Foxboro, MA (SportsNetwork. Yordano Ventura Royals Jersey .com) - New England Patriots tight end Rob�Gronkowski may very well make his season-debut Sunday against the New York Jets. NFL.com cited Gronkowskis agent, Drew Rosenhaus, as saying doctors have cleared the two-time Pro Bowl star to play after recovering from numerous offseason surgeries on his back and forearm. Patriots head coach Bill Belichick wouldnt comment on the report during his morning media briefing. "Well list the injuries at the end of the day, like we always do," Belichick said. Gronkowski has been practicing with the team and it was thought he might play last week against New Orleans, but was held out after medical clearance was not given. The 24-year-old Arizona product twice fractured his forearm last year and played only 11 games, finishing the season with 55 receptions for 790 yards with 11 touchdowns. He has 38 TD catches in three NFL seasons. Justin Maxwell Jersey . The reported price for the Jays was Marcus�Stroman and Aaron�Sanchez. Would you make that deal? The Blue Jays are in first place in the AL East. Alex Gordon Jersey . And former Maple Leafs coach Ron Wilson certainly knows his pain. "Its pretty hard to coach there without allowing some of these things to kind of affect you," Wilson told TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun in his ESPN. Baseball season is just around the corner and TSN.ca has you covered for whos in, whos out and what to expect from all 30 teams. Check in every day this week for two new division previews, finishing up with Scott MacArthurs look at the Toronto Blue Jays on Friday. Heres what to expect out of the American League West in 2014. Houston Astros GM:�Jeff Luhnow Manager:�Bo�Porter 2013:�54-111, fifth in AL West. Did not qualify for playoffs. That was Then:�The Astros American League debut last season wasnt exactly a sterling one. Coming over from the National League Central to the AL West, the Astros dropped a league-worst 111 games last season, the most by any team in 10 years and a franchise record, and hit the 100-loss mark for the the third-straight season. They closed the year on a 15-game losing streak. Welcome to the American League. Though the teams season was abysmal, catcher Jason�Castros was not. The third-year catcher set team records for the position in home runs (18), runs (63) and slugging percentage (.485). In recognition of his season, Castro was named the teams lone All-Star. Jose�Altuve continued to emerge as one of the leagues finest young middle infielders and the team was able to lock him up to a modest, $12.5 million, four-year extension last summer that included two team options. The 23-year-old Venezuelan led the Majors with 41 hits in September and finished the season with career-highs in hits and RBI. To be charitable, the Astros entire pitching staff was battered last season. The teams ace, Bud�Norris, and its closer, Jose�Veras, were both trade at the trade deadline in July (Norris to the Baltimore Orioles and Veras to the Detroit Tigers) and the rest of the Astros arms struggled mightily. The Houston staff and bullpen finished with a league-worst 4.79 ERA and gave up 766 earned runs, 33 more than the second-worst Milwaukee Brewers. Third-year starter Jordan�Lyles, now with the Colorado Rockies after a December trade, led the rotation with a modest seven victories. This is Now:�Its pretty telling of a teams offseason when the biggest news will likely have little to no impact at all on the club on the field. After bringing aboard Reid Ryan a year ago as team president, the team brought back his father, Hall of Famer Nolan, as a special assistant to owner Jim Crane in February. Obviously, Astros fans will be thrilled to have the legendary Ryan back in the fold, especially at the expense of their cross-state rival Texas Rangers, but nostalgia will only take you so far and not nearly as far the Astros need it to in 2014. Despite the acquisitions of veteran help in Dexter�Fowler, Chad�Qualls and Canadian Jesse�Crain and a new staff ace in Scott�Feldman (the teams highest-paid player at $10 million), this season has the potential to look a lot like last season. Thats not to say that there isnt young talent to be excited about for the Astros in the likes of George�Springer, Delino DeShields, Jr. and Mark�Appel, all of whom will likely see some Majors experience this year, but their time has not come yet or, at least, it shouldnt be expected to come yet. While the team has made strides to correct its bullpen woes, outside of Fowler, little has been done to address 2013s .673 OPS (again, a league-worst), another 100-loss season shouldnt come as a surprise. One early storyline to follow: If the Astros start the season with six-straight losses (they open with a six-game homestand with the New York Yankees and Los Angeles Angels), they will have lost 21-consecutive games that will tie the 1988 Baltimore Orioles record for the longest streak since the turn of the 20th Century. Fun times. Whos In?:�OF Dexter�Fowler (trade with COL), SP Scott�Feldman (three-year deal), RP Jesse�Crain (one-year deal), RP Chad�Qualls (two-year deal + option), RP Matt�Albers (one-year deal + option), OF Jesus�Guzman (trade with SD) and SP Jerome�Williams (one-year contract). Whos Out?:�SP Erik�Bedard (signed with TB), OF Brandon�Barnes, SP Jordan�Lyles (traded to COL) and 1B Brent Wallace (designated for assignment; later signed with BAL). Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim GM:�Jerry Dipoto Manager:�Mike Scoscia 2013:�78-84, third in AL West. Did not qualify for playoffs. That was Then:�Halos owner Arte Moreno has never been shy about spending money and made the biggest free agent splash last offseason in scooping up slugger Josh�Hamilton from the rival Texas Rangers. But like the Albert�Pujols signing the previous winter, Hamilton failed to pay the immediate dividends expected, hitting just .250 with only 21 homers and 79 RBI. Those are fine numbers for an average-to-above average outfielder, but not ones expected from a perennial All-Star and former MVP in the handsomely paid Hamilton. He wasnt the only disappointment for a team expected to contend for the division title and even more. Injuries forced the Angels to trot out 11 different starting pitchers in 2013 and, while Jered�Weaver and C.J.�Wilson were dependable, the rest of that rotation was not. On the bright side, Mike�Trout, once again, made his case for being the best all-around player on the planet with 27 home runs, 97 RBI, a .326 average and an OPS of .988. This is Now:�The good news? The chances of Pujols and Hamilton bouncing back this year are exponentially greater than the pair having another off-year. Make no mistake, though, both sluggers are aging (34 and 32, respectively) and the team knows that its window with those two is closing. The team sacrificed some power and speed in the outfield to address concerns in the infield and on the mound. In dealing Peter�Bourjos, arguably the fastest player in the American League, to the St. Louis Cardinals, the team acquired the dependable bat and infield arm of David�Freese, who slots into third base. The team also traded Mark�Trumbo and his 34 homers and 100 RBI as part of a three-team deal with the Arizona Diamondbacks and Chicago White Sox that netted young arms Tyler�Skaggs and Hector�Santiago. Skaggs has more upside of the pair, but both pitchers will be looked upon to shore up the back end of the rotation (along with Garrett�Richards) that sorely needs the help. The team will also find out if outfielder Kole�Calhoun is ready for prime time. Calhoun, who has looked good in a small sample size, will lead off for the club and is expected to be the everyday right fielder. Whether hes up to the task remains to be seen. Another thing: The team needs to be much better playing within the division. They were 32-44 against divisional opposition last season, including an abysmal 4-15 against the Rangers. A year after unquestionable failure, tempered hopes for 2014 belie the fact that much is still expected from this team. Whos In?: IF David�Freese (trade with STL), DH Raul�Ibanez (one-year deal), SP Tyler�Skaggs (acquired from ARI), SP Hector�Santiago (acquired from CWS) and RP Joe�Smith (three-year deal) Whos Out?:�OF Mark�Trumbo (traded to ARI), OF Peter�Bourjos (traded to STL), SP Jason�Vargas (signed with KC) and SP Jerome�Williams (signed with HOU) Oakland Athletics GM:�Billy Beane Manager:�Bob Melvin 2013:�96-66, first in AL West. Lost to Detroit in American League Divisional Series. That was Then:�You would think that the Oakland As would get sick of defying the odds, but no, they went out again last season and won the AL West over the highly favoured Angels and Rangers for a second-straight year. The offence was led by Josh�Donaldson, who finished fourth in AL MVP voting after an outstanding campaign that saw him hit 24 home runs and knock in 97 RBI while hitting .301 with an .883 OPS and an 8.0 WAR. Thats not to say that the team relied on Donaldson solely. The team produced the third-most runs in the AL through a balanced attack that featured major contributions from Josh�Reddick, Jed�Lowrie, Brandon�Moss, Coco�Crisp and Yoenis�Cespedes. On the mound, ace Jarrod�Parker continued to eat innings (12-8, 3.97 ERA and 1.223 WHIP in 197.0 IP), while the seemingly ageless Bartolo�Colon won 18 games and was named to the All-Star team eight years after his last appearance. A.J Griffin, Tommy�Milone and Dan�Straily rounded out what ended up being one of the best youngg staffs in all of baseball. Norichika Aoki Royals Jersey. A bullpen anchored by closer Grant�Balfour was arguably the best in the AL. This is Now:�Injuries have ravaged the rotation and the As will have to overcome those if they have any designs on a threepeat. Parker is lost for the season, thanks to a second Tommy John surgery. Griffin has been shut down for most of spring training with elbow discomfort. New signing Scott�Kazmir will be ready for Opening Day, but he, too, has been afflicted with triceps issues. With Colon moving on in free agency, the team hopes that Sonny�Gray, impressive in his 10 Major League appearances, can slip seamlessly into the rotation and help shoulder the load. Milone and Straily will make up the back-end of the rotation with the likes of Jesse�Chavez and Drew�Pomeranz able to spot-start if need be. Even with Balfour gone to the Rays, the bullpen remains a strength and is now anchored by All-Star Jim�Johnson, the ALs reigning saves leader over the past two seasons. Luke�Gregerson and Fernando�Abad, the other new pen additions, will also be joined by Eric�OFlaherty in the summer, once his rehab for Tommy John is completed. If the As offence, mostly unchanged from last season, plays to what its capable of and its staff depth can absorb the teams pitching injuries, Oakland will be competing for another division title and another trip to the post-season in 2014. Whos In?:�RP Jim�Johnson (trade with BAL), SP Scott�Kazmir (two-year deal), OF Craig�Gentry (trade with TEX), RP Luke�Gregerson (acquired from SD), RP Fernando�Abad (acquired from ARI) and Nick�Punto (one-year deal with club option). Whos Out?: SP Bartolo�Colon (signed with SF), RP Grant�Balfour (signed with TB) and OF Seth�Smith. Seattle Mariners GM:�Jack Zduriencik Manager:�Lloyd McClendon 2013:�71-91, fourth in AL West. Did not qualify for playoffs. That was Then:�The Mariners werent very good last year, finishing below .500 for the fourth straight-time and missing the playoffs for a 12th-consecutive season. Much was riding on the youth in Seattle last year and, while their were flashes of greatness, there was nothing consistent enough to make anybody think twice about the Mariners as anything but also-rans. Former first-round pick Justin�Smoak again failed to live up to potential with a dreadful year at the plate, hitting .209 in the second-half of the season. Dustin�Ackley struggled with consistency, while the less said about Jesus�Monteros season, the better. Still, there were signs of life from youngsters with Kyle�Seager, Canadian Michael�Saunders and Nick�Franklin all showing why the team values the trio so highly. Veteran acquisitions were a mixed bag. Raul�Ibanez and Kendrys�Morales contributed offensively with the seemingly 150-year-old former leading the team with 29 RBI and the latter knocking in 80 runs. On the flip side, Mike Morse disappointed and was jettisoned to the Baltimore Orioles at the deadline and Jason�Bay simply had nothing left in the tank. The team got 200-plus innings from Hishashi Iwakuma and superstar Felix�Hernandez, but pitching on the whole, was suspect. The Mariners had the fifth-worst team ERA at 4.25, the fifth-most hits allowed (1467) and the fourth-most earned runs conceded (702). This is Now:�The Mariners spent that Nintendo money in the offseason...a whole lot of it. The team signed the most coveted player available in Robinson�Cano to a massive 10-year, $240 million deal, but that wasnt all. Closer Fernando�Rodney was brought in to anchor the bullpen and former All-Star Corey�Hart, who missed all of last season, was signed to a one-year deal. Hes slotted in to play right field. The question remains, even with Cano and the other additions, is this Mariners team any better equipped to compete in what should be a good AL West? New manager Lloyd McClendon has spent the last several seasons as Jim Leylands right-hand man in Detroit, so theres hope that hes learned some of the codgers tricks after what was a pretty inauspicious managerial bow with the Pittsburgh Pirates. If the teams youth can step up (including highly rated starter Taijuan�Walker, who starts the season on the DL and speedy shortstop Brad Miller) with a previously absent level of consistency, Hart can return to form and the likes of Smoak and newly acquired Logan�Morrison tap into their potential, the Mariners will be in the mix, but it will be tough. Whos In?:�2B Robinson�Cano (10-year deal), OF Corey�Hart (one-year deal), OF Logan�Morrison (trade with MIA), C John�Buck (one-year contract) and IF Willie�Bloomquist (two-year deal). Whos Out?:�OF Jason�Bay (retired), OF Kendrys�Morales (unsigned), Raul�Ibanez (signed with LAA), RP Carter�Capps (traded to MIA), SP Aaron�Harang (signed with ATL), RP Oliver�Perez (signed with ARI) and SP Joe�Saunders (unsigned) Texas Rangers GM:�Jon Daniels Manager:�Ron Washington 2013:�91-72, second in AL West. Did not qualify for playoffs. That was Then:�After a horrible collapse in 2012, the Rangers found a new way to end the season on a sour note, losing an AL Wild Card tie-breaker (the 163rd game of the season) to the Tampa Bay Rays to miss the playoffs for the first time since 2009. September was once again cruel to the Rangers, as a 5-15 start to the month effectively ended their pursuit of the Athletics division lead and condemned them to the tie-breaker. Why did this happen again? While still respectable and despite the yeomans effort of Adrian�Beltre, the offence suffered with the departures of Josh�Hamilton and Mike�Napoli. The team led the league with 808 runs in 2012, but only scored 730 last season. Losing Nelson�Cruz to a 50-game PED suspension certainly didnt help those matters any. On the other side of the ball, Yu�Darvish was dominant, recording 278 strikeouts, the most by any pitcher since Randy�Johnson in 2012. The bullpen, anchored by the 43 saves of Joe�Nathan (now departed), was also solidly reliable, but the midseason acquisition of Matt�Garza did not work out as planned. This is Now:�If the Rangers had questions about making up for lost run production last season, they think theyve answered them by bringing in Prince�Fielder and Shin-Soo�Choo. Though Fielder cost the hefty price of 2B Ian�Kinsler, the Rangers hope that Fielder can take advantage of the short fence in right field. Choo, the new lead-off man, will be relied upon to help set the plate for the big first baseman and if the two combine the way that theyre capable of, the Rangers will have found a lethal combination at the top of the order. The team isnt sure with what theyll get offensively from the platoon behind the plate. With A.J.�Pierzynski in Boston and Geovany�Soto out for up to three months with a torn meniscus in his knee, J.P.�Arencibia appears to be the man. Arencibia is coming off of one of the statistically worst seasons ever with the Toronto Blue Jays. With Kinsler gone, stud prospect Jurickson�Profar gets an everyday role, but hes going to miss up to three months with a torn muscle in his shoulder. The Rangers wont start the year on the mound unscathed, either. Derek�Holland is out until the summer, recovering from knee surgery. Matt�Harrison is also not ready to go with a back injury. The teams impressive pitching depth allows for the likes of Matt Tepesch to step into the rotation, but questions remain. Despite the loss of Nathan, the Rangers bullpen remains formidable and, if he can regain his form prior to his injury, Neftali Perez could make for a fine closer. Whos In?:�1B Prince�Fielder (trade with Detroit), OF Shin-Soo�Choo (seven-year deal), C J.P.�Arencibia (one-year deal), OF Michael�Choice (acquired from OAK) and IF Donnie�Murphy (acquired from CHC). Whos Out?:�2B Ian�Kinsler (traded to DET), RP Joe�Nathan (signed with DET), OF Nelson�Cruz (signed with BAL), SP Matt�Garza (signed with MIL), DH Lance�Berkman (retired), OF Craig�Gentry (traded to OAK), C A.J.�Pierzynski (signed with BOS) and OF David�Murphy (signed with CLE) Sorry, youll have to wait.

