ST. Cheap Colts Jerseys . LOUIS -- Dave Ryan and Matthew Sughrue each won two matches Wednesday at Old Warson to reach the U.S. Senior Amateur final.The 62-year-old Ryan, from Taylorsville, Illinois, beat Michael Dunsmore of Poughkeepsie, New York, 5 and 3 in the quarterfinals and topped Tim Jackson of Germantown, Tennessee, 1 up in the semifinals.I dont know what to say. Im at a loss for words, Ryan said. To be honest with you, Im a little shocked. I was fortunate to beat him [Jackson] and Paul Simson [in the round of 16]. Those are two tough guys to take down.The 57-year-old Sughrue, from Arlington, Virginia, edged Doug Hanzel of Savannah, Georgia, 1 up in the quarterfinals and rallied to beat Kevin Cahill of Waukesha, Wisconsin, in 19 holes in the semifinals.Against Jackson, Ryan won the 14th hole to take a 2-up lead, lost the 15th with a bogey and matched Jackson with a par-birdie-par finish -- holing a 9-footer on 18 -- to close out the match.It was uphill and I just had to hit it, Ryan said. Fortunately, it went in. Thats a tough hole.On Tuesday in the round of 16 against two-time champion Simson, Ryan had the third known hole-in-one on a par 4 in USGA history.Against Cahill, Sughrue lost the 15th and 16th holes to fall 1 down, won the 18th with a par and won the match on the 19th with another par. Sughrue also rallied against Hanzel, winning 15 and 16 to take the lead and matching Hanzel with pars on the last two holes.The Hanzel match was a real grinder. It was a tough match against a great player, Sughrue said. We didnt play as well in this one, but on the back nine, we both kind of steadied -- and coming down the stretch, its not stroke play, its a matter of who wins the match.Sughrue left the insurance business after 25 years in 2008 to go to graduate school at Virginia Tech, and he is now a psychotherapist.

Cyber Monday Colts Jerseys . -- Nathan Pancel scored twice as the Sudbury Wolves defeated the North Bay Battalion 4-2 on Saturday in Ontario Hockey League action. http://www.cheapcoltsjerseys.net/braden-smith-womens-jersey/ . The formidable trio of Canadian receivers -- individually known as Chris Getzlaf, Rob Bagg and Andy Fantuz -- will share the field at Mosaic Stadium one more time on Sunday. LOUDON, N.H. -- NASCAR didnt get the day it needed Sunday at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. It needed a free-for-all wrestling match on a 1-mile flat race track on a hot summer day when its most popular driver was sidelined by a possible concussion.Thanks, Matt Kenseth, for spoiling all that hope. Kenseth earned his 38th career win in a New Hampshire 301 dominated by the same drivers who have dominated all season and where battles for the lead primarily got dicey when the leaders found themselves in the rare position of being stuck in traffic or on a restart.The race had potential to invigorate. Restarts would be crazy thanks to the typical one-groove track. Drivers who already have made the Chase would have nothing to lose beating and banging for a win. Teams had not used the regular 2016 aerodynamic package since early June at Pocono, meaning that some teams might have landed on something in the last month that could throw the establishment into a tailspin.Oh, there could have been mayhem.Sigh. Even the restarts with potential for dramatics, resulted in mostly fender benders that then resulted in tire rubs instead of all-out melees battling for position.A ho-hum race won by Kenseth? Where have NASCAR fans seen that before? At least it wasnt like his last win at New Hampshire by fuel mileage.Kenseth no doubt earned it in front of a disappointing half-filled grandstands in a race with no sponsor. And in a race with no Dale Earnhardt Jr., out with concussion-type symptoms.The lack of drama was the result of one thing: Talent rises to the top and currently its primarily Toyota teams (Joe Gibbs Racing and Furniture Row Racing) sitting there with Stewart-Haas?Racing and Team Penske playing the role of annoying gnats.I felt like we had probably the best car all day, Kenseth said. It just took forever to get there.Yes it did, and Kenseth didnt do anything dramatic to get there. Thats what a driver does when having the best car -- dont tear the thing up but make the pass when the opportunity presents itself. Theres no need to look at the rearview mirror when the car is better than the rest.I think no matter what package it is, ... its kind of the same group youve got to beat, Kenseth said. I dont think anybody really is leaps and bounds out there running away from it. The rules are too tight and everybody is pretty close to the same speed.Kenseth, the 2003 Sprint Cup champion, is one of the series best drivers and he felt as if he had one of the best cars. That was pretty obvious as he led the final 31 laps.The driver who has led the most laps this year, Martin Truex Jr., led 123 laps and the driver who entered third in laps led this year, Kyle Busch, paced the field for 133 circuits early in thee race. Tyquan Lewis Womens Jersey. Truex had another one of those show-me-how-to-lose-it days, this time with a broken shifter as the culprit. The other dominant driver this season, Kevin Harvick, would have led laps if he didnt have two slow pit stops.We under-execute as a team on a weekly basis and got to do a better job, Harvick said. The ... cars are always fast, but we always do something wrong. Its really going to have to come from the top [to manage].I mean they are going to have to clamp down and there is no way we can win a championship like this unless they straighten some of this stuff out.That left the race for Kenseth to lose, and while he has had some moments similar to Truex this year, he appeared flawless on the four restarts in the final 43 laps, leaving any challengers racing for second.That race actually was a good one, with Tony Stewart rallying late. The outside lane was the obvious spot where drivers wanted to be on restarts, and restarting sixth with 11 laps left put him in position to gain positions. But by the time he passed Joey Logano for second with a couple laps remaining, he had no hope of catching Kenseth, who won by nearly?-- yawn?--?two seconds.There were a couple times that we were racing around guys and we would catch them and then just got too tight when we got right up to them, Stewart said. There were times that I thought I pulled some veteran moves ... and watched them race each other, and then when you see them start missing the bottom or getting loose on the exit, then I went up there and tried to push them and make them make mistakes, and it was working.Logano finished third, followed by Harvick and then the first surprise -- Greg Biffle, in fifth, for his first top-5 of the season.I cant say I passed a car if it wasnt in the first 10 laps after a restart --- not because it was hard to pass, just because my car wasnt good, Logano said. We were able to just be aggressive on restarts and get a couple, and then I was playing defense the rest of the day.Its not fun playing defense to be honest with you. Its not fun to do that. But days like today you have to get the best finish you possibly can.Kenseth has three wins in the past six races at New Hampshire, a place where he had no wins in his first 27 career Cup starts. In other words, his days at this track probably were like many of the fans who watched the first 219 laps?Sunday?with two cautions -- frustrating and wanting for more.They didnt even get a crazy finish. And for that, blame Kenseth and his team.These guys [on the team] did a great job, Kenseth said. I had an easy job today.?

