out on a pint from a teammate on a Saturday night.Crickets always reflected the times. I get that. Its unrealistic to hope that the game be an island. But those stolen Saturdays spent running after cricket balls and praying for an early finish are precious, and perhaps more precious than ever. One reason for crickets enduring grandeur lies in the steaming piles of grimness off the field. So lets not be reminded of it until Monday morning at least.This article first appeared in All Out Cricket magazine. OAKLAND, Calif. -- The Golden State Warriors will look to continue their recent dominance of the Utah Jazz when the Western Conference rivals meet Tuesday night at Oracle Arena.The Warriors have prevailed in 12 of their last 13 regular-seasons matchup with the Jazz, including a 106-99 win on Dec. 8 in Utah.The Jazz havent won in Oakland since April 7, 2013, which has been followed by six consecutive Golden State home wins by an average of 18.2 points per game.One season after struggling to a 16-25 road record and missing the playoffs by one game, the Jazz have gotten off to a fast start away from home. Utah began a two-game trip with an 82-73 win at Memphis on Sunday, its third consecutive road win.The Jazz are 8-5 on the road this season.These are big games for us, Jazz star Gordon Hayward said after Saturdays win. In some ways, every game is a big game for us out in the West. But this is an important week to us. We have to play well in games like these if we want to get where we want to be.Where the Jazz wants to be eventually is where the Warriors currently reside. The two-time Western Conference champs have won four in a row at home to improve their best-in-basketball record to 24-4.They are coming off one of their most impressive performances of the season in a 135-90 home blowout of the Portland Trail Blazers.The 45-point margin of victory was the largest in the NBA this season.We got our legs back, Warriors coach Steve Kerr ssaid to reporters after the victory, which came two days after a lackluster home win over the New York Knicks.ddddddddddddKerr gave the club the day off in between the games.We didnt look fresh at all, Kerr said of the New York game. The guys looked like they had that spring in their step again (against Portland). Good to see.The bad news for Utah: Golden State has had two days off since the Portland game.The clubs earlier meeting in Salt Lake City was anything but a blowout. The Jazz rallied from an early deficit to get within five early in the fourth quarter before the Warriors held on.Utah played that game without four injured starters. The Jazz had three of them back for Sundays game at Memphis, including power forward Derrick Favors, who has played three times on a minute restriction (no more than 13? in any of the three) after having missed 13 straight with a knee injury.That leaves the Jazz only without point guard George Hill, who has sat out nine games in a row with a sprained big toe. He wont play Tuesday, and isnt likely to return for at least another week.The Warriors got starting center Zaza Pachulia back from a three-game absence because of a wrist injury in the win over Portland. Pachulia and his backup, JaVale McGee, combined for 15 points and 12 rebounds in just 28 minutes in the victory. Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '

The second edition of the Pro Wrestling League will be held between January 2 and 19 next year and Delhi will be the host city for all games. Santana Moss Redskins Jersey .The tournament was originally set to begin on December 15, but was postponed owing to demonetization in India.World Champions Vladimir Khinchegashvili and Oksana Herhel, three-time Olympic medalist Mariya Stadnik, and Olympic Gold medalist Erica Wiebe are all major attractions this season.Im very happy with the new dates. We would be having ample time to be here with our family on Christmas, Wiebe said.The Indian wrestlers in the fray include Yogeshwar Dutt, Sakshi Malik, Sandeep Tomar, world champion Bajrang Punia and former Asian champion Amit Dhankar, among others.The six teams participating this year will be from Delhi, Mumbai, Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, Haryana and Jaipur, who have replaced the Bengaluru Yodhas.The second edition will follow the same format of the inaugural season with each team comprising of nine players - five men and four women; each team needs to have five Indians and four international wrestlers. The tournament will feature a total of 18 ties - 15 in the league phase, two semi-finals and a grand finale. E.J. Biggers Redskins Jersey . The scientists believe the small earthquake during a Marshawn Lynch touchdown was likely greater than Lynchs famous "beast quake" touchdown run three years ago, which also came against New Orleans during a playoff game. Russ Grimm Redskins Jersey . PETERSBURG, Fla. http://www.theredskinsshoponline.com/Youth-Jason-Hatcher-Redskins-Jersey/ . -- If Henry Burris has his way, he will be the starting quarterback to lead the Hamilton Tiger-Cats back to the Grey Cup next year. BATON ROUGE, La. -- Regardless of how much hobbled LSU star running back Leonard Fournette plays, the No. 20 Tigers remain optimistic about their prospects for gaining yards on the ground against Mississippi State.LSU sophomore Derrius Guice rushed for 155 yards in his first career start last weekend, when Fournette sat out to rest his bruised left ankle.My whole mindset when I found out (Fournette) was not playing was to fill in, get first downs, stay focused and dont miss blocks, Guice recalled.He did better