Each day, TSN.ca provides the latest rumours, reports and speculation from around the NHL beat. Going D-eep Ordinarily, one would assume the Edmonton Oilers were once again in prime position to improve their future, holding the third overall pick in Fridays NHL Draft. Trading down, however, might be the best course of action for the Oil - according to The Hockey News Matt Larkin. Larkin suggests that with the Florida Panthers likely to make Aaron Ekblad the first-overall pick on Friday, Edmonton would be better served to trade down from the No. 3 to acquire "an established asset" and scoop the Drafts consensus second-best blueliner, Red Deers Haydn Fleury. The Oilers have long needed to bolster their blue line and started that process by taking Darnell Nurse seventh overall last June. Larkin floats the hypothetical idea of the Oilers looking to deal with the Toronto Maple Leafs, possibly getting a young defender like Jake Gardiner along with the eighth overall selection in exchange for the third overall pick. The scenario would offer the Leafs a crack at a top-end forward like one of Sam Reinhart, Sam Bennett or Leon Draisaitl while allowing the Oilers to have a realistic shot at Fleury. Wait and C? From the sounds of it, the Montreal Canadiens may not be searching for a new captain come July 1? ESPN The Magazines Craig Custtance tweeted Saturday morning that Habs captain Brian Gionta will be meeting with his agent to discuss his future options. wholesale nfl jerseys. According to Giontas agent Steve Bartlett, Gionta has "no strong inclination to leave" Montreal. A pending unrestricted free agent, Gionta is coming off a five year deal that paid him $5 million per season. The 35-year-old American scored 18 goals and 22 assists in 81 games last season. Foreign Markets Teams may look beyond North American shores on July 1 to scoop up additions for the 2014-15 season. In another tweet, Custance mentioned a couple intriguing options could be returning to the NHL, namely Kontinental Hockey League forward Leo Komarov and former first-round pick Peter Mueller. Custance mentioned that Komarov is still talking to his former team, the Toronto Maple Leafs. The Leafs hold Komarovs NHL rights until July 1 since he opted to return to the KHL for 2013-14 while still eligible for restricted free agency in the NHL. The Finn has spent parts of each of the last five seasons with Moscow Dynamo, including a brief stint during the lockout-shortened 2012-13 season. Komarov was a popular grinder and depth forward for the 2012-13 Leafs team that became the first to make the playoffs since 2003-04. Mueller, meanwhile, led the Swiss League in goals in 2013-14. He scored 24 in 49 games with Kloten. The eighth overall selection by the Phoenix Coyotes in 2006, Muellers NHL career-high was 22 goals in his 2007-08 rookie season. cheap jerseys ' ' '

