LOUIS -- Heading into the final stretch of the season, the issues for the Chicago Bears banged-up defence only seem to be getting worse. Slowly but surely, the Matador Cups national footprint is expanding again. Its New South Wales-centric schedule has been a source of considerable angst among other teams since the tournament was moved to an early season carnival format three years ago, but a smattering of matches in Perth and Brisbane this year mean the Blues will not be the only team playing at home.Last seasons competition was affected by the cancellation of Australias Bangladesh tour for security reasons, meaning it was contested by full strength teams across all six states. This time around the scenario is rather different: not only is the Australian ODI team on tour in South Africa, but numerous bowlers, notably Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood, are absent injured or resting.This means a knock-on effect for numerous states, most notably South Australia. The reward for emergent displays in both the Matador Cup and the Sheffield Shield last year mean than no fewer than four first-choice Redbacks - Travis Head, Adam Zampa, Daniel Worrall and Joe Mennie - are in South Africa. The coach Jamie Siddons has acknowledged the challenge ahead.We feel ready despite missing bowlers from last years attack and its going to be difficult without them, Siddons said. But we have a couple of young guys that have some tricks in their repertoire. Its not going to be easy or the same, we have to find another way of doing it with different types of players and were ready and aiming for similar success.I think its really exciting watching the young guys play and the next step is to promote a few more of them like Jake Lehmann, Jake Weatherald, Alex Ross and Alex Carey - who are all really good chances of pushing their names forward now. Our aim is to be successful again and win games and if those guys step up like I think they will we should match last year - maybe were looking at batsmen to step up instead of the bowlers this time.Victoria are another state needing to reach deeper into their squad for bowlers in particular, with John Hastings, Scott Boland and Chris Tremain in South Africa and Peter Siddle and James Pattinson still working their way back from injury. The new coach Andrew McDonald, only recently returned from Leicestershire to replace David Saker, must also work with Glennn Maxwell in the aftermath of the enigmatic allrounders ill-timed bid to move to NSW for the summer. Anthony Munoz Jersey. McDonalds old Bushrangers team-mate Brad Hodge has s still more vexing task as the mentor of the Cricket Australia XI, a youthful hodgepodge (no pun intended) of players from across the states who did not make it into the first-choice squads. This is the second of a two-year experiment with the XI, designed to provide additional opportunities for young players against the best of domestic players.The concept has not been universally loved, even if the CA XI recovered last season from a horrid start to win a game over Tasmania and produce a handful of players - Hilton Cartwright, Mitch Swepson, Jimmy Peirson - able to progress further over the course of the season that followed. Many among the states feel the team is emblematic of CAs desire for central developmental control, rather than simply building the most competitive tournament possible. A lack of any senior players to leaven out the youth, even with the likes of Ben Rohrer, Chris Hartley and Chadd Sayers available, has only heightened that impression.Justin Langer, coach of Western Australia, spoke for many of the tension between development and competition. The Sheffield Shield too has been subject to numerous stratagems designed to help the Australian team overall, but experiments like pink ball matches and the use of Dukes balls for a portion of the shield this season has left Langer and others questioning their wisdom.We make Cricket Australia very aware that we have to keep the integrity of the game, he said. We have the best domestic competition in the world, but it is frustrating at times. This season we will play two pink-ball games, three with red Kookaburras and five with Dukes balls and hopefully six with the Dukes. I like consistency.Consistent or not, the Matador will afford many players the chance to either secure their state spots at the outset of the season, or put their names in lights for Australian selection into the future. Whether in Perth, Brisbane or Sydney, many a selection question will get closer to being answered.