than that. But then, Jacksonville State is a team in the NCAAs second-tier Football Championship Subdivision, meaning fewer scholarships and fewer big-time recruits. This Saturday night in Death Valley, there could be far more resistance from the Bulldogs, who enter Death Valley giving up only 60 yards rushing per game.LSU has labored through quarterback play so spotty that coach Les Miles replaced starter Brandon Harris with Danny Etling in the Tigers second game of the season last Saturday. Etling flourished early on, leading touchdown drives on his first few series, but his passing production was non-existent in the second half, when the Tigers needed their running game to pad their lead.Mississippi State defensive players expect to see plenty more of LSUs running game this weekend.They didnt have Leonard Fournette last week and they still had a couple guys who still tote the ball pretty good and had a bunch of big runs, Bulldogs defensive end A.J. Jefferson said. So they want to run the football. Until we stop them from running the football, thats what theyre going to do.Miles, who is often purposely vague when a players status is in doubt, has been so in regard to Fournette this week.We really want to wait until hes 100 percent and hes really closing in on that right now, so we would expect that we may have him for Saturday, Miles said.Fournette, who rushed for 1,953 yards and 22 touchdowns last season, gained 138 yards in LSUs season-opening, 16-14 loss to Wisconsin. On his last carry, he took a hard hit to his ankle, hobbled to the sidelined and hasnt played since.Mississippi State is preparing to defend him regardless.Really, its the physical challenge of when you make contact, is the pllay over? MSU defensive coordinator Peter Sirmon said of Fournette. Stephen Paea Redskins Jersey. He has the ability to bounce things and create -- not just first downs -- but hit home runs where you dont think home runs will be available. For us, its limiting yards after contact and how many hats we can get to the ball. Its 11 on one. Theres one ball and 11 of us.Even if Fournette plays, MSU can still expect to contend with the emerging Guice, who at 5-foot-11, 212-pounds, is smaller and somewhat less powerful than the 6-1, 235-pound Fournette. But Guice is explosive and shifty, and said he has become a much more refined and cerebral running back in his second season with the Tigers.I learned from last year that I have to be more patient with my runs, Guice said. I study the game more now. I have to know where every lineman is going on every play. I am more a student of the game. Thats what you do in the NFL. You practice 10 percent of the time. Then, you study and watch film.LSU has yet another change-of-pace running back in the 6-1, 233-pound Darrell Williams, who is more of a straight-ahead power runner.Were going to be very cognizant of how Leonard feels, Miles said. But were fortunate to have -- we used a kind of running back by committee with Leonard missing -- and I think it kept Derrius fresh and Darrel fresh and got some other guys in. ... Were fortunate to have real quality backs to turn to when you have a guy like Leonard Fournette out of the lineup.As long as LSUs offensive line performs well, it might not matter who carries the ball. Miles sees evidence of improvement there, and said guard Josh Boutte, who was suspended one game for a flagrant foul at the end of the season opener, will be back in the lineup.They will play better again; whether its a rotation or a spot for Josh Boutte, I think the five-some will play well, Miles said of his linemen. Theres six or seven guys here that can really play, and we look forward to them mixing and matching.---AP Sports Writer David Brandt in Starkville, Mississippi, contributed to this report---AP College Football: collegefootball.ap.org Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '

Third-seeded Murray had the easiest path to victory on New Years Eve, barely breaking a sweat during his 6-0, 6-0 win over 2,129th-ranked Qatari wildcard recipient Mousa Shanan Zayed.Former England wicketkeeper Jack Russell used to paint when he wasnt playing cricket, while India captain MS Dhoni can often be found scooting along on a motorbike. For New Zealand batsman Ross Taylor, though, time away from the middle means one thing - the chance to get his caffeine fix.Ive definitely got a coffee problem, said the Black Caps star during his stint as an IPL pundit for Sky Sports. Away from cricket, if Im not in Nandos, Ill definitely be in a café.Im getting quite fussy about my coffee now, so I need a really strong one - Im into cortados at the minute but the trouble is I cant get by with just one, its usually three or four! Ross explains how he looks to accelerate towards the back-end of a one-day innings If Taylor has been swigging fancy beverages lately, hes been doing it on the South Coast of England, having signed a deal to play for Sussex until July.The 32-year-old, who has made scores of 12 and 22 in his two Championship innings for the Hove outfit to date, is relishing his role as a senior player.I have had several enjoyable seasons at the IPL but I have always dreamed about playing county cricket, said Taylor, who played T20 cricket for Durham in 2010. I haven’t been brave enough to go to the beach yet – it’s been pretty cold, to be fair – but I may have a dip when the family arrives in a few weeks. Ross Taylor My kids will be starting school soon so I thought that before I get too old and too slow Id better come and find a team and Sussex have been very welcoming.Ive