NEW YORK -- Step by step, the improving New York Mets are building momentum for the second half. Cheap Jerseys . Chris�Young and rookie Eric Campbell delivered big hits off the bench in the late innings to rally New York past the Miami Marlins 5-4 on Saturday. Youngs pinch-hit, two-run homer off Bryan�Morris tied it at 4 in the seventh. Campbell came through with a pinch-hit single in the eighth to put the Mets ahead. "That might be the biggest win of the year right there for us," manager Terry Collins said. Daisuke�Matsuzaka struck out 10 in six innings and New York (44-50) executed a perfect suicide squeeze, moving to 7-2 on a 10-game homestand that leads into the All-Star break. Christian�Yelich homered for the Marlins, who have lost four of five. With two outs in the eighth, Travis�dArnaud doubled off left-hander Mike�Dunn (7-5). Campbell batted for Kirk�Nieuwenhuis and poked a soft single into centre to give the Mets their first lead. "I just didnt execute the pitch: 3-2 slider," Dunn said. "Left it over the plate. Pretty much the only bad slider I threw all inning." Vic�Black (2-2) worked a scoreless inning, and Jenrry�Mejia got three quick outs for his 10th save. It is the third time the Mets have won seven games on a homestand at Citi Field, which opened in 2009. All-Star second baseman Daniel�Murphy stretched high for a leaping grab that kept the game tied in the top of the eighth, eliciting a roar not heard very often at Citi Field lately. Many in the festive crowd of 35,283 stayed for a postgame concert by Huey Lewis and the News. "I still cant believe I saw that," dArnaud said. "He could dunk, I think, with how high he jumped." With his days in the rotation probably numbered, as long as Jonathon Niese comes out of the All-Star break healthy, Matsuzaka had his fourth career double-digit strikeout game. The other three came with Boston in 2007, his first season in the majors. "My slider was really good today, which contributed to those strikeouts, but I would rather have gone deeper in the game," Matsuzaka said through a translator. Marlins starter Tom�Koehler, pitching about 12 miles from his New Rochelle hometown, tossed two-hit ball into the seventh and left with a 4-2 lead after a one-out walk to No. 8 batter Ruben�Tejada. Young was batting .195 before launching Morris first pitch into the left-field stands for his second career pinch-hit homer. The other came on June 27, 2012, with Arizona against Atlanta. "Never have I given up. I always realized how many games are left, how much is still possible," said Young, in his first season with the Mets after signing a $7.25 million, one-year contract. "The games ahead have nothing to do with the games that are past." Morris hadnt allowed an earned run in 21 1-3 innings over 17 games with Miami since arriving from Pittsburgh on June 1 -- the longest consecutive innings streak without yielding an earned run to begin a Marlins career. "Stroke of lightning that C.Y. dropped on em right there," Murphy said. Garrett�Jones and Marcell�Ozuna hit consecutive RBI doubles in the sixth off Matsuzaka to put Miami ahead 4-2. Adeiny�Hechavarria hit a leadoff double in the Marlins third and scored when third baseman David�Wright made an error on Donovan�Solanos RBI grounder. With two on, Matsuzaka limited the damage by striking out slumping slugger Giancarlo�Stanton and Casey�McGehee on sliders. Yelichs solo shot in the fifth cleared the right-centre fence near the 390-foot sign. It was only the third home run this season off Matsuzaka, who has thrown 71 innings. New York tied it 2-all in the bottom half after Yelich was slow to get back on Nieuwenhuis double at the left-field wall. Juan�Lagares had an RBI groundout, and Nieuwenhuis dashed home on Tejadas suicide squeeze. "That was one we shouldve been able to lock down," Miami manager Mike Redmond said. "Weve had some struggles holding down a lead late in the game."

The Blue Jackets entered this series against the Metropolitan Division champions as heavy underdogs, but they sit tied with the Penguins at two wins apiece. Columbus has arrived at this point with a pair of overtime victories, including a 4-3 triumph in Wednesdays Game 4 clash at Nationwide Arena that gave the franchise its first home playoff win. MINNEAPOLIS -- Mike�Zimmer is finally a head coach in the NFL. The Minnesota Vikings think now is the time for the veteran defensive co-ordinator. The Vikings announced on Twitter on Wednesday night that they had hired Zimmer for their top coaching job. "Im extremely excited to bring a championship to the state of Minnesota and to the great fan base of the Vikings," Zimmer said in a video posted on the teams Twitter account. "I cant wait to get to work." Long after reports first surfaced about the hire, the Vikings remained quiet. Their silence was strange, considering a report by ESPN that they had already requested and received permission from Cleveland to interview offensive co-ordinator Norv Turner for the same position in Minnesota. The top headline on the team website touted an area winner in the annual NFL Punt, Pass & Kick contest. That doesnt mean the Vikings werent delighted about the ninth head coach in their 54-year history. Tight end Kyle�Rudolph, centre John�Sullivan and defensive end Brian�Robison were among the players who expressed excitement about the former Bengals assistant via their Twitter accounts. "Fired up about Coach Zimmer! As a Cincy kid hes been fun to watch there and cant wait to work with him!" Rudolph tweeted. For the Bengals, the news was bittersweet. Zimmer, who has been an NFL defensive co-ordinator for the last 14 seasons, spent six of those with Cincinnati. "Today is one of the happiest and yet saddest days for me. Happy Coach Zimm finally gets to be a head coach and spread all of his knowledge," cornerback Terence�Newman tweeted. The Bengals were third in the league in yards allowed and fifth in points against this season, though they lost in the first round of the playoffs for the third straight year. "Gonna miss you coach Zimmer! Wish you nothing but the best in Minnesota. You brought out the best in each of your players! So honoured to have been coached by you!" tweeted linebacker Rey�Maualuga. Zimmer replaces Leslie Frazier, another former Bengals defensive co-ordinator who was fired Dec. 30 after the team finished 5-10-1 this season. General manager Rick Spielman interviewed at least seven candidates. He and Vikings owners Zygi Wilff and Mark Wilf settled on the one who was widely considered around the league to be the most overdue for a head coaching job. cheap jerseys from china. Zimmer has interviewed for several vacancies in recent years, including this month with Tennessee. The 57-year-old Zimmer played at Illinois State and spent 14 seasons coaching in the college ranks before being hired in 1994 as an assistant with Dallas. He got a Super Bowl ring the following season as defensive backs coach. Then he became defensive co-ordinator of the Cowboys in 2000 and spent seven seasons at that post, the last four under coach Bill Parcells. Zimmer led defences in Dallas that operated in both the 4-3 and 3-4 alignments, including the 2003 group that surrendered the fewest yards in the league. The Wilfs, natives of New Jersey, grew up as New York Giants fans and are admirers of Parcells from his days coaching that team. After one tumultuous year as the defensive co-ordinator for Atlanta, when Falcons coach Bobby Petrino quit midseason in 2007, Zimmer went to Cincinnati to work for coach Marvin Lewis. In 2009, when his wife, Vikki, unexpectedly died, Zimmer was named the winner of several NFL assistant coach of the year awards. Zimmer has a fiery personality, as evidenced by his profanity-laced appearances on HBOs "Hard Knocks," which featured the Bengals in 2009 and 2013. That overt intensity is a contrast to Frazier, who went 21-33-1 in three-plus seasons with one appearance in the playoffs. Frazier was a popular figure in the locker room and throughout the organization, but as a former defensive coach his area of expertise became the teams biggest downfall. Despite a carousel at quarterback, the aged, injury-depleted defence was mostly responsible for the sorry showing this season. The Vikings allowed an average of 30 points per game, the most in the league, and 397.8 yards per game, the second-most. Five of the seven reported candidates who interviewed for the vacancy had defensive backgrounds: Seattle defensive co-ordinator Dan Quinn, Cleveland defensive co-ordinator Ray Horton, Arizona defensive co-ordinator Todd Bowles, San Francisco defensive line coach Jim Tomsula and Zimmer. The other two were offensive co-ordinators: Seattles Darrell Bevell and San Franciscos Greg Roman. cheap jerseys ' ' '