                                      Stewards have deliberated for more than 10 minutes before dismissing a protest at Eagle Farm, saying it was a close call. Keke Coutee Womens Jersey .Robbie Fradd, who rode $2.50 favourite Mark My Word to second in the QTIS Three-Year-Old Maiden Plate (1300m).at Eagle Farm on Wednesday fired in a protest against Jim Byrne on the winner Tempete Rogue ($6).The margin between the pair was a long head.Panel chairman Martn Knibbs said the decision to dismiss the protest was by the barest of margins.Fradd told the inquiry Mark My Word had moved up to the leaders in the final 200m and his mount came together with Tempete Rouge, who was leading.Tempete Rouge has then moved out into me and it cost me the win, Fradd said.However, Byrne argued that Mark My Word made the first contact when he had clipped his horses hindquarters which forced his horse to run out.When a horse clips another horses hindquarter there is only one way to go and that is to the left Byrne said.Knibbs said stewards obviously felt it was close.You can see from the length of time we have deliberated that it was very close, he said.But in the end after considering all the evidence and taking into account the margin we dismiss the protest.Apprentice Cassie Schmidt continued her run with trainer Barry Baldwin with a double on Motion Granted ($6) and Confronting ($5) at the meeting.Schmidt has had 11 rides for Baldwin this season and ridden six winners.Cassie is very experienced apprentice and she still has a claim which is an advantage, Baldwin said.Baldwins disappointment at missing a barrier trial with Motion Granted was replaced with a smile when the gelding won the Class 2 (1000m).I was going to run him in a trial but it was washed out. I decided to run him in todays race instead. As it turned out this was a $13,000 first prize barrier trial, Baldwin said.Mackay trainer Olivia Cairns decision to bring Khadija as a travelling mate for her top sprinter Sporting Page also proved a winner.Khadija ($11) won the Maiden Plate (2200m) by three lengths.Sporting Page needs a travelling companion for the trip from Mackay and Khadija has shown she can stay in benchmark races in Rockhampton, Cairns said.

After Martin Skrtel put the Reds in front from close range at Stamford Bridge after only four minutes, Hazard hit back in the 17th with a superb strike. Etoo gave Jose Mourinhos team a decisive lead from Oscars back pass in the 34th. NEW YORK -- Mets manager Terry Collins said he had no problem with outfielder Yoenis Cespedes playing golf on Wednesday despite being out of the starting lineup the previous three days with a balky right quadriceps.Cespedes remains unable to play the field, but starts as the designated hitter on Wednesday night as the Mets open a stretch of five straight games in American League ballparks with a Subway Series matchup against the New York Yankees in the Bronx.Former major leaguer Kevin Millar tweeted a photo with Cespedes after a round of golf.Was he running on the course or was he walking? Did he ride a cart or was he jogging? Collins asked. I dont have any problem with it.A Mets official said Cespedes was unavailable to comment pregame Wednesday.Cespedes raised eyebrows during the National League Championship Series when he golfed in suburban Chicago on the morning of Game 4. Cespedes then departed that game with a shoulder injury. Cespedes subsequently explained that golfing relaxes him and he regularly plays during the season.Cespedes did pinch hit on Tuesday against the Yankees at Citi Field and was credited with an infield single. After the game he said the quadriceps was uncomfortable.I felt a little discomfort running down the line, but once I got into the dugout it went away, Cespedes said through an interpreter. The problem is that once I take a couple of days off, I feel better. But once I go full speed is whenn the pain returns. Black Friday Texans Jerseys. The Mets plan to use Cespedes as the designated hitter for the next five games. After the weekend, when the Mets return to National League ballparks, a decision will be made about whether Cespedes will require a stint on the disabled list, general manager Sandy Alderson said.Asked if he was troubled by Cespedes round of golf, Alderson tried to add some levity. Ill let you know after the game tonight, he said.In other injury news, first baseman Lucas Duda?--?who landed on the DL on May 23 with a stress fracture in his lower back -- had a setback last week when discomfort flared up.Los Angeles-based specialist Robert Watkins recommended 30 days of rest, which likely ends Dudas season, according to Alderson. Watkins does not believe surgery ultimately will be necessary, Alderson added.Duda could be a non-tender candidate in December. He is making $6.725 million this season and is eligible for arbitration one final time this winter. Alderson suggested it is possible one of the Mets outfielders -- presumably Michael Conforto or Jay Bruce -- might be asked to get acclimated to first base during the offseason.Right-hander Zack Wheeler will begin a rehab assignment on Saturday with Class A St. Lucie. Wheeler is returning from Tommy John surgery, performed in March 2015.