had a pretty slow start but hopefully I can score some runs and pass on some knowledge.I have played in a fair few tournaments, at home as well as in the Caribbean and India, and have learnt lots along the way, so I enjoy trying to upskill not just young players but coaches as well.But which of Sussexs young guns have impressed Taylor most? Sussex pacer George Garton played for England at this years Under-19 World Cup (Left-arm seamer) George Garton has got a big future - he is pretty raw but he is fast and has an x-factor with the ball - while I like the look of (all-rounder) Ollie Robinson, too, he said.He had an outstanding time last season and while it will be tougher for him this year with people looking out for him a bit more, I expect him to go well again, with both bat and ball.Taylor will next be in action for New Zealand in AAugust when the Kiwis embark on a two-Test tour of South Africa. Terrance Knighton Patriots Jersey. Kane Williamson is now captaining the Black Caps following Brendon McCullums retirement from international cricket prior to the World Twenty20, a tournament in which Williamson steered his side to the semi-finals. Kane Williamson is third in the ICC Test batting rankings McCullums New Zealand earned plenty of admirers - and on-field success - due to their aggressive approach to the game, but Taylor insists the future is equally bright with Williamson at the helm, even if the new captain and the old one are vastly different characters.Brendon brought the team together - he stamped his authority with the bat and as captain and really gave us the belief to go out and express ourselves, said the batsman.He was right out there and changed the field every two balls because he got bored, while Kane is a lot calmer but Kane, who will have learnt a lot from Brendon, captained well at the World T20, so the world after McCullum looks pretty rosy. The depth is as good as it has been in a long time – we’ve got 15 or 20 players who can play for New Zealand on any given day, whereas in the past we may only have had seven or eight class players. Ross Taylor on New Zealand Williamson led by example long before he was appointed skipper, the 25-year-old averaging almost 62 with the bat in Test cricket in 2014 and a whopping 90.15 in 2015, notching nine tons in that time.He is a world-class player who has been up there with Virat Kohli and Joe Root over the last few years, added Taylor. We always knew he was a quality player but he has probably exceeded expectations a little bit.I love batting with him as we do tend to get runs together, him more so than me! We bat differently, hitting balls in different areas, and he makes my job easier when I come out to the middle as he can dig in or score quickly, depending on the situation.We have a good understanding - albeit that weve run each other out a few times!The IPL is live and exclusive in its entirety on Sky Sports.

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. http://www.flyknitroshetwo.es/baratas-nike-roshe-one-espana.html . - Raiders general manager Reggie McKenzie never doubted he would bring back coach Dennis Allen for a third year despite back-to-back 4-12 records. Former WWE star Kurt Angle has revealed in a candid interview on the Dan Le Batard show that he was taking 65 extra-strength Vicodin a day at the height of his addiction problems.I was on a lot -- there was no way I couldnt get out of it, the 47 year-old-said via phone call on Friday mornings show. The only thing I could do was eventually go to rehab and try to fix my life again. But I actually beat it on my own. I stayed in my house for about 10 days and didnt leave, and I was able to get through the withdrawal.An Olympic gold medallist in freestyle wrestling in 1996, Angle joined the then-WWF in 1998 but suffered several health setbacks during his time at the company, where he became a six-time world champion.His problems with addiction started in the run-up to those Atlanta Games,?when he fractured two of his cervical vertebrae at the national trials, and required Novocaine injections in his neck to compete.He underwent neck surgery in 2003 and had to step out of the ring again in 2004, with his health issue leading to a painkiller addition which spiraled out of control.After initially beating his addiction, Angle told the Le Batard show he was put on a lower dose on another medication, and went on Xanax too because he was always getting nervous and having a lot of stress.Angle said his departure from WWE in 2006 was due to them wanting him to continue full time, despite him requesting a part-time deal. He signed with fellow American wrestling promotion TNA in September that year.?The thing is, everybody drank down there [in TNA], said Angle. So I started drinking with my meds. And then I started manipulating my meds. I would save all of them until the evening, and drink it with alcohol. And it got me inn a lot of trouble -- four DUIs in five years. Nike Roshe Two Baratas. The last of those DUIs, in Texas in 2013, convinced Angle to finally check himself into rehab to get to the root of the problem. He went for a 30-day stay at the St. Joseph Institute for Addiction in Port Matilda, Pennsylvania.I finally got the right help. he added. I tried to do it myself, but when youre that deep into that stuff, you cant do it on your own. You need somebody elses help, and I finally reached out and I did what I had to do to get it done.It was the worst seven days of my life as well. I went through detox again. That time it stuck. You cant do anything; you cant think; youre in