Got a question on rule clarification, comments on rule enforcements or some memorable NHL stories? Kerry wants to answer your emails at cmonref@tsn. jerseys from china .ca! Hi Kerry, Last night, during the Anaheim Ducks-Colorado Avalanche game, there was definitely some really heated exchange between Patrick�Roy and Bruce Boudreau. Do you have any memorable stories where a head coach goes after the head coach of the other team and you had to intervene? Jason Bouchard,Toronto, Ontario Jason: Patrick�Roy made quite an impression in his NHL coaching debut beyond just the Avs 6-1 home victory over Bruce Boudreau and the Anaheim Ducks. If Patricks fiery history is any indicator rest assured this wont be the last outburst we see from the new bench boss. Every coach brings a unique personality, style and level of emotion to the job. Often we can look back to the type of players they were and the reputation they earned to indicate what to expect when they step behind the bench. Who can forget the Red Wings-Avalanche rivalry that qualified as hatred for one another following Claude�Lemieuxs hit from behind on Kris�Draper?� No Saint Patrick went toe-to-toe with Mike�Vernon and Chris�Osgood in addition to a dust-up with Dominik�Hasek that was prevented only from becoming a main event by the linesmen. No one can dispute the fact that Patrick�Roy is a proven winner and champion and one of the best to ever play the game but he also brought nastiness to his game that I saw firsthand on more than one occasion. I was the referee in Patricks final game as a Montreal Canadien when Scotty Bowmans Red Wings lit him up for nine goals. Habs Coach Mario Tremblay gave the future Hall of Fame goalie the hook after Sergei Federov scored the ninth goal midway through the second period. I saw both the pride and venom in his eyes when he walked the length of the bench to have words with Tremblay and team president Ronald Corey. In Colorado one night, I was skating backwards at full speed and crossing over behind the net on a dump-in when Patrick stepped out his crease and slew-footed me with an extended pad at the goal line causing me to go airborne into the end boards. As I flew through the air I tucked my chin to my chest to protect my helmetless head from becoming the principal point of contact with the boards. My angry threat of a 20-game suspension prompted a line of defence from the goalie that it was just an "accident." That was, until I reminded Patrick that I had witnessed him do the very same thing to Referee Brad Watson in a game earlier that week! As coach of the Quebec Ramparts, his intensity, emotional outbursts and altercations are well-documented. We shouldnt expect anything different from Patrick�Roy in his new location behind the Avs bench. He will still be a winner and he will still wear his emotions on his sleeve. Bruce Boudreau on the other hand was a slick, skilled centre who earned his nickname, "Gabby" for being the consummate talker. Thats putting it politely - the fact is, he never shut up! Gabby and I had many conversations on the ice when he was a player. I can see how the perfect storm resulted last night in Colorado when these two personalities collided at the end of the game. Looking back on the different personalities that I dealt with, I understood that as a player, Glen Sather got under the skin of his opponents with a sharp tongue and wit. Slats demonstrated the same style as a successful coach with the Edmonton Oilers. Many times I had to warn him not to taunt opposing players that would ultimately result in a confrontation with the other coach. Most often I had to suppress a laugh at some of the things that came out of Sathers mouth. As a young contracted NHL referee in 1974, I was assigned to swings through the WHL. Pat "Patty" Ginnell was a notorious coach whose teams terrorized opponents. Bobby Clarke, Reggie Leach, Kim Clackson and many other players graduated from Pattys stable. Ginnell had moved from Flin Flon to coach the Victoria Cougars when I was pressed into action one night. The Edmonton Oil Kings were the guests when a line brawl erupted followed by the benches clearing. As I was sorting out penalties I noticed coach Ginnell step onto the ice with a stick in his hand and was approaching Oil Kings coach Ken Hodge. Hodge remained on the Oil bench, but reached into the stick rack to arm himself against the impending attack. I intercepted Ginnell with the stick raised over his head, just 10 feet from Ken Hodge. I was able to talk Ginnell down before ejecting him from the game. The threat was real - and it was scary. I dont think I ever saw another coach that could get under the skin of his opposing bench boss the way Scotty Bowman could unhinge Marc Crawford, especially in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Scotty was the master of game day antics. The Avs visiting team dressing room door was painted in the afternoon with toxic enamel and greeted Crawford and his players when they arrived prior to game time on one occasion. I could smell the paint from ice-level near the Avs bench! On another occasion, the length of the players bench length was altered. When asked, Scotty would calmly reply he knew nothing of it and was just part of regularly scheduled building maintenance! In what was already powder keg matchups between the Wings and the Avalanche, Marc would scream with neck veins bulging at Scotty from a position where the two benches would meet. Once again, Scotty would have that calm little smirk on his face that would infuriate Crow all the more. When these dustups happened, my objective was to try and calm Marc since Scotty already had ice water running through his veins (and often ice cubes in his mouth from the bucket). I told Crow one time on the bench not to let Scotty get to him so much because he was playing right into the Masters hands. Like he did as a Hall of Fame goalie, Patrick�Roy established himself and made a mark in his first game as an NHL coach with a well-deserved win and a game misconduct/ejection at the 20:00 minute mark. I wouldnt have expected much less from Saint Patrick.� cheap jerseys from china . Olivieri, at city hall to help kick off ticket sales for the Aug. 5-24 event to be held in four Canadian cities, said Wednesday that Canada has a new generation of talent on the rise that can make its name just as Sinclair did at the same event in 2002 in Edmonton. cheap jerseys . Olivieri, at city hall to help kick off ticket sales for the Aug. 5-24 event to be held in four Canadian cities, said Wednesday that Canada has a new generation of talent on the rise that can make its name just as Sinclair did at the same event in 2002 in Edmonton.KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Luke�Hochevar was taken aback when he walked into the managers office one day and manager Ned Yost and the Royals coaches started trying to convince him to make a change. Simplify your approach, they said. Use your three core pitches. It took a while for Hochevar to buy in. Now the change is paying off. The mercurial right-hander struck out eight in his second career shutout, and the Kansas City offence made sure to come through in an 8-0 rout of the Tampa Bay Rays on Monday night. "I guess I have to come up with a better word than fantastic, tremendous and great. He was phenomenal," Yost said. "The results have been dramatically improved since he got back to his three core pitches. Hes starting to show exactly what he can do." His arsenal pared down to primarily a four-seam fastball, curveball and change-up, Hochevar (5-7) mowed through a weak-hitting Tampa Bay lineup for his first shutout since Sept. 18, 2009. Now, the pitcher who was allowing nearly a run per inning earlier in the year has gone 16 2-3 scoreless innings, and is starting to resembled a former No. 1 overall draft pick. "That was a great outing by Hoch," said Eric�Hosmer, who tacked on a homer in the eighth inning to finish off the scoring. "He was in the zone, he was pounding pitches. He was great." Alcides�Escobar and Alex�Gordon both had three hits for the Royals, who were coming off an embarrassing sweep at the hands of St. Louis in which they were outscored 30-14 and burned through their bullpen -- which made the start by Hochevar all the more impressive. No Royals starter had even gone eight innings so far this season. "If you dont get him early and permit him to settle in, he gets better," Rays manager Joe Maddon said. "He was all over us tonight" Alex�Cobb (3-4) also managed to throw a complete game, the first of his career, though it wasnt nearly as impressive: He allowed 13 hits while falling to 1-4 in his last five starts. "In the first few innings, I just felt uncomfortable out there," he said. "Everything they were hitting was dropping. Unfortunately, they were falling everywhere." The banged-up Rays came into the game riding plenty of momentum after a double-header sweep of Philadelphia, whille the Royals limped in after their rough series against the Cardinals. nfl jerseys china. Somebody must have flipped the script. It was Kansas City that came out swinging from the start, with Gordons leadoff double setting up an RBI double by Mike�Moustakas when the ball bounced off right fielder Ben�Zobrists glove and over his head after he appeared to briefly lose it in the setting sun. Cobb worked through a perfect second inning before coming unglued in the third. It started with Escobars bunt single and a base hit by Gordon, and included a wild pitch that plate umpire Todd Tichenor accidentally kicked away from catcher Jose�Molina, allowing both of the runners to advance. Betancourt followed with a two-run single. Billy�Butler came to the plate with one out and added a single, and Jeff�Francoeur followed with an RBI single in which Butler was thrown out trying to reach third. Hosmer contributed an RBI single, and Salvador�Perez added another run-scoring single, though he was cut down to end the inning after making a wide turn around first. The inning ended after five runs on seven singles in a span of only eight batters. The Royals added another run on Betancourts sacrifice fly in the fourth inning, and Hosmer went deep in the eighth, though both runs were moot the way Hochevar was dealing. He got some help from double plays in the first and seventh innings, but otherwise took care of things himself. He worked a perfect second and sixth, and came back from consecutive base hits to start the fifth with three consecutive strikeouts. It was the first time he had gone eight innings since last Sept. 3 against Cleveland. This time, Hochevar managed to finish things off. "I dont think you ever have it figured out, because hitters adjust, the game is always changing," he said. "I know what Im focusing on now, though, and thats going to be consistent." Notes: Hochevar had been 0-4 at home this season. ... Rays 1B Carlos�Pena went 0 for 3, dropping his average to .197. DH Hideki�Matsui went 0 for 4 and is hitting .159. ... Royals RHP Roman�Colon was assigned outright to Triple-A Omaha. ... LHP Matt�Moore starts Tuesday night for Tampa Bay. LHP Bruce�Chen goes for Kansas City. ...

PHILADELPHIA -- Nick�Foles, youre up. nfl jerseys china . Foles returned to practice Tuesday for the first time since sustaining a concussion in Philadelphias 17-3 loss to Dallas on Oct. 20. With Michael�Vick sidelined by a hamstring injury, Foles will likely start for the Eagles (3-5) at Oakland (3-4) this week unless he has a setback in his recovery. "I cleared everything and I feel good," Foles said. "I felt good out there today. It was a long week last week, but the most important thing was getting healthy. I had a lot of support, and I feel great. It was great to get back out there with the team and I feel like we had a good day today." Foles had to pass the ImPACT concussion test and receive clearance from an independent neurologist before returning to the field. He was hurt in his second start filling in for Vick, who re-injured his left hamstring in the first half of a 15-7 loss to the New York Giants on Sunday. "There were definitely symptoms, but Im healthy now and thats the most important thing," Foles said. "Its very tough. Theres a lot of adversity, but Ive always had my family there. "They were great with supporting me. A concussion is not something that you want to go through, but they were great to support me. My teammates were great and the coaching staff was too. A week later, I feel great and feel healthy. It was great being back out there and Im excited to just keep going." Matt�Barkley finished off each of the past two games, and the rookie shared first-team snaps with Foles in practice. Foles played well after replacing Vick late in the second quarter of a 36-21 win at the Giants on Oct. 6. He was the NFC Player of the Week for his performance in a 31-20 win at Tampa Bay the following week. But Foles struggled against the Cowboys. He completed just 11 of 29 passes for 80 yards before getting hurt on the last play of the third quarter. "Hes had a chance to look through the game. Weve gone through the details of the good, the bad and the ugly, and hes ready to move forward," offensive co-ordinator Pat Shurmur said. "Some of those plays specifically weve talked about why. But then of course there are times when you just miss throws, and he missed more than his share." The Eagles have lost two in a row and are one game behind the Cowboys (4-4) in the NFC East. china jerseys .

He came up just short. Seven wins, no title. Small consolation. Kenseths first year with Joe Gibbs Racing was a smashing success except for winning a championship to bookend with the one he has from 2003. Kenseth found the hard way that wins are nice, but winning it all matters more. Headed into Sundays race at Pocono Raceway, Kenseth is atop the points standings but the only driver in the top nine without at least one checkered flag. NASCAR revamped the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship format this year to add great significance to winning a race in the first 26 before the cutoff. Kenseth would be a lock for the field with a victory. Without one, Kenseth might have to hope he keeps his points lead: The regular-season leader earns a spot even with a winless season. Kenseth has won 13 races the last three years and it seems inevitable hell find his way in Victory Lane soon enough. He has never won at Pocono, but has two career wins at next weeks track (Michigan) and hes won three times at Bristol (Aug. 23). Hed surrender the lead for taking the No. 20 Toyota for a spin in Victory Lane soon. "Youd rather have a win at this time of year than be the points leader," he said. "Its definitely different. We knew it was a radical change, but youre sitting here because youre the points leader but you open up the paper and they dont have you in the top-10. Its a little bit confusing at times. So yeah, hopefully we can get a win." Kenseth joins the rest of the field in trying to race his way past Jimmie Johnson. The six-time champion iis coming off back-to-back victories in the Coca-Cola 600 and at Dover International Speedway and will try to win three straight for the first time since 2007. cheap nfl jerseys. . Steady as always, Kenseth has been in the hunt for several wins. He just cant find that one edge that will get him one. He has five top-five finishes and 10 top-10s in 13 races for a 9.2 average finish. Hes finished third in each of the last two races. "People always ask about changing your strategies or trying harder or doing this or doing that, but if it was that easy, youd win every week," he said "Ive never not wanted to win. If there was a way to force wins, Id force it every week." With half the season left before the Chase field is set, Kenseth isnt worried too much about his winless season. Former champion Tony Stewart also is winless. So are Kasey Kahne, Clint Bowyer and Ryan Newman, on the outside of the Chase and in a lot worse shape. "I think there has been a touch of bad luck and then we just havent put together full races," Kahne said. "Weve had great practices over the last month, maybe a little more than that. Weve been really good in practice; great at times during the race, but we havent put together the full race." Kenseth isnt quite sure why the No. 20 has yet to come close to matching last seasons success. "If we knew exactly that, it would be a lot easier to fix," he said. "Theres been times you get pretty good car balance, but you havent had the speed. You always try to look over everything and look over how you get your vehicles setup better, how you can get your aero setup better, how you can get your engines better." cheap jerseys ' ' '

