Italian great Valentino Rossi has 111.Marquez, 23, is chasing his third MotoGP title. http://www.nflcardinalsrookiestore.com/ . -- San Francisco 49ers linebacker Ahmad Brooks was fined $15,570 by the NFL on Wednesday for his hit on Saints quarterback Drew Brees last Sunday. http://www.nflcardinalsrookiestore.com/Cardinals-Robert-Nkemdiche-Jersey/ . Vokoun departed practice on Saturday morning after discovering swelling in his thigh. He was taken to a local hospital where the clot was revealed.

CINCINNATI -- The Cincinnati Reds didnt exactly overpower the Milwaukee Brewers on Monday. They didnt have to with the pitching they got.Scott Schebler hit a two-run single in Cincinnatis three-run first inning and four pitchers teamed up on the Reds eighth shutout of the season in a 3-0 victory over Milwaukee.Keyvius Sampson started and Blake Wood (6-3), Michael Lorenzen and Raisel Iglesias followed as the Reds posted their seventh shutout since the All-Star break. They went into the game tied with the Cubs, Angels and Marlins for the most second-half shutouts in the majors.Iglesias pitched the final two innings for his third save in four opportunities as the Reds extended their winning streak to four games.Combined with their 8-0 win on Sunday at Pittsburgh, the Reds have back-to-back shutouts for the first time since winning 4-0 and 1-0 at St. Louis on July 28-29 of last season.Im happy for the guys that have been here the bulk of the season, manager Bryan Price said. Early in the season, when we were struggling, we asked guys to take on roles they werent prepared for. We plugged in pitchers that werent ready to be here. We went through a lot of growing pains. Its nice to have some of the guys that tasted real struggles bounce back and see success for the work they put in on their craft.The Brewers, who had hit at least one home run in nine consecutive games, have lost three of their last four and were shut out for the eighth time this season.The Reds sent eight batters to the plate in the first against Wily Peralta (6-10). They collected a walk and four hits, including back-to-back infield hits to shortstop Jonathan Villar by Adam Duvall and Brandon Phillips that loaded the bases, setting up Scheblers two-run single. Tyler Holt followed with an RBI single.It was a little frustrating, Peralta said. I made the pitches I wanted to make. I got ground balls. They just found some holes. They didnt hit anything hard.Manager Craig Counsell had no complaints about his veteran right-hander.Wily pitched very well tonight, Counsell said. He continued what hes been doing. We didnt have much luck tonight.Sampson, making his second start of the season as the Reds skipped Anthony DeSclafani, tied his career high with seven strikeouts. But he was relieeved by Wood in the fifth with the bases loaded and two outs -- not long enough to qualify for the win. http://www.nflcardinalsrookiestore.com/Cardinals-Haason-Reddick-Jersey/. He allowed four hits and two walks and hit a batter.Sampson was disappointed about not qualifying for the win, but pleased with his overall effort.This was pretty good, he said. I hate having two walks, but they happen. Honestly, I just wanted to give the team everything I had. I tried to keep them in the game.Wood stifled the threat by getting Hernan Perez to fly out.With the bases loaded and Perez coming in, another guy having a nice year, it was time for Woody to come in and clean it up, Price said.Peralta rebounded after Holts single to retire the next 15 batters before Phillips dribbler hugged the third base line for an infield single with two outs in the sixth inning. Peralta allowed six hits and three runs with one walk and five strikeouts in six innings.TRICKYReds 2B Brandon Phillips tried to catch the Brewers and the umpires napping, catching and then dropping Peraltas soft liner with Martin Maldonado on first base and nobody out in the third inning. Second base umpire Roberto Ortiz immediately ruled the ball was caught and Maldonado still was safe at first.HIGHLIGHT REELThe Reds used two right fielders and both made eye-catching plays. Schebler made a diving catch of Perezs blooper to end the first, then Steve Selsky easily threw out Jonathan Villar trying to score from second Scooter Gennetts two-out single in the sixth.TRAINERS ROOMBrewers: Rookie SS Orlando Arcia got Monday off after playing in 37 of Milwaukees 39 games since making his major league debut on Aug. 2.Reds: SS Jose Peraza returned to the starting lineup after missing Sundays game in Pittsburgh with a sore right pinky finger, the result of fouling a ball off of it on Saturday.UP NEXTBrewers: RHP Matt Garza (5-6), who allowed just three hits and one run over six innings without getting a decision in Milwaukees 2-1 victory over the Cubs last Wednesday, starts on Tuesday.Reds: RHP Dan Straily (11-8), who set his single-season career high for losses in his last start, tries to improve to 8-2 since the All-Star break on Tuesday.

Haseeb Hameeds short-term prognosis appeared uncertain when he did not open the batting in Englands second innings in Mohali, due to a finger injury which will be x-rayed after the Test ends. Zach Strief Jersey .Hameed did not field throughout Indias 138.2-over first innings but, because the injury to the little finger on his left hand was classed as an external blow, he would have been allowed to open.During the first part of the third day Hameed had undergone numerous net sessions to test the finger but when England began their second innings after tea it was Joe Root who opened with Alastair Cook. Although another change to Englands opening combination, it was not a new one: Root and Cook opened throughout the 2013 Ashes.Hameed had enjoyed an impressive start to his Test career after having been overlooked for the two Tests in Bangladesh. He made 82 in the second innings of his Test debut in Rajkot and resisted for 144 balls in the second innings in Vizag.If Hameeds injury makes him a doubt for the Mumbai Test, which starts on December 8, England may need to consider calling up another batsman to the squad. They have Ben Duckett, who opened in Bangladesh, but he was dropped for Mohali in favour of Jos Buttler, having made 18 runs in three innings during the first two Tests.Nick Gubbins, the Middlesex left-hander, or Durhams Keaton Jennings would be candidates as opening batsmen in county cricket while Essexs Tom Westley could be another option. A left-field choice, to try and counter Indias spinners, would be Sam Billings, the Kent wicketkeeper-batsman who has played ODI and T20 cricket and is renowned as an excellent player of spin. However, that route would still require looking for another opening solution. Tommylee Lewis Jersey .

TEMPE, Ariz. http://www.bengalsrookiestore.com/Bengals-Ryan-Hewitt-Jersey/ . -- Arizona State would seemingly have the perfect opponent to open a season full of questions.Northern Arizona plays in the lower-tier FCS, hasnt beaten Arizona State since 1938 and doesnt have the size or depth to match the Sun Devils.Yet as he leads his team into Saturdays game at Sun Devil Stadium, Arizona State coach Todd Graham is not taking anything for granted. The Lumberjacks can play and he knows it.We have studied them well and we know their coaching staff. They are well-coached and they have talent, Graham said. We have a lot of respect for their team and their level of play, and we know they are going to be highly motivated and confident come Saturday.Arizona State had a disappointing 2015 season, finishing 6-7 after being picked as a dark horse College Football Playoff team early in the season.The Sun Devils return this season with a quarterback battle between players who have never thrown a pass in college, along with questions on the offensive line and defensive secondary.Northern Arizona could present a difficult challenge despite playing the little brother to the two FBS programs in Arizona.The Lumberjacks opened the season ranked 18th in the two major FCS preseason polls and were picked to win the Big Sky Conference. They have an explosive offense that includes a quarterback and a receiver who received All-American recognition last season, which could cause some problems for an Arizona State defense that ranked last nationally in pass defense a year ago.They are going to catch some passes and theyre going to have some plays because they are very talented, Graham said.A few things to look for when Arizona State and Northern Arizona open the season Saturday night:WHOS THE QB?: Between Taylor Kelly and Mike Bercovici last season, Graham has known who his starting quarterback would be in every season except his first (2012) in the desert. This season, Arizona State joins Tulane as the only FBS programs to not have a quarterback on its roster who has thrown a collegiate pass. Sophomore Manny Wilkins and redshirt freshman Brady White had battled for the spot since spring before Graham told a local radio station on Friday that Wilkins will start against the Lumberjacks. Graham added that the QB competition is not over, so White could see some playing time Saturday and beyond.COOKUS RETURNS: While Arizona State has questions at quarterback, NAU certainly does not. Case Cookus had a stellar freshman season, throwing for 3,117 yards and 37 touchdowns while completing 69 percent of his passes. He was named the FCS national freshman of the year last season, a third-team All-American and has one of the nations best receivers to throw to, FCS All-American Emmanuel Butler. Against a revamped ASU secondary, there could be a few big plays Saturday night.POWER AND SPEED: Arizona States inexperience at quarterback will be offset by one of the best and most experienced backfields in the Pac-12. Juniors Demario Richard and Kalen Ballage give the Sun Devils a mix of power and speed that will make it difficult for the Lumberjacks -- or anyone else -- to stop. At 5-foot-10, 219 pounds, Richard goes through would-be tacklers like a bowling ball. The 6-2, 227-pound Ballage has the power to run opponents over, but also is one of the fastest players on the team.NUMBERS: Arizona State leads the all-time series 21-14-4 and has won the last nine meetings since a 13-13 tie in 1946. ... Northern Arizona coach Jerome Souers is entering his 19th season with the Lumberjacks. ... Arizona State K Zane Gonzalez enters the season needing 16 field goals to break the FBS record of 88 set by Florida States Dustin Hopkins. http://www.bengalsrookiestore.com/Bengals-Nick-Vigil-Jersey/ .