Cricket South Africa (CSA) and Cricket Australia (CA) have strongly objected to the WICBs decision to charge a release fee in order to provide a No-Objection Certificate (NOC) to Caribbean players participating in overseas Twenty20 tournaments. Womens Dolphins Jerseys . The WICB had decided to impose a levy of 20% of a players contract fee, which it says should be paid by the host board in order for West Indies players to participate in their T20 tournaments.The news came to light earlier this week when it was leaked that WICB informed Kieron Pollard, on November 3, that he would not be given the NOC to travel to South Africa for their domestic T20 tournament, where he plays for the Cape Cobras.In a subsequent media release on Tuesday, the WICB issued an explanation of its decision, which it said was a policy move made by its board of directors. But later in the day, WICB chief executive Michael Muirhead said Pollard had been granted the NOC without any condition. Muirhead added that the WICB would carry on the dialogue with the other boards.While we do not wish to act in restraint of trade, we must seek a balance to ensure that there is fair and adequate compensation for the investment made in the players, the WICB release said. What WICB seeks is some compensation to recognise the investment made into players, an investment from which another Full Member is benefitting.However, other boards disagreed. Both CSA and CA said they did not support the proposal and pointed out that it was recently tabled for the first time by the WICB, but not agreed upon, at the Cape Town round of ICC meetings held in October.It was a WICB proposal, but not supported by any other member at the time, CSA chief executive Haroon Lorgat said. It was the first time the topic was raised and it was concluded by all that we should reflect on it as a part of all of the other reforms or regulations that we are presently working on to support the primacy of international cricket.Lorgat said the WICB decision to go solo without proper consideration and agreement with other stakeholders was inappropriate. I was quite surprised by the approach of the WICB because we had discussed this concept in a very preliminary way at the last chief executives committee (CEC) meeting in Cape Town. As an isolated measure, we cannot support it at this stage.Muirhead told ESPNcricinfo that WICB president Dave Cameron had said the concept was first discussed by the ICC board of directors at a meeting earlier this year. I understand from my President that it was approved at the ICC board level, which is above the CEC. The Board agreed to the concept that [the] fee would be charged. I have not seen the minutes itself, but this is what he told me. Muirhead said the ICC might have discussed the issue further on its own and perhaps pointed out some practical issues, which led to the discussion once again by the CEC in Cape Town in October.It came up for discussion at the CEC [meeting] and then they took that back to the Board. But there was an initial approval at the board level earlier.According to Lorgat, the WICB decision was surprising because the ICC members had agreed that the concept of a release fee needed more discussion to understand the full implications.He confirmed that CSA had responded to the WICB saying it would not support the payment of release fees at this stage. We have written back saying we are not in a position to agree to pay release fees when neither our board nor the ICC members have properly considered the concept.That opinion was supported by CA, too. We are aware of the issues pertaining to West Indies Cricket Board releasing players for other domestic leagues and are in discussion with them on this, a CA spokesperson said. Cricket Australia does not support the proposal suggesting that release fees be paid by home member boards to WICB in order for West Indies players to play in their domestic leagues. This matter was briefly discussed and rejected by member board CEOs at the recent ICC Chief Executives meeting in Cape Town.Administrators - in the ICC and of the Full Members - have been concerned about the rising popularity of domestic T20 tournaments, which have eaten into the viewership of the other formats of the game. What has also bothered many boards is players opting to retire from international cricket to become free agents, in order to lengthen their T20 shelf life.As such, Lorgat said a release fee was appropriate in the case of the IPL, which is played over nearly two months every year when all international cricket effectively comes to a standstill, as players from most countries participate in the lucrative tournament in India. In addition, the BCCI does not release their players to the other leagues. For these reasons the BCCI pays member boards a certain fee by way of compensation.It should clearly apply to the BCCI because all the other countries have effectively created a window for the IPL and thus lost the opportunity to commercialise their international rights during that period, Lorgat said. That is why the BCCI compensates the other member boards. It is clearly very different.But Lorgat added that the same formula could not be mechanically applied to other member boards.Without having worked on the details and the implications, I have a feeling that the smaller boards will be disadvantaged by the payment of release fees, or it would simply end up all square between the various boards with similar amounts being paid to each other.Additional reporting by Daniel Brettig Dolphins Jerseys Online . Andreas Johnson had a goal and two assists while Jacob de la Rose also scored for Sweden (2-0-0). Esa Lindell and Rasmus Ristolainen replied for Finland (1-1-0) Lindell opened the scoring for Finland just 41 seconds into the game, but the hosts quickly regained their composure and tied the score less than four minutes later on Wennbergs first of the game.

Mohammad Azharuddin is the only other batsman to get at least half his 9000 runs while captaining in ODIs.

                                      A look at whats happening all around the majors Wednesday:---TRIPLE-AS DAYBig leaguers are off the next two days, but if you need baseball on TV, the Triple-A All-Star Game is being broadcast live at 7 p. Wholesale Falcons Jerseys .m. EDT on MLB Network. Many of the participants might not be long for the minors, including Twins right-hander Jose Berrios, who has already made four starts in the majors this season. A few others who could see the majors in the second half: Yankees catcher Gary Sanchez, Padres outfielder Hunter Renfroe and Diamondbacks right-hander Braden Shipley.SIGNING DAYThe deadline to sign 2016 amateur draft picks is Friday, and three first-rounders -- all left-handed pitchers -- have yet to sign: Braxton Garrett with the Marlins, Jason Groome with the Red Sox and Anthony Kay with the Mets. Garrett was the seventh overall pick and has a commitment to Vanderbilt for if he doesnt sign. Groome was also a Vanderbilt commit but reportedly switched to a junior college days before the draft, meaning he could re-enter the 2017 draft and try to make more money -- a move that increased his negotiating leverage. Kay, a junior at Connecticut, was the 31st overall pick.MANFREDS DANDELIONSBaseball Commissioner Rob Manfreds checklist for the second half includes a familiar item: quicken MLBs pace of play. Manfred admitted Tuesday the sport slipped right at the beginning this year when it comes to pace of play. The average time of a game was 3 hours, 13 seconds prior to the All-Star Game, up from 2:53:04 in 2015. Pace of play for me is like dandelions in your front lawn, Manfred said. I just cant get rid of it.OLYMPIC BASEBALL?Manfred also said that MLB is going to meet with the World Baseball Softball Confederation to discuss possibly allowing major leaguers to compete in the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo, although he added that from a calendar prospective, the dates of the Tokyo Games are not ideal. The International Olympic Committee executive board voted last month to support a six-nation tournament in baseball and softball for 2020, with a full IOC vote scheduled for August. Baseball was dropped prior to the 2012 London Games and wont be played next month at Rio. We like the idea of baseball being in the Olympics, Manfred said.