SAN DIEGO -- Andrew�Cashner is "totally aware" the San Diego Padres have never had a no-hitter in their mostly sad-sack history, which has now reached 46 seasons and 7,176 games. cheap jerseys . After throwing his second one-hitter in a span of five starts, the big Texan is the leading candidate to end that drought. "Thats one of my goals. I definitely want a no-hitter," Cashner said after allowing just one single and striking out 11 in a 6-0 victory against the Detroit Tigers on Friday night. "I dont think theres any reason why I cant build off this. When you get late in a game and your pitch counts high, youve really got to bear down and grind through. I think this will build toward something down the road." Cashner took a no-hitter into the sixth inning before Rajai�Davis hit a one-out flare single into centre field, just past the glove of outstretched second baseman Jedd�Gyorko. Davis stole second and third, and Ian�Kinsler walked before Miguel�Cabrera hit into a double play. Cashner ended his remarkable outing by striking out Cabrera, the AL MVP in 2012 and 2013, on a 95-mph fastball. On Sept. 16 at Pittsburgh, the right-hander carried a perfect game into the seventh inning and faced the minimum 27 batters in a one-hitter. He retired his first 18 batters before Jose�Tabata grounded a clean single into right field leading off the seventh. Cashner said Friday nights one-hitter meant more. "Just with the guys in their lineup, it was a lot bigger game. Theyve got a heck of a team over there. A lot of guys can hit the ball out of the park." Chase�Headley hit a two-run homer and finished with three RBIs. Cashner (1-1) retired 14 in a row before allowing the single. He walked two. "I felt as good as Ive felt in a while," he said. "Im conditioned to run the bases and to be a complete ballplayer." Manager Bud Black said Cashner was so good because of "tremendous movement with command" of his fastball. That was a well-pitched game. Well-pitched. As good as youre going to see." Five of his strikeouts were looking, including all three in the third, when he caught pitcher Rick�Porcello, Davis and Kinsler looking at strike three. "He was just beating guys with his velocity. They just couldnt get the head out front," Black said. "But when you have a pitcher hitting the glove for called third strikes, and you see the look on the hitters, and I saw that early on, I knew he had a good feel for his fastball." Dating to Aug. 19, Cashner has allowed two or fewer earned runs in nine straight starts for an ERA of 0.96. "He pitched outstanding," said Brad�Ausmus, who worked in San Diegos front office before being hired as Detroits manager in early November. "Hes always been a hard thrower. He located extremely well. His slider was extremely effective, his changeup. I know hes not a household name, but I know what h is capable of." The Padres hit Porcello hard, collecting 10 hits in his 6 1-3 innings. He left after Cashner singled. The Padres were onto Porcello from the start. Everth�Cabrera hit a leadoff single, advanced on two groundouts and scored on Gyorkos triple. The ball hit the heel of right fielder Don�Kellys glove and hit the ground as Kelly slammed headfirst into the wall. After being checked by a trainer, Kelly stayed in the game. Headley then doubled into the left-centre gap to bring in Gyorko. Headley homered to right on a 2-2 slider from Porcello with one out in the sixth, his first. It was estimated at 385 feet. Seth�Smith was aboard on a leadoff double. Porcello (1-1) allowed five runs and struck out five. "There were a couple of balls up in the zone that the Padres hitters took advantage of," Ausmus said. "But he kept us in the game. Its really more about the way Cashner pitched more than anything else." NOTES: Padres CF Cameron�Maybin, who ruptured his left biceps tendon making a diving catch in a spring game on March 2, began a rehab assignment with Triple-A El Paso. Manager Bud Black said hed like Maybin to get more than 20 at-bats during the assignment. "Right now hes restarting his spring training," Black said. "Hes in baseball shape. Now weve got to get him in baseball-ready shape." ... Black said pitcher Josh�Johnson, whos also on the DL, still has soreness in his forearm. ...

MILWAUKEE -- Jean�Segura smiled in his first game at Miller Park since returning to the Milwaukee Brewers following the death of his 9-month-old son. wholesale nfl jerseys . The shortstop still grieves, but it will be nights like the one Segura had in a 5-2 victory Monday over the Cincinnati Reds that will provide some distraction. Segura went 2 for 3 with a triple and scored two runs, and Milwaukee took advantage of two misjudged balls in the outfield by Chris�Heisey to hand Cincinnati its fourth straight loss. "It was a tough week for me, and for my family, too," Segura said. "I (came) here, worked, trying to do the best I can to help the team." The 24-year-old Segura took bereavement leave after learning of son Janniels death following a 7-6 loss on July 11 to the St. Louis Cardinals. He went home to the Dominican Republic before returning to the club after the All-Star break for the weekend series in Washington. Segura said he wasnt nervous coming back to play before his hometown fans. Manager Ron Roenicke said he thought Segura was back mentally into the game. "Hes still going to have those times when he thinks about it, but I liked when he first came back," Roenicke said. "I thought it was really important for him to know that the team was behind him." Wily�Peralta (11-6) allowed three hits, including Billy�Hamiltons solo homer, in seven innings. Francisco�Rodriguez threw a 1-2-3 ninth for his 29th save. Cincinnatis Mat�Latos (2-2) gave up four earned runs and eight hits in seven innings. It could have been a much closer game had Heisey made those two plays in left. The lights were on at Miller Park for an evening game that started under overcast skies, though Heisey seemed to be most bothered by the conditions. "Tonight was just one of those nights where I didnt have a very good day," Heisey said. Three runs scored on the two plays. In the third, Ryan�Braun hit a two-run double that Heisey took a couple of steps in on before retreating as the high liner went over his head. The four-year veteran with 134 career starts in left field lost Carlos�Gomezs high fly ball to the warning track in the fourth inning that turned into an RBI ground-rule double that made it 4-0. Arms turned upward near his waist, Heisey looked lost as the ball bounced a couple of feet away. Heisey tried to reach for the ball as it caromed over the wall, and Segura scored from second on a play that could have gotten Latos out of the inning. "I ended up running to a perfect spot, just couldnt pick the ball back up when I turned my head," Heisey said. "It just disappeared into the bluish-white sky. I couldnt find the ball." Gomez then scored on an error by Donald�Lutz, subbing for the injured Joey�Votto at first base. An errant relay throw by second baseman Ramon�Santiago in the third inning allowed Segura, who had tripled, to score. Segura, who has been struggling all season at the plate, has his average back up to .236. He has been driving the ball more of late. "Ive been working at it all year long. Its going to come," he said. The Reds lost again after resuming the season with a three-game sweep by the New York Yankees. Manager Bryan�Price was ejected Monday in the sixth inning by home plate umpire David Rackley after Devin�Mesoraco got into a heated argument over a called third strike on a checked swing. NOTES: Reds OF Jay�Bruce, in an 0-for-15 slump, got the night off. ... The last four homers hit by Hamilton have come against the Brewers. ...

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- The next time Aaron�Rodgers steps under centre, it will have been 20 days since he last played for the Green Bay Packers. Rodgers sat out the regular-season finale against Detroit, and Green Bay gets a bye in this weekends wild card round after earning the No. 1 seed in the NFC. The Packers will host a divisional round game Jan. 15. For Rodgers, the opportunity to rest outweighs everything else. "Im not too worried about rust or anything," Rodgers said Thursday. "Its not that big of a deal, I dont think. You take some time off in the preseason, you dont play a lot in the first game or the fourth game, so theres breaks in there. "You just have to stay mentally sharp. I think thats the most important thing. You want to stay up on your conditioning. So make sure I do that, got to take a lot of (practice) reps the last couple days so I feel good about where Im at. Im not worried about getting back out there." Coach Mike McCarthy found a way to help Rodgers stay mentally sharp during the season-ending 45-41 victory over Detroit. With backup Matt�Flynn starting in Rodgers place, McCarthy had Rodgers call some plays. "Its nerve-racking," Rodgers said. "Its a lot more nerve-racking than playing, to be honest. "Matt can attest to that. I was a little bit nervous in the locker room knowing that I was probably going to get a chance to get some calls in there. But when youve got a quarterback thats in the zone and hot, it makes it a whole lot easier." Flynn certainly was. He broke Packers records for yards passing (480) and touchdown passes (six) in a game. It was a big day for Flynn, who could become a free agent at the end of the season and is likely to attract interest from other teams. "It was fun," Rodgers said. "Me and Matt spent some time together making sure we were on the same page and knowing kind of what he was comfortable with. "I dont want to take too much credit because he played incredible. It wasnt like I was out there making some amazing calls. I was making some stuff that he liked and he made it work." Now its time for Rodgers to get ready for a playoff opponent yet to be determined. Rodgers said he will watch this weekends games on television, even if it isnt as valuable as the game film the Packers will see early next week. "Its hard now bbeing in the league seven years not to watch a game and kind of take mental notes and look at different things with what youre seeing on TV," Rodgers said. cheap jerseys from china. "Obviously, its a little different than what youre seeing through film, but Im a fan like the rest of us. "Ill pay attention to it. Im not sure if Ill watch the whole game. Ill be interested for sure." McCarthy will be watching, too. "Its important to see the game live," McCarthy said. "Ive always felt if you had the opportunity, that theres some things you can get off TV that you can probably apply to your film study. "Ill sit and watch the Saints and Lions on Saturday night. Well be working Sunday as a staff so were going to come in here and watch Sundays game, if needed." And while the Packers already have faced and beaten Atlanta, Detroit and the New York Giants this season, McCarthy doesnt seem to believe that will be a huge advantage. "I think maybe some people like playing a team for the second or third time," McCarthy said. "Ive always felt, based on our coaching staff, I feel we do a very good job against opponents when we play them for the first time. "I feel like weve given our players an edge; thats just a feeling just because of the way that we operate offensively and defensively. I think itd be a challenge if youre going to play us for the first time on a seven-day week. On the other side of it, theres the personnel matchups that youre in tune with because you have played the other opponent and things you may not have done a good enough job matchup-wise in the first game that you can try to prevent the second game. It could go either way." Players were off starting Thursday afternoon and will be back at work Monday. And when they do get back, Rodgers wants them to rediscover the sense of urgency that carried them through last years playoffs -- even if their situation is far different this year as a No. 1 seed and Super Bowl favourite. "I think the way we handle it will kind of be demonstrated by how we handle this weekend," Rodgers said. "Everybodys going to do different things to get away, refresh mentally and physically, but I think as professionals we need to make sure we come back Monday with that extra sense of urgency. "Thats kind of what separated us last year." cheap jerseys ' ' '

Dallas (42-28) got a boost in the playoff race when Miami rallied from seven down in the last 3 1/2 minutes to beat Memphis 91-86 Friday night.