CHARLOTTE, N. Asics Gel Kinsei 6 Mens .C. -- The Carolina Panthers are trying their best to emulate last seasons Kansas City Chiefs.To do that, they must beat this seasons Chiefs on Sunday.The 2015 Chiefs did what 90 other NFL teams since 1990 had failed to do -- rebound from a 1-5 start to make the playoffs. They did it by running the table, winning their final 10 regular-season games.Carolina started 1-5 this season. But it has won two games since the bye week and there is a renewed sense of confidence and momentum. Panthers coach Ron Rivera said he shared the Chiefs story with his team a couple of weeks ago, telling them there is hope.Its been done before, Rivera said.Last years league MVP Cam Newton believes the Panthers have what it takes to bounce back.The seasons not over yet, Newton said. ... Were right where we want to be. Were in a position to compete and challenge teams and they know that.It wont be easy.The Chiefs are riding a four-game winning streak and have won 16 of their last 18 regular season games.Rivera said he briefly thought about calling Reid, whom he worked under as an assistant coach in Philadelphia, to get some advice, but thought better of it knowing the Chiefs were coming up on the schedule.If theres anybody that can turn things around for the NFC champions it would seem to be Newton. Although the Panthers started last season 14-0, they are typically slow starters -and strong finishers -- under the 2011 No. 1 pick. Newton has won 72 percent (31-12) of the games hes started from November through January, as opposed to 42 percent (17-24-1) in September and October.ALEX RETURNS: Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith is back under center after missing last weeks game against Jacksonville with a head injury. Smith was never diagnosed with a concussion, but two hard hits he sustained in Indianapolis left him woozy on the field, and Reid decided early last week that sitting out a game would be in Smiths best interest.Nick Foles started in his place.I felt really good regardless, Smith said. Thankfully Nick and the rest of the guys got the W, thats what is most important. Obviously I was doing everything I could to try and help in whatever way it is. Im pumped and happy to get back and get going this week.FORD TOUGH: Chiefs pass rusher Dee Ford was a teammate with Newton at Auburn. Newton remembers it well.Hes always had that professional sense that you had to respect, and I saw that at Auburn, and its just great to see hard work pay off, Newton said.The Chiefs only have 16 sacks this season and nine of those belong to Ford. The 2014 first-round pick was largely considered a bust before coming on late last year, and hes been crucial as the Chiefs await Justin Houstons return from knee surgery. And 5 1-2 of those sacks have come in the last two weeks.I think hes very comfortable with the defense now, Reid said. Its a fairly complicated defense, but hes got a pretty good grasp of it. I think hes probably gotten stronger since weve gotten him. I think hes spent a ton of time in that weight room. Hes got himself in shape to where he can do this back-to-back thing.HOUSTON, WE HAVE NO PROBLEM: Chiefs linebacker Houston makes his first return to the lineup this week after recovering from a knee injury last season. The four-time Pro Bowl pass rusher was removed from the physically unable to perform list earlier this week, but has not played in a game since having surgery to repair his left ACL in February.SACK ATTACK: Carolina is getting after the QB. The Panthers have a dozen sacks in their last two games, matching their total from the first six games. A big part of that is the Panthers playing with the lead and playing less mobile quarterbacks in Carson Palmer and Case Keenum. This week theyll face Smith, who has deceiving speed and athleticism.CENTER OF ATTENTION: Keep an eye on the Panthers center situation. Two-time All-Pro Ryan Kalil and his backup Gino Gradkowski have been held out of practice this week, which means guard Chris Scott could be pressed into duty. Scott has very limited experience playing center, which could make it interesting if the Panthers limit the number of snaps Newton takes from the shotgun.---AP Sports Writer Dave Skretta in Kansas City contributed to this report.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFLAP Asics Gel Kayano 20 . -- Jaye Marie Green shot a 4-under 68 on Thursday to increase her lead to five strokes after the second round of the LPGA Tours qualifying tournament. Asics Gel Kinsei 6 Womens . -- Bryant McKinnie came out of his stance and lowered his shoulder into a practice squad player, causing a crisp thud to reverberate in the Miami Dolphins practice bubble. http://www.kliqplan.com/onitsuka-tiger-mexico-66-sale-outlet/onitsuka-tiger-mexico-66-yellow.html . Both players have lower body injuries that will keep them out of the lineup until at least January 31, which is the first game they can be activated from IR. SEATTLE -- Riding the longest win streak in baseball that put them back into the playoff conversation, the Seattle Mariners return home was a collective dud.Worst of all may have been seeing Felix Hernandez stumble in his biggest start of the season.We are playing really good ball and to come in here and kind of throw a clunker out there, not exactly what we were looking for tonight, but it does happen, Seattle manager Scott Servais said.Collin McHugh allowed just two hits in seven stellar innings and Hernandez failed to make it through the fifth as the Houston Astros ended Seattles eight-game win streak with a 6-0 win on Friday night.Seattle dropped to three games behind Baltimore and Toronto in the AL wild-card race after McHugh baffled the Mariners all night. He didnt allow a base runner until Nori Aokis leadoff single in the fourth inning and Seattles only other hit off McHugh was Kyle Seagers single with two outs in the seventh.McHugh (11-10) improved to 9-3 in his career against Seattle and 4-0 this season with a 1.08 ERA. McHugh is 6-0 in his career at Safeco Field.We just dont see the ball well off of him, Servais said. We knew going into the game tonight was going to be a challenge for us, but he was certainly on top of his game.Meanwhile, Hernandez (11-6) stumbled in his biggest start of the season. With the Mariners back in contention, Hernandez failed to get through five innings, giving up five earned runs and eight hits.For Seattle fans it was a similarly disappointing outing by Hernandez to the 2014 season when Seattle was in the wild-card race but lasted only 4 2/3 innings in a 10-2 loss at Toronto in the final week of the season. Fortunately these Mariners still have 15 games remaining.Disappointing. Its a poor performance by me, Hernandez said. You know what, tomorrow is another day. Weve just got to keep fighting.Solo homers by Evan Gattis and Marwin Gonzalez in the fifth were the capper to Hernandezs miserable night. Gattis led off the inning with his 27th home run and Gonzalez followed with his 13th that knocked Hernandez from the game. Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 Shoes. Gonzalez now has 37 career home runs, 11 of those against Seattle.Hernandez was in trouble long before the two home runs. Jake Marisnicks two-run double in the second inning gave Houston the lead and the Astros added on with Carlos Correas RBI double in the third after Jose Altuve reached on an error and Yuli Gurriel added an RBI single in the fourth.I missed a lot of spots today, Hernandez said. I was pretty much in the middle of the plate. Ball was moving all over the place, I got behind a lot and they got me.Houston manager A.J. Hinch praised the patience of his hitters not expanding the strike zone against Hernandez and making him throw strikes.We didnt chase a lot tonight and if you dont chase with him and you make him bring the ball in the strike zone hes human again, Hinch said.SHUT DOWNSeattle was shutout for just the second time since July 24 and sixth time this season. Five of those have come at Safeco Field. The Mariners also had their streak of 14 straight games with a home run snapped.The three hits were the fewest for the Mariners since a 10-1 loss at Pittsburgh on July 27.TRAINERS ROOMAstros: 3B Alex Bregman could miss the rest of the regular season with a hamstring injury suffered on Wednesday. Bregman did not travel with the team for its road trip and remained in Houston to get treatment.Mariners: Even after a day off, 1B Adam Lind still had some pain around his thumb and was out of the lineup for a fourth straight game. Servais was hopeful Lind would be available on Saturday.UP NEXTAstros: RHP Mike Fiers (10-7) makes his 28th start of the season. Fiers lasted just 3 1/3 innings in his only other start against Seattle this season, giving up four earned runs.Mariners: LHP James Paxton (4-6) will make his fifth start since coming off the disabled list on Aug. 25 but does not have a win since Aug. 7.