constant pain; your bodys shaking. You dont wanna eat; you dont wanna do anything; you feel like youre gonna die. Its the worst pain youve ever had in your life. And I went through it twice.Angle said he has been clean and sober for three years now. He left TNA Impact Wrestling in January after 10 years with the company, and is now enjoying a lighter schedule, making sporadic appearances on the independent circuit to keep himself in ring shape.I havent had any triggers, he said. I think it has to do with that I dont ever want to have that feeling again. I was merciless to that drug. I was doing stupid stuff. I was desperate. I was spending a lot of money for the medication. It took control of my life. I didnt have anything else to think about than how I was gonna get that drug the next time I could get it. It was ruining my life. The worst time of my whole entire life was those three years where I was really, really deep into it. Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '

ANAHEIM, Calif. Asics Gel Lyte iii Uomo . -- Anthony Rizzo grounded out to first base in each of his first four plate appearances. Then he finally got a hit his next time up, and did even better in his final at-bat. Rizzo had a bases-clearing double in the 10th inning and the Chicago Cubs overcame a pair of homers by Mark Trumbo to beat the Los Angeles Angels 8-6 on Wednesday night. "I want to be in that situation," Rizzo said. "They made good pitches on me today, but I was able to get the big hit at the end. Even when youre feeling down at the plate, it takes one pitch, one at-bat, one swing. So thats what youve got to go by." Rookie Robert Coello (3-2) walked Dioner Navarro with one out in the Cubs 10th and Darwin Barney singled with two outs. Barney advanced on catchers indifference and Luis Valbuena walked before Rizzo doubled into the right-field corner, increasing his team-high total to 39 RBIs. "I faced him a few times before in the minor leagues, so I know thats what he likes to do -- throw the fastball in that spot," Rizzo said. "He has a splitty, too, but I know he doesnt like to throw that with runners on. So I looked for the fastball and tried to lay off everything else." Cody Ransom connected for a three-run homer for Chicago, and centre fielder Ryan Sweeney made a spectacular catch against Albert Pujols in the seventh with the Cubs clinging to 5-4 lead. Trumbo tied it at 5 in the eighth with a mammoth leadoff drive to right-centre against James Russell, and added his team-high 15th of the season in the 10th. Howie Kendrick homered and had four hits for the Angels, who have lost seven of 10 following an eight-game winning streak. "We put up a pretty good effort today, and thats what you want to see," Trumbo said. "Unfortunately, they were just a little better." Kevin Gregg (2-0) pitched the final 1 1-3 innings for the victory against his former team. He struck out Hank Conger swinging with two runners on to end the game. Mike Trout had a chance to win it for the Angels in the ninth, but Gregg came in and struck him out with a runner at third. Matt Garza pitched 6 1-3 innings for the Cubs in his fourth start off the disabled list and allowed four runs and seven hits. He benefited from a video replay reversal in the second after J.B. Shucks towering drive past the right-field pole was originally called a home run by first base umpire Jeff Nelson. Shuck came up against Garza again with one out in the seventh and hit a fly ball to the warning track that was dropped by Nate Schierholtz, who had just taken over in right field for Scott Hairston after hitting for him. "Nates a great outfielder and makes every play, so we honestly werent expecting that. But it happens," Ransom said. "You look at the good teams through history, and they pick up a guy when something like that happens. Good teams win games like that, and weve been missing that." Shuck ended up at third on the error, but was stranded there when Sweeney sprinted toward right-centre and robbed Pujols of a potential two-run double with runners at the corners. Sweeney was making only his third start in centre while David DeJesus got the day off. "I feel comfortable out there," Sweeney said. "I didnt think I could get that ball at first, but I knew obviously the importance of that run on third base, so I just ran all out to see if I could get it and I caught it right before it hit the ground." Angels lefty Jason Vargas gave up five runs and 11 hits in five-plus innings. He was making his first start since he was picked as the AL pitcher of the month because of his 5-0 record and 2.30 ERA in May. Vargas had a 4-1 lead into the fifth before Navarro and Barney singled and Ransom drove his fifth homer of the season into the lower seats in the left field corner to tie it. "The difference was the homer to Cody Ransom. Thats what got them going," Vargas said. "I feel like I made a dumb mistake. Were up three runs and I decide to go after him like it was a pretty close ballgame. Three runs isnt a huge lead, but it was definitely a mental mistake on my part. Just go ahead and go after him and make him beat us the hard way. I left a changeup up to him and that really let them back in the ballgame. I feel like that cost us the game." NOTES: Ransoms previous six home runs all were solo shots. ... The Angels are going back to a regular five-man rotation. RHP Jerome Williams is the odd man out because he is better suited to a relief role than either Tommy Hanson or Joe Blanton. ... Kendrick was 7 for 8 in this two-game set, and is 12 for 22 lifetime against Cubs pitching. ...