Howard Ganz, an MLB lawyer, said in a letter to U.S. District Judge Edgardo Ramos that Rodriguezs claims do not come "remotely close" to what is needed to overturn an arbitration decision in federal court. Last week at Kentucky, we were back with 1.5-mile track racing, and we were back with a familiar theme of the season, trust the pole-sitter.While Kevin Harvick may not have ended up getting the win, he led a race-high 128 laps (somebody has now led more than 100 laps in all six Kentucky races all-time), and finished with a race-best 81 points.Martin Truex Jr., one of my drivers to consider, like Harvick, couldnt stretch the fuel mileage, but finished up with a race-high 69 fastest laps led (to go along with his 46 laps led) for 77 points.My top pick for the week, Kyle Busch, didnt follow through with a third Kentucky win, but did put up 38.5 points on the day.The other theme for the day was drivers such as Joey Logano, Jimmie Johnson and Ryan Blaney all getting into trouble on the slick track. If all six of your drivers avoided trouble, you probably had a good day just by avoiding calamity.That mayhem also gave us some unusual drivers getting good finishes if you dipped into the bargain basement bin, such as Cole Whitt (21st for 38 points), Josh Wise (24th for 36 points) and Michael Annett (26th for 31.5 points). But you cant count on that sort of performance every week.This week, we head to New Hampshire, a fairly flat track measuring just over a mile. It might be over a mile, but I liken it more closely to the short tracks Martinsville or Richmond, or a better comparison might be Phoenix.There are laps led to be had at this track. The race goes 301 laps, and the trends there to watch are drivers finishing up front also starting up front; and the driver dominating in laps led recently hasnt gone on to win. But they dont need to win! They cant take those laps led points away!Last fall, Kevin Harvick led 216 laps and finished 21st, but still had 104.5 points. In the first race, Brad Keselowski led 100 laps and finished second for 106 points. The race before that, it was Harvick again leading 104 laps, finishing third, but still giving 87.5 points.So, what does this mean for this race? Here are my picks to get you started for the week. But check back again after qualifying for my final picks and fades for the week.Im starting my team with:There are two drivers I love at this point in the lead. The top spot goes to Kevin Harvick. His run of excellence at the track doesnt ggo back quite as far as No. http://www.bengalsrookiestore.com/Bengals-Aj-Green-Jersey/. 2 on this list (just wait, hes right under this entry), but the recent numbers have been the best.Even with his drop-off to 21st in the last race there, his in-race domination has given him averages of 94.9 DraftKings points, 63.3 fastest laps and 126.3 laps led per race, all the race in the field. Given that he seemed to have one of the best cars on the track last week, and Im going to start my team here.Keep an eye on these four:Brad Keselowski: Hes right behind Harvick on my list early in the week. Harvick took the majority of laps led in the last race, but Keselowski led 100, 78 and 138 laps in the three races before that. Plus hes put up more than 20 fastest laps in six straight New Hampshire races. Going back to the start of 2013, his 76.5 DraftKings points average is more than 16 more than any other driver.Kyle Larson: Larson had one of the fastest cars in practice last week at Kentucky, but pit strategy let him down at the end. This week, Im thinking he can perform closer to his 2014 numbers at the track (top-three finishes in both races and more than 50 DraftKings points) instead of 2015 (17th and 31st and eight points per race). Hes had a top-15 finish in all three races on short, flat tracks this season.Austin Dillon: Dillon is a whole new driver this season, but hes always put up decent numbers at New Hampshire. Im tying his performance to qualifying. In three of his four starts at the track, he started 22nd or worse and finished 14th or better. In those three, hes averaging more than 45 points per race. Take him if hes starting mid-pack or worse.Ryan Newman: Newman might not be mega-low value, but he usually finds himself at the front of the field here and will come at a modest price. Last year, he was 10th and 11th in the two New Hampshire races. Im hoping he pulls off the qualifying/race combo that he did in the last two summer races here. Last year, he started 26th and finished 11th. The year before, he started 24th and finished fifth.Thats all I have for you this week. Sounds like the perfect time to go get a New England lobster roll. Butter only, no mayo. Mayo has no place on lobster.

Lawrence Thomas knows he will feature in every highlights reel for this A-League season for the wrong reason. http://www.saintsrookiestore.com/Saints-Manti-Teo-Jersey/ .The Melbourne Victory goalkeeper is the one watching and then diving in vain as Tim Cahills 40-metre rocket scorched past him and into the net in this seasons first Melbourne derby.Its a great finish, Thomas told AAP, underplaying the strike just a touch.It was perhaps the A-Leagues best ever goal.The stunning moment had Melbourne City fans screaming, Victory fans speechless, and Thomas himself sprawled on the grass.But the mature 24-year-old gloveman has already accepted it as the goalkeepers lot.And theres no way hell be retreating from his advanced position as a sweeper-keeper when Cahill or any other forward is on the ball, 40 metres from goal.If I cop one of those a season Ill take that on the chin, he said.Nonetheless Ill continue to be in that position.I cut out a lot more balls coming through than I do conceding goals from that position and the ones I cut out are one-on-one chances.While Thomas conceded four on that October night, itd be hard to pin blame for any of them at his feet.And since then, Thomas has formed part of one of the meanest A-League defences.Victory has conceded just five goals in seven games - and one in the last month - to surge to third on the A-League table.Thomas - who was in goal for Victorys 2015 grand final win - said he was feeling confident after starting an A-League season as Victorys first-choice gloveman.I feel like Im having a solid season. Thats the greatest thing about getting a regular league spot, you get a chance weekly to perform, he said.I look back at the goals I have conceded and quite a few of them have been great finishes.Im not happy to concede. I never want to get beaten.But if youre covering certain areas of the goal and people are beating you by off the post and in or top corners, then yknow.A win over City would have Kevin Muscats side in second place with that catch-up game against Wellington Phoenix to come.Thomas said he believed Victorys early-season inconsistency had been banished and a derby day success would cement their resurgence.One week we looked fantastic and the next we didnt turn up, he said.But the last patch of five, six, seven games has been very solid. The inconsistency is gone and were in decent form.Its a massive game and especially for the fans.Coming into Christmas, we have a massive responsibility to send fans home happy. http://www.saintsrookiestore.com/Saints-Terron-Armstead-Jersey/ .