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. Allen Hurns Jersey . -- Former University of Alabama softball player Haylie McCleney earned the prestigious NCAA Top 10 Award, the NCAA announced Friday.The NCAA Top 10 Award recognizes student-athletes who have completed their athletic eligibility for their success in competition, in the classroom and in the community. Recipients will be honored in January at the NCAA Honors and Delegates Celebration at the 2016 NCAA Convention in the Nashville, Tenn., area.What a tremendous way to finish an incredible career at Alabama - with the highest honor a student-athlete can receive from the NCAA, UA head coach Patrick Murphy said. All of us realized we had something special in Haylie the athlete when she initially said yes to us. We just didnt know Haylie the young woman was going to be just as special or better. Shes made me a better person in the four years I got to spend with her. She made us all better.McCleney is the second Alabama softball player to earn NCAA Top 10 recognition, joining Brittany Rogers, who earned the honor in 2009.This is another extraordinary honor for an extraordinary career, UA Director of Athletics Bill Battle said. It has been a privilege to watch as Haylie piled up honor after honor, on the diamond and in the classroom, during her amazing career. She is a testament to what can be accomplished when the pursuit of excellence is your everyday focus.A four-year All-American, McCleney earned first-team honors in three of her four seasons. She completed her senior season in 2016 with four school career records, including a .447 career batting average. McCleney is just the fifth player in program history and the 21st in NCAA history to total 300 hits, 200 runs and 100 stolen bases. She is a four-time All-SEC and SEC All-Defensive team honoree.She is a three-time First Team CoSIDA Academic All-American and a two-time Softball Academic All-American of the Year selection, just the third two-time winner for the sport of softball since the yearly award was introduced in 1988.McCleney is just the second UA softball player to earn First Team honors as an All-American and Academic All-American in the same season, doing so three times over her career. She was named the 2016 H. Boyd McWhorter SEC Female Scholar-Athlete of the Year and was the 2015 SECs Softball Scholar-Athlete of the Year. In 2016, McCleney graduated with a 4.0 cumulative grade point average in exercise science and won the Senior CLASS Award, which celebrates senior student-athletes who use their platform in athletics to make a positive impact as community leaders, and was a finalist for NCAA Woman of the Year honors.The 14th Alabama athlete to receive the prestigious honor, McCleneys selection marks the ninth time in 11 years an Alabama student-athlete has received the award, joining Kim Jacob (gymnastics/2014), Barrett Jones (football/2013), Brooke Pancake (womens golf/2012), Kayla Hoffman (gymnastics/2011), Greg McElroy (football/2010), Rogers, Beth Mallory (track and field/2007) and DeMeco Ryans (football/2006).To have a Crimson Tide student-athlete earn this prestigious honor nine times in a span of just over a decade is an amazing accomplishment and a great point of pride for our Athletics Department and the University as a whole, Battle said.Alabamas previous NCAA Top 10 (formerly Top VIII) recipients include: Randy Hall (football/1975), Steadman Shealy (football/1980), Meredith Willard (gymnastics/1997), Andreé Pickens (gymnastics/2002), Sterner (gymnastics/2003), Rogers, McElroy, Hoffman, Pancake, Jones and Jacob.

Seahawks running back Christine Michael is expected to play Sunday night against the Patriots, a source told ESPNs Adam Schefter. Ronnie Lott Jersey .?He should be good, the source said.?Michael was a late addition to the injury report Friday, with the Seahawks listing him as questionable because of a hamstring injury despite the running backs being on the field for the portion of practice open to the media.?Michael has slowed down in recent weeks, rushing for fewer than 100 yards total in Seattles past three games -- including a five-carry, 1-yard performance Monday night against the Bills.?Rookie C.J. Prosise has taken a bite out of Michaels workload. In the past two games, Prosise has played 47 snaps, compared with 43 for Michael.?The Seahawks run game overall has struggled all season -- largely due to quarterback Russell Wilsons injuries and poor blocking.