CALGARY, Alberta -- Marian Hossa has been in the NHL long enough to knows how to make a goal out of seemingly nothing. Mitch Morse Chiefs Jersey .Hossas team-leading 10th goal of the season with 2:23 left in the third period lifted the Chicago Blackhawks to a 3-2 victory over the Calgary Flames on Friday night.Chad Johnson threw up his glove to stop a hard shot from Artemi Panarin but the puck went off the top of his glove and high in the air. It ended up landing behind him where Hossa got his stick on it for his 80th game-winning goal.I dont think the goalie knew exactly where the puck was and the defender tried to put his stick out, Hossa said. I tried to hook on his stick so he doesnt touch the puck and the puck just bounced pretty much close to the goal line and I just tried to put it underneath me in the net.As the puck trickled over the line, Hossa was in the crease and in the process of falling on the Flames goaltender.Calgary coach Glen Gulutzan said he would have challenged for goaltender interference but he did not have a timeout left, having used it earlier in the period.Hossa, who has five goals in his last six games, is tied for fourth in the NHL in goals behind Patrik Laine (12), Sidney Crosby (11) and Michael Grabner (11).I just try to put the puck at the net right now, Hossa said. When you feel like the pucks going in for you, you just try to be around the net or shoot pucks to the net and try to make plays.Its nothing Chicago coach Joel Quenneville hasnt seen before.Hes scored some goals from right around that net here to get us a point or two and tonights a good illustration of how important hes been for us, he said.Ryan Hartman and Brent Seabrook also scored for Chicago, which has points in 12 of its last 13 (10-1-2) games. Corey Crawford stopped 28 shots.Sam Bennett and Sean Monahan scored for Calgary, and Johnson had 21 savesThese ones are tough games. I thought we played well, Gulutzan said. We needed a little bit more out of our special teams, but overall, we played a good game, its just unfortunate what happened.Down 1-0 after the first period, Calgary took the lead early in the second with two goals 3:30 apart from its new-look top line. With Johnny Gaudreau sidelined six weeks with a broken finger, Bennett has been inserted into his spot on left wing with Monahan and Troy Brouwer.Bennett jammed a loose puck past Corey Crawford at 3:33 from a scramble in the crease that was all set up by a dangerous rush from defenseman TJ Brodie.On their next shift, Monahan was credited with his fifth goal when his centering pass deflected in off the skate of Blackhawks defenseman Gustav Forsling at 7:03.Chicago tied it with about 5 1/2 minutes left in the second when Seabrook blasted a slap shot past Johnson, who was screened by Giordano.It was a power-play goal for Chicago and came on the Blackhawks first man advantage of the night.Its the same old story with special teams. Weve got to be better. If we get one on the power play, it might be a different outcome, said Bennett. Its tough to swallow right now, especially when we played a good game like we did tonight.Special teams once again let down the Flames. Their 30th ranked power play failed to score on five chances against the 30th ranked Chicago penalty kill -- while the 28th ranked penalty kill gave up one goal on one chance.The Blackhawks nearly scored in the opening minute of the first period but video review showed that Mark Giordano pulled the puck off the goal-line before it bounced past a sprawled Johnson.Hartman then gave Chicago the 1-0 lead at 7:42 when he got behind Dennis Wideman, took a perfect breakaway pass from Artem Anisimov, and while fending off the Flames defenseman, fired a shot inside the goal post.Game notes Flames LW Kris Versteeg (groin) took part in morning skate and is nearing a return. Hes missed seven games ... Calgary has gone 10 games without a goal from a defenseman. ... Chicago LW Tyler Motte (lower body) missed his fifth game, but coach Joel Quenneville says hes a possibility to play Saturday.UP NEXTBlackhawks: At Vancouver on Saturday night in the third game of a seven-game trip.Flames: At Detroit on Saturday night in the opener of a six-game trip. Joe Montana Chiefs Jersey .