Beijing, China (SportsNetwork. jerseys from china .com) - Reigning champion and three-time overall titlist Novak Djokovic and red-hot superstar Rafael Nadal were a pair of quarterfinal winners Friday at the $2.315 million China Open. The top-seeded world No. 1 Djokovic cut down 6-foot-6 American Sam Querrey 6-1, 6-2 in a mere 52 minutes, while the second-seeded former No. 1 Nadal came from behind to beat pesky Italian Fabio Fognini 2-6, 6-4, 6-1 on the hardcourts at the National Tennis Center. Nadal was one point away from trailing Fognini 2-6, 1-5 on Day 5 before mounting a dramatic comeback. The U.S. and French Open champion Nadal would supplant Djokovic atop the mens rankings with a victory over Tomas Berdych here on Saturday. The super Spaniard already owns a whopping 10 titles on tour this year and is currently riding a 20-match winning streak. "Its something that doesnt create more pressure for me," Nadal said. "Its something that already happened in the past. If that happens again, it will be good, it will be special for me, but well see. "I am going to have a very tough opponent in front of me. In the end, its another match. True, its a little bit more special for the circumstances, but nothing else. Its the semi-final match of a big tournament, I am going to try to be competitive and try to play my best tennis. If not, I am going to have no chance to be through. It is not the moment to think about No. 1; it is the moment to think about Berdych." Nadal is a dominant 15-3 lifetime against Berdych, who lost to the mighty Spaniard in the 2010 Wimbledon final. Nadal is 3-0 versus the Czech slugger this season. The 13-time Grand Slam champion Nadal, who was the China Open champ back in 2005, was last ranked No. 1 in July of 2011.

Jonathan�Bernier made 33 saves and the Maple Leafs beat the Tampa Bay Lightning 4-1 on Thursday night. The second-place Lightning have a one-point lead over Toronto and Montreal, which beat Vancouver 5-2. "The last week and a half (has been tough)," said Tampa Bay coach Jon Cooper, whose team has lost four of five. "I dont mind where we are in the standings as of today. We kind of built a bulge in the standings, point-wise, and now weve lost some of it. But in saying that, I rather be where we are right now than where some other teams are." Mason�Raymond, Jay�McClement, James�van�Riemsdyk and Tyler�Bozak scored for Toronto, which was coming of a 4-1 loss Tuesday night at Florida. "We needed a response from our effort the other night, and we got it tonight," Maple Leafs coach Randy Carlyle said. "If you dont have goaltending, you dont have a starting point in the NHL. Were not any different than any other hockey club. The goaltender is your last line of defence, and our guys have given us a chance for a better part of this year." The Maple Leafs are 10-2-1 over their last 13 games. "We want to finish strong before the (Olympic) break with as many points as possible," Bernier said. Bernier had a number of strong saves early when Tampa Bay dominated the first half of the first period, and he made a glove save on J.T.�Brown during the second. "It didnt look like we had it early, and once again Bernie was ready to play and kept us in it," McClement said. "Then we were able to get our legs." Ondrej�Palat had the lone goal for Tampa Bay. Lightning goalie Ben�Bishoop left after two periods with an upper-body injury and was replaced by Cedrick�Desjardins, and centre Valtteri�Filppula also left due to a lower-body injury. cheap jerseys. Desjardins is filling in for backup Anders�Lindback, who is sidelined by a lower-body injury. Both Bishop and Filppula will be evaluated Friday. McClement made it 2-0 on an in-close backhander that eluded Desjardins at 2:19 of the third. After Desjardins make a glove save a couple of minutes later on Troy�Bodies breakaway shot, the Maple Leafs turned an errant pass by the Lightning into a 3-0 advantage on van Riemsdyks point-blank goal at 8:10. Bozak added an empty-net goal with 2:52 to play. Palat ended Berniers shutout bid and cut Tampa Bays deficit to 3-1 at 10:28 of the third. There was a scrum between the teams with 1:42 remaining after a Toronto defender made contact with Brown, who ended up colliding with Bernier. Five players received penalties on the play. Raymond opened the scoring 7:57 into the second when he skated in alone from the left wing boards and lifted a backhander over Bishop. Bishop kept the Lightning within a goal when he stopped a shot during a breakaway by Bozak with 4 minutes left in the second. The Maple Leafs, despite allowing eight of the first nine shots, outshot Tampa Bay 12-9 during a scoreless first period. NOTES: Tampa Bay RW Martin�St.�Louis will replace injured Lightning C Steven�Stamkos on Canadas Olympic hockey team. Doctors ruled out Stamkos because he hasnt recovered sufficiently from a broken right leg. ...

TORONTO -- Showing that life in the NHL isnt always about five-star hotels or designer suits, Leafs coach Randy Carlyle found himself in a Swiss Chalet in Parry Sound, Ont. wholesale nfl jerseys ., on Boxing Day. And while his players were with family and friends, likely away from the limelight, Carlyle was hard to miss among those ordering a quarter-chicken dinner. "Some fan walks by and says Hey Carlyle, you better get those Leafs going," Carlyle said Friday with a smile. "Everybody in the Swiss Chalet knew I was there so I guess I didnt get away from it (hockey)." For his players, hockey had been on the backburner, at least for a day or two. "It was nice to have a break, physically and mentally," winger Joffrey�Lupul said ahead of Friday nights game against the visiting Buffalo Sabres. "It (December) was a tough month for us, record-wise and just schedule, travel-wise. So hopefully a couple of days rest is what we needed and we are able to put together some wins here." "Christmas break, you kind of recharge and refuel and re-energize and get ready to push through to the finish," said captain Dion�Phaneuf. "Everybody came back rested, got to spend some time with their families and friends over the holidays and thats what its about," he added. "Now were back to work tonight and weve got to focus on getting our game back to where we want it to be." The Leafs (18-16-5) are coming off shootout losses to the Rangers and Red Wings. Toronto has just one regulation win in its last 18 outings (5-9-4). The Sabres desperately needed the break. A bout of flu meant interim coach Ted Nolan was able to dress just 16 players Monday against Phoenix. Having their Rochester Americans farm team in Switzerland at the Spengler Cup didnt help matters. "They look a lot better today, so thats good," Nolan said Friday of his Sabres." Centre Cody�Hodgson, sidelined after blocking a shot, is still not ready to return, however. The goalie matchup Friday appeared to be Jonathan�Bernier for the Leafs against Ryan�Miller of the Sabres. Carlyle said the Christmas break seemed to have been worthwhile, pointing to the energy he saw from his team in the morning skate. "We all felt pretty good out there this morning," defenceman Cody�Franson concurred. "It was nice to have a couple of days (off)." Still, as Swiss Chalet showed, its hard to hide from hockey. "But you never really truly forget about it because its always in the back of your mind to some degree," Carlyle said. "We just hope we can take some of that energy that we had this morning and transfer it into tonights hockey game. "These games are a different games, Im going to tell you. You never know what youre going to get off of three days (rest) and one morning skate. Im sure all the coaches in the leagues are saying the same thing." At 10-24-3, the Sabres sit at the bottom of the NHL. But they are on a mini-streak, having won three of their last four and have gone 4-4-2 in their last 10 games. Toronto is 3-5-2 over the same period. Luck may also be finally on the Sabres side. Buffalo won last time out via a bizarre overtime goal against Phoenix that saw the puck fly into the air and land in the back of Coyotes goalie Mike�Smiths pants. An unknowing Smith slid backwards into the goal, taking the puck with him for a 2-1 Buffalo win Monday. There could be more mayhem in front of goal Friday, with six-foot-eight, 259-pound tough guy John�Scott expected to see time on the power play in front of the Toronto net. The big man had 199 career NHL games under his belt going into Friday night. At the other end, the Leafs will likely need a plan of their own against a hot goalie. Miller is 4-1-0 in last five starts, with a 1.56 goals against average and .952 save percentage. He has not allowed a third-period goal during that run. He is also 2-0 against the Leafs this season and 31-15-1 overall against Toronto. Carlyle had not lost his sense of humour over the Christmas break. Did you miss us, was his first question from the media after the morning skate. "No I cant say I missed you," he replied to laughter. "I just didnt think about you." The media were back in their numbers Friday. Leafs TV, the teams house channel, had six people in the arena seats talking on TV during the skate. wholesale jerseys .