The (11-11-4) Jets are seventh in the Central Division with 26 points.  Fifth place Dallas and sixth-seeded Nashville also have 26 points, but the Stars have three games in hand on Winnipeg while Nashville has two.INDIANAPOLIS -- A born and bred Hoosier, Ryan Newman spent his childhood racing everywhere from Anderson to Winchester and every short track he could find in a state mad about racing. He graduated from Purdue and landed a summer job working in Jeff Gordons old race shop in Pittsboro. One of the perks? He got to live in the shop and sleep alongside the cars. And like many Indiana kids, he revered Indianapolis Motor Speedway, the track he first visited in 1986 and later accidentally stumbled upon NASCARs inaugural 1992 test while out buying tires with his mother. A win at the famed Brickyard? That would be a dream come true for the South Bend native. Newman made the boyhood dream a cool reality, taking the checkered flag Sunday to end a 49-race winless streak in front of his home state fans. His parents, who fueled his love of racing and took him to the 500 as a kid, joined him for his biggest win in Indiana. Newman was as cool and collected in Victory Lane as he was on the track when he held off Jimmie Johnson. There were no tears, no quiver in his voice and no need to collect himself as Newman was strangely stoic. "I dont show a lot of emotion, I think everybody knows that," said Newman, who likened the victory to his 2008 win at the Daytona 500. "I had the same emotion, the same thankfulness I did when I won the Daytona 500 because I feel everybody that has been a part of my racing career -- from people that bought my racing uniform, bought me a right rear tire, given us a credit card to get to some race track at some point in my career -- those are the people that helped me get to where I am today. "To me, its awesome to be here at Indy. Its awesome because its my home state. Ive raced go karts at pretty much every go kart track around here, been kicked out of half of them. Those are the things that make it special. I think about those things more than I carry the emotion on my cheeks." So the emotion was seen in father Greg, who spotted for Newman on Sunday, and his mother, Diane. Newman kept it together during his celebratory burnout and the drive to Victory Lane, a hallowed area that he twice had to ask his crew over the radio for directions how to get there. He took the customary ride in a convertible around the track with his wife and two young daughters, and happily bowed again and again to kiss the Yard of Bricks. Sure, he smiled, and shared some tender hugs with one of his daughters. But that was the most anyone was getting out of Newman, who had admitted to getting emotional after winning the pole on Saturday but seemed almost numb following Sundays win. "Im not sure (how I feel) at this point. I know its an amazing feeling," he said. "I was more emotional yesterday after winning the pole than I was two laps after doing my donuts and everything else today. Im not sure why. I took an emotional hit yesterday. Just an awesome day." Newman beat Johnson twice on this Brickyard weekend, first when he set a NASCAR track record in knocking Johnson off the pole in qualifying, then Sunday with a fast final pit stop to snatch the win from the four-time Indianapolis winner. The two were the class of the field -- they combined to lead 118 of the 160 laps -- but it was Johnson who dominated the race and appeared to be just a bit better. But Johnson pitted from the lead with 27 laps remaining and it was a slow final stop for the Hendrick Motorsports crew. Newman pitted after that and took only two tires to move into the lead after the green-flag stops cycled through the field. The closest Johnson would get to him again was when he paid a congratulatory visit to Newman in Victory Lane. The victory comes as Newman is lookinng for a job. http://www.saintsrookiestore.com/Saints-Ryan-Ramczyk-Jersey/. Stewart-Haas Racing has signed Kevin Harvick to join the team next season, and team co-owner Tony Stewart informed Newman two weeks ago he wont be brought back in 2014. It didnt change the post-race mood, as Stewart hustled to Victory Lane, lifted Newman from behind and the two shared a long embrace. "He just had an awesome weekend," Stewart said. "I kept looking up the board and watching and I was scared to ask where he was at and how big of a lead he had. I didnt want to jinx him. Just really proud of him -- hes a great teammate and an even better friend." Johnson, the Sprint Cup Series points leader who was hoping to tie Formula Ones Michael Schumacher as the only five-time winners in Indy history, finished 2.657 seconds behind Newman in second. "Theres definitely disappointment there, but thats racing. It happens," Johnson said. "We win as a team, lose as a team. Theres been some late race mistakes on my behalf that have taken race wins away from us. Granted, not a major event like this. We still ended up second. "We have a lot to be proud of over the course of the weekend. Well do the best to let it roll off our shoulders by tomorrow afternoon." Kasey Kahne, Johnsons Hendrick Motorsports teammate, was third and Stewart was fourth as Chevrolet swept the top four spots. All four cars were also powered by Hendrick Motorsports. "We had pretty good power all day long. There were a lot of scenarios where I noticed how good it was," Stewart said. "Thats what you expect out of the Hendrick engine department. Thats the standard that they set." Matt Kenseth was fifth in a Toyota and followed by Hendricks Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Jeff Gordon, as all four Hendrick entries landed inside the top seven. Earnhardt rallied from a loose wheel on the opening run of the race to grab his top-10 finish. "I knew it was loose," said Earnhardt, adding it was a no-brainer to pit. "You have a wheel falling off, you have something serious happening. Come in, its dangerous staying out there. You can hit the wall, or wreck something, or wreck some other people. I dont want to do that. It is a long race. We had an early chance to fix that, and that is fine. It gave us an opportunity to try some different strategies, and it worked out for us." Joey Logano was eighth in a Ford, and followed by Juan Pablo Montoya and Kyle Busch, who picked up his first career win at the Brickyard in Saturdays Nationwide Series race. NASCARs 20th running at the historic Brickyard wasnt the most exciting race -- there were three cautions, for stalled cars or debris, and no accidents or spins -- and the field spread out into single-file racing and passing wasnt easy. Montoya complained at one point over his radio that attempting to pass another car only cost him position on track. "Its just Indy, its always hard to pass," Kahne shrugged. "The competitions close, so you can get runs and then you can kill your run a little bit if that guy runs a certain part of the race track. So the guys that know where to put their car when a car being them is faster, its tough to pass them." The in-race intrigue came via varied strategies among the teams as they all tried different methods to steal a good finish in a race that logged as the fastest Brickyard in history at 2 hours, 36 minutes and 22 seconds. "Overall I thought it was an exciting race," said Kenseth. "I thought there was a lot of different strategies there at the end and the two fastest cars ended up battling for the win. It wasnt any harder (to pass) than normal. Its just always hard to pass here."

ATLANTA -- Chicago Bulls guard Dwyane Wade says he hasnt spoken to Heat president Pat Riley since last season ended. Site De Chaussure Air Max Pas Cher .Wade played in Miami for 13 seasons before signing a two-year deal with the Bulls over the summer, which includes a player option. He makes his first return to the AmericanAirlines Arena as a visitor on Thursday as the Bulls face the Heat.I think you guys know, I havent talked to him, Wade said Wednesday. Its as simple as that. I think Ive been very open and honest about my respect and love with Pat. Ive been honest that I havent spoken to him since the season ended.The general thought throughout the league last summer was that Wade would re-sign with the Heat and ultimately end his career in Miami. After contract talks broke down, Wade decided to sign with the Bulls. The 34-year-old said he has communicated with everyone else in the organization besides Riley.I know who Pat is, Wade said. Its no secret to me. I was there 13 years, Ive seen a lot of players come and go. I know how he is. If youre not with him, youre against him. Thats just the way he is. You got to understand that, man. And Im cool with it. Im fine, 100 percent. I was there 13 years so Ive seen a lot of video tributes, seen a lot of players come in and go out. And Ive seen the way hes responded to them. And I know if youre not with him, youre against him.Wade said he wasnt sure whether he would speak to Riley before the highly anticipated game Thursday.I dont know, Wade said. I plan on playing tonight [against the Atlanta Hawks], focus on this game. And then Ill worry about tomorrow at 8 oclock.Wade isnt sure how hell feel when the Heat play an expected video tribute, as they have for other players who have returned after signing elsewhere.I dont know, Wade said. Ive only experienced it from clapping for other guys who came back. Ive always been appreciative of the guys who came back and the tributes they got. I have no idea.LeBron James was very emotional when he saw his tribute, and Mario Chalmers -- the starting point guard on Miamis 2012 and 2013 title teams -- said he was moved by what the Heat did to commemorate his return after a trade to Memphis last year.Its going to be very emotional, that I can say, Chalmers said. With me coming back, I had mixed feelings. The fans welcomed me back, everybody at the arena welcomed me back, but I still had a sour taste in my mouth from how the trade went down ... and Im pretty sure D-Wades going to feel the same way.Wade has remained extremely close with?Udonis Haslem, with whom he shared captaincy in Miami for many years. Hes been in regular contact with Heat coach Erik Spoelstra and continues checking in on some of his former teammates as well.Itll probably be emotional for me, Spoelstra said Wednesday. And then well get to competition, and thats ultimately what its all about.Bulls forward Taj Gibson said Tuesday that Wade has been telling teammates they better be ready to play on Thursday, the second night of a back-to-back and the Bulls third game in four nights.I would love if [the game] wasnt on a back-to-back, Wade said with a smile. I would love if I was able to have a day so I can enjoy my house. Im going to go sleep in my bed for about three hours -- I would love it a lot more. But Im going to take advantage of the moments Im there ... and go out and compete in an arena that I played for 13 years, an environment that Im used to. So its going to be fun from that aspect, but I would love it if the schedule gods would have looked at it a little better and not gave us this on a back-to-back.Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.