LOS ANGELES -- Anthony Rizzos bat shattered into shards, and the ball trickled onto an empty patch of infield grass. The Chicago Cubs cleanup hitter scampered to first base in the ninth inning, getting just his second hit this postseason in Game 3 of the NL Championship Series.In an October of increasing offensive ineptitude, the powerful Cubs are looking for any kind of break to get them going.Thats the kind of hit that we needed, fellow slugger Kris Bryant said. Thats the hit that can spark a team.Except it didnt. This combustible offense remains quiet and cold -- and after a superlative regular season, the Cubs have been shut out in back-to-back playoff games.With its pitching staff again dominating one of baseballs best lineups, Los Angeles took a 2-1 lead in the best-of-seven series with a 6-0 victory Tuesday night over Jake Arrieta and the Cubs.If the Cubs dont find their offense before they leave LA, the most infamous championship drought in sports will stretch into next year.Chicago had never been blanked in two straight playoff games before the Dodgers did it. Chicagos 18 consecutive scoreless innings comprise the longest drought in the teams postseason history, two more than the 1906 squad.This 103-win club spent exactly one day out of first place this season, but the Cubs are trailing in the NLCS because their hitters have been silenced ever since that five-run eighth inning in a Game 1 victory.I dont gamble, but I probably wouldnt have gambled on that one, Chicago catcher Miguel Montero said.Including a 1-0 loss in Game 2, Chicago is a collective 6 for 60 with one extra-base hit over the last two games. The Cubs hadnt been shut out since Aug. 28, but Clayton Kershaw and Rich Hill did it with plenty of help from closer Kenley Jansen.This is highly unusual for the Cubs, who were third in the big leagues with 808 runs during the regular season. They had the majors second-best on-base percentage before the postseason, but baserunners have been scarce for most of their seven playoff games, and their team batting average is languishing below .200.Were not hitting the ball hard, manager Joe Maddon said. Theyve pitched well. Obviously, I have no solid explanation. Weve just got to keep working at it. ... There is really no excuse. We just have to pick it up quickly.Chicago hadnt been shut out in consecutive games since May 2014, but the Cubs never really threatened against Los Angeles -- and their best hitters realize they bear the responsibility. Albert Wilson Chiefs Jersey. MVP candidate Rizzo (2 for 26), Addison Russell (1 for 24), Jason Heyward (2 for 19), Dexter Fowler (5 for 28) and Ben Zobrist (4 for 26) are all struggling mightily in the postseason. The middle of Chicagos lineup is particularly lacking, and Maddons adjustments havent helped.The Cubs were baffled by Hill, the 36-year-old journeyman who was playing independent ball just more than 14 months ago. Hill threw six innings of two-hit ball, and Arrieta couldnt keep up in his return to the stadium where he threw a no-hitter in August 2015.The 2015 Cy Young Award winner had a middling NLCS start for the second straight season, giving up four runs and six hits to the Dodgers over five-plus innings. Last October, he gave up four runs and four hits over five innings to the Mets in Game 2 of New Yorks sweep.Maddon dropped Heyward from the lineup for Game 3, but replacement Jorge Soler went hitless and made two misplays in right field, although neither cost the Cubs any runs. Heyward struck out on three pitches as a pinch hitter to end the seventh, taking a terrible swing on a down-and-in slider from Joe Blanton.Fowlers two-out double in the eighth off reliever Grant Dayton was the Cubs first extra-base hit since Game 1, but Jansen promptly struck out Bryant. After Rizzos shattered-bat single, Jansen calmly finished off the win.The playoffs always provide small sample sizes of teams woes, but California pitching has flummoxed the Cubs through seven games in October. They didnt hit much even in the Division Series against San Francisco, batting a collective .200 with a meager .247 on-base percentage while relying on pitchers at the plate for an alarmingly big chunk of their runs in that four-game series victory.Game 4 on Wednesday suddenly looms as pivotal for the Cubs, who had five two-game skids in the second half of the season, but havent lost three straight since early July.Youre playing against great teams at this time of year, Montero said. You just try to live in the moment. And maybe you have to have a better plan. Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '
