MONTREAL — Albertas Val Sweeting improved to 6-2 at the Scotties Tournament of Hearts on Wednesday thanks to a 9-5 victory over Newfoundland and Labradors Heather Strong. Sweeting scored two in the first and three in the second before Strong (4-4) got two back in the fourth. Sweeting then scored three in the fifth, two in the sixth and one in the seventh to grab a commanding 9-2 lead. Strong replied with three in the eighth but that was as close as her rink would come. In other Draw 11 results, New Brunswicks Andrea Crawford kept pace with a 9-6 win over P.E.I. Crawford improved to 5-3, while Kim Dolan fell to 2-6. B.C.s Kesa Van Osch is also at 5-3 after a 6-5 victory over Quebecs Allison Ross (1-7).

The goalkeeper came through with a string of stops in regulation and extra time and then made the only save in a penalty shootout to send Costa Rica through to the World Cup quarterfinals on Sunday with a win over Greece. After Navas dived to his right to push out the effort by Theofanis Gekas, Costa Rica defender Michael Umana scored the decisive spot kick for a 5-3 win in the shootout, sending the team sprinting down the pitch to embrace its goalkeeper. The game had finished 1-1 following extra time, after Greece equalized in second-half injury time. “It was only a dream for us, a dream that became a reality,” Navas said. “A dream that was dreamt by an entire country.” Costa Rica will play one of the tournament favourites the Netherlands in the quarterfinals on Saturday in a surprising appearance in the last eight for the small country that has a quarter of the population of Brazils biggest city and which hardly anyone picked to even make it past the group stage. “To the entire people in Costa Rica, those at home and out on the streets, this is for you,” Costa Ricas Colombian coach Jorge Luis Pinto said. “This is a people that love football and they deserve it. … We will continue fighting. We will go on. We see beautiful things.” The victory also delighted the majority of the just over 41,000 fans in Recife as the Brazilian locals shouted for Costa Rica throughout the game and often broke out into chants of “Ole, Ole, Ole, Ole, Ticos!” — using the common nickname for Costa Ricans. Greece was often booed. Costa Rica went ahead in the 52nd minute with a coolly taken goal by captain Bryan Ruiz, but the game changed when Oscar Duarte clumsily lunged at Greeces Jose Holebas in the 66th and was sent off with a second yellow card. Pouring forward, the Greeks did beat Navas in injury time when defender Sokratis Papastathopoulos smashed in a rebound to make the teams numerical advantage eventually pay. Yet Navas kept denying the Greeks through extra time and then, crucially, when he dived, threw up a hand and pushed GGekas spot-kick away at the end.dddddddddddd “Obviously he has to be congratulated,” Greece coach Fernando Santos said of Costa Ricas keeper. “If it werent for (him), the results would have been different.” Santos was sent to the stands by Australian referee Ben Williams just before the penalties and said he watched the shootout on a television inside the stadium. “Sadness,” he said of Greeces elimination and his last game in charge of the team. “Definitely sadness. Not much (else) goes through your mind at that time.” The red card for Duarte changed the game — which Costa Rica had slowly begun to control — and Greece surged forward for most of the remainder of the match. But, with the exception of Papastathopoulos goal, they just couldnt get past Navas as shot after shot was blocked. Greece had 13 shots on target to Costa Ricas two. Navas smothered a volley from Dimitris Salpingidis from point-blank range in the first half. After the equalizer, he threw himself high to tip over a header from substitute Konstantinos Mitroglou that would have surely been the winner in the dying seconds of regulation time. He then made three crucial stops in extra time, when Costas Katsouranis, Lazaros Christodoulopoulos and Mitroglou were all denied. During the shootout, the Costa Rican squad knelt in a line. They then burst onto their feet to race over to Navas and smother him in a huddle when Umanas shot hit the net and Costa Rica made the last eight at the World Cup. “We will not stay on the quarterfinals,” coach Pinto said. “Rest assured that we will not get eliminated there.” ___ Lineups: Costa Rica: Keylor Navas; Giancarlo Gonzalez, Michael Umana, Oscar Duarte, Junior Diaz, Cristian Gamboa (Johnny Acosta, 77); Celso Borges, Christian Bolanos (Randall Brenes, 83), Yeltsin Tejeda (Jose Cubero, 66); Joel Campbell, Bryan Ruiz.

WASHINGTON — Vancouvers Vasek Pospisil got the best of Tomas Berdych — again. The Canadian improved to 2-0 against the fifth-ranked Berdych, beating the Czech star 6-2, 6-4 on Thursday night to advance to the Citi Open quarter-finals. Berdych was the top seed in the hardcourt event. Earlier, Steve Johnson knocked off another seeded, big-serving, NBA centre-sized opponent, beating ninth-seeded Ivo Karlovic 3-6, 7-6 (4), 7-6 (7). The American will face seventh-ranked and second-seeded Milos Raonic, from Thornhill, Ont., who beat No. 14 Lleyton Hewitt 7-6 (1), 7-6 (3). Berdych unofficially committed 21 unforced errors and had his serve broken four times, including the final game of each set. Two of Pospisils three career top-10 wins have come against Berdych, the first last year in Montreal. Berdych trailed 0-3 in the first set and never recovered. Pospisil, ranked 36th, only lost serve once, fighting back three of four break points. Johnson, ranked 68th, is turning into a giant killer. The fourth-highest ranked American on tour entering this week topped fifth-seeded John Isner in three sets Wednesday. The 6-foot-2 Johnson fended off 27 aces by the 6-foot-11 Karlovic after the 6-foot-10 Isner had 29. “Second day in a row (I had) to play somebody with a massive serve,” said Johnson, who is 4-1 in tiebreakers this week. “In a tiebreaker, anything can happen.” Isner double faulted in the third set tiebreaker to set up Johnson with match point. The same scenario played out Thursday, though not until Johnson fended off two match points to even the tiebreaker at 6-6. “I wouldnt say thats normal, but Im not going to complain about that,” the two-time NCAA Division I singles champion said about the beneficial double faults. Karlovics third double fault of the match gave Johnson an 8-7 lead. After serving out wide to Karlovics backhand, Johnson moved in to strike the soft return. He smacked a forehand winner into the corner to reach his fifth quarter-final in his second full season on tour. Next up, 6-foot-5 Raonic. The Wimbledon semifinalist ranks third in aces behind Isner and Karlovic. “Theyre getting shorter every day,” Johnson cracked. Sixth-seeded Richard Gasquet beat Tim Smyczek 6-3, 6-2. Seventh-seeded Kevin Anderson also advanced, beating Malek Jaziri 6-3, 6-4. Donald Young beat No. 15 Denis Istomin 6-3, 3-6, 6-3 for his second straight victory over a seeded player. In womens second-round play, second-seeded Ekaterina Makarova beat Lauren Davis 6-2, 6-4; fifth-seeded Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova topped Hiroko Kuwata 6-3, 6-3; sixth-seeded Svetlana Kuznetsova beat Kirsten Flipkens 6-4, 7-5; and Vania King routed Christina McHale 6-1, 6-3.

The steady progress of Devin Harris had a lot to do with the surge. Nowitzki scored 23 points, Harris had a season-high 16 and the Mavericks pulled away from Cleveland 124-107 Monday night, handing the Cavaliers their fifth straight loss. Nowitzki was on the bench for most of a key third-quarter stretch led by Jose Calderon, Brandan Wright and Harris, who was playing his eighth game after missing the first 41 following off-season toe surgery. “Just trying to get comfortable out there,” Harris said. “I am trying to make the most of my minutes.” Harris had seven points on a 9-2 run that gave the Mavericks their first 15-point lead, and Wright scored nine of his 14 points in the third. Jose Calderon had four of his game-high 10 assists in the quarter and hit a pair of 3-pointers. “Were just passing the ball and trying to get a really nice pace,” said Calderon, who scored 11 points. “I think it was good for us.” Kyrie Irving had 27 to lead the Cavaliers, who have dropped seven of their last eight. Anthony Bennett, Clevelands rookie No. 1 pick averaging just 2.8 points per game coming in, had eight in the second quarter and finished with 11. “There were a few instances in this game where we gave ourselves a legit chance to get into the game, but we just couldnt get over the hump,” said Irving, who scored at least 20 for the ninth time in 10 games. Dallas Monta Ellis started fast after going most of the first half without scoring Friday against Sacramento and finished with 22 points and seven assists. Harris had his previous season high of 14 points in three straight games before getting seven in Fridays win over Sacramento. He finally broke the 14-point mark with two free throws, and then assisted on a dunk by Samuel Dalembert that gave Dallas its biggest lead at 106-87. Dalembert had 18 points — two off his season high — and two blocks after not even attempting a shot and getting three rebounds when the Mavericks held on to beat the Cavaliers last month in Cleveland, despite a combined 37 poiints and 31 rebounds from Tristan Thompson and Anderson Varejao.dddddddddddd “I cant guarantee you the offence because some days the ball is coming to me and some days I only take one field goal,” Dalembert said. “What Im trying to do is make sure the guys are crashing the boards.” Five days after Cleveland general manager Chris Grant questioned his teams will, the Cavaliers didnt quit. They scored eight quick points and had a chance to make it nine when Jarrett Jack got fouled after making a 3-pointer. Jack missed the free throw, and the Cavaliers couldnt get the deficit under 10 after that. Luol Deng scored 18 points, Thompson had 17 and both had eight rebounds for the Cavaliers, who had seven players in double figures. “I thought offensively we did some nice things out there,” Cleveland coach Mike Brown said. “Weve got to keep grinding until we get out of it. The only thing we can do is work, keep our head up and keep looking forward.” Nowitzki, who was averaging 33 points in his previous three games, had 16 in the first half and matched Dalembert with eight rebounds for the game. Nowitzki scored the last eight points on a 13-2 run that put the Mavericks up 52-39, but he missed his last three shots of the first half as the Cavaliers got back within seven at halftime. Ellis followed up an 11-point fourth quarter that boosted a rally to beat Sacramento with 13 points on 5-of-6 shooting in the first half against Cleveland. NOTES: Mavericks F Shawn Marion missed his second straight game with lingering issues from shoulder and rib injuries. Hes missed six games since getting hurt Jan. 7 against the Lakers. … Varejao started after being questionable with a left knee injury. He recorded both the 4,000th point and 4,000th rebound of his career. … Rookie G Shane Larkin was back with the Mavericks after a one-game stint with their D-League affiliate in suburban Dallas. His playing time has dipped significantly since Harris return. … Ellis had six of Dallas 13 turnovers after ending a 114-game streak with at least one turnover by going without one against Sacramento. The Mavericks had a season-low four as a team against the Kings. [url=http://www.cheapnfljerseys2015.us.com/]cheap nfl jerseys[/url] ’ ’ ’

BARCELONA, Spain – Ramon Azeezs last-gasp goal gave 10-man Almeria a 3-2 win at home over relegated Real Betis on Sunday to help pull his team out of the Spanish leagues drop zone. Azeez was left completely unmarked in the heart of the area to head home Fernando Sorianos cross four minutes into injury time, provoking a small group of Almeria fans to invade the pitch. Almeria struck first in the 52nd when Aleix Vidal found Oscar Diaz at the far post, but Jesus “Suso” Fernandez saw a direct red card for a dangerous tackle on Damien Perquis one minute later. Betis took the lead through goals by Braian Rodriguez in the 60th and Salva Sevilla in the 71st. Vidal hit back for Almeria on the break in the 77th before Soriano set up the late winner from Azeez. “They went ahead and when we were about to flop, our character and toughness emerged,” Soriano said. “Our fans never give up and that is contagious.” Almeria climbed to one point above the relegation zone, pushing Osasuna down to join Valladolid as the other two teams currently in danger to join Betis in the second division next season.

Apparently this took place at a soccer stadium for a club match in Brazil.Tyler Bozak and Dave Bolland have accounted for 65 per cent of all Toronto Maple Leafs faceoffs thus far this season. With the pair of centres on the shelf for the immediate future, the team is searching for options to carry the load. Bozak has been out since incurring a hamstring injury in a loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets on October 25. He was placed on long-term injured reserve and isnt eligible to return until November 21st when the Leafs take on the New York Islanders. Bolland underwent surgery for a torn tendon in his left ankle after Zack Kassians skate blade cut it during a collison in Saturday nights loss to the Vancouver Canucks. There is no timetable set for his return. In their absences, regular centres Nazem Kadri, Jay McClement and Trevor Smith will see an increased workload, while James van Riemsdyk, almost exclusively employed as a winger in his time with the Leafs, will shift to centre a line in between Phil Kessel and Joffrey Lupul. The 24-year-old van Riemsdyk played centre for two years at the collegiate level with the University of New Hampshire, but has NHL experience is limited. Compounding the issue of using van Riemsdyk in the circle is that he is left-handed. Because of this, its not inconceivable that Lupul could step in on the draws depending on the situatiion.dddddddddddd Barring an acqusition from outside the organization to shore up the position, the team could turn to their AHL-affiliate Toronto Marlies for help. Jerred Smithson, a veteran of 588 NHL games with a career face-off percentage of just under 55 per cent, signed with the team on Wednesday and could be brought up to the big club. In more positive injury-related news for the team, Mark Fraser is ready to return. The defenceman has been sidelined with a knee injury sustained in only the second game of the season after a hit from the Philadelphia Flyers Jay Rosehill. “If it was up to me, Id like to play this weekend, hopefully on Friday,” said Fraser on Wednesday. “Today was my best day yet as far as conditioning went and comfort with no pain. It was a true test as as good as Ive felt so far.” Leafs coach Randy Carlyle was noncommittal as to when the club would dress Fraser. “We have decisions to make and hes not any different than any other time than when we have extra bodies,” said Carlyle after Wednesdays practice. “Youre going to make the decision that you feel is best for your hockey club, give you the best chance to win.” The Leafs are next in action on Friday night when they host the New Jersey Devils in the Hall of Fame game.

Téma: Jak postupovat / s many as you can get to

There is something about Labour Day in the CFL that just makes the unlikely, likely. It can make Anthony Calvillo look like he used to when he wore a Hamilton Tiger-Cat jersey all those years ago. It can make the Saskatchewan Roughriders look like the most fired-up football team on the planet. It can make the Winnipeg Blue Bombers look like a team thats lacking for confidence. It can allow an Edmonton team that hasnt been able to score a lick in three games to score 35 unanswered points on the road against a Calgary team that had been red-hot up to that point. And it can allow the B.C. Lions to win a game for once that doesnt result in Wally Buonos hair turning any whiter than it already is. And it can make the Toronto Argonauts look like a team that is deeply struggling for someone who can play quarterback with any degree of consistency. Okay, that last part isnt so strange, although the subsequent release of former starter Cleo Lemon Tuesday morning certainly qualifies as a little mysterious. Head coach and GM Jim Barker wasnt giving away secrets at practice on Tuesday but the thinly-veiled message was that Lemons visible displeasure with being benched at halftime of Fridays loss to the B.C. Lions certainly played a large part in that decision. Its also possible there was salary cap pressure on the Argos as well, with Steven Jyles coming off the nine-game injured list this week. Still, Lemons season-and-a-half in the CFL has to go down as one of the oddest CFL quarterbacking stints of all time. Lemon arrived here as an NFL veteran best known for being thrown to the wolves in the midst of an atrocious 1-15 season for the Miami Dolphins a few years back. He was anointed the Argos probable starter just days into rookie camp last season, won the job despite being outplayed by Dalton Bell during the preseason and received the unqualified support of his head coach throughout the 2010 season, despite the Argos finishing last in the league in passing. This season, with Steven Jyles injured during training camp, the job went to Lemon by default but Barker rarely gave any sense his belief in him was wavering. In fact, when he was pulled after going 11 for 15 (with three drops) against the Lions, it marked the first time in his CFL career hed ever been benched for performance. (Lemon was pulled for one series of a game last season but Barker said that was to give him a chance to watch a series from the sideline, not because he was disappointed in his play.) Somehow that all changed between the end of Fridays game, in which Lemon spent the second half standing by himself on the sideline, and the start of the school year. Barker would neither confirm nor deny whether Lemon walked out on the team, something that seems plausible given that his contract was heavily laden with bonuses for being the starter. But the end result is that Barkers bet on Cleo Lemon failed to pay off and the Argos are no closer to finding their quarterback of the future than they were when Barker took over during the winter of 2010 and cleared the quarterback decks completely. If Jyles works out during the final half of this season, the Argos will have their man for 2012. If he doesnt, its anyones guess what the plan will be. And there will be pressure on Barker to explain to his bosses why the team has failed to develop a starting quarterback through two complete seasons. - Just one more thought on Cleo Lemon. His struggles reinforce the point that former NFL quarterbacks who lose their role down south almost never succeed in Canada. (Doug Flutie would be the lone exception to this rule, but he is the exception to about a zillion rules in professional football.). If Flutie is the best former NFL quarterback ever to play in Canada, who would be second? Sean Salsbury? Jarious Jackson? The point is that if you put together a list of the top 25 quarterbacks in the CFL over the past 30 years, almost every single one of them came directly out of college with only a training camp worth of NFL experience. The point here isnt that CFL quarterbacks in general are better than NFL quarterbacks. Its the simple fact that quarterbacks who come directly from college are more willing to learn, more willing to put in the time as backups and more prepared when their opportunity comes along. It was a point worth making back when Barker signed Lemon, former Bills backup Gibran Hamden, and former San Francisco 49er Ken Dorsey before the 2010 season. And its a point worth remembering now that theyre all gone and the Argos have turned to the six-year CFL vet in Jyles to right their ship. — It is indeed hard to rationalize how a Saskatchewan team that appeared so flat under Greg Marshall could look so completely different against the team with the CFLs best record on Sunday. Its one game, and it was Labour Day Weekend, which the Roughriders have traditionally owned in recent years. But theres no doubt the players demonstrated their feeling about the return of Ken Miller to the sidelines with their play. One interesting development was Millers decision to allow quarterback Darian Durant more input into the offence, including calling his own plays. Durant bristles at the notion that he and former offensive coordinator Doug Berry didnt get along. But he admits there were times he came to the sideline with suggestions which he felt were either ignored or implemented too late to have much impact. The win at the very least gives Rider Nation hope that its season will be more than simply playing out the string. Another win this weekend in the Banjo Bowl would go a long way to solidifying that feeling. But any degree of success the rest of the way is going to beg the question of whether Miller, who turns 70 next month, will return for another season? When posed that question this past week, Miller said he thought that was unlikely, but stopped well short of saying he wouldnt consider it. - Speaking of the Banjo Bowl, too bad former kicker Troy Westwood isnt in for a cut of all the merchandise thats being moved on the Prairies to that theme. It was Westwoods comment to a bunch of reporters one day during the 2003 season that led what was once known simply as the second-half of the Labour Day Weekend home-and-home series to be branded the Banjo Bowl. For the record, what Westwood said was that people in Saskatchewan were a bunch of “banjo-pickin inbreds”, which he later followed up with a faux apology, saying “the vast majority of the people in Saskatchewan have no idea how to play the banjo.” Westwood, who had a long and distinguished career as a kicker and punter in the CFL, is destined to have the legend of the Banjo Bowl far outlive the memory of any of his kicks. -- There are five players who played during the 2010 CFL season who managed to hook onto NFL active or practice rosters. They are: Emmanuel Arceneaux – WR — B.C. Lions to Minnesota Vikings (practice squad)Bandon Browner – CB – Calgary Stampeders to Seattle SeahawksTom Johnson – DL – Calgary Stampeders to New Orleans SaintsPhilip Hunt – DE – Winnipeg Blue Bombers to Philadelphia EaglesGarrett McIntyre – DL/LB – Hamilton Tiger-Cats to New York Jets Five is actually a pretty significant number, historically, when it comes to players jumping from the CFL to the NFL. Consider that a year ago, former Saskatchewan defensive end John Chick was the only CFL player from the 2009 season to land in the NFL, and that was on the Indianapolis Colts practice roster. (Chick is still in the NFL but has moved to the practice roster in Jacksonville.) The most impressive of the five whove made it so far was turned in by Browner, who is listed as a starter on the Seahawks Week 1 depth chart, and who played so well during the preseason that it allowed Seattle to trade away a former first-round pick (Kelly Jennings) to make room for him. Browners impact is a bit surprising only because up until this past off-season, he couldnt get a sniff in the NFL. At the end of each season, I put together a list of 10 CFL players most likely to get an opportunity in the NFL the next season. For at least two years, maybe three, I put Browner high on that list. Finally, this past winter, I left him off my list, figuring that if he hadnt got a shot by now he was never going to get one. Oh well … - High hopes in Saskatchewan that former Roughrider defensive end John Chick would return appear to have been extinguished. For the second year in a row, Chick was offered a spot on the Indianapolis Colts practice roster. He turned that down to accept a spot on the practice roster of the Jacksonville Jaguars. - Former University of Sherbrooke receiver Sam Giguere is apparently in no hurry to come to the CFL. The 2008 draft pick of the Hamilton Tiger-Cats was cut this summer by the New York Giants. And having spent the past three seasons on NFL practice rosters (two with the Colts and one with the Giants) he is only eligible to be on an NFL active roster. — The B.C. Lions decision to trade for Arland Bruce a month ago was criticized in many corners as a move of desperation. Bruce, after all, was a non-factor on offence with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats and it appeared the decline that sets in on almost all receivers as they reach their mid-30s was beginning to set in. But after an uninspiring debut with the Lions, Bruce has bounced back with 15 catches for 180 yards and three touchdowns the past two weeks. — Not to take anything away from the Hamilton Tiger-Cats 41-point output against Montreal, but it should be noted that the Als entered that game missing four starters on defence – Etienne Boulay, Mark Estelle, Shea Emry and Jerald Brown. — On a day with perfect conditions for throwing the football, two of the CFLs top quarterbacks – Ricky Ray and Henry Burris – combined for 263 yards passing during Mondays game. - Edmonton Eskimos did not allow a sack on Monday after allowing 14 in their previous two games against B.C. and Montreal.

General manager Dave Caldwell made it clear Thursday that there is no firesale taking place in Jacksonville, which is 0-4 for the third time in franchise history and has scored a league-low 31 points. Caldwells comments came two days after he traded starting left tackle Eugene Monroe to the Baltimore Ravens in exchange for two third-day draft picks in 2014. There had been reports that trading Monroe might be the first step in a series of moves, and Jones-Drew and Posluszny were widely regarded as guys who could be next because they have value. Jones-Drew has rushed for 7,406 yards and 64 touchdowns in eight seasons. Posluszny ranks second in the NFL in tackles with 40. “Theyre not going anywhere,” Caldwell said. “We feel good about those guys being here, nor do they want to go anywhere. Theyre part of this team and were excited about having them a part of this team.” The Jaguars got a fourth and a fifth-round pick in return for Monroe, the eighth overall pick in the 2009 NFL draft.dddddddddddd Jacksonville now has 10 picks in 2014. “Youd like to have as many as you can get to build because you can trade for future picks,” Caldwell said. “Sometimes you can take a 4 and turn it into a future 3 and take a future 3 and turn it into a future 2 and eventually you end up with two 1s at some point. It gives you a lot of flexibility. They always say cash is king, and in the NFL, draft picks are kind of your cash.” Caldwell said in-season trades are difficult to orchestrate, which makes any more unlikely. “Theres a lot of speculation about trades and what teams should do and shouldnt do,” he said. “Its hard to make a trade in season. Things really have to align the right way. You have to have a buyer. You have to have a seller. The team has to have salary-cap space. The team has to be willing to part with their player, and its not like its easy to fill in.” [url=http://www.cheapnfljerseys2015.us.com/]cheap nfl jerseys[/url] ’ ’ ’

I think as times got tight for us guys stepped up and made big plays.Gerald Wallace had 21 points and nine rebounds for the Blazers. Wesley Mathews added 16 points.Reserve Lou Williams had 12 of his 25 points in the second quarter and two clutch 3-pointers at the end for the Sixers, who are 0-1 on their season-opening five-game road trip. Andre Igoudala had 22 points and eight rebounds. The Sixers shot 48 per cent from the field, but the Blazers took 97 shots to Philadelphias 83.They are a good team and they take away a lot of things with their energy and their defence, Philadelphias Elton Brand said.The 76ers got within 72-70 on Brands jumper near the end of the third, but the Blazers got a spark from their small lineup, sliding Aldridge and Wallace to centre and power forward and getting up and down the floor faster. Jamal Crawford, Wallace, Matthews and Nicolas Batum all hit 3-pointers to put the Blazers up 95-80.When we go small like that if they double team we have a bunch of guys that can make plays, Aldridge said. Thats probably our most lethal offensive lineup.The Sixers werent dead, though. Williams scored 10 straight for Philly, including back-to-back 3-pointers to cut the lead to 106-103 with 16 second remaining. The game wasnt over uuntil Igoudala missed a 3-pointer and Raymond Felton made one of two free throws to ice it.ddddddddddddOur competitive will kept us in the game, Philadelphia coach Doug Collins said. Our competitive will was strong; our execution has to get better.Philadelphia overcame a 3-13 start last year to finish 41-41. The Sixers lost to Miami in the first round of the playoffs last season. Leading scorer Igoudala returned despite rumours that he might be traded.Portland is adjusting to life without All-Star guard Brandon Roy, who was forced to retire this month because of recurrent knee injuries. Portland also begins the season without Greg Oden, who has undergone two microfracture knee surgeries and has not played in two years.The Blazers went 48-34 last season and were bounced in the first round of the playoffs by Dallas. After losing Roy, the Blazers strengthened their team by signing veterans Crawford and Kurt Thomas.The Blazers led by as many as 13 in the first quarter as the Sixers missed 11 of their first 16 shots, but Williams keyed a rally in the second quarter to cut the lead to 48-44 at the half.McMillan expects Portland to run more this season. He was unhappy when the pace slowed down at times.I thought we were up and down, he said. We would get to our tempo and the start to walk it down and I think thats due to conditioning.Notes: The Blazers have won 12 consecutive home openers. … The teams split the series last year, with both teams winning at home. … Philadelphia C Spencer Hawes had just missed a triple double for the 76ers, with 10 points, 14 rebounds and 9 assists.

MONTREAL — Thousands of hockey fans jammed into downtown Montreal on Wednesday night after the Canadiens clinched their playoff series against the arch-enemy Boston Bruins to move closer to their first Stanley Cup in more than 20 years. Droves emerged from downtown bars, while many of the 21,000 people who packed the Bell Centre to watch the Habs 3-1 victory over the Bruins on giant screens also hit the streets. As the game played in Boston came to an end, even Montreal police officers stationed on Ste-Catherine Street pumped their fists in celebratory manner. Outside the Bell Centre after the game, someone put a Bruins jersey on a hockey stick and set it on fire as people began stomping on it. Riot police intervened immediately and hauled it away while a raucous crowd continued cheering and screaming, “We Want the Cup.” Some fans set off fireworks in what initially looked like peaceful celebrations. Police reported fewer than 10 arrests, mostly for mischief, less than an hour after the game had ended. Many fans stood on other peoples shoulders and chanted the names of their hockey heroes as police guarded the stores on Ste-Catherine. The victory sent Montreal — the only Canadian team to make the NHL playoffs this year — into the Eastern Conference final against the New York Rangers in a series that begins Saturday afternoon. The Canadiens are looking for their first Stanley Cup since 1993. Prime Minister Stephen Harper hailed Montreals victory with a tweet: “Great to see a Canadian team finally take out the Bruins in a game 7.” Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau tweeted, “Bravo les boys!” The Bell Centre was a sea of red, white and blue during the decisive match as fans took advantage of $10 tickets to watch the game 500 kilometres away. Some of the proceeds were destined for a Canadiens charity fund for children. There were reports of people selling tickets for $50 in the hours leading up to the game. Mario Trudelle attended the game with his wife, their two children and three other kids. Everyone in the gang was wearing a Canadiens top except one young Bruins fan. “We accept everybody,” said Trudelle, who predicted a 4-2 Montreal victory. Team spokesman Donald Beauchamp said the 21,000-odd tickets sold out in two hours. Police were hoping the event wouldnt turn into a repeat of 2010 after fans at the Bell Centre watched the Canadiens eliminate the Penguins in a game played in Pittsburgh. Mayhem ensued in downtown Montreal, with store windows smashed and rioters clashing with police. Police have beefed up their playoff presence in recent years and always have a strong visibility downtown before and after games, particularly for series-deciding matchups. A team spokeswoman confirmed that alcohol would be sold at the Bell Centre on Wednesday night Beauchamp said authorities have done a good job “as far as prevention with what happens post-Canadiens games.” “What happened in the past was not necessarily people who were at the venue,” he said. “It was people who were not necessarily in the building.” [url=http://www.canadiensjerseysofficialteamshop.com… Tinordi Jersey[/url] .

The forecast Monday calls for heavy rain throughout the day.ANAHEIM, Calif. — Dan Ellis learned a few things about the Anaheim Ducks top scorers during 1 1/2 seasons as the teams backup goalie, and he put all that knowledge to work in a breakthrough victory for the Dallas Stars. Ellis made 26 saves against his former team in his 14th career shutout, and Trevor Daley scored in the Stars 2-0 victory over the Ducks on Saturday night. Ellis played in 23 games as a backup in Anaheim from February 2011 to 2012, but did his best work while absorbing innumerable shots in practice from Ryan Getzlaf, Corey Perry and Teemu Selanne. Ellis used that familiarity throughout his second victory over the Ducks this season, even denying Perrys point-blank chance in the final minute by getting an outstretched pad in front of an open net. “Ive practiced with them, and I understand some things they like to do,” Ellis said with a smile. Captain Jamie Benn added an empty-net goal with 28 seconds left for the Stars, who snapped a five-game road skid with one of their biggest wins of a mediocre season. Ellis had sat out the Stars previous nine games since Jan. 12, and he acknowledged a bit of game rust in his return. But Kari Lehtonens veteran backup posted Dallas third shutout victory in its last six games, and coach Lindy Ruff said Ellis probably will get more playing time in the final week before Lehtonen and Ruff head to the Olympics. “He gave us a rock-solid game,” Ruff said of Ellis. “We only had a couple of big breakdowns, and he was there for us.” After the game, Ellis met up in the hallway between the dressing rooms with Jonas Hiller, the Ducks starter during Ellis time with the club. “I loved my time here,” Ellis said. “Its still the best place Ive ever played and lived in, but it was good to get these two points for us.” Hiller stopped 25 shots for the NHL-leading Ducks, who were shut out for the first time all season. Anaheim has lost three of five at Honda Center after opening the season 20-0-2 at home. At the start of a four-game stretch over eight days before the Olympic break, the grind of the regular season is finally hitting the Ducks aafter two spectacular months.ddddddddddddAnaheim is 4-4 since Jan. 15, but still five points ahead of defending champion Chicago atop the overall standings. “We didnt have any sustained pressure,” Anaheim coach Bruce Boudreau said. “Against a team like Dallas, you have to win the board battles. If you dont win them, their speed is so good, its going to be a real tough game for you.” The Ducks played without third-leading scorer Nick Bonino after the versatile centre injured his wrist. Boudreau also scratched healthy offence-minded forwards Dustin Penner and Kyle Palmieri. While Anaheims roll has slowed, Dallas is looking to build momentum into the break during a three-game West Coast trip over the next five days. The Stars began the day in an 11th-place tie in the Western Conference. After a scoreless first period, Daley got his fourth goal of the season early in the second on the rebound of a shot by centre Cody Eakin, who blew by Patrick Maroon to create the chance. Only Hiller kept the score close with a handful of stellar plays in the final two periods, including a post-to-post toe save on Rich Peverley late in the second. Hiller has lost his last three home starts after his franchise-record 14-game winning streak ended last month. “It seems like one game we play pretty good, then the next game it seems like weve lost everything again,” Hiller said. “We dont have that consistency. You cant just always think you can come back in the third period to win a game.” Anaheim had several decent chances in the final minutes, but was shut out for the first time since last March 27. The Ducks also lost defenceman Mark Fistric to a lower-body injury early in the game. NOTES: Along with Bonino, the Ducks had three prominent healthy scratches who have combined for 90 points this season: Penner, Palmieri and D Bryan Allen. … Just 41 seconds in, Eakin skated to the Stars dressing room with a bloody cut on his face after he got hit by the puck. He returned for the second period. … Daley has three goals in his last 10 games after scoring just once in his first 31 this season.

Hes a Hall of Famer now, but Stephen Ames isnt ready to give up playing golf just yet. Ames was unanimously named for induction into the Canadian Golf Hall of Fame on Wednesday, becoming the 74th member of the countrys golfs shrine. And with Ames poised to celebrate his 50th birthday in April, the Calgary resident is planning to play events on both the PGA and Champions Tours in 2014. “Usually you think Hall of Famers are inducted when theyre finished playing,” Ames said during a conference call from West Palm Beach, Fla. "I still see myself as a player right now. “Its a great honour, for sure, without a doubt.” Ames induction ceremony is expected to be in Calgary in August during the Shaw Charity Classic, a Champions Tour event that Ames is a founding patron of. “The Canadian Golf Hall of Fame seeks to recognize excellence as golfers, contributors and supporters of the game,” said Ian Clarke, the chairman of the Canadian Golf Hall of Fames selection committee. “Stephen Ames has excelled on the biggest stage in our sport and it is fitting that he will be recognized for his respective accomplishments.” After attending Lynn University, Ames turned pro in 1987. A dual citizen of Canada and Trinidad and Tobago, Ames has recorded 11 career wins. Four have come on the PGA Tour, where he has earned over US$19.5 million. Ames first Tour win came July 4, 2004 at the Cialis Western Open, finishing two strokes ahead of American Steve Lowery. His last victory came in 09 at the Childrens Miracle Network Classic in a playoff with Justin Leonard and George McNeill, both of the U.S. Ames has also won on the European and Nationwide Tours as well as three skins events, including the 05 Telus World Skins Game in Whistler, B.C. when he finished ahead of Jack Nicklaus, John Daly and Vijay Singh. He finished second behind Daly in the 06 event held at Banff, Alta., and third in 07 in Thornbury, Ont. A career milestone came in 06 when Ames captured The Players Championship by six strokes over Retief Goosen. The win was worth US$1.44 million and moved Ames into No. 27 on the official world golf rankings at the time. But Ames said receiving the Hall of Fame nod has surpassed that as a career highlight, although he considers the 2006 win his biggest ever on a golf course. “It was a week of complete mental control, which we all know is very difficult to do, day in and day out,” he said. "On the course, that would be it. “Off the course, being inducted into the Hall of Fame. Its very prestigious, very nice.” Ames also made headlines of a different sort that year. When asked about top-ranked Tiger Woods prior to the 06 WGC-Accenture World Match Play Championship, Ames quipped: “Anything can happen, especially where hes hitting the ball.” The next day, Woods thrashed Ames 9 and 8 in their match. Afterwards, Woods was asked about Ames comments and simply answered, “9 and 8.” Ames is also active off the course. Last year, the Stephen Ames Foundation funded the inaugural CJGA Stephen Ames Junior Cup. And since 2005, he has hosted the Stephen Ames Cup, a Ryder Cup style tournament featuring a team of Canadian junior players versus a team from Trinidad and Tobago. His foundation also provides funding for junior golf programs and other childrens initiatives in Canada and Trinidad and Tobago. Ames is also involved in the construction of a golf course in Calgary that he hopes will host the Canadian Open by 2018 or 2020. Ames continues to put together his 2014 tournament schedule, adding he has exemption status on the PGA Tour this season. But he said having two separate circuits to choose from is indeed a luxury. “If I miss a few events at the start of the year, I have the option of playing on the PGA Tour or the Champions Tour,” he said. "There are a couple of weeks where Im not going to be able to play in invitationals (on PGA Tour) but I can play in some of the majors on the Champions Tour. “Thats a wonderful opportunity that I have and an option as well, so lucky me.” The Champions Tour is a circuit for golfers 50 years of age and over thats run by the PGA Tour. And while the Champion Tour competitors might be older, Ames said they still have the burning passion to compete. But there are subtle differences between the two golf Tours that Ames says hes going to enjoy. “The 19th hole might be a little different,” he said. "The guys are definitely a little more relaxed after a round of golf and I think the camaraderie is going to be a little lighter, which is fantastic. “Its like playing with your buddies. You finish a round of golf and you go to the bar and have a drink and talk about your round . . . this is going to be a nice setting for me, I quite enjoy that.” [url=http://www.panthersjerseysofficialshop.com/blac… Kuechly Panthers Jersey[/url] .