Hes also the oldest member of his position group and its unquestioned leader.Naturally guys grow into that role and he embraced that role as far as a leader, mentoring the young guys, coach Chuck Pagano said. But really it was by his actions and being here and being present, working his tail off and playing at a really high speed and high level.Hilton had no choice but to grow up fast.He leaned on perennial Pro Bowler Reggie Wayne for three seasons, only to watch him go after the 2014 season. Andre Johnson filled that role last season. Though Hilton clearly outplayed Johnson, inside the locker room the 34-year-old veteran still provided perspective and advice to his younger teammates.When Johnson was cut in March, Hilton inherited his new job as the sage of the receivers meeting room.Its different, Hilton said. But Reggie helped prepare me for it, so I relish the moment.Coaches and teammates have already detected a difference.During the offseason workouts and three-day minicamp, they raved about Hiltons progression. Pagano believes its the best offseason Hiltons had as a pro.Me and T.Y. had that talk about being the veteran guys in the room and what we have to do and how we have to set the tone every day and keep the younger guys going, third-year receiver Donte Moncrief said. Thats the big thing for us, is just keeping the young guys going and keeping their head on right.For Hilton, its a crucial season.After a solid rookie year, Hilton took off. He caught 82 passes in 2013 and 2014 and topped the 1,000-yard mark both seasons. But perhaps no Indy player -- other than Andrew Luck -- faced a more rugged time in 2015 than Hilton.With Wayne gone, Johnson struggling and the Colts unable to run the ball consistently, Hilton became the focal point of everyones defensive game plans even beforee Luck got hurt. Air Max Pas Cher Livraison Rapide. Luck missed nine games with injuries, handing the reins to 40-year-old Matt Hasselbeck, who emphasized the short passing game behind the Colts leaky offensive line.The result: Hilton had to adapt to a new game and a new philosophy that didnt emphasize his deep speed. For the first time his numbers regressed. Hilton finished with 69 catches, 1,124 yards and five touchdowns -- still good enough to make his second straight Pro Bowl.Now that Luck is back at full health, Hilton intends to use his knowledge and skills to become a steadier force in the Colts offense.Hes made a bunch of plays, we all know that, Pagano said. But now its taking the next step.The best news is that Hilton may be working with a better supporting cast.Moncrief made 10 starts and caught 64 passes last year, emerging as a solid No. 2 receiver. Speedy Phillip Dorsett, Indys first-round pick in 2015, is expected to make a bigger impact after playing a minor role early last season and suffering a fractured lower left leg. This year, hes ready to go.The Colts are still looking for help beyond those three.At least they know one thing is certain -- Hilton is the willing and able leader of the pack.Im just approaching it like Im a rookie, just making sure Im writing everything down so when the young guys ask me what theyve got, I know I can help them, Hilton said. I just want to continue getting better and help my guys out in the room.Game notes Its unclear how much -- or if -- Luck will play against Green Bay. Pagano said joking that he might wake up Sunday and make a decision then. ... Pagano said starting center Ryan Kelly (left shoulder) will not play Sunday. ... Starting defensive end Kendall Langford missed Fridays practice with an undisclosed injury. Pagano said Langford was being evaluated by doctors and trainers.---Online: http://pro32.ap.org/poll and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL Wholesale NFL Jerseys Wholesale Nike NFL Jerseys NFL Jerseys From China Cheap Nike Basketball Jerseys Wholesale Hockey Jerseys China Nike Baseball Jerseys Cheap College Jerseys China Cheap Football Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys Canada Wholesale NHL Jerseys Canada Wholesale Nike MLB Jerseys Canada Cheap NBA Jerseys Authentic Canada Stitched Soccer Jerseys Canada Cheap Jerseys Canada NFL ' ' ' 

With James Taylor forced to retire due to a heart condition and Nick Compton solid rather than spectacular in South Africa this winter, spots are up for grabs in Englands middle order. Cheap Air Max 2018 . So just where might the selectors be looking ahead of the first Test against Sri Lanka at Headingley, live on Sky Sports 2 from 10am on Thursday, May 19?Whether the decision-makers want wise old heads or fresh faces, there are a fair few options… Ian Bell Michael Atherton makes the case for Ian Bell to re-join the England test side for the series against Sri Lanka When left out of Englands tour of South Africa, many wondered whether it might be the end of the 34-year-olds Test career, especially as hed pondered his retirement from international cricket following Englands most recent Ashes triumph, the fifth of his career. What else is there for him to achieve?But with the sad news of Taylors enforced exit, suddenly there is a spot open for Bell and he is hungry to fill it, scoring 174 in Warwickshires opening County Championship game of the season against Hampshire. Also, lest we forget, Bell loves batting at five! In the 60 of his 205 Test innings he has batted there, Bell has hit nine of his 22 hundreds - his average of 48.25 bettering his career 42.69.Gary Ballance Ballance and Joe Root could be reunited in Englands middle order Potentially the next cab off the rank is Ballance, who played understudy as the spare batsman for the tour of South Africa. Dropped mid-Ashes last year when struggling to perfect a top-order technique batting at three, a move lower down the order could see him feel considerably more comfortable.Plus, Ballance hardly failed too greatly in his early efforts in Test cricket, scoring 1,194 runs in his first 15 Tests at an average of 47.76, so he would argue he deserves another shot. It could come at five, or perhaps England look to plug him in again at three, with doubts remaining over Compton, a man yet to get going this season.James Vince Nick Knight has called for England to pick Hampshires James Vince at three for the first Test against Sri Lanka Vince is another potential floating option should England choose for a greater middle-order shake-up. Long earmarked for Test success, the 25-year-old is a regular in Englands white-ball squads. Squads being the optimum word, as Vinces role has mainly been that of chief benchwarmer, with just four T20I - albeit impressive - performances to his name, and one rained off ODI against Ireland last summer.While its obvious the management like having him around the set-up, the main hindrance to Test recognition was seemingly a poor 2015 in the County Championship for Hampshire, Vince averaging only 28.58 as he struggled with the step-up from Division Two. But he has started well this year, striking a vital 119 against the reigning county champions no less, having come to the crease with his side 9-1 following Yorkshires mammoth 593-9 declared.Jonny Bairstow Could England pick Jonny Bairstow and Jos Buttler? Bairstow smashed a first-class career-best 246 in that Yorkshire innings, before smiting 198 against Surrey on Monday. Moving the wicketkeeper-batsman back up to five in the order would free up space for England to bring back Jos Buttler at seven. It would also mean that Bairstow - who had a tricky time of it behind the stumps in South Africa - can give up the gloves and focus solely on batting.It may be that Buttler is still absent from the side for the first Test against Sri Lanka, what with his IPL commitments for Mumbai Indians, but England could still choose to relieve Bairstow of the gloves and perhaps give an opportunity to talented keeper-batsmen like Adam Wheater of Hampshire or Surreys Ben Foakes.Jason Roy Surreys Jason Roy starred for England at the World T20 His place in Englands white-ball sides seemed under threat after a poor series in South Africa with just a combined 120 runs over seven ODI and T20I innings at the top of the order, but he bounced back emphatically at the World T20. Roy smashed 183 runs in six innings, at a strike-rate of 148.78, producing three particularly vital knocks to help England navigate their way to the final.Roy hit 43 off 16 balls in the record run-chase against South Africa, 43 off 39 against Sri Lanka to help book a semi-final spot, and then 78 off 44 in that semi win over New Zealand. His opportunity in Test cricket could come far sooner than expected. Trevor Bayliss is a big fan, and first division cricket this year batting at five for Surrey could be enough to persuade him to plump for Roy. Who would YOU pick in Englands middle order?

Clippards deal Monday means all eight Nationals players who filed for arbitration wound up settling before a hearing. http://www.airmax2018womens.us/ .ca NBA Power Rankings, ahead of the Miami Heat and San Antonio Spurs. TORONTO -- One guy has more points over the past five seasons combined than any player in the NHL -- more than Sidney Crosby, Patrick Kane or Alex Ovechkin over that span. The other guy tied the all-time single-season record for wins last season en route to a Vezina Trophy. The third has a Stanley Cup ring and was second only to Drew Doughty as a minutes-eater on his NHL club last season.There they were Wednesday afternoon at Air Canada Centre, Claude Giroux, Braden Holtby and Jake Muzzin?-- representing a combined?$20 million in NHL salaries for the upcoming season -- getting in a skate on a day when the rest of Team Canadas lineup stayed off the ice on the eve of Game 2 of the World Cup of Hockey finals.It is testimony, of course, to Team Canadas mind-blowing depth of talent that it can romp through this event without making those three guys regular members of the lineup.Just as important, though, is how these star players have accepted their situation. Of course, it kills them not to play. Theyre born competitors.But theyre also cognizant of the need to put Team Canada first, and so they have.Obviously we all want to play, Giroux said Wednesday. Thats just in our blood. And we just want to see Team Canada win.Having just missed out on being picked for Canadas 2014 Sochi Olympic team, Giroux was absolutely jacked when he got the call this time around. During the teams pre-tournament camp in Ottawa you could practically see his eyes glow with excitement at the prospect of finally getting his shot.The experience has still been positive, but appearing in just one tournament game isnt exactly what he had hoped for at the start.You dream of playing for Team Canada when youre a kid, Giroux said. You must want to help your country win. Obviously you want to play. Everyone on this team has the attitude that they want to make a difference. They want to be out there to help the team win. Its tough. But Im learning a lot and having a lot of fun here.Both Giroux and Muzzin were original roster members but have since been passed over for playing time by late-replacement additions in Ryan OReilly and Jay Bouwmeester, respectively.But that again speaks to the remarkable depth and plethora of choices with which Team Canada head coach Mike Babcock is blessed.Obviously, you want to be out there. every guy wants to be out there, Muzzin said. But when youre a scratch on one of the best teams in the world, I mean, its an honor just to be here. Its a privilege to be here. You cant really be too angry. Yeah, I want to play and I want to show what I can do and play at this elite level and prove myself at this level, but at the same time our team is full of really, really good hockey players. Thats just how it is.Holtby feels it might have been a little tougher on Giroux and Muzzin because, as he says, there are more moving parts in the lineup with forwards and defensemen. But as one of the teams three goalies, he had a pretty good sense going in that Carey Price would be the starter.It waas probably easier for me because I was a little more prepared for it, Holtby said. Nike Air Max 95 Sale. Its been good. Its been a challenge in some ways, but its been fun.That Corey Crawford has been the backup ahead of Holtby was a mild surprise, just because of the Washington Capitals goalies standout 2015-16 season. But then again, when you consider Crawfords Stanley Cup experience with the Chicago Blackhawks, its kind of a toss-up.Its a pretty big honor just to be named to this team, Holtby said. Its pretty much an all-star team. Its pretty cool that way. I think youre just proud to represent your country. You dont really question it. But you definitely gain a new perspective of guys back on your (NHL) team that are struggling to get into the lineup. Its a tough spot.Giroux, the Philadelphia Flyers captain, echoed the sentiment of having a better appreciation for the players who vie for a lineup spot back home.It helps you understand what guys go through when theyre healthy scratches, Giroux said. Its not the most fun thing. You just got to grind it out and hope for your chance. But being part of this team has been a blast.Giroux is a victim of being on a team loaded with star centers, some of which are Olympic holdovers. Still, this July 17 tweet on NHL point leaders from ESPN NHL analytics guru Rob Vollman underscores Girouxs accomplishment the past half-decade: Its amazing that Giroux can be cast aside, but at the same time, its not all that shocking when you look at the names on the lineup.The talent thats here is pretty surreal, Giroux said. You can see every line is playing well right now -- how Canada finds a way to play a team game even when theres a lot of talent. A lot of guys that can take over a game. Everybody buys in, and its one of the reasons Canada has been successful.Muzzin has just tried to soak in as much as he can from this dressing room of full of leaders and superstars.Seeing the guys in here and how they prepare and seeing the different things that they do, I mean, you learn so much from different guys, said the?Los Angeles Kings?blueliner. And they learn things from you, it goes vice versa. You pick a coachs brain a little bit, you get a different view, you learn a lot. How can you not learn from this experience??A tough task for the three of them is trying to get as ready as possible for the NHL season which is just around the corner.Thats kind of been the challenge, right? Muzzin said.Its strange, because weve been playing hockey for longer, but were almost behind when we get back just because of the situation were in, Holtby said. But in preseason, its not like you play every game. Its a new challenge, but theres still enough time to get ready for the season.All three will go home with memories nonetheless.The whole experience has been great, just being around the guys has been fun, Giroux said.Only on Team Canada.