More than 700 people gathered this weekend at the Las Vegas Convention Centers Evolution Championship Series to compete in the franchise that was responsible for the creation of the ESRB rating system: Mortal Kombat. The top eight out of the 700 who make it through the competition will compete at the series debut at Mandalay Bay.One player who has made it to the top eight, the one who continually impressed spectators over the past few months: Texas resident Brad Scar Vaughn. Scar, known for his proficiency on Sonya Blade, has come close to winning it all before, taking second at Community Effort Orlando 2016 last June. He has come a long way -- and he wants to win more than ever.Going into this EVO, I feel like Im the strongest Ive ever been, he said. In the past games, going into EVO, I havent been as strong as I have been recently. Making second at KIT, doing good at ESL, and coming here, being in the position Im in with Sonya Blade, the game plan I have now, and the changes Ive been making while playing the character, I feel like I have a really good shot, more than ever to take this tournament.Each time hes tried, hes had one obstacle in his way: Dominique Sonic Fox McLean, inarguably Mortal Kombat Xs best player. Sonic Fox has taken every major tournament within the last year, including Evo 2015 a year ago. Scar came close at CEO, but was unable to close out the series despite having a 2-1 lead early on.I feel like since Sonic Fox is the best player in the world, then you have A F0xy Grampa who also gives me trouble, but outside of that, were looked at as the top three players in Mortal Kombat X right now, he explained. So I feel like when it comes to those two guys and as well as them going against me, it could go either way... Sonic is my main goal because when it comes to tournament, as far as offline, I have yet to secure a match win against him. Going to this tournament, if I do face him, then hopefully I can bring it out.Scar made it to the Mandalay Bay for Sundays top eight, and unlike many esports players, he said he doesnt suffer from tournament nerves once he gets his first match of the day out of the way.I feel like theres no difference than any other tournament, he explained on his mindset of playing at such a big event. So it doesnt matter how many people are watching me play, even though its probably the biggest stage Ive ever played on [if I make it.] Ill treat it just as the resst of the tournaments Ive competed in. C.J. Beathard Jersey. When asked about characters outside of Smoke and Sonya, Scar said Ive actually wanted to dive into Mileena. Ive talked to a well-known player by the name of Sawface, whos a well-known Mileena player, and he played all three variations. I originally wanted to come to EVO with that character in my pocket... I wanted to use that character and she already has really good tools.But despite being one of the best in Mortal Kombat X, Scar, alongside many of his peers, is looking forward to a new game that releases in 2017, Injustice 2. That game, developed by the creator of Mortal Kombat, NetherRealm, features DC Comics characters, the likes of Batman, Superman, The Flash, Supergirl and Wonder Woman.And one problem that Mortal Kombat has always encountered is its gore and graphic violence and how that translates to the mainstream viewer. This often keeps people away from the game. For players and fans, its not big deal, but outside the bubble, it keeps people away.Scar said he hopes that Injustice 2 can fix that, and brings together new players, companies and teams into the NetherRealm-centric community. He believes most Mortal Kombat players will play Injustice, and hopes that the game succeeds.I think [Mortal Kombat] has kind of pushed into the mainstream because I know with Mortal Kombat 9, there was very little money in it like MKX has now, he said. The blood and gore is always gonna be a little iffy with some of the top sponsors and stuff like that, and the world named companies. But I feel like thats gonna change with Injustice 2 and I feel like Injustice is gonna be that game that allows big companies and sponsors to gravitate towards it.He says that giving fans the ability to relate to their favorite superheroes will play a big part in pushing Injustice 2 forward, in his opinion.Everyone loves their superhero characters, everyone is familiar with Batman and Superman, Scar explained. Theres not gonna be much gore in this game, if any, and people can identify their best players with the characters in the game. Everyone wants to be the best Batman, the best Superman, the best Flash. I feel like that game is gonna naturally let big companies and sponsors pour more money than they would into MKX because of the blood and gore.

Just like that, were halfway through the NFL preseason. Mike Hull Jersey . And Im back for my second straight week of giving my top 10 takeaways of the action.Its easy to ignore these exhibition games, as the results really mean nothing and the slates for all teams will be wiped clean when the regular season starts. But we like to watch them for clues of how the starting units are coming together, as well as to evaluate players farther down the depth chart in case theyre needed during the regular season.The results have been far from meaningless for those betting these games, and after underdogs went 11-5 (72.7 percent) against the spread in Preseason Week 1, they picked up where they left off by going 5-1 ATS in the games this past Thursday night.