Folaus second-half tries clinched the Waratahs third bonus-point win. The Waratahs took an 11-8 lead to halftime after an indecisive first spell but tries to Folau and Peter Betham in the first eight minutes of the second half gave them breathing space. Folau then earned the bonus point with his second try seven minutes from fulltime. Folaus tries again came from his developing partnership with Wallabies inside centre Kurtley Beale. Beale made a line break and delivered an inside pass to Folau to set up the first try in the 48th minute, and again split the defence then slowed and held the ball up under pressure to lay on the second. “It was a tough game to be honest,” Waratahs captain Dave Dennis said. "They put a lot of pressure on us in that first half. “Going into halftime it was a very even contest but we just talked about sticking to our game in the second half, and to come away with four tries was a very pleasing effort.” No. 8 Dennis was part of a highly effective loose forward trio with openside Michael Cooper and former Springboks flanker Jacques Potgeiter, who was hugely industrious as was lock Will Skelton. Beale gave the Waratahs the key that unlocked thhe Rebels defence, which had been extremely resilient through the first half.dddddddddddd Winger Alofa Alofa gave the Waratahs the lead after only three minutes with a try which followed a break by Potgeiter but the Rebels hit back with a try to captain Scott Higginbotham, his 25th in Super Rugby. Bernard Foley kicked two penalties for the Waratahs and Bryce Hegarty one for the Rebels, leaving a three-point gap between the teams at the interval. The Waratahs took the game away from Melbourne with the tries to Betham and Folau immediately after the restart. They almost had another, through Dennis, but that was denied when television replays showed a knock-on by Potgeiter in a preliminary phase. The Rebels again resisted strongly through the middle of the second half and handling errors prevented the Waratahs scoring again until the 73rd when Folaus second try gave them the comfort of a bonus point. The Rebels remained without a win in Sydney in Super Rugby, though they competed strongly at times. “Its disappointing,” captain Higginbotham said. “They defended well. We worked hard and kept getting into their tryline area but just let ourselves down and let them off the hook.” -—— New South Wales Waratahs 32 (Israel Folau 2, Alofa Alofa, Peter Betham tries; Bernard Foley 3 conversions, 2 penalties), Melbourne Rebels 8 (Scott Higginbotham try; Bryce Hegarty penalty).

JOHNS, N.L. — Eddie Pasquale made a show-stopping glove save with 54 seconds left to hold onto the lead for the St. Johns IceCaps in a 4-2 win over the Portland Pirates Tuesday night in American Hockey League action. Carl Klingberg scored twice, including an empty netter, while Ben Chiarot and Andrew Gordon also scored for the IceCaps (18-14-3). Tobias Rieder and Lucas Lessio replied for Portland (14-13-5).

TORONTO — Liam Underwood could have been playing for Queens University on the weekend, looking to take down the Western Mustangs in the OUA rugby final. Instead the 22-year-old fly half found himself starting for Canada against the New Zealand Maori All Blacks. The Kiwis, a renowned invitational side of Maori descent, showed their superiority in scoring six tries en route to a 40-15 win Sunday over a depleted Canadian side. “Theyre fast,” said Underwood, a fourth-year economics student from Toronto. “Thats the fastest rugby Ive played in a long time. Or ever, probably.” Making just his third start while earning his sixth cap for Canada, Underwood survived a crunching 14th-minute tackle that may have had friends and family cringing in the stands. “Thats rugby,” he said with a smile later. “You get hit.” He also noted that his Queens team hadnt needed him in the OUA final, defeating the Mustangs 40-10. Both Canada and the Maori made plenty of mistakes. That was perhaps not surprising for a Maori side that only had a few practices under its belt since coming together a week ago. But for Canada, it probably demonstrated what can happen under the pressure of facing elite opposition. Jamison Gibson-Park, a late addition to the Maori starting lineup when veteran scrum half Piri Weepu was ruled out in the pre-game warmup with a knee problem sustained in training, scored two tries for the visitors. Zac Guildford, Robbie Robinson, Matt Proctor and Nick Barrett also scored tries for the Maori. Andre Taylor and Robinson each kicked two conversions with Ihaia West contributing another conversion. Guildford was named man of the match. Jeff Hassler and captain Aaron Carpenter scored tries for Canada. Underwood contributed a penalty and a conversion. While Canada lost, you could argue Canadian rugby still emerged a winner. A sellout crowd of 22,566, on a sunny, crisp six-degree day at BMO Field, probable made Toronto FC think back to what once was. And the Canadians open style of play drew praise from the visitors. “They played really well, especially in that first 40 (minutes), they shocked us with their style of attack,” said Maori captain and fly half Tim Bateman, a veteran of 50-plus Super Rugby games. “We expected them to be a little more narrow and brutal, but they played with a lot of width and a lot of intensity and they probably caught us off-guard for a large part of the game.” While Maori coach Colin Cooper acknowledged his team was rusty, he too applauded Canada. “Canada defended very well and they surprised us with their width and the way they attacked,” Cooper said. "And we had to defend a lot more accurately than we should have. Bateman was also complimentary of the Canadian fans. “This crowd was outstanding. It really was. It was loud, it was vocal. It made it really tough for our calls. We mucked up quite a few times because of the crowd.” Canadian coach Kieran Crowley, a former New Zealand international, saw positives but was left to lament errors and missed chances against a fully professional side. “That was the difference between the teams, I think. When they got an opportunity, they converted it. When we got an opportunity, we didnt quite nail it.” Canada started well and took an early 5-0 lead but the Maori began to turn the screws. While the Canadian scrum withstood the New Zealand challenge, the visitors edge in skills began to take its toll and Canada trailed 19-5 at the half. “We played a lot of rugby in that first half. Our skill level just let us down a couple of times,” said Crowley. The Canadians continued to show grit in the second half but Maori pressure eventually paid dividends as the visitors piled on the score with 14 points in the last 10 minutes. “We gave away three soft tries in the second half,” Crowley said. The Maori are not to be confused with the world champion All Blacks, New Zealands national team which opened its November Northern Hemisphere tour Saturday with a 54-6 win over No. 15 Japan. The Maori side has added All Blacks to its name for branding reasons. Weepu, who did nott see action and limped to the dressing room after the game, still led the haka - a traditional pre-game challenge.dddddddddddd The Maori performed it in the shape of an arrowhead, while the Canadians looked on from the halfway line. The Maori have their own haka, distinct from those of the All Blacks. Called Timatanga, it was written especially for the team by elders. Canadian forward Tyler Ardron said facing the haka was like getting a loud rugby wakeup call. “Its gives you like a pinpoint time when that games going to start,” he said. “You know that theyre going to bring it and youre going to have to match it.” The Maori starting 15 Sunday featured four All Blacks in winger Guildford (19), prop Ben Afeaki (1), hooker Hikawera Elliot (3) and lock Jarrad Hoeata (3). Elliot left midway through the first half due to injury. They also showcased some future All Blacks, including 21-year-olds Gibson-Park and West. Gibson-Park plays Super Rugby for the Auckland Blues while fly half West was one of the stars of the recent ITM Cup competition with Hawkes Bay. Their play will be noted. The Maori are closely monitored by the All Blacks, whose braintrust now plays a role in selection. Outside of the Rugby World Cup, Sundays match was about as high-profile as it gets for Canadian rugby. In addition to the sellout crowd, the game was televised live in Canada and New Zealand (where the kickoff was 7 a.m. local time) and streamed live on the International Rugby Boards website. Unfortunately for Crowley, a former New Zealand international, Canadas starting 15 was nowhere near its strongest. Because of injuries, personal commitments and the fact that the match falls outside the IRBs international window, Canada was without such key players as Jebb Sinclair, Jamie Cudmore, James Pritchard, Phil Mackenzie and DTH van Der Merwe. Another half-dozen players were also missing, with Crowley forced to assemble a forward pack missing four of his top second-rowers. Canadas bench was also green, while the Maori had plenty of fully professional weapons. As a Tier 2 nation, Canada no longer plays rugbys elite outside of the World Cup. The last time they met, at the 2011 world championship, New Zealand thumped the Canadians 79-15. The 14th-ranked Canadians leave Monday for a European tour for test matches against No. 16 Georgia in Tbilisi on Saturday, No. 17 Romania in Bucharest on Nov. 16 and No. 22 Portugal in Lisbon on Nov. 23. They will be reinforced by several of their European-based pros. The Canadians will likely board the plane with more than few bumps and bruises. The Maori head to Philadelphia to play the 18th-ranked U.S. Eagles on Saturday. -- Canada Hubert Buydens, Manawatu Turbos (New Zealand), Saskatoon, Ray Barkwill, Niagara Wasps, Niagara Falls, Ont.; Doug Wooldridge, Lindsay RFC, Lindsay, Ont,; Jon Phelan, Lille Metropole Rugby (France) Montreal; Tyler Ardron Ospreys (Wales), Lakefield, Ont.; Nanyak Dala, Castaway Wanderers, Saskatoon; John Moonlight, James Bay AA, Pickering, Ont.; Aaron Carpenter (capt.), Cornish Pirates (England), Brantford, Ont.; Phil Mack, James Bay AA, Victoria; Liam Underwood, Queens University, Toronto; Conor Trainor, UBCOB Ravens, Vancouver; Harry Jones, Capilano RFC, West Vancouver; Ciaran Hearn, Castaway Wanderers, Conception Bay, N.L.; Jeff Hassler, Ospreys (Wales), Okotoks, Alta.; Matt Evans, Cornish Pirates (England), Maple Bay, B.C.

ST. LOUIS — For now, its business as usual for Gregg Williams, who is on the job behind closed doors with the rest of the St. Louis assistant coaches. The parking lot at the teams training facility is full this week because theres plenty to do. Free agency starts next week, and there will be minicamps before and after the draft for the Rams, plus theyre all still getting to know the roster. Theres that No. 2 overall pick to deal with. It cant hurt staying busy while waiting for the hammer to fall. Williams, the Rams new defensive co-ordinator, is facing a possible suspension and fine after admitting that he ran a bounty pool of up to $50,000 over the past three seasons when he was the defensive co-ordinator in New Orleans. The NFL said players received payoffs for knocking targeted opponents out of the game. Whether Williams is shelved for two weeks, a month or longer, the Rams must make contingency plans. Aside from releasing Williams apology, the franchise that inherited this scandal has had little to say. Players and coaches are not being made available for interviews. “Coach Williams has shown contrition for his actions and continues to co-operate with the NFL in this investigation,” Rams chief operating officer Kevin Demoff said in a statement Thursday to The Associated Press. “Out of respect for the NFLs ongoing process, we will refrain from commenting until the league has come to a final decision on all aspects of this matter.” New coach Jeff Fisher was out of town and he isnt talking, either, until the NFL issues its ruling. Williams met with NFL security officials on Monday as part of the leagues investigation; no timetable has been disclosed by the league for a decision from Commissioner Roger Goodell. Dick Vermeil, who has 19 years of NFL coaching experience including the Rams lone Super Bowl win in 2000, said in a telephone interview that he was unaware of any bounties during his coaching career. “There were always rumours, but often it seemed like something of a joke, like youd hear kids were throwing in 50 bucks apiece,” Vermeil said. “Hopefully, this is isolated, hopefully the story doesnt get bigger as the investigation goes deeper.” Like many players, Vermeil said he believes Williams reputation is solid around the league. “Sometimes you can get caught up in the enthusiasm and intensity of the game and it overpowers your judgment,” Vermeil said. “But I like him, hes a good man, and he made a mistake.” Williams punishment could be stiffer given the NFLs emphasis the last few seasons on reducing concussions — the definition of a knockout. “That has been a big issue, and now this comes up,” Vermeil said. “I think it almost puts them under pressure to react more strongly when something like this is going on.” Assistant head coach Dave McGinnis is the logical fill-in candidate at defensive co-ordinator should Williams be suspended. McGinnis is a former NFL head coach and has an extensive background in defence, including five years as the Cardinals defensive co-ordinator from 1996-2000, and great success coaching linebackers under Fisher in Tennessee. McGinnis built his reputation in a decade as linebackers coach with the Chicago, working with defensive co-ordinator Buddy Ryan and tutoring Hall of Famer Mike Singletary.