ALAMEDA, Calif. Nike Shox Cheap . -- The Oakland Raiders will have little time to prepare for their biggest game in 14 years.The Raiders (10-2) didnt get much of a chance to savor their sixth straight victory before turning their attention Monday to an AFC West showdown against the Chiefs (9-3) on Thursday night in Kansas City.Instead of taking their usual Monday off for the players, the Raiders were back on the practice field preparing for a rematch with the Chiefs that will play a big part in determining which team wins the division.Were going to be excited to play, coach Jack Del Rio said. Thats how were looking at it. Tough set of circumstances. We dont mind tough things, so were looking forward to the challenge.The Raiders have handled a number of schedule challenges already this season as they are off to their best start since 2000 and poised to end a 13-year playoff drought.They opened the season with three road games with early starts in the first four weeks and won all of them. They spent a week practicing in Florida between road games at Jacksonville and Tampa Bay and swept the trip. They bounced back from an overtime win over the Buccaneers to beat Denver the following week. They won a game in the high altitude at Mexico City and came back on a short week to beat a well-rested Carolina squad.Now comes the trip to Kansas City, where the Raiders will try to snap a four-game losing streak against the Chiefs, including a 26-10 loss at home in October.The physical part, just recovering and getting guys to do everything they can to get back to neutral and feel good, safety Nate Allen said when asked about the challenges of a short week. Even the mental part is big. Something youd have four or five days to study a team, you have two days. Everybody has to go over the top with everything preparing mentally and physically.With the Chiefs already winning once against Oakland, a second victory would give them a potential tiebreaker and mean the Raiders would need help to win the division. An Oakland win would give the Raiders a two-game lead in the AFC West with three remaining.Both teams head into the game on a roll, with the Raiders having won six in a row and the Chiefs taking seven of eight. Both have a penchant for coming from behind this season, with Oakland posting six fourth-quarter comebacks and Kansas City four.The good teams find a way to win and theyve done that as well, Del Rio said. Both teams know what it looks like to win. Should be a great game.Game notes DL Mario Edwards Jr. returned to practice for the first time since injuring his hip in the preseason opener. The Raiders have three weeks to decide whether to activate him from IR. ... S Karl Joseph (foot) is in a walking boot and missed practice but has not been ruled out for Thursday. ...

Louis Blues. Shane Hnidy joins Brian Munz for the broadcast on TSN 1290 Radio at 7pm ct.WOODBRIDGE, Va. -- Washington Nationals outfielder Bryce Harper made his first rehabilitation assignment Tuesday night for Single-A Potomac, going 1 -for 1 with a double, a walk, and a run scored. Last years National League Rookie of the Year batted second in the lineup and played three innings in left field before being pulled. Harper hadnt played since May 26 and was put on the disabled list June 2 with bursitis in his left knee. Entering Monday, Harper had missed 25 straight games and 31 of the first 75 this season for Washington. "He looks the same old Harp," said Potomac manager Brian Daubach who also had Harper in Hagerstown in 2011. After having the best record in the majors last season at 98-64, the Nationals have struggled without Harper and are 37-38. Harper wore a knee brace during warm-ups, but it wasnt visible during the game. In Harpers first at-bat he hit a pop-up into shallow left field that was dropped by Myrtle Beach shortstop Edwin Garcia. Harper showed no signs of the knee ailment as he raced around first base and into second for a stand-up double. "The double he hit was a blooper down the left field line and he was flying," said Daubach. "Its as good as Ive seen him run." Moments later Harper was picked off by Pelicans pitcher Blake Schwartz after taking a large lead and failing to slide back in time to beat the throw. "Hes aggressive," Daubach said. "When he got second, looking to take third in a situation with one out, all positive for me." In the third inning, Harper got a late start on Rougned Odors shot into left field. The left fielder recovered to make up ground but the ball bounced over the wall for a ground-rule double. Harpers second at-bat ended after seven pitches with a walk. "I know hes been out awhile, and as you see with most rehab guys, the more at-bats they get they get it back," Daubach said. " But to have the second at-bat be a long at bat and to lay off some good pitches was a good sign." The next batter, Jason Martinson, doubled Harper to third. Again Harpers knee looked fine as he raced around the bases so fast that his helmet couldnt keep up and flew off his head before reaching third. Harper wasnt at third base long as the next hitter, Adrian Nieto, singled him home. Harper, still the youngest player on the team, picked up Nietos bat before crouching down and cheering as Martinson slid home to even the game 3-3. Potomac defeated Myrtle Beach 7-5. Although admitting to not having the final say, Daubach answered that Harper playing six innings on Wednesday "sounds about right. Nike Shox Clearance. ." "After playing for the first time in a while, hopefully he comes back ready to go tomorrow," said Daubach. Harpers appearance with Potomac could be felt early on as long lines were visible outside the stadium as early as two hours before the first pitch. Harpers batting practice also caused quite a scene as more than 100 fans crowded around the cage, while others looked on from the top row of the first-base stands. Many in attendance wore Harpers jersey, while others took pictures trying to get a glimpse of the all-star. Kids chanted his name from atop their fathers necks and teenage girls gave him the rock star treatment by screaming as he was led by police officers back to the dugout after the session. It was the first sellout of the season for the Potomac Nationals. "On a Tuesday night it can get slow around here," Daubach said. "It wasnt the normal Tuesday night for us for sure." Manager Davey Johnson, speaking before Washingtons game against Arizona, said Harper likely wont rejoin the Nationals this weekend when they travel to New York. "I doubt if hell be able to make it that quick," Johnson said, pointing to a series starting next Monday in Washington against Milwaukee for Harpers likely return. "Hell probably do three or four innings tonight, and then, if theres no problem, gradually up it." Outfielder Jayson Werth, who left Sundays game with a strained left groin, was in the Nationals starting lineup against Arizona. The Nationals also placed pitcher Dan Haren on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to Sunday, with right shoulder inflammation. They also recalled first baseman-outfielder Tyler Moore from Triple-A Syracuse. Haren underwent an MRI exam Monday, which he said revealed no structural damage, and he received a cortisone shot. "Theres nothing surprising definitely," Haren said. "Obviously, there was a little bit of inflammation and stuff in there. I dont know if thats normal wear and tear, or maybe a little bit more than normal. I got a shot, which is the best way to take out all the stiffness and any inflammation thats in there." The 32-year-old right-hander said he could begin throwing again as early as Wednesday. Signed to one-year, $13 million contract in the off-season, Haren is 4-9 with a 6.15 ERA in 15 starts. On Saturday, he lasted just 3 1/3 innings, surrendering six runs on seven hits in a 7-1 loss to Colorado. Moore is batting .158 with five doubles, two home runs, 13 RBIs, and seven runs scored in 38 games this season with the Nationals.