Miikka Kiprusoff had just announced his retirement after a decade-long run in Calgary and it would be up to Berra and Ramo to fill the void. The AFL premiership race tightened on Saturday, when Hawthorn were made to look silly in a 29-point loss to Melbourne at the MCG.The Hawks were denied a 10th straight victory by the determined Demons, reducing their buffer atop the ladder to just one game.It wasnt the only headache for Hawthorn coach Alastair Clarkson, with defenders James Frawley (shoulder) and Ben Stratton (pectoral) added to the clubs injury list.The match review panel is likely to scrutinise two incidents involving Cyril Rioli, who returned with a bang - and a bump - as he threatened to drag his side over the line.Riolis fourth goal put the Hawks in front late but Melbourne booted the final five goals of the game to prevail 17.8 (110) to 11.15 (81).If the flag favourites slip up against North Melbourne and/or West Coast in the next fortnight, it could cost them a spot in the top four.Such a scenario would be an immense blow to their hopes of a fourth straight premiership.Clarkson wasnt willing to look any further ahead than a round-21 clash with North.Were going to need to play a little bit better than today if were going to challenge them, Clarkson said.We were just well below our best ... they made us look silly at times.But weve won nine out of 10 (in a row). Theres 17 other clubs in the competition that wish they had that record.Rioli caught Clayton Oliver high with a first-quarter bump, while he dumped Neville Jetta in a bruising tackle during the second term.Cyril might still get a wweek but, if Oliver stayed down or came off the ground, it might be a much harsher penalty, AFL legend Wayne Carey said on Triple M radio. Leonte Carroo Jersey. Olivers got a hard head. He bounced up and played on - that helps Cyril a lot.The lifting tackle will be looked at.Clarkson was cautious but confident regarding Riolis bump.I cant say anything about it, he said.I didnt think there was anything in it but the powers that be will decide that.We would have been in a lot more trouble if we didnt have Cyril. He was pretty exciting.Frawley was a late withdrawal, while Stratton played no part in the second half.We need to get both of those guys assessed during the week to see their availability, Clarkson said.It meant we were a bit less stable in our back end than wed like ... thats not usually the way we defend.Clarkson also lamented his sides sloppy goal-kicking, with Jack Gunstons haul of 2.4 making him the worst offender.Youve got to take your chances, Clarkson said.Midfielders Dom Tyson, Nathan Jones and Jack Viney were all magnificent for Melbourne, while ruckman Max Gawn produced arguably the highlight of his incredible season.Gawn clutched eight contested marks, tallied 41 hit-outs and booted a goal in a best-on-ground performance.To win those games, you have to have everyone playing good footy and we did, Demons coach Paul Roos said.

San Francisco Giants manager Bruce Bochy was released from a Miami hospital after spending the night there with an undisclosed illness, and the plan was for him to manage against the Miami Marlins on Tuesday night. Ramon Foster Jersey .Im back at work, Bochy said via text message to The Associated Press. Thanks.Bochy missed his teams 8-7, 14-inning win Monday night in which Brandon Crawford became the first major leaguer in 41 years to record seven hits in a game.The Giants did not specify what sent the 61-year-old Bochy to the hospital Monday morning. They said in a statement then that he was resting comfortably and would be monitored overnight, then was scheduled to work Tuesday.Thats the plan now, athletic trainer Dave Groeschner said in a text to AP. He is good. He is out.Bochy underwent a heart procedure in February 2015 to insert two stents. He arrived at spring training in February having undergone arthroscopic left shoulder surgery and was taking heavy painkillers at the time, which is customary post-operation. He had suffered shoulder pain since last year, and it was so bad he had a hard time pulling on a jacket despite several cortisone injections.Bochy has led the team to World Series titles in 2010, `12 and 14.This is Bochys 10th season managing San Francisco and his 22nd in the majors after previously spending 12 years as skipper of the NL West rival San Diego Padres. Bench coach Ron Wotus managed the opener of the three-game series in Miami. Stephon Tuitt Jersey .