                                      MINNEAPOLIS -- Fifteen years ago, the Minnesota Vikings hosted a Monday night game and beat the New York Giants with three touchdown catches by Randy Moss. Matt Pryor Jersey .Same matchup, same site, but this time Moss will be on the sideline in a suit and tie.Theres no mystery, either, about where his loyalty still lies.I know its going to be fun to be back and see these boys remain undefeated, said Moss, now an ESPN analyst at age 39 who is four years removed from his final season in the NFL and 12 years out from his last full season with Minnesota.The Vikings (3-0) will face the Giants (2-1) for the sixth time in their series on a Monday night. This will also be the second prime-time kickoff at U.S. Bank Stadium, two games into the sparkling $1.1 billion buildings history.Two weeks ago, the Vikings beat rival Green Bay 17-14 to break in their glass-fronted, ship-shaped new venue.I was a little excited for it and felt the energy from my own house, said Moss, who shared his enthusiasm on Instagram that day before the game . So I know its going to be loud.Moss played for five teams in all. He made his mark with the Vikings after they drafted him in the first round in 1998 following his slide down the board due to character concerns. Moss created his share of conflicts and controversies in Minnesota, and his second stint in 2010 ended after four games in spectacularly implosive fashion. But the lanky, loquacious wide receiver never lost his love for the franchise. Naturally, after Moss landed his new job with the ESPN crew, he quickly circled the game at Minnesota on his calendar.Im more of an old-school guy, closing in on 40 years old, Moss said on a recent conference call. Im excited to see the fans and the new stadium. ... But all my memories lie with the old Metrodome.The Giants will bring with them a talented, talkative pass catcher who perhaps reminds Moss a little bit of himself .Odell Beckham Jr. has 19 catches for 280 yards through three games for the Giants. But he hasnt scored a touchdown yet and was agitated throughout his much-hyped matchup against cornerback Josh Norman in a loss to Washington last week. Beckham had to be confronted on at least two occasions by new coach Ben McAdoo about keeping his poise.Thats passion, man. Theres other ways I guess that people show it, but man, he wants to make plays. He wants to make plays, Moss said, adding: That man really wants to get up in that end zone. When he gets up in that end zone, thats when hes allowed to strut and dance and do all that other stuff. So I understood his frustration, but at the same time, be able to control it and hold it.The Giants are depleted at running back, with Rashad Jennings (thumb) listed as questionable and Shane Vereen (triceps) out for the season. But theyve got enough downfield threats for quarterback Eli Manning with Beckham, rookie Sterling Shepard and a resurgent Victor Cruz that this will be an intriguing matchup with coach Mike Zimmers defense.Its going to be a test, said Manning, whos 2-5 in seven career starts against the Vikings, with five of his 14 interceptions returned for touchdowns. Our receivers have to get open at times. We have to run the ball well and get in good down and distance. Its a combination of a lot of things. They have a good third-down blitz package. We have to be prepared for a lot of things.The Vikings harassed the last two NFL MVP award winners in the last two weeks, totaling 13 sacks against Green Bays Aaron Rodgers and Carolinas Cam Newton, but theyre not any more comfortable facing Manning. Their 49-17 victory at home last season was aided by the absence of Beckham and the elimination of the Giants from the playoff chase earlier that day.I dont rate guys or rank guys or anything like that, but I mean the guy has won two Super Bowls, Zimmer said. He knows where to go with the ball. He gets it out quick. Hes got good footwork. Hes always a big challenge to play.---Online:AP NFL website: http://www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL coverage on Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Eagles Jerseys From China .

He has said a month ago that he hoped to play the Safeway Open at Silverado Resort, but had until Friday afternoon to officially commit.Woods last played on Aug. 23, 2015, at the Wyndham Championship in a last-minute bid to qualify for the FedEx Cup playoffs. A month later, he announced a second surgery on his back, and then a third one a month after that.Even through other operations on his knee, the 40-year-old Woods has never spent this long away from competition. And never has the No. 767 player in the world attracted so much attention.Silverado is the perfect course for him because it is so straightforward, tournament host Johnny Miller said last month when Woods indicated he hoped to play. I think hell love being back in California. If he can get a good first round ... just get some confidence and springboard from there.Woods plans to play the Turkish Airlines Open next month and then his Hero World Challenge the first week in December, giving him three tournaments in roughly three months to end the year.The Safeway Open, in its first year as title sponsor, has a little extra star power next week. Phil Mickelson already has announced he will play, and PGA Tour officials are considering putting them in the same group forr the opening round. Avonte Maddox Jersey. Im sort of glad Im not there that week. ... Its going to be a bit of a circus, Rory McIlroy said last month. But its good to see him back and healthy, and it will be exciting to see him back on the course again.Wood sounded defeated last December in the Bahamas because he had no timetable for a return and no idea how long it would take his back to heal. He said at one point, For my 20 years out here, I think Ive achieved a lot, and if thats all it entails, then Ive had a pretty good run. But Im hoping thats not it.He played five holes with Mark OMeara when Woods opened his golf course outside Houston. He also had one awkward moment at Congressional during a promotion for the Quicken Loans National. He was asked to hit a shot over the water to the par-3 10th hole, and put all three of them in the water.Woods said last month his rehabilitation was to the point where he was comfortable making scheduling plans.He was at the Ryder Cup as an assistant captain, mostly walking as he spent time with Dustin Johnson, Matt Kuchar, Jordan Spieth and Patrick Reed. Woods this week was named an assistant to Presidents Cup Captain Steve Stricker, though Stricker said he would like to see Woods playing on the team.Woods hasnt won since the 2013 Bridgestone Invitational, the 79th title of his PGA Tour career. That left him three short of the record held by Sam Snead.