British No. Stan Smith Pas Cher Chine . 4 Dan Evans hopes that his straight sets victory against world No. 40?Grigor Dimitrov on Wednesday will ensure his involvement in Great Britains Davis Cup bid.Victory over Dimitrov earned a place in the Citi Open third round for the world No. 82, who looks to climb even further up the world rankings.Evans missed the Davis Cup victory over Serbia with a shoulder injury, which led to him being replaced by James Ward, but he hopes to return for Septembers semifinal at home to Argentina with British No.1 and World No. 2?Andy Murray also expected to return.Speaking to The Times, he said: Its Leon Smiths [the Great Britain captain] decision, but Id love to play, especially with the next one being at home.It was a great effort against Serbia and its nice that the lads showed that its not just all about Andy.He will face either Lukas Lacko, the world No. 102 from Slovakia, or Jack Sock, the world No. 26 from the U.S in the last eight.Evans had three match points to secure victory at 5-2 in the second set, but Dimitrov saved all three before breaking the Britons serve and then holding his own.However, Evans kept his cool when serving for the match for a second time and won his fifth match point to secure the victory.Gaining ranking points remains top of Evanss priorities, which was the reason behind his recent decision to turn down an opportunity to compete at the Olympic Games in Rio.I know a lot of people think Im mad for not going to the Olympics, but it makes sense for me to get some points, he said.It was a tough decision, but now that Ive got there I need to stay in the top 100.Evans, 26, reached the third round at Wimbledon this summer, beating Alexandr Dolgopolov before losing in straight sets to Roger Federer, but suffered a shoulder injury in the process.Its strange. Nobody knows quite whats wrong, but its getting better, he said. I can still feel it, but I felt good [against Dimitrov] and hopefully it wont affect me anymore. Acheter Stan Smith Pas Cher . LOUIS -- Mike Smith is used to facing plenty of shots, so this was nothing new. Stan Smith Destockage . Halladay signed a one-day contract with the Toronto Blue Jays on Monday that allowed the veteran right-hander to retire as a member of team with which he broke into the majors and spent the bulk of his distinguished 16-year career. http://www.stansmithfrance.fr/ . Catch all the action on TSN2 at 11pm et/8pm pt. The nine-time Big 12 champion Jayhawks are positioning themselves for another title, as they have run out to a flawless 6-0 mark in conference play thus far. LOS ANGELES -- Harrison Barnes believes he still would be a member of the Golden State Warriors if they had won last seasons NBA championship.However, Barnes knew after his exit interview in the wake of the Warriors blowing a 3-1 lead in the NBA Finals to the Cleveland Cavaliers that he had likely played his final game for the franchise. He described his chances of returning to the Warriors at that point as slim to none, even though Golden State had the right to match any offer he received as a restricted free agent.There were a lot of emotions after a Game 7 loss, said Barnes, who will return to Oracle Arena as a visitor for the first time along with fellow former Warrior Andrew Bogut on Wednesday, when the Dallas Mavericks face Golden State. I think a lot of people were upset, frustrated. And we blew a 3-1 lead. So that was the mindset. I think we knew they were going to blow it up if we lost that series, which we did. I cant say I was surprised.Golden State management informed Barnes during that meeting they would have other priorities in free agency, essentially confirming seasonlong rumors that they planned to pursue Kevin Durant. The Warriors needed to let Barnes leave and move another significant salary in a trade to make room to give the superstar a maximum contract.It was difficult, man, Barnes said. Just because you go back and you watch Game 7 and youre like, Man, its two minutes away from planning a parade or Thank you for your services. It was a pretty big switch.At the end of the day, youve got to put that stuff to the side. I made the decision to go to Dallas. I dont really dwell on that and just move forward.The Mavs signed Barnes to a four-year, $94 million max contract, a move that was questioned by many, considering his pedestrian offensive numbers during his four seasons as a complementary player for the Warriors. He averaged 10.1 points per game during his Golden State stint, including a career-best scoring average of 11.7 points last season.But Barnes has quickly blossomed as a primary option with Dallas, which desperately needs him to be a prolific scorer, since?Dirk Nowitzki?is dealing with health issues. Barnes is averaging 22.3 points per game on 50.8 percent shooting. He already has more 30-plus-point performances for the Mavs (three) -- including consecutive games during the 2-5 Mavs modest winning streak -- than he did for the Warriors (one).Theres a lot more opportunity for me here, said Barnes, who had 31 points on 11 of 18 shooting in TTuesdays 109-97 win over the Los Angeles Lakers. Stan Smith Soldes. The offense is different. Obviously, Im not complaining about my role at Golden State, because we won a lot of games doing that. But in the same regard here, theres just more opportunities to do different things.I love it. As a player, you always want to know what you can do. At the end of your career, you can look back and say, look, I was able to get this much out of my playing career and I was able to become this type of player. I think thats what allows you to sleep well at night. Im getting a chance to see and experience and learn. Obviously, we had a rough start, some growing pains. But Im really looking forward to this situation.Barnes acknowledged that it made sense for the Warriors to pursue Durant, whose arrival gave Golden State three of the leagues most explosive scorers, as the 2013-14 MVP joined two-time MVP Stephen Curry and All-Star Klay Thompson.Bogut, who was traded to Dallas in a salary-dump deal, characterized it as an easy decision for Golden State general manager Bob Myers, despite the Warriors winning the 2014-15 title and setting an NBA regular-season record with 73 wins in 2015-16.Look, you get a chance to get one of the best players in the world, you jump at that chance, Bogut said. If Im the GM, you generally jump at that chance.Obviously, we had a lot of success with the group that we had. We understood our roles. We knew our strengths and our weaknesses each way -- individually and how we needed to lift each other up. But obviously, theyre looking to build for the future too. Theyre trying to build it for the next five or six years and not just the next one or two.The Warriors considered Barnes an insurance policy, as he put it, and would have matched the Mavs offer if Durant had chosen to re-sign with the Oklahoma City Thunder. Barnes said he considered his exit interview the closing of that chapter of his career.It would have been a little awkward, Barnes said. At a press conference if they would have been like, Yeah, we really wanted him to come [back], no one would really believe that. You know what Im saying?How things went down, like I said, its a business. Its not something you get emotionally hurt about or anything like that, but when you lose and they say, Thank you, were going to go in a different direction, you take that and keep it moving.