You know, effervescent, jolly, go-lucky, smiling all the time, doing things for other people.There was just no way to tell Salaam had these kind of demons inside him, Plati added. I was as close to him as anybody and loved the guy ... and wish I could have noticed or done something for him or wished that he would have called me.Salaams death stunned the Colorado football community which this year celebrated a revival with a 10-3 record, an appearance in the Pac-12 championship game and the Buffaloes first bowl bid in almost a decade.You talk about a young man who was smart, handsome, talented. He was very, very gifted. He was humble. He was a team guy, Bill McCartney, who coached Salaam from 1992-94, told The Associated Press.McCartney remembered Salaam as a natural leader.His personality was infectious. He just had a warmth about him, a genuineness about him that was really contagious, McCartney said. On the surface, he had everything. We thought he was a cut above, and he turned out to be.Former teammate Matt Russell, now the Denver Broncos director of player personnel, said Salaam was a fiercely loyal friend, the ultimate teammate and the very definition of a winner.He practiced hard, he played hard and he made our teams better, Russell said. My heart goes out to Rashaans mother and his family. They have a lot to be proud of with the person that Rashaan was, the way he treated people and the friend he was to everyone he came across. He will be missed by so many.Salaam rushed for 2,055 yards and 24 touchdowns as a junior in 1994, leading the Buffaloes to an 11-1 record, a win over Notre Dame in the Fiesta Bowl and a No. 3 finish in the final polls. He won the Heisman in a runaway.I went to New York with him, McCartney recalled. I was thrilled for him. Im pretty sure hes the only Buff that ever got that award. When we recruited him we knew he was special ... he just kept getting better.His work ethic was renowned. Former teammate Blake Anderson cant forget how Salaam used to lift weights with the offensive linemen, because thats how strong he was, and how dedicated he was.We were blessed with aan incredible team and love for one another, said Anderson, who was a receiver on the `94 team that also included fellow receiver Michael Westbrook and quarterback Kordell Stewart. Tyson Alualu Jersey. It was just an awesome, awesome experience to have the magnitude of the players that we had on that team, not only for their abilities to play football, but their abilities to love and be great friends, which we all are currently today.We are all hurting tremendously today.Salaam was one of the nations most prized recruits coming out of eight-man football at La Jolla Country Day, a private school in San Diego. His father played freshman football at CU in 1963 before transferring to San Diego State to be closer to home.When we recruited him and got him to commit, it was huge, McCartney said. We knew that he was going to distinguish himself. He was very highly recruited. I can remember how happy we were. He lived up to all our expectations. He was a tough kid, he was rugged, he had great acceleration, great athleticism.The Chicago Bears made him a first-round draft pick in 1995, and he rushed for 1,074 yards and 10 touchdowns in winning NFC Rookie of the Year honors.Injuries cut short his career. He only scored three rushing TDs in the next two years in Chicago and played his last NFL game with the Cleveland Browns in 1999. Salaam played for the Memphis Maniax of the defunct XFL and attempted one last comeback with the NFL before retiring.He was the only Heisman Trophy winner in the state of Colorado, Plati said. That could have been a burden in later years because he kind of felt he didnt have the great professional career that should have followed that. But that doesnt matter, its what you did to win the Heisman and hes an icon in college football.Rick Neuheisel, who was an assistant coach in Boulder when Salaam won the Heisman, said the play that epitomizes Salaams career for him was the Miracle at Michigan, when Stewarts 64-yard Hail Mary to Michael Westbrook on the final play beat the Wolverines 27-26 on Sept. 24, 1994.All he did was create time for Kordell Stewart to get that play off, Neuheisel said. And if you ever see that play, Rashaan Salaam had one blocking assignment and then came back and got another blocking assignment, which allowed Kordell to kind of crow-hop up in the pocket and make the throw that well all remember for a lifetime.But there was the Heisman Trophy winner. He wasnt just about getting the ball or catching the ball. He was about, `What do I need to do for my guys so that we can have the best possible chance for success? And whether he had ball or didnt, it didnt matter, he was going to go all-out.---AP College Football Writer Ralph Russo, Associated Press writer Sadie Gurman, Associated Press videographer Peter Banda and Associated Press photographer Brennan Linsey contributed to this story.---More AP college football: http://collegefootball.ap.org Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '

FORT WORTH, Texas -- First-year TCU coach Jamie Dixon did a double-take when he saw the possibility that the Horned Frogs would have back-to-back games against Washington. Justin Simmons Jersey .When it actually happened, he stressed to his team the need to come out hungrier after beating the Huskies four days earlier in Las Vegas. Then TCU fell behind by 17 points in the first 10 minutes.Obviously that worked really well, Dixon said, able to enjoy a little sarcasm after his alma mater stayed unbeaten by rallying for an 86-71 win Wednesday night. Im working on that speech again.Alex Robinson scored 16 points, including nine on an 18-0 run that wiped out that early deficit, and freshman guard Jaylen Fisher had 14 of his 15 after halftime in the rare back-to-back meeting of non-conference foes.Robinson had a career-high 24 points in the first meeting of the Big 12 and Pac-12 opponents in the Global Sports Classic on Saturday. The Horned Frogs (7-0) won that one 93-80, but had just three points nearly nine minutes into the rematch after missing 15 of their first 17 shots.The sophomore guard from Fort Worth capped the 18-0 run with a 3-pointer for a 23-22 lead.We werent even looking at the score to be honest, said Robinson, who had seven assists and three steals. We were just focused play by play. We knew if we got stops then eventually we would come back.Freshman Markelle Fultz led the Huskies (4-3) with 21 points, 14 rebounds and six assists -- but had six of the Huskies season-high 25 turnovers. Carlos Johnson added 13 points and