NEW YORK — Carmelo Anthony had plenty of help against the struggling Philadelphia 76ers. Tim Hardaway Jr. scored 28 points as the New York Knicks had four players score 20 or more points and defeated Philadelphia 123-110 on Monday night, sending the 76ers to their 17th straight loss. Amare Stoudemire added 23 points to tie a season high, and Anthony and J.R. Smith each scored 22 as the Knicks won their fourth game in a row and fell just short of their season-high points total. “I love nights like this,” Anthony said. “Four guys with 20-plus points. Sharing the ball. Making plays. Having fun out there. Taking the load off me. I love nights like that.” Hardaway did most of his scoring in the fourth quarter, opening the period with a 3-pointer and making five of his eight shots, including three 3-pointers as the Knicks six-point lead entering the final quarter grew to as many as 21. Overall, he scored 13 in the final 12 minutes. “I was just trying to get myself open,” Hardaway said. “I just came in today and I just started hitting my shots. Everyone was moving the ball and taking open shots. Stat got us going. J.R. was getting going and then Pablo (Prigioni) and everybody started finding me, so I just wanted to get myself going.” Stoudemire started his fifth straight game for the Knicks. He had come off the bench in all but one other game this season. "It feels great, Stoudemire said. “I have been working extremely hard to get back to my normal self. My confidence is there. It never left.” Michael Carter-Williams recorded a triple-double with 23 points, 13 rebounds and 10 assists for Philadelphia, mired in its longest skid since the 1972-73 season. “I am trying not to think about it,” Carter-Williams said. “We lose and we have to move on to the next one. People are writing about it and thats fine, but we are going to stay focused as a team.” Philadelphia did get off to a good start, taking a 29-17 lead on James Andersons 3-pointer with 2:45 left in the first quarter. Smith scored 12 of his points in the opening quarter. "We were just trying to chip away at it,&quoot; Smith said.dddddddddddd. “Weve been in that situation numerous times this year, so we just tried to chip away at it and not hit any home-run plays.” The Knicks did pull to within five at the end of the quarter and were even at 61 at halftime. The 76ers took a 67-66 lead following two free throws by Jarvis Varnado with 10:22 left in the third quarter, but the Knicks scored the next eight points to take a 74-67 lead. The lead was short-lived, however, as Philadelphia countered with its own 8-0 run to reclaim a one-point lead. After Thaddeus Youngs short jumper gave Philadelphia a 79-78 lead, the Knicks went on a 9-0 run with Anthony scoring the final five points to give the Knicks the lead for good. “We finally got solid defensively in the third quarter and, in the fourth, we brought it home,” Knicks coach Mike Woodson said. “We made shots. That has been a key to our four-game winning streak.” New York held a 91-85 lead after three quarters and went on to take its biggest lead of the game, 110-89, on the fourth of Hardaways five 3-pointers with 7:37 left. The Knicks never led by less than 12 the rest of the way. Raymond Felton added 13 points for the Knicks. Tony Wroten also scored 23 points for Philadelphia. Young finished with 18 and Anderson had 17 for the 76ers. “Tim Hardaway is a good player. Carmelo is Carmelo,” 76ers coach Brett Brown said. “You look around the gym and you have to pick your poison. They really have a lot of offensive firepower.” NOTES: The Knicks highest points total of the season came in a 125-96 win over Charlotte on Jan. 24. … The last time the Knicks had four 20-point scorers in a game was against the Celtics on April 12, 2012 (Anthony 35, Steve Novak 25, Smith 25, Tyson Chandler 20). … Chandler was not with the Knicks due to “personal reasons.” … The Knicks have purchased a NBA D-League team which will play its home games in White Plains, N.Y., beginning next season. The teams nickname has not yet been decided. … Shannon Brown and Earl Clark were both signed to second 10-day contracts by the Knicks on Monday.

The market is beginning to build up for pending unrestricted free agent Martin Brodeur. According to TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun, Brodeurs agent Pat Brisson has spoken to six teams so far regarding the veteran goaltender. In 39 games with the New Jersey Devils in 2013-2014, Brodeur posted a 19-14-6 record with a 2.51 goals against average and a .901 save percentage with three shutouts. LeBrun adds that the market for Brodeur will heat up more following the draft. The 42-year-old will become an unrestricted free agent on July 1. Brodeur is coming off a two-year contract worth an average annual value of $4.5 million. Over 1,259 career games in New Jersey, the Montreal native has a 688-394-49 record with a 2.24 GAA and a .912 save percentage with 124 shutouts. Brodeur is a three-time Stanley Cup champion (1995, 2000, 2003), four-time Vezina Trophy winner (2003, 2004, 2007, 2008) and won the Calder Memorial Trophy in his rookie season (1994). Hes also been named to play in nine All-Star Games and has won two Olympic gold medals (2002, 2010). Brodeur is the holder of many NHL records including most regular season wins (688), most regular season shutouts (124) and has the most games played by an NHL goaltender (1,259). He was originally selected by New Jersey in the first round (20th overall) of the 1990 NHL Entry Draft. WINNIPEG — Theres no doubt in rookie head coach Mike OSheas mind who the Winnipeg Blue Bombers starting quarterback is. The Bombers unveiled newcomer Drew Willy on Friday, a day after acquiring the young quarterback from the Saskatchewan Roughriders. And OShea immediately named Willy as his starter. “You see a guy who has been tutored by some good coaches,” said OShea. “Hes ready for this.” Winnipeg has two other quarterbacks on its roster — Max Hall and Justin Goltz. And although Willy has made just four career CFL starts, OShea believes his time has come. “Its important to this franchise to have a quarterback and a guy that everybody can believe in.,” OShea said. Willy, 27, played two seasons behind Darian Durant with the Roughriders. He said he prides himself on his passing accuracy and feels comfortable in all situations but also expects to learn by doing. “Being behind a guy like Darian Durant you learn a lot,” he said. “Ive learned from George Cortez, you learn a ton. Obviously Ive had Khari Jones in my ear the last two years as well.” Cortez is Saskatchewans offensive co-ordinator. Jones was the clubs quarterback coach in 2012 and 2013, before becoming the B.C. Lions offensive co-ordinator. “Its something for the fans and for the coaching staff, the management, to be excited about,” OShea said of Willys signing. The Bombers are in dire need of a starter who can win games and fill seats at their new stadium. Thee club posted a 3-15 record last season that tied a modern franchise record for futility.dddddddddddd. The Bombers approached free agents Zach Collaros and Henry Burris. But Collaros signed with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats while Burris joined the expansion Ottawa Redblacks. Winnipeg GM Kyle Walters denied Willy was necessarily third on the Bombers list but also didnt rule out adding another quarterback to the roster. “Were always looking to improve our team, free agency trades . . . well explore all options all the time to improve our team and promote competition at every position,” he said. But Walters had nothing but praise for the young quarterback theyre hanging their hopes on right now. “Pocket awareness, toughness, what drew put on film showed that hes ready to be a starting quarterback in this league,” he said. Willy started two games in 2013, going 1-1. He earned his first career CFL win as a rookie, a come-from behind win at Winnipeg in the Banjo Bowl. He finished 17-of-23 passing for 188 yards and a touchdown while also running for another. Willy played at the University of Buffalo where he was the most prolific passer in school history, setting records for completions (849), attempts (1,322), passing yards (8,748), touchdowns (52), total offence (8,639), and completion percentage (64.2). He also spent some time in the NFL on practice squads in Indianapolis, Baltimore, San Diego, and New York and played in the UFL with Las Vegas in 2010.

MINNEAPOLIS — One day before a huge home series against division-leading Cleveland, and with a pitching staff already under stress from a brutal stretch of 19 games in 18 days, right-hander Scott Baker told the Minnesota Twins he wouldnt be able to make his scheduled start in the series opener. The Twins placed Baker on the disabled list with an elbow strain after a 4-3 victory over the Royals on Sunday, sending them into another scramble in what has been a season full of trying to paper over injuries. “Anytime a pitchers uncertain whether he can go or not you just have to back off here,” manager Ron Gardenhire said. “Theres no risk you can take, if he says hes unsure of it then so are we.” Baker has been one of the Twins top pitchers this season. He missed his final start before the all-star break after feeling a twinge in his elbow, but said then that he figured the extra time off would be more than enough for him to get right. He told the Twins earlier on Sunday that he was good to go and was scheduled to start the opener of a doubleheader on Monday against the Indians. But he had second thoughts as the day went on, and told them during the game that he didnt feel ready to do it. “Thought he could pitch, but he didnt know the ramifications after he pitched how that would come into play and if hed be really sore and end up having to miss starts after it,” Gardenhire said. “When a player tells me something like that were not even going to take a chance.” The Twins victory over the Royals, coupled with Clevelands loss to Baltimore on Sunday, moved Minnesota to five games behind the Indians in the AL Central, a stunningly close margin given the Twins were 16 1/2 games behind on June 1. But rather than have possibly their best starter take the mound for the series opener on what is expected to be another sweltering day at Target Field, the Twins will give the nod to Anthony Swarzak, a fill-in from the bullpen who was originally slated to start the night game. “Theres no way I can put him out on the mound if hes not sure he can start, so thats just the way you have to go here,” Gardenhire said of Baker. “I cant risk that, him going out and hurting himself out on the mound and costing us a month. Its not going to happen.” The Twins selected the contract of left-hander Scott Diamond from triple-A Rochester, and he will start the night cap. Diamond is 4-8 with a 4.70 earned-run average in 17 starts for the Red Wings this year after the Twins selected him in the Rule 5 draft. The Twins also sent infielder Matt Tolbert to Rochester and recalled lefty Chuck James to add one more arm to a pitching staff that is going to be awfully busy through the rest of July. James is 1-1 with a 2.25 earned-run average in 26 appearances in Rochester. [url=http://www.panthersjerseysofficialshop.com/blac… Olsen Jersey[/url] .

The 26-year-old spoiled Abbotsfords annual morning school day game Tuesday as he scored his first two goals of the American Hockey League season to lift the Texas Stars over the Abbotsford Heat 3-1. Entering Tuesdays game, Jeffrey had just three assists in 33 games with the Pittsburgh Penguins, Dallas Stars and Texas Stars. “Its been a difficult year,” he said. “To get these two goals is big. I thought Ive been playing pretty well, helping our team in different ways with the penalty kill and whatever they need, so to contribute this way at a 10:30 a.m. game is big.” “Dustins a great hockey player,” added teammate Brendan Ranford. “Hes been chugging a little bit of late trying to get that puck into the net a Hes been going hard to the net and a lot of bounces werent going in for him, but tonight they were.” Jeffreys second goal proved to be the game winner. Ranford sped down the left side of the ice and dished the puck off to Jeffrey who buried it just under Joey MacDonalds blocker from the top of the left circle at 8:55 of the middle period. “(Jamie Oleksiak) made a great breakout play,” said Jeffrey. “We ended up having a four on three rush. I just took a step back and let the guys charge the net, (Ranford) hit me with the pass and it went right through the screen.” Brett Richie had a goal, while Ranford picked up two assists. Oleksiak and Scott Glennie each added an assist in the victory. “We knew it was going to battle,” said Jeffrey. “We knew that for us to be successful we had to play a strong game and take our chances when they came.” Jack Campbell stopped 23 shots in the win for Texas (34-16-8).dddddddddddd “Campbell hasnt played in forever because of the injury hes been having,” Ranford said. “Hes an exceptional goalie a Hes always square to the shooter and he played very well for us and thats what we need.” Sven Baertschi had the lone goal for the Heat (33-19-6), who are now winless in their last five games. “I thought it was a great game from both sides,” Baertschi said. “It was up and down, and great speed, too. It was a lot of fun to play today. We just couldnt put the puck in.” MacDonald stopped 22 of 25 shots in the loss. Texas went 0-for-1 in on the power play while Abbotsford was 0-for-3. “In general, they were opportunistic,” said Abbotsford head coach Troy Ward. “We had a couple of those chances, and we didnt score a They were just a little bit more opportunistic this morning.” At 14:41 of the first period, MacDonald denied Texas forward Colton Sceviour when he stacked his pads to make a stop. Baertschi opened the scoring less than a minute later with a snap shot from the bottom of the right circle, beating Campbell high glove side. Jeffrey tied the game at 19:21 with his first goal of the season. Glennie found the puck down low and worked it behind the net to Ranford who found Jeffrey in front for the easy tap-in. “Glennie made a pretty good play to draw two of the defenders to him and that left Ranford open,” explained Jeffrey. “He made a good play coming around the net and I just tried to create space in front of the net. He made a great play to find me and it basically went right off my stick.” Brett Richie gave Texas a 3-1 lead at 10:29 of the third period on an unassisted breakaway, splitting two Heat defenders and going backhand high over a sprawling MacDonald.