Vincent Barnes, a tearaway quick, played for Western Province in the Howa Bowl competition during the apartheid era, and briefly in the Currie Cup after the end of isolation. Sony Michel Womens Jersey . He has been coaching fast bowlers for Cricket South Africa for the last 14 years.Are you surprised by how well the South African quicks bowled in Australia? When conditions suit our fast bowlers, as they do in Australia, they are lethal. South African bowlers have always been fairly good overseas. We adapt to conditions well and that has been a massive strength of the South African side for years. Whether we are playing in Dubai, New Zealand, at Lords, or at home at the Wanderers, we have fast bowlers who can take wickets.Each of the fast bowlers brings different variants to the attack. Vernon Philander is always accurate and if there is anything in the wicket, he will exploit it. He also gets a bit of swing. Kyle Abbott is the same, only he is a bit quicker. He is highly skilled and bowls a strong ball. And then you have the pace of Kagiso Rabada. Among them, they give nothing away. They keep coming and coming, and bowl to a fantastic plan.What does a pace-bowling attack need to be successful all over the world? It needs to be multi-dimensional. The unit needs to have different skills. If you add Dale Steyn and Morne Morkel to the group above, you have two more fast bowlers with different styles and skills. It doesnt always work. On the tour of India last year, we needed more pace on the slower wickets.Is there anything missing from this South African attack? We could do with a left-arm quick. Wayne Parnell is part of the squad, but he is injured at the moment. There are also some younger bowlers around with pace.How do you help develop young fast bowlers so they reach their potential? The first thing you have to think about is injury prevention. Someone using that amount and type of energy at the crease is always going to be prone to injury, particularly in their lower back. As a coach you work with them to get their action fluent. Analyse the action, see if theres any chance of an injury. Do they have a mixed action? Are they putting stress on a particular part of their body? If there is a risk, you work with them to get them more upright when they deliver, get their forces moving in the right direction, down the wicket before, during and after they release the ball.Should young fast bowlers take it easy then, bowl within themselves? A lot of coaches will talk about line and length. For me, a fast bowler actually has to bowl fast. Control of line and length is easy to coach. Its not easy to teach someone to bowl 5kph faster.Who was the fastest young fast bowler youve ever worked with? Dale Steyn. He came down to play against the South African Academy as a young tearaway. He impressed me so much that I asked him to come back and play some more matches, against us and for us. When you see a really raw fast bowler like Steyn, Brett Lee or Shoahib Akhtar, that really excites me. Its such a great skill to be able to bowl really fast.How important is mental resilience, particularly when things are tough? Fast bowling is an emotive art. Fast bowlers expend a lot of emotion and spend a lot of time working really hard. They usually have to bowl a lot more overs than other bowlers, sometimes 25 overs in a day, so they have to learn how to put in the time and effort in training to be able to do that. Sometimes theyll be in all-out attack mode, other times theyll need to just slow down the run rate. There will be a lot more tough days than successful days in a fast-bowling career. Not everyone is prepared to do it when its tough.What about learning to go through the pain barrier? Some will, others wont. Its just about the nature of the individual, their outlook on life. As a coach, you cant do much to change that. Some will keep going for the team when they have a niggle, others will walk straight off the field as soon as they feel something.Should a bowlers approach change depending on whether conditions are in their favour or not? If its a greentop or a flat track, either way its all about pressure and patience. A fast bowler shouldnt get too carried away when conditions are in their favour, trying to bowl big swinging, seaming, bouncing deliveries. That looks good, but theyll want the batsman to actually nick off to the keeper and the slips, not just to miss the ball, or, worse still, leave it. When its slow and low, a fast bowler needs a different type of patience. They must build pressure over time, with accurate bowling that makes it difficult for the batsman to score, gets the batsman frustrated and makes them more likely to take risks.Do fast bowlers always know before the game whether conditions will be in their favour? They have to assess conditions early on. Within the first few balls theyll have an idea of the pace, bounce and whether there is any movement off the pitch or in the air. If theres not much, theyll need to bowl fuller and straighter at off stump. Anything short sits up to be hit and if theyre too wide, its too easy for the batter to score.If there is quite a bit of help in the pitch, then bowl a fourth-stump line to bring the keeper and slips into play. Dont listen too much to the slips and keeper, though. When batsmen fielding in the slips see a greentop, they start worrying about chasing too big a total and will put bowlers under pressure to take wickets. Remember to be patient. Bowl a full length and take advantage of the conditions.So control your aggression? Dont get too carried away? No, even on the most docile pitch, a fast bowler should be aggressive. The bouncer is still a potent weapon, even if a bowler has to pitch it a lot shorter. The bouncer itself might not take a wicket, but it might get the batsman playing more tentatively at the next few fuller balls. On a faster, more helpful track, the bouncer becomes a real wicket-taking option.A fast bowler shouldnt overdo the bouncer, but instead stick to their stock delivery and bowl that ball consistently. Cutters and slower balls are useful on easy-paced pitches, but a fast bowler mustnt forget that they are still a fast bowler.Do you need those variations, even when the pitch is in your favour? On a greentop, if a fast bowler can make the ball go both ways, then yes, do it. All the best quicks can do this. It keeps the batsman guessing, and eventually someone will play at a wide one they should have left because theyll be worried about the ball coming back at them. Use this to your advantage, though not too often. Youll need that consistency of line and length to make the most of your skills and the conditions.So pitch it up on a greentop? Ideally, yes. But a fast bowler is only human. Sometimes on a green top, a certain bowler will be reluctant to pitch the ball up, not because they are being arrogant, or because they