DAVIE, Fla. -- New Miami Dolphins general manager Dennis Hickey stepped to the microphone and apologized for his hoarse voice, explaining he wore it down in recent days trying to build a winner. Hickey then introduced a succession of big acquisitions in the first 24 hours of free agency -- 316-pound left tackle Branden�Albert, 300-pound defensive tackle Earl�Mitchell and 305-pound defensive tackle Randy�Starks. All signed Wednesday. Starks remained with the Dolphins after a brief stint as a free agent, signing a $12 million, two-year contract. He spent the past six seasons with the Dolphins, with only one playoff game during that time. "The moves we made so far just show were close to doing something special here, and trying to bring in some people to help us get over the hump," he said. The return of Starks, a two-time Pro Bowl player, and the addition of Mitchell compensate for the loss of defensive tackle Paul�Soliai, who joined the Atlanta Falcons after seven years with Miami. "Pauls a good player," Starks said. "He has been here a long time. Hell be well missed, but we have people who can step up." Hickeys shopping will continue, with additional offensive linemen, a tight end and a linebacker the most pressing needs. The Dolphins are trying to end a 13-year drought without a post-season victory, and theyre eager to put in the past their bullying scandal that involved tackle Jonathan�Martin. The acquisition of Albert was a step in that direction. Hell take over the position manned at the start of last season by Martin, who was traded late Tuesday to the San Francisco 49ers for an undisclosed draft choice. "Im going to be here to play left tackle and makee a difference," Albert said. cheap jerseys from china. "Thats the reason Im here. I feel like its a team I can help the most and make my legacy even better." Albert signed a $47 million, five-year deal that includes $26 million guaranteed. Dolphins officials, accompanied by a couple of players, treated Albert to dinner Tuesday night to celebrate the agreement. "Probably the happiest person at the dining room table was Ryan�Tannehill," Hickey said. "He was really excited to have a player of his calibre on our team." Albert will protect the blind side for Tannehill, who was sacked a franchise-record 58 times last year. Mitchell was also part of the dinner celebration after agreeing to a $16 million, four-year deal. Like Albert and Starks, Mitchell envisions better days ahead for the Dolphins. "Im coming to produce and definitely trying to help this team reach new heights," Mitchell said. "Thats my reason for being here. Im trying to get us to a Super Bowl." Mitchell blossomed in his fourth NFL season with the Houston Texans last year, when he became a starter and won raves for the way he clogged the middle. He has been playing defence only since his junior year at the University of Arizona, and he and Hickey both said hes still improving. Alberts reputation has also been on the rise, and he made the Pro Bowl last year with the Kansas City Chiefs. He has had a home the past three offseasons 45 minutes from the Dolphins complex and will now move north, eager to go to work with his new team. "I live in downtown Miami, but I probably wont anymore because of the commute," he said with a smile. "Ive got to find a place close to the facility." cheap jerseys ' ' '

But more than that, Petersens departure also means the end of an era in college football. During his eight-year run on the blue turf of Bronco Stadium, nobody won more games than Petersen. His 92-12 record is unmatched from 2006 to 2013. He led the Broncos to five 12-win seasons, and took home five conference titles. Under Petersens tutelage, Boise State didnt just win; they went from mid-major, to BCS buster, to national power. Petersen announced Boise States arrival at the 2007 Fiesta Bowl. In a game that included both a statue of liberty play, and a hook and ladder, and ended with a marriage proposal, BSU stunned Oklahoma 43-42 in overtime to cap an undefeated season. The Broncos became just the second non-AQ school to win a BCS bowl, and finished No. 5 in the AP Top 25. In 2009 �Coach P� did it again, leading Boise State to the Fiesta bowl, beating TCU to finish undefeated. Petersen also led Boise State to victories over national powers like Oregon, Virginia Tech, and Georgia. He led BSU to eight-straight bowl games and led them to respect from the college football elite. In the season following their 2010 Fiesta Bowl win, Boise State debuted at No. 3 in the AP Top 25, the highest pre-season ranking for a non-AQ school in the BCS era. That year the Broncos would peak at No. 2 and were a missed overtime field goal away from a possible national championship berth. During the Petersen era, Boise State moved from the now defunct WAC to the MWC. They helped the MWC secure a new television contract worth a reported $116 million, and guaranteed themselves three home games a year with a national television audience. All this at a school that recruits two-star athletes, plays in a tiny 37,000-seat stadium - 84th largest in the NCAA - and resides in the 120th largest media market in America. Washington wasnt the first AQ program to show interest; Petersens name was a constant in almost any discussion of head coaching vacancies. Arkansas, USC, UCLA, and Stanford all came calling at one time or another. But Petersen always stayed, content to lead his program and raise his family in isolated Boise. That changed this year. The Broncos won just eight games, the lowest win total of Petersens eight-year tenure. Rampant conference realignment left the MWC substantially weaker than it was when the BSU joined in 2011. And with the college football playoff coming, it should be harder than ever for schools from non-power conferences to crash the party. So Petersen heads to Washington, a school with a long, proud history. He heads to a school that beat him twice in his time in Idaho, and one that ranks third all-time in Rose Bowl appearances.Its fitting that the man who defined the term BCS buster moves on as the BCS as we know it gets busted up once and for all. Some other notes from around college football: -When Michiggan State upset Ohio State, talk immediately turned to Auburn and the National Championship. wholesale jerseys. But lost in the BCS shuffle was how great the moment was for the Spartans. The last time MSU was in the Rose Bowl, 1988, most of the current Spartans hadnt even been born yet. After Oregons DeAnthony Thomas said the Rose Bowl was �not a big deal,� it was refreshing to see MSUs players acting excited to be heading to the grand-daddy of them all. -Despite stunning numbers, Fresno States Derek Carr didnt receive an invite to the Heisman ceremony on Saturday. Carr led FBS with 4,833 yards passing, and a ridiculous TD/INT ratio of 48/7. He also led the Bulldogs to an 11-1 record, and a win in the inaugural MWC championship. Brother of former first overall pick David Carr, Derek should take solace in the fact that he too should be a top-10 pick. -One of the strangest sights of the season had to be UCFs game against SMU last Saturday. With a blast of winter on the way, SMU officials offered free admission to Gerald Ford Stadium. But after temperatures dipped to -5 C at kickoff - the coldest home game in SMU history - almost nobody showed up.

Irsays attorneys filed a motion Wednesday waiving his appearance on misdemeanour charges of driving while intoxicated and driving with a Schedule I or II controlled substance in his body. Myra Borshoff Cook, a spokeswoman for Irsay, had no immediate comment. The charges against Irsay carry maximum penalties of 60 days in jail and $500 fines for each count. Hamilton County court documents say Irsay was driving under the influence of prescription painkillers. Irsay, 54, was arrested near his home in suburban Carmel on March 16 after police say he was spotted driving slowly, stopping in the roadway and failing to use a turn signal. Police said he failed field sobriety tests and ann officer believed him to be intoxicated, but not on alcohol. Clinton McDonald Jersey. . Various prescription drugs were found in his vehicle. Attorney Steven Stoesz, who often handles similar cases, said waivers are not uncommon in misdemeanour cases where a defendant has bonded out of jail and retained an attorney. "The purpose of an initial hearing is for the court to advise a person of the charges they are facing, of their constitutional rights and to set future court dates," Stoesz told The Indianapolis Star (http://indy.st/1ngp2n8). Retaining an attorney essentially lets the court know you are aware of your rights and the charges against you, he said. The next hearing on Irsays case will likely come within 30 days, but Stoesz said that meeting may involve only lawyers and the judge and Irsay may not attend. cheap jerseys ' ' '

Anaheim Ducks 5 Winnipeg Jets 4 OT � (Jets 33-33-10, Road 16-18-4)? Some wins are better than others, and some losses are tougher than others. Cam Newton Jersey . The Jets jumped on the Ducks right off the opening face-off and heading into the later stages of the second period had a 4-0 lead. But the Ducks showed why they are one of the elite teams in the NHL. Jacob Trouba opened the scoring 8:48 of the first, Michael Frolik and Bryan Little with the assists. Little extends his point streak to six games (2-5-7). Trouba jumped in from the line and beat Frederik Andersen glove side for his ninth of the year. Matt Halischuk followed that up with his fifth of the year and second in as many games, assists to Evander Kane and Eric ODell. Kane has only two goals in his last 19 games, but is 2-4-6 in the last eight. Shots in the first were 19-4 Jets. The Jets started the second on the power play and 33 seconds in, Blake Wheeler on one of his left wing rushes, drove to the net and found the far side to make it 3-0. It was Wheelers 27th of the year, and eighth power play goal of the year. It gives him 64 points on the season, and that ties a career high for points in a single season. Dustin Byfuglien with his 26th power play point on 39 power play goals, and Ondrej Pavelec drew assists. At 10:54 Eric Tangradi scored on a great pass from Zach Redmond to make it 4-0. It was his third of the season. Anthony Peluso had the second assist.? Then a couple of key turning points as Nick Bonino with his 20th got the Ducks on the board at 17:44, with Andersen then stopping Little on a breakaway keeping the Ducks to within three. Shots in the second were 12-7 Jets. The next turning point came early in the third as the Ducks went on the power play. Ryan Getzlaf with his 31st made it a 4-2 game, 1:10 later Hampus Lindholm made it a 4-3 game. The Ducks had the first 11 shots of the period. The game then settled down a bit, although Pavelec was forced to make a number of great saves to keep the Jets in front. With Andersen on the bench for the extra attacker, Corey Perry with is 39th tied the game at 19:37. Shots in the third were 24-6 Ducks. There was only one shot in overtime, as Stephane Robidas beat Pavelec through traffic to complete the comeback for the Ducks. The goal came 16 seconds into overtime.? The Jets were a dejected group after this loss. Final shots were 37-36 Jets. The Jets went 1-3 on the power play and have now scored five power play goals in the last four games, and are 12-57 over the last 17 games, for a success rate of 21%. It was the 43rd one goal game of the season. Kane led the team in shots on goal with five, Toby Enstrom led in ice time at 25:15. The Jets have only three wins in the last 14 games. They are 5-4 in games that end in the five minute overtime period. The Jets were minus Keaton Ellerby and Al Montoya, both banged up in the Los Angeles game Saturday and both listed day-to-day. With Pavelec just coming off injury and facing 24 shots and tons of traffic in the third, there might there be a chance Michael Hutchinson makes his Jets debut in Phoenix. �Awful, disappointing,� Paul Maurice said of the loss. �Its tough to lose a game like that. We stopped making plays. We moved the puck for two periods as good as we have moved it all year. We have to develop that confidence to continue to make plays. I never got the sense that we were looking to take the easy way out in the third. We just stopped making plays.� Jets will play their 9th set of back to back games Tuesday in Phoenix (TSN Jets, TSN 1290), before returning home to play Pittsburgh Thursday.