Got a question on rule clarification, comments on rule enforcements or some memorable NHL stories? Kerry wants to answer your emails at cmonref@tsn.ca. Kerry, I appreciate your earlier comments on Torontos handling of the Vanek goal, and Im sure youve seen the Howie Rose-Kris King interview by now. Im still left with some basic questions about what the actual NHL rules are at this point, and was hoping you could provide some insight. 1. Does the situation room still need clear, incontrovertible evidence to overturn calls made on the ice? Every NHL announcer seems to think so, but Kris King clearly indicates that while that logic held in many cases there was a specific subset of calls (including kicking motion) where the situation room could take the on-ice call as purely advisory and didnt have to find incontrovertible video evidence in order to overturn. Is Kings view backed up by formal statements/rule changes? Do NHL refs uniformly understand that Toronto needs clear evidence to overturn in some cases but not in others? 2. Kings comments seemed contradictory in that he said the rules regarding kicking were defined so that neither refs or the situation room needed to make any judgment as to the players intent (i.e goals scored by kicking should be disallowed even if they could be considered unintentional or inadvertent), but also raised the point that “foot dragging” could be defined as “kicking” in this context. First of all, Rule 38.4 which you quoted in your initial comment does not mention foot dragging, and the “pendulum” motion it prohibits would seem to explicitly exclude the possibility of disallowing goals based on foot dragging. Has there been an internal memo or formal rule change that all NHL refs would be aware of that expands Rule 38.4 to include foot dragging? Secondly, outside of extraordinarily blatant cases, how could anyone disallow a goal on foot dragging grounds without judging the players intentions? Hundreds of goals go off skates where there has been no “pendulum” type kicking motion. How could anyone distinguish good from bad goals without determining whether they thought the player was trying to intentionally redirect a puck, as opposed to simply position themselves near the goal mouth where lucky bounces sometimes occur? We all understand that no set of rules can ever be perfect. The issue here is that you and most fans that saw the Vanek video believed the rule to be applied in that situation was one thing, and King may have implied (but never clearly said), no – the rule to be applied in that situation is different. If the rules are 100 per cent clear to refs and everyone in the league, it would still be useful to communicate changes more clearly so that announcers and journalists arent confusing the fans. Of course, if situation room personnel think they can establish rule interpretations that the on-ice staff isnt in sync with, that would raise a different set of issues. Hoping you can clarify what the real situation is. Hubert Horan Hubert: I truly believe that each person who staffs the Situation Room on a nightly basis in Toronto is a man of integrity and cares deeply about the game. They do not take the huge responsibility handed to them lightly and they do strive to get every call right through video review to the best of their ability. When a play, subject to review, is taken over by the Situation Room their judgment is independent of the referees and any decision rendered through video review is final. The only exception is when video review returns an “inconclusive verdict” at which time the call reverts back to the referee on the ice. In almost every case the referees initial call will then stand. The referees make the call from their vantage point in real time based on the rules as written and with the direction and expected standard of enforcement they are handed from their superiors. The refs recognize that their decision on the ice can be overturned for any reason, whether they agree or even like it! It would appear, at least from the perception of the personnel conducting the video review, that clear and incontrovertible evidence is present for them to overturn a referees call on the ice. That perception and ultimate decision is always subject to debate and scrutiny from the hockey community. While I cant ever recall Kris King agreeing with a penalty I assessed against him during his 14 season NHL career I know him to be a very good, honest and charitable person. As a former player that was most often cheered by adoring fans, Kris and his colleagues in the Situation Room can sometimes find their decisions challenged rather vehemently by various members of the hockey community. No differently than a referee experiences throughout his career, it goes with the territory! This might explain some of Kris apparent defensiveness during the interview with Howie Rose. What Kris didnt explain, but only alluded to, were instructions provided them by the general managers how to ascertain a “distinct kicking motion” beyond the definition provided in rule 38.4 (iv). If such instructions include a skate drag or worse yet, unintended contact with a players skate resulting from physical contact by an opponent, these new criteria should be clearly communicated to the rest of the hockey world. That I believe is the question that Howie Rose and the rest of us would like a clear answer to. I would be most curious to know if Isles GM Garth Snow and Habs GM Marc Bergevin (following Brendan Gallaghers disallowed goal) among others have signed off on the instructions Kris King alluded to. A referee often factors in “player intent” when imposing his judgment on infractions and calls. To suggest otherwise is illogical. At the present time a vast majority of the hockey community, including current and former officials, current and former players, broadcasters and fans cant logically understand decisions to disallow goals like the one that went into the net off the skate of Thomas Vanek. The answer to that question has to come clearly and definitively from Colin Campbell, current Executive Vice President and Director of Hockey Operations who holds the keys to the Kingdom. Finally, the integrity and accuracy of the video review process would be greatly enhanced if the NHL were to employ former referees to provide their specialized expertise and INDEPENDENT judgment in these matters no differently than the other major professional sports leagues have recognized is necessary.

When a few shots broke through that defensive front, Jonathan Quick was there. The Kings won the Stanley Cup two years ago with that basic formula, and they can see it clicking again as they close in on another playoff run. ORLANDO, Fla. — As well as the Wizards have played at times in the past month, Washington coach Randy Wittman said he expected a team that had never been in a tight playoffs race to go through a few growing pains. After two tough losses to start the week, Washington showed the kind of bounce back ability it will take to survive if they do eventually make it there. John Wall survived a poor shooting night to score 12 of his 21 points in the fourth quarter and overtime, Trevor Ariza added 21 points and 11 rebounds overall, and the Wizards hung on to beat the Orlando Magic 105-101 in overtime Friday night. “I wasnt making shots the whole game,” Wall said. “The only shots it felt like I was making were 3s.” The victory ends the Wizards two-game losing streak overall, and a seven-game road losing streak to the Magic. Bradley Beal added 20 points and a game-changing block before being helped off the court with sprained right ankle in overtime. Marcin Gortat finished with 19 points and 14 rebounds. “We realize that its about time for us to start winning,” Gortat said. “Its about time to clinch that spot and get those wins, especially against teams like Orlando.” Beals injury looked a lot more serious when it happened, with him having to be carried off the court by teammates. He is day-to-day. Orlando led by as many as nine in the second half before seeing that lead evaporate down the stretch. Tobias Harris had 21 points and Arron Afflalo finished with 18 to lead the Magic. Orlando has now lost five in a row and 11 of their last 14. “Its painful, it hurts, but you learn from it,” Magic coach Jacque Vaughn said. Wall was fined $15,000 for inappropriate comments toward officials at the conclusion of the Wizards loss against Charlotte on Wednesday, and he had another run-in with the referees Friday. He was whistled for a technical foul in the third quarter for continuing to argue a non-foul call with referee Joey Crawford after Wall had walked back to the sideline huddle. It punctuated a mostly frustrating night for Wall, who finished just 7-of-18 shooting. But he picked it up when he had to. Jameer Nelson hit two free throws for the seventh lead-change of overtime to give the Magic a 97-96 lead.dddddddddddd He got a steal on the Wizards next possession, but had his layup attempt blocked from behind by Beal. It was rebounded by Wall, who found Ariza in the corner for 3 to put Washington back up 99-97. “That was just hustle play, one that we definitely needed. John got a pass deflected, and my first instinct was to just go chase it down,” Beal said. “He had a head start on me I guess I kind of baited him into it, and I was able to jump up and get it before it was (goaltending).” Soon after that play was when Beal went down with his ankle injury. It didnt stifle the Wizards momentum, though, with Wall sinking a jumper with less than 30 seconds to play. The Magic were forced to foul after a miss and the Wizards closed out the victory at the foul line. The Magic led 60-51 in the third quarter before the Wizards ended the period on a 16-6 spurt to take a 67-66 lead into the fourth. Orlando regained its footing, though, getting seven straight points from Victor Oladipo to start the quarter. After several lead changes Harris sank a pair of free throws to put the Magic in front at 85-79 with just 1:55 to play. Wall cut it to three with a 3-pointer, but Harris responded with tip-in on the other end. Wall was fouled on a 3-point attempt on the Wizards next trip down the floor, but got only two of his three free-throw attempts to fall. A missed jumper by Oladipo on the Magics ensuing touch gave it back to Washington and Wall then tied it at 87 with 10.6 remaining. Oladipo got up a 3-pointer from the top of the key as time expired in regulation, but it bounced off the side of the rim. But in the end, the Wizards felt as though Beals big block was the biggest reason they were able to walk out with their first victory in Orlando in over four years. “Hes making a name for himself,” Gortat said. “Hes one of our rising stars.” NOTES: Orlando dropped to 1-5 in overtime games this season. … Orlando is 0-32 when being outrebounded this season. … Hall of Fame baseball player Cal Ripken Jr. sat courtside.

BARCELONA, Spain — Atletico Madrid slumped to a stunning 3-0 loss at Osasuna on Sunday, leaving Real Madrid as the sole leader of the Spanish league for the first time since May 2012. Osasuna beat Atletico at its own game, both in its tough, physical approach and its set piece strategy to take a three-goal lead at the break after one of Atleticos worst first halves in three years under coach Diego Simeone. Alvaro Cejudo opened the scoring from a corner kick in the sixth minute before fellow forwards Emiliano Armenteros and Roberto Torres added goals in the 21st and 42nd. Atleticos loss came one day after Barcelona lost 3-1 at Real Sociedad, with both the former front-runners looking weary after their Champions League trips in midweek. Atletico fullback Filipe Luis, who returned from injury, said that their win at AC Milan on Wednesday had nothing to do with this defeat. “Osasuna played a great game,” said Filipe Luis. “You cant take anything away from them. They beat us in every facet of the match.” Atletico and Barcelona have both dropped 10 points over the last seven rounds, allowing Madrid to turn a five-point deficit into a three-point lead despite playing without Ballon dOr winner Cristiano Ronaldo during a three-game suspension. Madrid hadnt topped the standings since winning the title in 2011-12. Simeone quickly needs to restore both his teams fitness and confidence before it hosts Madrid next weekend after its crosstown rivals travel to German side Schalke 04 on Wednesday. Also on Sunday, Athletic Bilbao strengthened its hold on fourth place by winning 2-0 at Real Betis after the bottom side had two players dismissed, while Valencia and Sevilla won to move to within five points of sixth place and Spains last Europa League spot. Osasuna had already earned draws against Barcelona and Madrid at El Reyno de Navarra Stadium this season, and Javi Gracias side lived up to its reputation as being one of the toughest hosts in the Liga. “I think the fact that those three teams havent won here says a lot,” said Cejudo, who credited his teams fans for their vocal support that he said “pushes” the team forward. Osasuna used a bit of well-executed trickery to strike first when it sent several players to the near post to draw in Atleticos defence before Torres crossed to the far post, where Cejudo had charged in late to drive the ball home. Osasuna was a step faster to almost every ball and Armenteros beat Gabi Fernandez to a loose ball before he unleashed a blistering left-footed strike from outside the area that went in off the post. Diego Costa mustered a shot that sailed wide in the 21st, but Atletico never responded to Osasunas surge and a collective breakdown in defence cost it a third goal. David Villa first failed to fight for a ball in midfield, and then two defenders left Torres unmarked to nod Damia Abellas cross under goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois. “It was a day to remember,” said Gracia. “Its a big step for us as we try to stay up.” Bilbaos first victory in four rounds lifted it four points clear of Real Sociedad and kept it in command of Spains last Champions League berth for next season. In contrast, Betis was left 11 points from safety after a dismal performance that at times bordered on self-destruction amid some questionable refereeing decisions. Bilbaos Iker Muniain converted a penalty in the 34th minute after Damien Perquis tripped Kike Sola in the area. Another reckless tackle by Perquis earned him a second yellow card in the 41st to completely deflate the crowd at Benito Villamarin Stadium. Betis was left with nine men from the 58th when Lorenzo Reyes handled the ball after he had already been booked for arguing. Bilbao substitute Guillermo Fernandez headed in the first ball he touched in the 81st. Valencia needed an injury-time goal from 19-year-old defender Ruben Vezo in his first start to complete a 2-1 comeback win at home over Granada. Sevilla won 1-0 at Rayo Vallecano thanks to fullback Jorge “Coke” Andujars 57th-minute header. Sevilla played the last seven minutes with 10 men after Vicente Iborra received his second booking.