have no control, but because they are worried about going for a few runs. Maybe they are struggling for rhythm or they have just had a bad game and are low on confidence. If so, or if the batter gets away to a flyer, the best thing to do is for the fast bowler to go back to bowling just a bit wider and shorter. Just for a few overs, bowl to the keeper. Then, when the bowler has their rhythm back or the score has slowed a bit, they can go back onto the offensive, refocus their attack on off stump and just outside.Are international cricket grounds too batsman-friendly? I walked out onto the pitch at the Wanderers not long ago, just before a T20 match. I looked down at the wicket. There was no grass and not likely to be much bounce. Its at moments like these that you realise just how tough it is for fast bowlers these days. You can go for eight or nine an over in a T20 without bowling badly. Countries that dont have really quick bowlers of their own prepare flat pitches to counteract those who have them. It was good to see a green wicket for the first New Zealand-Pakistan Test in November.Do you feel sorry for young bowlers these days, trying to learn their trade with so much T20 cricket around? In that same T20 game [at the Wanderers], an 18-year-old fast bowler, in one of his first games, went for 41 runs in his four overs. And he didnt bowl that badly. You could see him walk down to fine leg looking despondent, maybe worrying about whether he would be picked for the next game. Thats the time when it is important for an experienced player or a coach to speak to the young bowler and help them understand that they havent failed. Maybe the batsman has played some unbelievable shots. Maybe the wicket was an easy one to bat on. Sometimes even the worlds best bowlers get smashed around in T20. Its important that young bowlers understand this, so that they are not too hard on themselves. Yes, the bowler may have had a bad day today, or bowled a bad over, or even just bowled a bad ball. But it could be a good day tomorrow. Their next over might be a good over. Or even the next ball. They always have another chance.Should young bowlers workloads be restricted? Thats debatable. Yes, young bowlers workloads have to be managed properly, but you can go too far with that. In the recent series between South Africa A and Australia A, Australia would pick one attack, they would do well in a four-day game, and then for the next game Australia would change their whole attack. If it were down to me, I would rotate the bowlers between matches, maybe, but only one at a time. I wouldnt change the entire attack. Bowlers need to bowl regularly to become their best, develop the muscle memory and their bowling skills. But with kids today, you know that some days they will need to rest. Coaches need to understand that even if a young quick is their star bowler and they need to win a game, they wont be able to use the bowler all the time, not without risking injury.You were a pretty decent quick bowler yourself. Tell us a bit about your own bowling. I joined a cricket club aged 13 and just wanted to bowl fast. Before that, my passion was football. By the time I got into the first team, I realised that you needed more than just speed. At first I wanted to be the fastest. Later I also wanted to be the best.What type of bowler were you? I was an out-and-out quick bowler, although there were days when Id bowl at medium pace because it was too much to charge in and try and bowl at your fastest all the time. My hero, growing up, was Michael Holding. I tried to model myself on him, although I didnt have the sort of beautiful action he had. I was more of a slinger.Did you have any coaching when you were a kid? Not like there is now. We just had senior players who would advise us, help us stay focused.Was it frustrating not being able to play international cricket because of apartheid? A long time ago I made my peace that I would never play for my country. Apartheid was all over our life. I played a few games for Western Province at the end of my career, including the Benson and Hedges final in 1992. I decided that I would make my mark on South African and international cricket as a coach instead. I did my cricket and football coaching qualifications in Scotland when I was over there playing club cricket.Ive been fortunate working with so many great fast bowlers who not only have the talent but work so hard for the team too. How much does it help young fast bowlers to have experienced quicks around when they first come into the side? What could be better for a young paceman than having Dale Steyn at mid-on and Vernon Philander at mid-off? Having that sort of experience around you is invaluable whether youre a bowler or a batsman. I remember JP Duminys debut for Western Province. He walked out to the wicket after Herschelle Gibbs was out. Out there waiting for him was Gary Kirsten.Does it take the pressure off a young bowler if experienced, quality team-mates are leading the attack? Say the difference between Kagiso Rabada, who had Steyn and Philander in the team when he started, and Kemar Roach, who came into the West Indies side as a young bowler and was pretty soon expected to be the teams main strike weapon. The youngster can bowl around the more experienced bowlers, yes. Make a contribution while developing their skills, decision-making and experience. Then, if the young bowler has an off day - as all young bowlers are prone to do - other bowlers will still be taking wickets and making it tough for the opposition batsman. The teams performance will not suffer and the young bowler has more time to develop.Andile Phehlukwayo looks a decent prospect. What can you tell us about him? Hes a decent allrounder, actually. He can bowl fast and he hits the ball well. I was surprised he was picked in the one-day team and not the Test side, because he is actually a better four-day bowler than he is a one-day bowler. He impressed me a lot during the A tour to Australia. Hes definitely one for the future. I would like to see him now putting in some more good games for his franchise.Who is the fastest bowler you have ever worked with? Dale Steyn, definitely. Whereas Morne Morkel will bowl 140kph-plus all the time, Dale will go between 125kph and over 150kph depending on the wicket, the situation and whether the batsman has just hit him for a couple of fours.Which South African fast bowler would you least like to face in the nets? Definitely Morne Morkel. He has the bounce as well as the pace. During the Proteas practice sessions, youd always hear batsmen complaining if they had to face Morkel too much. When Jacques Kallis first faced him in the nets, when Morne was just a young net bowler, Jacques was so impressed he wanted Morkel in the team right away. I am not enjoying facing him at all, Jacques told everyone. JaWhaun Bentley Womens Jersey .