Before Keshav Maharaj had turned three, Kiran More looked at his palms and predicted: This child will be a cricketer. Cheap Air Max 90 .More was not angling for a career as a clairvoyant, but as a former gloveman and with the knowledge that Keshavs father, Athmanand, was also a wicketkeeper, he must have seen something. As it turned out, it was not the palms that held Keshavs future, but his fingers. Two decades later, Keshav has made a career as a left-arm spinner to fulfill Mores prophecy and his fathers dream.Athmanand played for Natal B during the bad old days when sport was segregated. He knew someone of his skin colour would not be able to challenge for higher honours but immersed himself in the sport anyway.It was difficult for us, but despite the challenges we faced, we managed to produce some outstanding players. We enjoyed the game and we played it hard, Athmanand told ESPNcricinfo. It was a big part of our lives.So big that it consumed Athmanands young son. When Keshav wasnt receiving throwdowns, he was rubbing shoulders with the whos who of the cricket world when South Africa were being welcomed back to the international community. Players like Sachin Tendulkar, Mohammad Azharuddin and Pravin Amre.In 1992, when India travelled to South Africa for the Friendship tour, Athmanand was among the many friends the players made. Back then, it was commonplace for members of the Indian community to host the visiting team for meals, and the Maharaj home was one that the players visited.More became a family friend and remains in touch. He was the first person to give Athmanand the confidence to believe that a cricket career was possible, albeit not for him.With his playing days behind him, Athmanand worked in education, enjoyed a stint as deputy director general of sport in the Kwa-Zulu Natal Province and completed cricket coaching courses, all the while giving his son lessons in the game. Keshav played in the backyard, in the Bakers Mini-Cricket progamme (a developmental sports programme for primary school kids), and at school. He was a left-arm seamer and a decent batsman.One day in the nets, Keshav was mad about something and decided to bowl spin. He told the Sunday Independent that nobody stopped him from making the switch and the new bowling style simply stuck. No one was happier than Athmanand .From my experience as a wicketkeeper, I had learned a lot about spin, so I tried to mould him that way.Keshavs twirling earned him places in a team two age groups above his level and made him a star at Northwood School, the alma mater of Shaun Pollock. By the time he was 18, he had become a regular in the school XI.His father remained his most loyal supporter. I followed him everywhere and kept a scorebook with his performances. I still have it at home, Athmanand said.In 2008, despite making it to the provincial Under-19 side, Keshav was not picked in South Africas U-19 World Cup squad. He confessed to City Press that he was probably a little on the large side, which may have counted against him.Still, he progressed. He was chosen for the South African academy, given a rookie contract at the Dolphins and was on the fringes of the franchise side. Athmanand allowed his son all the time he needed to see if he could carve a career in cricket because he saw in Keshav someone with a good head on his shoulders, who is very focused and very determined in everything he does. He knows exactly what he wants and I told him I would support him in that.But he also advised Keshav to have a plan B. Keshav took up a marketing degree part-time but he honed his plan A. He went to play in the Sussex Premier League in 2013, an adventure that took him away from home comforts and his mothers kitchen.I turned my life around. I lost weight and worked on my fitness, Keshav said.When Keshav returned, Dolphins team-mate Imraan Khan remembers that he looked like a completely different person, with a more diligent attitude towards eating. Cooking became a passion for him. He started a food blog and has been part of cooking shows on the local radio station East Coast Radio .Hes a pretty good cook, Athmanand said. The leaner Keshav enjoyed vastly improved results. In the 2014-15 season, he was sixth on the first-class wicket charts with 36 at 29.38. Last season he was seventh with the same number of wickets at 32.Even though there was a slew of spinners on the South African radar - Imran Tahir, Robin Peterson, Dane Piedt, Simon Harmer and Aaron Phangiso - Athmanand felt Keshav was doing too well to be ignored.There were times when we thought he would get a shot, but with team balance and that kind of thing, we always said that if it came, that would be good and if not, he would just keep doing his thing, because eventually he would get there. Statistics play a very important role.In the first match of this summers first-class season, Athmanand was proved right. Sort of. Keshav got a career-best haul of 13 for 157 to bowl Dolphins to an innings victory over Warriors in East London. But his place in the Test squad had been decided after he took his first wicket in the game.After the second days play, with Warriors on 104 for 1 in reply to Dolphins 478, in which Keshav had contributed a 71-ball 72, he got a phone call.It was Linda Zondi [the convener of the national selection panel], and he just told Keshav, Well batted, and then said that he needs his passport, Ahtmanand said. I told him it might mean he was selected but that he mustnt jump to any conclusions.Over the next two days, Keshav ran through the Warriors line-up, taking six more wickets in the first innings and six more in the follow-on. Then he found out he was going to Australia.He was surprised, but it is also a very well-deserved call-up, said Imraan. Over the last few seasons what he has really worked on is consistency in length and thats what he is so good at. When we have needed a spinner to stop the game, he has done exactly that, but at the same time he has remained an attacking bowler and has always picked up wickets.South Africa are searching for exactly that kind of spinner, especially in a series where they expect the quicks to dominate. Whether that will give Keshav the edge over Tabraiz Shamsi, a left-arm chinaman and the only other spinner in the squad, remains to be seen.Keshavs family members are unlikely to travel to Australia to watch the series because of the time it will take to get their visas and Athmanand is busy getting Keshavs new flat ready for occupation. But regardless of whether he gets the opportunity to watch his son walk out in South Africa colours, Athmanand is ecstatic.It will be fantastic if he gets his first cap, but even if he doesnt on this tour, he has made us all very proud. We know his journey begins now. Authentic Air Max 2017 Sale .