Then he challenged them to respond in a positive way. The club is now doing a little bit of everything right to get back on track. Rookie Roenis Elias struck out six while pitching into the seventh to win consecutive starts for the first time, Justin Smoak drove in three runs and the Mariners beat the Oakland Athletics 8-3 on Tuesday night for their season-best fourth straight victory. “Its been something incredible,” Elias said. “Everybodys together doing their job. I like my team how theyre playing baseball.” Smoak hit an RBI double and Dustin Ackley a run-scoring single in the first to back Elias (3-2), who followed up a 10-strikeout gem at Yankee Stadium his last time out with another impressive start once he settled down. The Mariners jumped on Jesse Chavez (2-1) to take a quick first-inning lead for the second straight game against the As — and Seattle scored all three of its first-inning runs with two outs on the way to its ninth win in 11 games overall. “We know that were not going to win a playoff spot in April,” Michael Saunders said. “However, that being said, losing eight straight was a definite learning experience for us. Its not going to be the last time.” Chavez got a scare and escaped injury in the fourth when he saved himself from a hard-hit liner by Saunders by catching the screamer that was going right for his face. “It was all reflexes, I just put my glove up,” Chavez said. “As soon as I let go of the pitch I saw him make contact. Ive jumped out of the way at balls at my lower body, but Ive never had one like that at my face before.” Making the play knocked him off his feet to end the fourth, and the small Coliseum crowd of 12,106 briefly fell silent. “Luckily no one got hurt. I havent seen the replay but guys said it had a chance to hit him square in the face,” Saunders said. Chavez got a double play to face the minimum in the fifth, but his night ended after allowing Mike Zuninos sixth-inning sacrifice fly following a hit battsman and a walk.dddddddddddd Oakland No. 9 hitter Nick Punto pulled Oakland back in it with a two-run, two-out single in the second. Yoenis Cespedes, back in the starting lineup after nursing a left hamstring injury, hit a leadoff home run in the sixth. The As squandered a scoring chance in the seventh against Dominic Leone, leaving the tying run on third as they again struggled with runners in scoring position. Elias allowed three runs and five hits with three walks in 6 1-3 innings in his seventh career start. Sean Doolittle struck out all four batters he faced in relief of Chavez. But Seattle added on four unearned runs in the top of the ninth against 2013 AL saves leader Jim Johnson, who was booed off the mound when pulled by manager Bob Melvin as fans headed for the exits. Smoak added a two-run single. For Wednesdays doubleheader, Felix Hernandez will pitch Game 1 for Seattle and Erasmo Ramirez the second. As manager Bob Melvin didnt announce his choice for the nightcap, though Dan Straily pitches the opener. Oakland will make right-hander Arnold Leon its 26th player for the second game but is likely to start Drew Pomeranz since he didnt pitch in relief Tuesday. The 25-year-old Leons family was scheduled to fly in from Mexico for his likely major league debut after nine seasons in the minors. The teams are playing two after an April 4 game was called because of a soggy field that had mistakenly gone without its tarp during a heavy rainstorm. NOTES: Saunders, who came in batting .393 with a homer and five RBIs in seven games batting leadoff, went 0 for 4 atop the order. “I dont like messing with success,” McClendon said. “Hes been doing great, weve been doing great. Its kind of hard to change that.”… As reliever Eric OFlaherty, on the disabled list since undergoing Tommy John surgery in the off-season, threw a 30-pitch bullpen session and could begin throwing to hitters soon, and Melvin said an announcement on the pitchers next step would come Wednesday. … Melvin said Triple-A catcher Stephen Vogt, an As playoff star last October currently on Sacramentos disabled list, is close to returning from a strained oblique muscle. 02:32ET 07-05-14 [url=http://www.cheapnfljerseys2015.us.com/]cheap nfl jerseys[/url] ’ ’ ’

Spain are nobodies on a track to a major tournament in third gear, preparing to fail once again at a major tournament. Coach Luis Aragones thought differently. He saw the special players he had and demanded they change their style. It was the first seed that was planted that led to the losers becoming winners. "Aragones changed our style, no longer regularly crossing from those wide areas. It was then when he decided to put his faith in the smaller players, said midfielder Marcos Senna. Spain made it to Euro 2008 and when David Villa scored a 92nd minute winner against the aforementioned Sweden in the group stages, people still didnt believe in their credentials. They always fail and will again was the public sentiment. It is June 22, 2008 and Spains quarterfinal game against Italy has ended 0-0. Time for penalties. Their record from the spot in such scenarios was 2-4 in major tournaments. Losers again. Cesc Fabregas, only 21, changed everything when he slotted home the winner that night in Vienna. Sure, Spain were delighted to win but the overriding emotion was relief. Relief that led to belief. Russia, beaten already in the group stages, were easy opponents in the semifinal and then Germany were defeated 1-0 on a sublime pass from Xavi and a clinical finish from Torres. From losers to winners inside two years. Vicente Del Bosque took over from Aragones after Euro 2008. “Some said it was the worst time to inherit the squad, it was the best,” he would later say. Now they were winners, under the guidance of the brilliant Del Bosque, Spains integral players took over and their outstanding football brains became the difference. At the 2010 World Cup they lost to Switzerland in the first game but as European champions they didnt think of themselves as flops. David Villa and Andres Iniesta got them into the knock-out stages and against Portugal in the last 16, another tight game, one moment of brilliance was the difference. Iniesta danced outside the box, saw a gap between the channels for Villa to run on to but it was a tad too slow. “I had seen the pass by Andres, meant for Villa, so I just backheeled it,” Xavi would say. Villa did the rest. 1-0 Spain. Helped by the brain of the master. It would be 1-0 Spain again defeating Paraguay in the quarterfinals, a game that was far from easy and again won on the field and in the mind. Iker Casillas saved a penalty from Oscar Cardozo but it was not on instinct. Spains intelligence rose again. Casillas recapping the game said; “Pepe (Reina, backup goalie) is obsessed with how the opposition takes penalties, with his help I knew he would go that way.” Reina added: Cardozo, in tight matches, always went to his safe side." Spain would win 1-0, again led by Iniesta and finished by Villa, to finally get beyond the quarterfinals. Through their brilliance on the field and their preparation off it they were knocking down barriers past Spanish teams fell over. “We broke old ways of thinking (that day), that we were inferior to others,” said Del Bosque. The semifinal against Germany was equally as tight. Spain controlled the game, showed Germany what they needed to do to improve, but they still couldnt score. Xavi recalled: “At half-time Puyol said we had taken three or four corners already and said if you put it near the penalty spot, then we could cause problems.” In the 73rd minute at Durban that day, Xavi produced another stunning assist in a major game, and Puyol did exactly what he said. 1-0 Spain. Another victory won by their brilliance on and off the pitch. By now Spain were easily the best team in the world. They just needed a game to prove it. And 116 minutes. Iniesta, fittingly, delivered the knock out punch and Spain were champions of the world. They had conceded fewer goals than any previous winner. They had changed the game annd set the standard.dddddddddddd Since losing to Sweden almost four years earlier they had trailed just five times, none more than 46 minutes, losing just once to Switzerland. Qualifying for Euro 2012 was much the same. They went down a goal to the Czechs but came from behind to win, as they always did. They were huge favourites for Euro 2012 despite star striker Villa being ruled out injured. Del Bosque used it as an opportunity to try something new. The great innovators, who were being copied by everyone – after all, winners are always imitated – were changing their identity again. Fabregas, as a false nine, scored three minutes after Italy opened the scoring in the first game and Spain would never trail again. The false nine gave them great mobility, dropped deep, controlled the space, and stopped the opposition starting transitions. France were destroyed in the quarters, and then came another tight game with Portugal. 0-0, time for penalties. Del Bosque recalls the moment as easy as many of his players wanted to take one. “We made one late switch, replacing Iniestas order with Fabregas, because he wanted to take the last one, remembering four years earlier.” Intelligence once again coming to the fore. Fabregas scored the final penalty and Spain went on to crush Italy in the final, again with Xavi starring with two more brilliant assists in a monumental match. Spain were accused of being boring throughout that tournament but this team was a team to watch with a smile on your face; not with frustration. They had made something very difficult look easy, had produced ball treasurers and space invaders that forced their opponents to re-think their own styles. Major tournaments like the World Cup care little for reputations; they create them. And in a knock-out tournament, where one game, one mistake, one decision can change a game it was Spain that dominated three of them in a row. During that, they not only changed their own reputations but they changed how the game was played. A decade before their success it was thought that players below six feet tall were not strong enough to deal with physical demands of the direct play that was so evident in the modern game. Then came the little masters from Spain. Their place in football history is secure. Yes, they were successful but they were also pioneers led by true footballing greats. Greats like Iker Casillas, a magnificent goalkeeper and captain who united a team divided by Barcelona and Real Madrid and no longer tolerated the antics that held the team back. Greats like Carles Puyol, a man who was never physically gifted to play at the highest level of his profession but who was a winner and who read the game brilliantly. Greats like Xavi Hernandez, simply one of the best players to play the game, and arguably the best player Spain has ever produced. The true conductor of the orchestra, the cleverest of all of midfielders, whose tactical awareness and vision we should talk about for the rest of our lives. Indeed, it isnt just Xavi that we should recount stories about. We are key witnesses; the guardians of history and in years to come will often be able to tell generations to follow just how this Spain team were. That book closed on a raucous night at the Maracana on Tuesday. It was not the death of tika-taka, far from it, instead it was simply the end of a team thats core players struggled to still play together. Many of their core players were off form and they were not a team built to play from behind against talented teams. From that loss in Sweden in 2006 to the start of this World Cup, the World and European champions had trailed in just seven of 54 competitive matches, winning 47 of them and losing just once. Chasing a game against a top side, their pivot of Sergio Busquets and Xabi Alonso struggled for the second straight game. Casillas, past his prime and not sharp could do nothing. Xavi, dropped, watching on the bench was powerless. It was a sad ending to a wonderful chapter in the sport. Sure, Spain will come again. At 30, Iniesta must surely delight many a neutral who desires to see him play in another World Cup, and legitimate world class players like Gerard Pique, Sergio Ramos, Sergio Busquets and David Silva will not be going anywhere. They will be joined by many young stars that they have coming and it will not surprise anyone to see this team win another major tournament in the next decade. However, theyll never be like they were. Our parents had Brazil 1958-1970 and we had Spain 2008-14. We should never forget them.