BUFFALO, N. Dante Pettis Jersey .Y. -- Following a rare offensive burst in a win over the Los Angeles Kings on Tuesday, the Buffalo Sabres are finally getting healthier on the back end.After dealing with injuries on defense all season long, the Sabres (11-11-6) see the light at the end of the tunnel heading into a matchup with the New York Islanders on Friday. Defensemen Zach Bogosian and Taylor Fedun participated in practice on Thursday and both are nearing a return to the lineup -- which would give the Sabres a full roster of defensemen for one of the first times this season.As a team, its great, Fedun said, according to The Buffalo News. Weve had some key injuries back there. Its definitely a good problem for us to have going forward.We havent been in that situation the whole year long, so frankly its a new situation for us here at the 29-game mark, Sabres head coach Dan Bylsma said, according to The Buffalo News. Each defenseman thats stepped up and played for us has brought a little bit different element.Buffalo squares off against the Islanders at 7 p.m. on Friday.Bogosian has not played since Nov. 1 due to a knee sprain. The veteran is one of Buffalos top defensemen when healthy. Fedun last played on Dec. 3. When both return, the Sabres will likely have to send a player back down to the AHL with eight defensemen on the roster.In a 6-3 win over Los Angeles on Tuesday, the Sabres scored four goals in a span of 6:13 for a comeback win. Sophomore standout Jack Eichel had two goals and an assist, and Ryan OReilly, Brian Gionta, Evander Kane and Sam Reinhart also scored for the Sabres.Once we kind of got on a role, we stayed with it, OReilly said. Goal after goal, you could feel the life in the building. Everything just kind of changed. We took the game over.The Sabres have five games over the next eight days before their holiday break.After the loss to Washington, we really looked at these six games before the break for us to really bear down and focus here, Bylsma said, according to the teams website. I think thats really why the L.A. win is a real big win for this group and one we want to keep going here. ... Its just a stretch of time I the season where we really have to bear down and try and get some wins here and go on a roll.The Islanders (11-13-5) are coming off three consecutive losses, including a 5-4 loss to the Chicago Blackhawks on Thursday night. The Islanders lost in a back-and-forth affair on Richard Paniks tie-breaking goal with just over six minutes remaining.In each of those losses, the Islanders have entered the third period tied only to fall late.Turn around, right back at it tomorrow night, Islanders defenseman Travis Hamonic said. Points are crucial this time of year. Were well aware of whats at stake and where we want to get to as a group. Weve been playing some good hockey. Weve just got to get right back into it.According to Newsday, youngster J-F Berube will get the start for the Islanders in net against Buffalo. It will be the first start of the season for him. 49ers Jerseys Store .com) - Richie Incognito has reportedly been admitted to a psychiatric care unit in Arizona. Wholesale 49ers Jerseys .

The year was 2004. Seahawks Jerseys From China . A then-8-year-old Irene Liao walked into a Nike store in Taiwan and saw a life-size cardboard cutout of Michael Jordan. She knew she had to have it.I ended up buying him for around 200nt, which is six U.S. dollars, and dragging him out of the store with me, Liao told ESPN.Liao shared these memories on Twitter this week, remembering the good times her and her former best friend shared together.?For about a month, Liao says, the two were inseparable. Liao took the GOAT everywhere -- to the grocery store, to the metro, even to her piano lessons.Eventually, though, my teacher sent me home with a note and said that this was such an unhealthy phase, Liao said. I think the teacher was just annoyed, though, because when asked to partner up in the class, I said, MJ is my partner.Thankfully, it sounds as if her teacher was the only adult who had a real issue with Liaos new friend.My parents thought it was hilarious and let me do my thing, Liao said.Liao says Jordan eventually ended up getting thrown out, but at least shell always have these photos.

                                      DENVER -- The Colorado Rockies were off Thursday, giving them a day to get away from an utterly agonizing defeat before they begin a three-game series with the Arizona Diamondbacks on Friday. Cowboys Youth Jerseys .The Rockies entered the eighth inning Wednesday night leading the Los Angeles Dodgers 8-2. Colorado was poised to sweep a doubleheader and a three-game series, match its season-high five-game winning streak and move within eight games of first place in the National League West for the first time since Aug. 7.Instead, the Dodgers scored three runs in the eighth and torched closer Adam Ottavino for five runs in the ninth. The final four scored on Andrew Toles first career grand slam, giving the Dodgers a 10-8 win and leaving the stunned Rockies to wonder in amazement how things could go so wrong so fast.A day off undoubtedly benefited the Rockies, who went 12-16 in August and will continue a nine-game homestand against the Diamondbacks, who were also off Thursday.The teams have not played since June 26. The Rockies are 8-5 against the Diamondbacks this season and 3-4 at Coors Field.Rockies third baseman Nolan Arenado will try to carry his torrid August into September. He set a franchise record for RBI in the month with 36 -- Andres Galarraga set the old record of 33 August RBI in 1996 -- and hit 10 homers along with a .356/.433/.702 slash line.Arenado was actually in a slump during the month, a tailspin he escaped with a two-homer, six-RBI game Aug. 21 against the Chicago Cubs after working late the previous evening with batting practice pitcher Garrett Carson watching video and swinging in the indoor cage at Coors Field until Arenado finally determined he was overstriding.In his final 10 games in August, Arenado went 21-for-40 and hit .525/.578/1.100 with six homers and 17 RBI.I feel like about a month ago, I was kind of changing things and not thinking different pitches, but now Im thinking middle (of the field) and staying positive and trusting myself, Arenado said. Good things are happening.The Diamondbacks have been better on the road (31-34) than at home (25-43). They split two games in San Francisco and are in the midst of an eight-game trip that will conclude against the Dodgers in Los Angeles. The Diamondbacks went 14-14 in August, a vast improvement over their 7-17 July and reached .500 in a month for the first time this season.The Diamondbacks welcomed the recent return of center fielder A.J. Pollock. He broke his right elbow in the waning days of spring training and was reinstated from the 60-day disabled list Aug. 26.An All-Star and Gold Glove winner last year when he hit .315 with 20 homers, 76 RBI and 39 stolen bases, Pollock went hitless in eight at-bats in his first two games but has gone 6-for-12 in his past three with three runs scored, two walks and four stolen bases. His five-month absence left a huge void in the Diamondbacks offense and defense.When you have