eight boards.Its our first away game, said Fultz, who said he took an elbow that bloodied his mouth early in the game. When they started to come back, I think the adversity got to us and we were just rushing things.The Frogs went ahead for good on a 3-pointer late in the first half by JD Miller, who had 12 points. Kenrich Williams had 10 points, 10 rebounds and six assists while matching Robinson with three steals, a game high.After trailing by 17, TCU took its first 17-point lead with four minutes remaining when Miller blocked a layup attempt by Dominic Green and Robinson converted a three-point play at the other end for a 75-58 advantage.HERE COME THE ZAGSFultz, a likely one-and-done player who drew representatives from 16 NBA teams in his visit to Texas, will get his second true road game closer to his college home. The Huskies play at No. 8 Gonzaga on Dec. 7. Ive heard about the crowd and stuff, Fultz said. Weve just got to get mentally focused for that game.DOUBLING UPIts the fourth time since 1979-80 that Washington has played a non-conference opponent twice in the same season, but the second time in as many years. Washington beat Texas in last seasons opener in China before the Longhorns won in the Bahamas. ... The last time Washington played the same non-conference opponent in back-to-back games was at Hawaii in 1975-76, winning both. ... TCU finished the 2009-10 season with consecutive losses to Mountain West Conference foe BYU. The Frogs beat Tulsa twice in non-conference in 2013-14 before going 0-18 in Big 12 play.BIG PICTUREWashington: The Huskies were dominant early behind Fultz but faded fast. They havent shown much depth behind the McDonalds All-American and will need to find some to be competitive in the Pac-12.TCU: The Frogs had some strong preseasons under former coach Trent Johnson as well, so it remains to be seen what this means with the difficult Big 12 season looming. But the Frogs have two straight wins over Power 5 conference foe (Washington) led by a top NBA prospect.UP NEXTWashington: The Huskies get a week off before the visit to the Zags in the biggest test left before the start of Pac-12 play against Washington State on New Years Day.TCU: This was the start of eight straight games in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, seven at home. Arkansas State visits Saturday. The lone road game is at SMU.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Aqib Talib swears hes more concerned about the possible punishment Julio Jones could deliver this weekend than any discipline that might await him from NFL commissioner Roger Goodell.The Denver Broncos star cornerback could still face discipline from the league over the shooting in Dallas last summer in which he admitted accidentally shooting himself in his right leg.Im not really worried about anything except for Atlanta right now, Talib said Wednesday, a day after WFAA-TV in Dallas reported that detectives determined Talib shot himself on June 5, but that he wouldnt face any criminal charges in the case.When I heard that report yesterday, I immediately got on my iPad and started watching Julio Jones, Talib said. I cannot even worry about it. I got my hands full with enough already. Like I said, its still under review. Im not really going to talk about that right now.Dallas police confirmed the report Wednesday evening in a statement, saying Talibs attorney had provided a letter that stated Aqib Talib admitted he shot himself accidentally. But police said the investigation is ongoing.Even if he faces no legal consequences in the case, Talib could still be suspended or fined by the NFL, which doesnt require criminal charges or a conviction to mete out player punishment.NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy told The Associated Press on Wednesday that Talibs case is under review of the personal conduct policy.Coach Gary Kubiak said the Broncos are just moving forward, hes playing great, obviously having a heck of a year and (were) expecting him to keep going.Teammates arent fretting either, suggested cornerback Chris Harris Jr.Thats a weird situation, Harris said. You never know whats going to happen. You never know what the NFLs going to do anytime, with any situation. Right now, hes not in jail. So, I mean, what can you do if he didnt go to jail? He didnt do anything wrong.On Sunday, the Broncos (4-0) host the Falcons (3-1), who are coming off a 48-33 rout of Carolina in which Matt Ryan threw for 503 yards and Jones became just the sixth player in NFL history to post a 300-yard receiving game.Talib, who was sidelined for three months after suffering a gunshot wound to his right thigh and calf, has started all four of Denvers games and has three interceptions.Thats one shyy of his total from 2015 when he earned his third consecutive Pro Bowl berth, but also was suspended for one game for his deliberate eye poke to a Colts tight end, which cost him $323,529. Micheal Haley Jersey. Talib is making $8.5 million this year and GM John Elway disputed a report last month that the Broncos had talked about trading him.His off-the-field troubles aside, Talib is a locker room leader with a charismatic personality. Kubiak asked him to address the team last weekend on the eve of his return to Tampa, where he began as career.Hes always outgoing, always keeps everybody upbeat, said Harris, who also played with Talib at the University of Kansas.Thats our man, outgoing, talkative. Hes just more of a brother. Hes always had my back. Ill always have his. Hes always been that type of teammate that if you get in trouble or anything, Aqibs going to be right there for you.Talib, who has had firearm incidents in the past, told Dallas police the night he was shot that he was too intoxicated to recall details of the shooting.He required stitches but no surgery and missed the Broncos visit to the White House to celebrate their Super Bowl title.Hes offered few specifics of the shooting, other than to say he feels fortunate to still be playing football and wants to concentrate on helping the Broncos repeat as champions.Talib returned an interception 46 yards for a touchdown against Andrew Luck in Week 2, his ninth career pick-6 , and his fifth for Denver, a franchise record. Last week, he picked off a pair of passes in his return to Tampa Bay, where he played from 2008-12. Those interceptions set up Denvers first two touchdowns in the Broncos 27-7 win.Harris said Talib, whose 33 interceptions are more than any DB in the league since 2008, doesnt appear to be fazed by the specter of impending discipline from the commissioners office.Apparently its not bothering him at all, Harris said. So, if its not bothering him, its not going to bother us, and were just going to keep it rolling.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: www.twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow AP Pro Football Writer Arnie Melendrez Stapleton on Twitter: http://twitter.com/arniestapleton Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' ' 