The Formula One circus has arrived in town and on this Thursday afternoon the teams crew members are setting up their equipment in the pit lane ahead of the three day race weekend.TORONTO — Seemingly unable to play their game for a full 60 — or 65 — minutes, the Toronto Maple Leafs have found themselves turning to the shootout. And this season, it has been working for them. Jonathan Bernier stopped all three Sabres in the shootout to give the Toronto Maple Leafs a 4-3 win over Buffalo on Friday. It was a Toronto-record fourth straight shootout — the Leafs split the four — and improved its shootout record to 6-4 this season. Toronto is tied with Los Angeles with six shootout victories, behind only Washingtons 10. Five of those shootout wins have come at home. Prior to this season, Torontos career record was 29-45 in the shootout. Matt Moulson, Tyler Ennis and Zemgus Girgensons all failed to beat Bernier in the shootout Friday. Ryan Miller stopped Phil Kessel and James van Riemsdyk in the shootout. But Joffrey Lupul beat him on a nifty backhand. Sabres captain Steve Ott had scored with 25 seconds left in regulation with the Leafs trying to kill off a six-on-four after Dion Phaneuf was called for hooking with 51 seconds remaining and Miller out of the Buffalo goal. Ott, who had been flying in the third period, pounced on a Bernier rebound during a scramble and fired it into the net for his fifth of the season. “That hurt,” said Toronto coach Randy Carlyle, whose crossed arms body language on the bench looked like he was suffering from a severe stomach ache. Jake Gardiner, Peter Holland and Kessel had scored second-period goals to put Toronto ahead 3-2 as the Leafs rallied from an ugly start. It appeared that would be enough for only the Leafs second regulation win in their last 19 outings. Toronto (19-16-5) was coming off shootout losses to the Rangers and Red Wings and early on looked like it was headed for disaster against the leagues worst team. The Leafs fell behind 2-0 in the first period but owned Buffalo for almost all of the final 40 minutes. Outshot 15-10 in the first period, the Leafs roared back in the second when they outshot Buffalo 17-5. “We were like two different hockey clubs,” said Carlyle, who added most of the first-period woes were self-inflicted. “The stress level goes up in games like this,” he added. "We dont dwell on the negative (although) well touch base with it. But the positive is we found a way to regroup and get ourselves back on track. But we have to play 60 minutes like we played the last two periods, as closer to it as we possibly can. “Its not easy winning in the NHL. Its proved night in, night out. Theres a lot of shootouts taking place. Were four in a row now.” Despite Torontos shootout success, Carlyle is no fan. “Do we like shootouts? No.” After the morning skate, he had said he would take three-on-three, even two-on-two over the shootout to decide games. Moulson and John Scott also scored for Buffalo (10-24-4) as the NHL re-opened for business after the Christmas break. “I thought we started off real well, but the second period shows you how you can get yourself in trouble when you keep turning the puck over,” said interim Buffalo coach Ted Nolan. “We turned it over a number of times.” “If theres any merit to what we deserved tonight, its what we got,” he added. “Its one of those things where we played as bad as we could play and still get a point. We got what we deserved tonight.” For Scott, a six-foot-eight, 259-pound tough guy, the score ended a 164-game goal drought. But he was in the penalty box for Torontos go-ahead goal in the secoond period by Kessel.dddddddddddd Both teams had chances in overtime with the Leafs dominating the final minutes. Miller made huge saves on both Van Riemsdyk and Phaneuf. Bernier made 32 saves for the Leafs, who outshot Buffalo 42-35 including overtime. Bernier was shaken up early in the third when Ott, diving after a puck, plowed into him but the goalie stayed in. Miller deserved a better fate in the Buffalo goal. The Sabres arrived on a mini-streak, having won three of their last four and gone 4-4-2 in their last 10 games. That included a 2-1 overtime win over Phoenix on Monday in a game where Buffalo was only able to dress 16 because of a flu bug. Toronto was 3-5-2 over the same period. Buffalo has been woeful on the road this season, compiling a 3-13-1 record. No one else has less than six wins away from home. Toronto opened with some jump, outshooting the Sabres 6-2 with the second line of Lupul, Holland and Mason Raymond threatening. But Buffalo then ran off eight straight shots and two goals, with members of the Lupul-Holland-Raymond line on the ice for both of them. The two goals were just 52 seconds apart, drawing loud boos from the crowd of 19,405. Moulson scored the opening goal — something the Sabres have only done eight times this season — after Girgensons, coming out of the corner, fended off Holland like he was his kid brother. Girgensons then sent the puck to the crease where it appeared to hit Moulson and then Phaneuf. Moulson got credit for his 13th of the season at 7:01. Things got uglier when the Leafs turned the puck over and Bernier misplayed the ensuing shoot-in on goal and shot. There were rebounds galore before the puck bounced back to Scott in the slot and the big man fired it into a gaping goal at 7:53. Playing in his 200th career NHL game, Scott had doubled his goals total to two. Even Buffalos official Twitter feed was taken aback. “OH. MY. GOD! John Scott has given Buffalo a 2-0 lead!” read the Sabres tweet. Scotts only other goal was in November 2009. The Leafs looked in disarray and Carlyle couldnt get to the dressing room quick enough as the period ended to more boos. Things changed in the second period with the Sabres back on their heels seemingly trying to protect a rare lead. Toronto had an early power play but Miller hung tough in the face of prolonged pressure. Then the Leafs top line of Kessel, Nazem Kadri and Van Riemsdyk began to turn the screw. Gardiner finally beat Miller from the blue-line at 11:38 with Van Riemsdyk standing in front of goal and the Leafs dominating as if they had a man-advantage. It was Gardiners second of the season. Holland tied it up after Jamie McBain coughed the puck up in the Sabres corner and a falling Raymond managed to send it over to his centre, who beat Miller in-close for his sixth of the season at 16:25. That led to a mocking chant of “Miller, Miller” from the crowd. In truth, the goalie was all that was keeping the Sabres together in the period. A Scott penalty led a third Leaf goal from Kessel, who benefited from a nifty pass from Van Riemsdyk after a howitzer from Phaneuf at the blue-line. Kessels goal at 19:43 was his 18th of the season. The ice continued to tilt in Torontos favour in the third but it was slightly less so and the sandpaper-like Ott made things interesting by throwing himself into the fray. Bernier had to be sharp a couple of times when the Leafs defence sagged late. And Moulson mistimed a puck that went flying through the crease. Toronto defenceman Morgan Rielly hit the post at the other end seconds later. [url=http://www.cheapnfljerseys2015.us.com/]cheap nfl jerseys[/url] ’ ’ ’

The CFLs Board of Governors is holding its ratification vote on Friday afternoon, one day after the Players Association voted in favour of the proposed new collective bargaining agreement. A league source told TSN that the voting will begin just after 2pm et and the results will be released around 4pm et. “I think at this point, after everything that has happened, the commissioner and the league just want to get back to football,” said the source. “Its time to focus on football. Ask me about football.” It was unclear which way the players were leaning prior to Thursdays vote. After the league and CFLPA struck a tentative deal on Saturday, many players publicly voiced their displeasure over the terms. Members of the Saskatchewan Roughriders spoke of their frustrations on Friday, including veterans Darian Durant, Brendon LaBatte and Ricky Foley.

The five-year deal calls for a $5 million salary cap which was below the PAs opening proposal of more than $6 million per year. The Players Association also wanted the agreement to be renegotiable after the third year if league revenues increased by more than $18 million, but settled for the leagues figure of $27 million.

Warren scoring near his usual pace, North Carolina State was poised to pull off a second straight significant upset at the ACC tournament. Then the Wolfpack ran out of steam. No. 7 Duke beat N.C. State 75-67 on Saturday in the ACC semifinals, denying the Wolfpack a third win in three days. “They really believed we could win and they played with great courage,” coach Mark Gottfried said. “I thought maybe we got tired in the second half. We didnt seem as fresh as we have been.” Warren, the ACC player of the year, scored 21 points for N.C. State to 20 for Dukes Jabari Parker in a matchup of the ACCs top two scorers. Warren led the league with an average of 24.9 points while Parker was second at 19.2 points per game. On Saturday, Warren scored 21 points but was just 4 of 13 after halftime while facing a barrage of double teams. “Rodney (Hood) did a good job on him just to keep him to 21,” coach Mike Krzyzewski said. “You can overcoach, and we overcoached our preparation. He was doing what we asked him to do, and it wasnt working, and he said, Coach, let me just play him my normal way. That was better.” The seventh-seeded Wolfpack (21-13) shot just 36 per cent in the second half — after hitting 67 per cent in the opening half — and were denied their first title game berth since 2007. “N.C. State was fighting for their lives,” Dukes Rasheed Sulaimon said. Lennard Freeman had 13 points and Anthony “Cat” Barber finished with 12 for N.C. State, which for much of the day looked capable of pulling off a second straight resume-enhancing upset after knocking off No. 11 Syracuse in the quarterfinals. “I hope they take a look at our team and see how much better we are than we were at the beginning,” Gottfried said. “If you win at Pitt, beat Syracuse and beat Duke, hell, youre about a Final Four team then. I think we showed that we certainly belong in the field of 68.” Sulaimon added 16 points for the third-seeded Blue Devils (26-7) while Rodney Hood had 14 points and keyed the defensive effort against Warren. Duke earned its 31stt championship game appearance and first since 2011.dddddddddddd The Blue Devils will play No. 6 Virginia on Sunday. Dukes 69-65 win in January stood as the Cavaliers lone conference loss until Maryland beat them last week. Duke won on Saturday with a 20-7 run in the second half that was fueled by three N.C. State turnovers and a spate of missed shots. “Im not going to force it to get past two people,” said Barber, who said he was double-teamed as well. “They just did a great job of defending. … They just kept their composure throughout the game.” Parker scored six points during the burst that pushed the Blue Devils lead into double figures for the first time. A botched lob to N.C. State big man Jordan Vandenberg led to an open court the other way for Parker, and his authoritative dunk over a sidestepping Barber made it 49-45 with 15 minutes left. Quinn Cook ended the run with a 3 that made it 61-49 with about 9 1/2 minutes remaining. “We got a lot of easy baskets from our defence, and once we got into a rhythm, our shots started falling down and we got rolling,” Sulaimon said. N.C. State never could string together a game-threatening run after that, and the Wolfpacks best chance down the stretch came when they closed to 67-59 on Freemans jumper with about 3 minutes left. Hood missed the front end of a one-and-one but the rebound went to Parker — who finished with a momentum-shifting dunk to put Duke back up by 10. Cook had 14 points for the Blue Devils, who gave N.C. State its most lopsided loss of the season in the teams only previous meeting — a 95-60 thumping at Cameron Indoor Stadium in which Duke seemed content to let Warren score and clamp down on everyone else. At least early on Saturday, though, the Blue Devils once again couldnt stop anyone. N.C. State hit 13 of 15 shots over an 11-minute stretch and scored on 15 of 16 possessions, with the only empty trip in that span coming when Warren missed the front end of a one-and-one. “First half, neither team could stop one another,” Krzyzewski said. “In the second half, we just played better defence.” [url=http://www.cheapnfljerseys2015.us.com/]cheap nfl jerseys[/url] ’ ’ ’

INDIANAPOLIS — Indiana already had the leagues No. 1 defence. The Lakers discovered Tuesday that the Pacers offence is becoming just as potent. Paul George had 20 points, seven rebounds and six assists, newcomer Evan Turner and five other Pacers reached double figures, and the top team in the East blew out the worst team in the West, 118-98. “Were probably one of the deepest teams in the NBA, where one through 15 can actually really play,” Pacers guard George Hill said after scoring 14 points. “It shows that if we continue to move the ball and share the ball like that, it can be anybodys night.” This is precisely what Indiana (43-13) envisioned when it pulled the trigger on the biggest deal before last Thursdays deadline. Team president Larry Bird spent most of the off-season reconstructing a bench that didnt quite get the job done against Miami in last years Eastern Conference finals. So hes continued tweaking it throughout the season, signing former All-Star centre Andrew Bynum 3 1/2 weeks ago and then sending former All-Star Danny Granger to Philadelphia for Turner and Lavoy Allen. The Pacers looked like a more explosive team in the second half of Turners first game. He finished with 13 points and six rebounds and was 6 of 12 from the field, leading the Pacers bench to a season-best 50 points. “Hes on this team and Im on the same page as him,” George said. “Hes a player who can make shots and make things happen. Hes a huge talent for us and its great to have him here.” The addition of Turner certainly helped the Pacers maintain their grip on the leagues best record and best home record (27-3). Indiana is now two full games ahead of Miami in the chase for home-court advantage in the East. Indiana appears to have all the pieces in place, too, though Tuesday nights big game came against a reeling team that has lost six of its last seven while playing without Kobe Bryant. But the Pacers didnt change the blueprint. In addition to the big games from George, Hill and Turner, Indiana also got 13 points from Lance Stephenson; 11 points and 12 rebounds from David West; 10 points, six rebounds and four blocks from Roy Hibbert and 11 more points from C.J. Watson, who missed only one shot all night. Ian Mahinmi and Luis Scola each scored nine points, too, and Stephenson was the only Indiana player to log more than 28 minutes. There was no defensive letdown, either. Los Angeles (19-38) shot 43.3 per cent from the field, 34.8 per cent on 3-pointers and got demolished on the glass, 62-42, as Indiana grabbed a season-high 21 offensive rebounds. Newly acquired guard Kent Bazemore finished with 23 points, the third straight game hes had a career high since he was traded to the Lakers from Golden State. Wesley Johnson added 15 points, while Pau Gasol and Jodie Meeks each had 13. But it was an abysmal night for the Lakers, who managed only 16 points in the decisive third quarter and half of their 44 second-half points during the final seven minutes, after they trailed by 33. “Well go back and watch the film and get a better idea of how badly we played,” coach Mike DAntoni said. For 2 1/2 quarters, things didnt look so bleak for the Lakers. They trailed just 57-54 at halftime and closed to 59-58 when Gasol knocked down a 15-foot jumper early in the third quarter. The Pacers didnt let it get any closer. West answered with a tip-in and Hill followed with five straight points to make it 66-59. Then George accounted for 10 quick points in a 14-5 run that pushed Indianas lead to 80-66. After a layup from Chris Kaman, the Pacers closed the quarter on an 11-2 run that included Watsons 3 with two seconds left to make it 91-70 after three. Indianas 12-6 run to start the fourth quarter gave them a 103-76 lead and the Lakers couldnt get closer than 19 the rest of the way. “Its good to have another guy out there that can put the ball on the floor, get in the paint and make plays,” George said of Turner. “I think we are kind of perfect for his game.” Notes: Indiana has the NBAs top two single-game rebounding totals this season, both against the Lakers. They outrebounded Los Angeles 63-43 on Jan. 28. … Los Angeles had won its previous three games in Indy. … Turner received polite applause when he entered the game for the first time with about 4 1/2 minutes left in the first quarter.