a player like A.J., whos multi-dimensional, he just takes (care of) the defense at centerfield, and that by itself is a game-changer many times, Diamondbacks chief baseball officer Tony La Russa said. Then you take away what he does offensively. He has a very live bat -- .300 hitter with a ball that jumps (off the bat) and really has exciting legs.Left-hander Robbie Ray will start for Arizona. Hes 7-12 with a 4.28 ERA and is averaging 11.2 strikeouts per nine innings, second in the majors behind Miamis Jose Fernandez (12.7). Ray will have six days rest since his last start Aug. 25 against Atlanta when he gave up two runs and six hits in five innings and took the loss in Atlantas 3-1 win.On his past four starts, Ray is 2-1 with a 1.50 ERA (29 innings, four earned runs) with seven walks and 29 strikeouts.Ray is 1-1 with a 4.10 ERA in five career starts against the Rockies and 1-0 with a 2.76 ERA in three career starts at Coors Field. In two games against the Rockies this season, Ray is 0-1 with an 8.31 ERA.The Diamondbacks are 38-60 against right-handed starters but 18-17 against lefties and will face one for the second straight game. They lost 4-2 Wednesday at San Francisco when Matt Moore started, and Jorge De La Rosa will start for the Rockies.De La Rosa is 8-7 with a 5.09 ERA and is coming off a no-decision Aug. 26 at Washington where he gave up eight hits and three runs in five innings with one walk and a season-high tying eight strikeouts before the Rockies won 9-4 in 11 innings.De La Rosa has not lost in seven starts since July 20 and is 2-0 with a 3.40 ERA in that span. The Rockies are 3-4 in those games.Hes 10-8 with a 3.10 ERA in 28 games, 24 starts, against Arizona in his career. De La Rosa is 1-0 with a 5.06 ERA in two starts this season against the Diamondbacks. Leighton Vander Esch Jersey . -- Lou Brocks shoulder-to-shoulder collision with Bill Freehan during the 1968 World Series and Pete Roses bruising hit on Ray Fosse in the 1970 All-Star game could become relics of baseball history, like the dead-ball era. Cowboys Jerseys Store . 8 Kansas to a 64-63 win over Texas Tech on Tuesday night. The freshman from Vaughan, Ont. http://www.authenticcowboysshopnfl.com/bo-scarbrough-jersey/ .ca looks back at the stories and moments that made the year memorable. Its easy to appraise Jalen Hurts by the numbers: The yards, the touchdowns and the wins.But perhaps the most notable number is his age, 18. Top-ranked Alabamas freshman quarterback has shown poise beyond his years under the pressure of leading the Crimson Tide to a Southeastern Conference title and playoff berth.Alabamas offensive leader is just a teenager from Texas who hadnt let a team to a championship since he was an 8-year-old on the East Houston Aggies. He hasnt often looked like an 18-year-old on the field.Im a firm believer in age being nothing but a number, Hurts said. And I feel like if you step up to any situation and youre able to play your game, be confident, have the poise you need to have, youll be all right.Hurts is trying to become only the second true freshman quarterback to lead a major college team to a national title. Oklahomas Jamelle Holloway replaced an injured Troy Aikman in 1985 and led the Sooners to eight straight wins.So far, Hurts is a perfect 12-0 as a starter since claiming the job after the opener and has been named SEC offensive player of the year. His journey to a College Football Playoff semifinal matchup with No. 4 Washington on Dec. 31 hasnt been all paved in crimson glory, but more a season-long rubber band-like grind of snapping back from negative plays, like a fumble that Mississippi returned for a touchdown. Big plays often follow the bad ones.Hurts has gotten better later in games, including in the second half of the Iron Bowl against Auburn and the SEC championship game against Florida.Thats unusual because freshmen are rookies, Alabama offensive coordinator Lane Kiffin said after the SEC championship game in Atlanta. What do they do? They usually screw up in the fourth quarter. Hes special.Of course, Hurts has also had few games that were still undecided in the fourth quarter.He has of course benefited from a supporting cast full of NFL talent and the nations best defense, much like `Bama predecessors including Jake Coker, AJ McCarron and Greg McElroy -- each of whom led the Tide to national titles.Hurts arrived in Tuscaloosa in time to play Clemsons Deshaun Watson for the scout team leading up to the national championship game last season. He has been able to escape some of the grind of being quarterback of a national title contender since coach Nick Saban doesnt allow freshmen to talk to reporters during the regular season. So the SEC championship postgame scrum looked like a full-out blitz, with Hurts surrounded by reporters and TV cameras scrambling for his firsst public comments as `Bamas starter. Wholesale Cowboys Jerseys. He handled it with aplomb and didnt bite when asked to evaluate his season.As a team, I think weve done a great job, Hurts said, repeating himself when asked a second time.Being the quarterback of an active dynasty in a state where college football reigns supreme could overwhelm any player, freshman or senior.Hes handled it extremely well, said McElroy, an SEC Network analyst who helped lead the Tide to the 2009 national title. Has he been perfect? No. Is there a lot of room for improvement? Absolutely. But given the pressure and the circumstance of playing quarterback at Alabama -- as soon as youre named the starter you immediately become one of the most heavily scrutinized people in the entire state.Hurts, the son of a high school coach, has put up big numbers along the way, already running for more yards in a season than any other Tide quarterback.He has rushed for 841 yards and 12 touchdowns, keeping the offense going even when the passing game isnt clicking. He has also completed 65.3 percent of his passes for 2,592 yards and 22 touchdowns with nine interceptions.Hurts has been a better finisher than starter. He has passed for 14 touchdowns and been intercepted just twice in the second half of games, when hes also produced many of his biggest plays. That includes a 21-yard fourth-quarter touchdown run in a 10-0 win at LSU in a game that was otherwise dominated by the defenses.I think people were on him a little bit after the LSU game and I just told him, `Man, Jalen, you just went into Tiger Stadium at night in an Alabama-LSU game and won and really made the one significant play on offense, Kiffin said. Hes a special player.Hurts credits his father and prep coach, Averion, for helping him be ready to handle the challenges and successes at Alabama. Hurts also absorbed lessons by watching his older brother Averion Jr. -- a quarterback at Texas Southern -- learn the hard way.All the butt-chewings he got, I learned from those, he said. Life is all about learning.Then he went on to play for another demanding coach in Saban, who has regularly held one-on-one Sunday film sessions with his quarterback.Hurts said not even Sabans chewing-outs can match those coming from his father.There aint nothing like getting a butt-chewing from your blood, he said.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25.