World No 1 Novak Djokovic says he is in confident mood ahead of his return to action in the Dubai Tennis Championships this week. Cheap Panthers Jerseys . The World No 1 took a break after claiming his sixth Australian Open title earlier this year but is now ready to bid for Dubai glory and will take on Tommy Robredo of Spain in the first round.Its important to balance well to recharge and gain freshness and continue playing on a high level, said the 28-year-old Serb. Ive done it this way for the past five or six years, taking a pause after the Australian Open and returning for Dubai.I had time to regroup for the next three or four months coming up on hardcourt and clay, when there is very little free time.Ive played a lot of tennis from the start of pre-season training through the Australian Open final. I needed to cool off a little bit and do something else.Being a father and husband is also a lot of work, but it is also a lot of pleasure.Djokovic has been virtually impregnable since the start of 2015 and says he is in no mood to relinquish his grip at the top of the mens game. Sky Live: Dubai Championships Novak Djokovic will play his first match since his Australian Open triumph in Dubai I expect a lot from myself, he said. I also put in a lot of dedication to get the results that Im getting. I want to win every match I play, I feel I can beat any player on any surface.With the results Im having, I have to be optimistic, but I try not to be over-confident.I have respect for the other players, I realise that Im not the only one who wants to be the best in the world. Wawrinka will play in the Dubai event for just the third time in his career One of Djokovics few setbacks over the last 12 months came when he was beaten by Stan Wawrinka in last years French Open final.And Wawrinka, who has not won a match in two previous appearances in Dubai, will compete at the tournament this year for the first time since 2008.Its been many years since Ive played here, said the 30-year-old. I wanted to change things. A few years ago I went to South America to play on clay.Mentally, its important to see some new events. After so long away, it seems like a new tournament. That gives good energy.However, Wawrinka could face a tough opening match against Sergiy Stakhovsky of the Ukraine.Watch live action from the Dubai Championships, with Novak Djokovic on court this Monday, starting at 10am on Sky Sports 3.

LONDON -- After fending off a break point to hold at the start of the fifth set, Andy Murray turned to his box, shook his finger and said: Theres no way Im losing this match.He backed that up by breaking Jo-Wilfried Tsonga for a 2-0 lead in the decider, having earlier surrendered a two-set lead on Centre Court. You could only enjoy how fired up he was, bounding around and pumping his fists in the air.Murray lost only one more game and closed out a 7-6 (10), 6-1, 3-6, 4-6, 6-1 victory after nearly four hours. It was 8:42 p.m. when they finished. Ivan Lendl even stifled a yawn in the players box as the world No. 2 came out to serve for the match.Im sure I played a few matches here and in Davis Cup where I would have been as fired up, Murray told a media conference. But today was definitely up there.After losing the fourth set from 4-2 up, Murray could have imploded with one of his tantrums, but instead he brought the crowd back into the match.Its important to try to use the crowd, if you can, to your advantage, because they do make a difference, he said. In long matches, tough matches, even if its half a percent difference, its good.I try to get the crowd into it as much as I can when Im playing a home tournament.That was no easy task, given the amount of energy the crowd expended during Wednesdays first match on Centre Court. Those who paid for a ticket certainly got their moneys worth, having earlier seen Roger Federer escape from two sets down for an epic comeback win against Marin Cilic.When you get out there, its up to you to create an atmosphere a little bit, Murray said. Its totally understandable thats going to be the case after a match like that. That was a great match. The crowd were unbelievable today. They got two pretty good matches, as well, I think.Murray has been full of positive energy since reuniting with Lendl on the eve of Queens, and this was a 10th successive win for their rekindled partnership.Its beneficial having him [there, foor sure, because I trust him, have a lot of confidence in him, Murray said of Lendl. Shaq Thompson Jersey. He can help when Im on the court a little bit, just his presence. Might be a small amount, but like I said, every little bit helps.The prematch stuff, the work that you do in preparation for the matches, is where you get the big benefit. When this tournaments finished, the sort of training weeks are really where I think you get the biggest benefit. Hopefully, Ill have a few of them between now and the end of the year.The presence of Lendl could add some spice to Fridays semifinal. Murrays opponent, Tomas Berdych, approached Lendl about a potential coaching role after he had split with the Scot the first time around in 2014.Berdych, who defeated?Lucas Pouille?in the quarterfinals, said Lendl had told him he doesnt have the time and he [doesnt] want to be involved in tennis, but then went on to reunite with Murray.So thats how it is. I mean, its another opponent for me, he said of Murray. [Im] just going to try to focus on my next match.Is it frustrating for him to see Lendl in Murrays corner?No, absolutely not, Berdych said.Murray had been marching through these championships with almost zen-like serenity before his quarterfinal against Tsonga and hadnt dropped a set or lost his serve.If he needed a jolt to get himself ready for a potential final against Federer -- and he talked before the match about the benefits of an adrenaline charge -- then the five-set win over Tsonga was a valuable outing.I was definitely tested a lot today, he said. That was a really hard match to come through. It can give you a bit of confidence. It can help to go through games and stages in matches that are challenging.If youre in that position in the next couple of matches, you know youve been there. So Im hoping it helps me the next couple of rounds.