Even when youre a fan of one specific major league baseball team, it can be difficult to keep track of all of the news that surrounds your favorite club on a daily basis. Nike Free Pas Cher .However, when youre a fantasy baseball owner and you now have to multiply that effort by 30 in order to be as up to date as possible with each and every club? Its a fools errand that borders on the impossible.Fear not! Well be here each and every week to give you a snapshot of whats going on in the world of baseball, with one fantasy takeaway from each of the leagues 30 teams. Think of it as your one-stop shop for the week ahead. Here are the takeaways for this week, as the second half of the season gets underway:Arizona Diamondbacks: Zack Greinke is not quite ready to return to the Arizona rotation, and will likely miss the first week-plus of the second half of the season. Greinke is currently on the disabled list with a strained left oblique and has yet to throw off a mound, a key step before activation. With extra days off on the slate, the Diamondbacks can go with a four-man rotation for a bit before Greinkes spot has to be called upon.Atlanta Braves: Catcher Tyler Flowers has a fractured hand, the result of being hit by a pitch on July 1. Although he tried to play through the pain, he will likely miss 4-6 weeks as a result of the injury. Anthony Recker has been called up from the minors, but the bulk of the catching duties will likely fall to veteran A.J. Pierzynski. The staffs ERA this season has actually been better with Pierzynski behind the plate, 4.04 compared to 4.57 with Flowers framing the pitches.Baltimore Orioles: Hyun Soo Kim strained his right hamstring on Sunday, and a trip to the disabled list has not yet been officially ruled out by the Orioles. Theyre planning to run the outfielder through some drills today, and if theres any lingering concerns, then its possible that he may have to miss some time. Over his past 13 games, Kim is batting .333 with a 1.00 BB/K rate and seven RBI.Boston Red Sox:?Craig Kimbrel had arthroscopic surgery on Monday to repair his left knee woes and will be out for around 3-6 weeks as a result of the successful procedure. However, with a rehab assignment on the horizon before hell be given a green light to reclaim his closers job, Koji Uehara will likely have to be the ninth-inning answer for Boston into September.Chicago Cubs: Dexter Fowler (hamstring) started a rehab assignment last Friday, but then called it off when he realized he was not going to be ready in time to play in the All-Star Game. Hes getting checked out by the team today, and if he cant immediately get back on the field, hell head back to the minors for a second shot at rehab games. Odds are good, though, that Fowler will be back with the Cubs by Monday at the latest.Chicago White Sox: Justin Morneau had just two hits in his first six rehab games at Charlotte, as he attempts to get ready to make his 2016 debut after signing with Chicago in early June. Morneau then moved to Double-A Birmingham due to Triple-As All-Star break and went 2-for-6 in a pair of games. Expect Morneau to join the White Sox very soon, taking over DH duties from the struggling Avisail Garcia (.130 batting average since June 19).Cincinnati Reds: Trade rumors continue to surround Jay Bruce, who said over the break that the Reds would be doing themselves a disservice if they didnt try to better the organization by trading me and getting prospects. One team that has expressed interest is San Francisco, who has also been linked to Andrew Miller of the Yankees. Cleveland, Kansas City and Toronto are also believed to be in the chase for Bruce, and its beginning to look increasingly unlikely that hell still be in Cincinnati come August.Cleveland Indians: Michael Brantleys long road back to Cleveland is scheduled to move to Akron this weekend. Neither the outfielder, nor the Indians are willing to say when Brantley (torn labrum) will finally be ready to get back into major league action, but with rehab assignments limited to 20 days, common wisdom would indicate that about two more weeks would seem to be a reasonable timetable, if he is to return at all in 2016.Colorado Rockies: Sure, when talking about the Rockies rotation, its always relative, but still, manager Walt Weiss believes his current rotation is the best hes had in Colorado. And the stats do bear this out, with starting pitcher ERA showing improvement each month of the season thus far, from 5.60 in April to 3.98 to date in July. Jorge De la Rosa kicks off a second half on Friday that will see the team play 10 of its next 17 away from Coors Field.Detroit Tigers: The general feeling coming out of Detroit is that the team will not make any deals of significance this season, even as it remains intent on pursuing a playoff spot. The likes of Ian Kinsler, J.D. Martinez and Francisco Rodriguez all have contract situations that might bring enough return in the form of prospects to merit considering a deal, but for a team that tends to use the same lineup day in and day out, they can ill afford to lose any of them and still contend in 2016. Theyre basically stuck.Houston Astros: Despite all the buzz surrounding Alex Bregman, who went 3-for-5, falling only a home run shy of the cycle at Sundays Futures Game in San Diego, he will start the second half of the season in Triple-A. Manager A.J. Hinch said that while the youngster, most likely targeted for third base when he does eventually join the Astros, could indeed help the team down the stretch, he will not be in Seattle this weekend.Kansas City Royals: While the team may not be back at full strength immediately out of the gate this weekend, the Royals do expect to have both Lorenzo Cain (hamstring) and Wade Davis (forearm) back in active service within a week. Cain is eligible to be activated today, but will need some rehab games before jumping back into the Kansas City lineup.Los Angeles Angels: After getting hit on the hand by a pitch, C.J. Cron will miss 6-8 weeks as he recovers from corrective surgery to repair the damage. While Albert Pujols could see a little more time at first base while Cron is out, the Angels did recall Ji-Man Choi from Triple-A Salt Lake to assist at the position. Choi had been hitting .327 at Triple-A, with 27 RBIs in 45 games. Jefry Marte will also see some time at first base.Los Angeles Dodgers: Clayton Kershaw is eligible to return from the disabled list, but will need a little more time to deal with his herniated disc before retaking the mound. While nobody is willing to give a definite timetable, manager Dave Roberts said that his ace would not need a rehab assignment before rejoining the rotation. However, he didnt know yet if the pitcher would be traveling with the Dodgers on their upcoming nine-game road trip.Miami Marlins: Is Giancarlo Stanton due for a bit of a power slump after his stellar performance in the All-Star Home Run Derby? Its always essential for fantasy players to avoid putting too much weight into small sample sizes, but for the record, Todd Frazier his just two home runs in the 23 games after winning the Derby last season. The prior two years, Yoenis Cespedes followed up his back-to-back titles with just three in 18 games, both times. And in 2012, Prince Fielder his just three homers in the first three weeks of the second half. Food for thought.Milwaukee Brewers: Jonathan Lucroy has been the subject of trade rumors before, and will continue to be surrounded by buzz through the deadline or until Milwaukee actually makes a deal. Texas is believed to be interested in the catcher, and as Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports reports, the Brewers had multiple scouts at a Rangers Rookie League game this week, further adding fuel to the fire that the teams may be cooking up some sort of swap.Minnesota Twins: Im not sure this really qualifies as if it aint broke, dont fix it, but manager Paul Molitor seems to be satisfied with the recent run of success from his rotation headed into the break. Minnesotas starters have a season-best 3.05 ERA and a .222 BAA in July, so hell keep the rotation on track, with Ervin Santana kicking things off Friday, followed by Tyler Duffey, Kyle Gibson, Ricky Nolasco and Tommy Milone, in that order.New York Mets: Noah Syndergaard did not pitch in the All-Star Game, as manager Terry Collins chose to let his right-hander continue to rest his fatigued arm. As of now, the Mets fully expect Syndergaard to be back on the mound against the Cubs on July 19, next Tuesday. However, if he ends up getting pulled early in that game, it would be hard to imagine him avoiding a trip to the disabled list.New York Yankees: World Series home-field advantage to the winner notwithstanding, the results of the All-Star Game really dont mean anything to most of the participants. However, for Carlos Beltran, his ability to get through two innings in right field meant a lot. Beltran, who has been limited to DH duties due to hamstring issues, has declared himself fit to return to the outfield for the Yankees. That opens up the door for Alex Rodriguez to DH more often, as opposed to the platoon situation into which Beltrans injury had forced the veteran.Oakland Athletics: When contract negotiations stalled this spring between the As and Josh Reddick, the two sides were really not all that far apart. However, with the trade deadline looming, and with that gap still not having been addressed, the chances of Reddick being sent packing are strong. Kansas City, San Francisco, the Cubs and Dodgers are all said to be interested in Reddick, but Toronto might also enter the mix. Reddick has hit eight home runs in just 18 career games at the Rogers Centre.Philadelphia Phillies: Could the Phillies have an outfield of Nick Williams, Aaron Altherr and Odubel Herrera by August? Its a possibility. Altherr (wrist) is ready to start a rehab assignment this week, while Williams has hit .283 with 41 RBI at Triple-A. In any event, their presence in the organization has led to speculation that both Cody Asche and Peter Bourjos could be headed out of town via trade before July is over.Pittsburgh Pirates: Gerrit Cole (strained right triceps) got through a pair of rehab starts with flying colors, including a six-strikeout, five-inning, two-hit performance in his last outing at Triple-A. He will rejoin the Pittsburgh rotation on Saturday against the Nationals, slotting in between Francisco Liriano and Chad Kuhl.St. Louis Cardinals: Trevor Rosenthal had positive MRI results, with no tear found in his sore hamstring. That good news means the pitcher should be available out of the bullpen on Friday, and while hes not going to be handed back his closers job just yet, the time off could certainly do wonders towards getting the struggling reliever back on track.San Diego Padres: Drew Pomeranz took the mound at the All-Star Game representing the hometown Padres, but hes not likely to remain with the club much longer. Reports have as much as a third of the league inquiring as to the pitchers availability. The Rangers are one of those teams and San Diego is believed to want to nab Jurickson Profar in any return package from Texas. With so many clubs in the mix on Pomeranz, the price tag is bound to be quite high.San Francisco Giants: Hunter Pence (hamstring surgery) is closing in on a return to the Giants. Manager Bruce Bochy is targeting July 25 as the potential date for getting the veteran outfielder back in his lineup. He may have Joe Panik (concussion) back sooner than that, but the second basemans return depends almost entirely on whether hell get medical clearance from the league.Seattle Mariners: Although he struggled a bit with his mechanics due to rust, Felix Hernandez (calf) got through a rehab assignment on Sunday without any physical setbacks. The King will now pitch for Triple-A Tacoma on Friday, and if all goes well, he is scheduled to rejoin the Mariners at home on Wednesday, July 20 against the White Sox. Mike Montgomery will remain in the rotation until Hernandez returns.Tampa Bay Rays: Neither Hank Conger (.194) nor Curt Casali (.169) have done much at the plate this season, but Casali has been better at throwing out would-be base stealers, so perhaps thats why hes the one who will stick around Tampa Bay for the second half. Conger has been demoted to Triple-A. Either Luke Maile or J.P. Arencibia will get the call to back up Casali before Fridays action.Texas Rangers: Yu Darvish (shoulder) will be back on Saturday, starting for the Rangers against the Chicago Cubs. He threw a successful bullpen session on Wednesday, setting him up to be activated from the disabled list in order to rejoin the team in time for this weekends action. In his last rehab start, Darvish got his pitch count up to 72, so he may be able to work as many as five or six innings his first time out.Toronto Blue Jays: Chris Colabello can return from his 80-game suspension on July 23, and as per league rules, he can participate in minor league games once he gets within 10 days of that date. So, playing for Class-A Dunedin, Colabello went 1-for-3 with a double on Wednesday, as he hopes to do enough over the next week or so for Toronto to welcome him back. However, as he does have options available, the Blue Jays could decide to send him to Triple-A instead.Washington Nationals: Lucas Giolito, who turns 22 today, pitched twice with the Nationals before getting sent back down to the minors on July 8. On Tuesday, he threw with Class-A Hagerstown in order to stay on schedule and allowed two home runs over seven innings, while striking out four. While the performance itself wasnt all that impressive, just the fact he pitched when he did may indicate that the Nationals expect to bring him back to Washington sooner, rather than later.

CHICAGO -- An Illinois high school football team that lost a playoff football game because officials made an incorrect call wont be in the state championship contest after a judge on Wednesday rejected its bid to overturn the outcome.Judge Kathleen Kennedy rejected an unusual lawsuit from Chicago suburban Fenwick High School seeking to reverse the Plainfield North High School victory Saturday. Fenwick said it would not appeal the decision.That sends Plainfield North High School to the Class A state title game Saturday against East St. Louis, but none of the parties involved was celebrating.Fenwick led the playoff game 10-7 and had the ball on fourth down on its own 15-yard line with four seconds left. The Fenwick quarterback heaved the ball downfield and used up the time left on the clock. Officials ruled the play to be intentional grounding, a penalty that gave Plainfield North the ball and one more play, which it used to kick a field goal and tie the game before winning 18-17 in overtime.The Illinois High School Association, which governs prep sports in the state, said the call was a mistake. The association apologized to Fenwick, but said there was no way for the school to appeal the outcome through the organization.In her ruling Wednesday, Kennedy cited an association bylaw that says officials decisions are final.The association argued that if Fenwick prevailed it could lead to a flood of lawsuits over incorrect decisions by officials.I wish there was a way that Fenwick could participate in the game, but theres not. Sometimes the law is not fair, David Bressler, an association attorney, argued in court. Nike Free Destockage. Fenwick principal Peter Groom said in a statement: We applaud the Plainfield North athletes and coaches for a well-played semi-final game, and we thank them for their continued sportsmanship and understanding.Plainfield North spokesman Tom Hernandez praised the decision but, in a printed statement, stressed: We reiterate our empathy for our friends from Fenwick High School and their supporters.Illinois association spokesman Matt Troha said he is not aware of a previous case in which a school in Illinois tried to use the courts to change the outcome of a high school sports event.In 2014, an Oklahoma judge declined a high schools request to have a football playoff game replayed after a referees mistake cost the schools team a touchdown. The judge expressed concern about a slippery slope that could lead to future litigation over wins and losses.The association said Wednesday that it will look for ways to try to prevent such problems in future, but it isnt yet clear what that will involve.There is no celebration and there are no winners in this circumstance. It is simply a resolution, the association said in an emailed statement. The Fenwick High School community has been dealt a pair of devastating blows over the past few days, while Plainfield North had a historic moment shrouded in controversy.