A basket by Damian�Lillard got the Trail Blazers within two points before James�Harden stepped back and swished a 3-pointer to make it 103-98 with about three minutes left.TORONTO -- The mercurial Nazem�Kadri has been a hot-button topic for the Toronto Maple Leafs in the past. But under coach Randy Carlyle, the 22-year-old offensive dynamo is managing to choose his moments and make them count. Kadri had three assists and linemate Joffrey�Lupul added a goal and an assist as the Maple Leafs snapped a five-game winless streak with a 4-2 victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning on Wednesday night. Kadri, Lupul and Nikolai�Kulemin won the battle against the Lightnings top line of Steven�Stamkos, Martin�St.�Louis and Cory�Conacher. Stamkos, the leagues top goal-scorer, was limited to one shot. Kadris three points tie a career high (he had a hat trick in the Feb. 28 game against the Islanders). The shifty centre had a chance at a fourth point but was hauled down in front of goal by Teddy�Purcell midway through the third period. Dion�Phaneuf, Tyler�Bozak and Kulemin also scored for Toronto (16-12-2) before 19,433 at the Air Canada Centre as Toronto led 4-0 by the halfway mark. Rookies Radko�Gudas and Conacher scored consolation goals for Tampa Bay (13-16-1) in the third, spoiling James�Reimers shutout attempt. Tampa outshot Toronto 28-26. Kadri leads the Leafs in scoring with 30 points on 11 goals and 19 assists. And Carlyle said his plan is to put Kadris line against the oppositions top trio. "Were going to test Kadri against the best players," he said. "He wants that, he cherishes it and tonight it worked for him." Former coach Ron Wilson complained about Kadris defence but Carlyle says the youngster was never negligent in that area. "The biggest emergence of Nazem�Kadri is where and when in the game to try to use the skill moves," Carlyle said. "He was always good defensively. ... What happens in your transition from junior to pro hockey, its the number of times that you expose yourself to the high-risk, high reward and where you do and when you do it on the ice. "Thats really been the learning curve for Nazie. We always knew that he had skill." The Leafs had been off since a 5-4 shootout loss to the visiting Winnipeg Jets on Saturday, with their last win coming March 6 -- a 5-4 decision over visiting Ottawa. "We knew we had to come out with our foot on the gas pedal right away," said Kadri, who pointed to good chemistry with Lupul. "Were pretty much on the same page offensively," Kadri added. "We know where each other are going to be before were there." Lupul, meanwhile, pointed to Kulemins skills. Toronto gave up 16 goals during the five-game winless slide with Reimer, 0-1-2 during that run, allowing eight goals on 76 shots. Tampa, while 4-6-0 in its last 10, came into the game on back-to-back wins over Carolina and Philladelphia that saw it score four goals in each game. Carolina Panthers Hats. The Lightning were without star forward Vincent�Lecavalier, who reportedly suffered a broken left foot March 12 against Florida. "It took us too much time to get our legs," complained Tampa coach Guy Boucher. "Were a hard-working fast team and it didnt look like that the first half." "We looked like we were waiting to see what was going to happen out there," he added. "I dont know if it was because the guys froze or it was a road game --I cant tell you. But it wasnt a good game to start." The game marked the return of 22-year-old defenceman Jake�Gardiner, a member of the all-rookie team last season who has been playing in the American Hockey League for the Toronto Marlies this season after recovering from a concussion. "I thought he was really good tonight," said Phaneuf. "He definitely adds to our team." Earlier in the day, the Leafs placed high-priced, little-used defenceman Mike�Komisarek on waivers. Gardiner, who had 10 goals and 21 assists in 43 games with the Marlies this season, partnered John-Michael�Liles and led all Leafs with 8:14 ice time in the first period. He finished with 19:20, fourth best on the team. Defenceman Mark�Fraser pushed Torontos league-leading number of fighting majors to 30 early in the second period when he tangled -- successfully -- with B.J.�Crombeen. Up 4-0 at 7:22 of the second period, Tampa made a goalie change. Garon, who gave up four goals on 14 shots, was pulled in favour of Anders�Lindback. Lupul was front and centre throughout the night, dispatched to the penalty box early in the third for an illegal hit to the head that floored six-foot-six defenceman Victor�Hedman. Lupul hit Hedman with his shoulder, leaving the big Swede dazed. "By no means did I go after him and try and hit him in the head," said Lupul. Garon returned to goal in the third period, as Lindback went to the dressing room. Boucher called it a lower-body injury. "Hopefully its not something thats going to keep him out for long," Boucher said. "He was doing really good for us his last four or five starts. Hopefully it wont last very long." The first and last Toronto goals were beauties. Lupul -- making his 99th appearance as a Leaf -- opened the scoring at 6:56 of the first period, completing a nifty tic-tac-toe passing play with Kadri and Carl Gunnarson that found him alone in front of Mathieu�Garon as checker Alex�Killorn went walkabout. It was Lupuls third goal in two games since returning from a broken forearm. Kulemin then padded Torontos lead to 4-0 with his fourth on the season after neatly evading the trailing Gudas and snapping a wrist shot from the slot. cheap jerseys ' ' '

NEW YORK -- The banged-up New York Yankees are getting an unexpected but much-needed rest. wholesale jerseys . New Yorks game against the Pittsburgh Pirates that was scheduled for 7:05 p.m. Friday was postponed six hours before game time due a forecast of inclement weather throughout the night. The game will be made up as part of a single-admission doubleheader Sunday with the opener starting at 1:05 p.m. Only tickets for Sundays game will be honoured. Its the first one-ticket doubleheader hosted by the Yankees since Sept. 29, 2004, against Minnesota, according to STATS. Pittsburghs Edinson�Volquez (1-3) was scheduled to face New Yorks David�Phelps (0-0) Friday night in the Pirates first game at the newest version of Yankee Stadium, which opened in 2009. Phelps will now start Saturday and Hiroki�Kuroda will be given an extra day of rest. He and Vidal�Nuno will start in the doubleheader, the order still to be determined. This is the third postponement for each team this season. The rain gives Yankees outfielder Ichiro�Suzuki an extra day of rest. He has not played since Sunday, when he hurt his back attempting a catch in Milwaukee. Once healthy, Suzuki should see more playing time because Carlos�Beltran was placed on the 15-day disabled list Thursday with a bone spur in his right elbow. "Im getting better but not to the point where Im capable of swinging the bat 100 per cent," Beltran said Thursday. The Yankees (21-19) are coming off back-to-back shutouts of the crosstown rival Mets with Masahiro Tanaka winning 4-0 Wednesday, his first complete game in the major leagues. A night later, rookie Chase Whitley pitched two-hit ball for 4 2-3 innings of a 1-0 win that gave the New York a split of the four-game Subway Series. Whitley made his major league debut in place of ace CC�Sabathia, who is on the 15-day disabled list with a right knee injury. Phelps was scheduled to make his third start since replacing Michael�Pineda in the rotation. Phelps first joined the rotation when Pineda was suspended 10 days for having pine tar on his neck in a game at Boston. The right-hander remained in the starting five when Pineda injured a muscle in his upper back pitching a simulated game April 29, during his ban. Phelps gave up four runs and eight hits over five-plus innings Sunday, when the Yankees lost 6-5 in the bottom of the ninth at Milwaukee. The Pirates (17-23) come to New York after a 4-3, walkoff loss Thursday, also at the Brewers. Former Yankees reliever Mark�Melancon blew the save filling in for injured closer Jason�Grilli. The Pirates have not won in New York since the start of interleague play, losing three in a row in 2005 and 07. They took one of three in Pittsburgh in 2008. Pirates catchers Chris�Stewart and Russell�Martin both played for the Yankees, and theyve seen how the new ballpark can be hitter friendly for batters swinging from the left side. "Every stadium kind of has their pros and cons, and thats definitely one of them for left-handers, and some right-handers like to go the other way," Stewart told MLB.com. "Ive seen popups over there that have sailed out." That could bode well for slugging third baseman Pedro�Alvarez, who grew up in the Bronx and has eight homers. The ballpark also suits Ike�Davis well. The first baseman will be returning to the city where he played his entire career for the Mets in Queens until being traded to Pittsburgh on April 18. cheap nfl jerseys . Headlining the 27 players were first-round NHL draftees Rasmus Ristolainen and Teuvo Teravainen. Both players are returnees from the 2013 Finnish World Junior team. cheap nfl jerseys china . Tottenham manager Tim Sherwood launched himself down the touchline pumping his fists after Gylfi Sigurdsson completed a fight back from 2-0 down at home to Southampton to win 3-2. The victory kept Tottenham in touch with the Champions League places, with the London club six points behind fourth-placed Arsenal.MONTREAL -- If there is a team in MLS that gives the Montreal Impact headaches, it is the Columbus Crew. The Impact looked to be cruising to a win after Marco Di Vaios Major League Soccer-leading 18th goal in the 23rd minute when the crafty Federico Higuain went to work, setting up a pair of second-half goals in the Crews 2-1 comeback victory on Saturday afternoon. Defender Chad Marshall and striker Dominic Oduro scored for Columbus (10-14-5), which has been a thorn in Montreals side this season. The Crew, who handed the Impact only their second home loss of the season, won the season series with Montreal 2-0-1, taking five of six points at Saputo Stadium. Impact coach Marco Schallibaum uses the French term "bete noire" to describe Columbus, which his players know means nemesis. "Its football -- you always have a bete noire," said Schallibaum. "Its very hard to explain." This one was straightforward. The Impact wasted several chances to make it a 2-0 game, and pushed so hard for a second goal that they left themselves open for talent like Higuain to make them pay. The first was a smartly curled free kick that found Marshalls head on the left side of the penalty area in the 66th minute to tie the game. The second came after Justin Mapp lost the ball in the midfield and Higuain sent a perfect pass that the onrushing Oduro got a toe on in the 79th. "Its difficult to explain, but every time we play against Columbus its a difficult game for us," said Impact defender Matteo Ferrari. "We started well. "In the second half, we were in control and also had some chances. It was important to score the second goal and we didnt. They got the second goal with a mistake in the midfield and then it was difficult to come back." The game-winner was Oduros 10th of the season, including one in each game against Montreal. "It looks like I have their number, but at the end of the day, we just played well," said Oduro. "We wanted to get a result and we did. We played well and made it happen." Montreal (13-8-6), which entered the day in a tie for first place in the Eastern Conference, ended a four-game unbeaten run with a game they should have had salted away by the intermission. cheap jerseys. The Impact got the early lead Patrice Bernier lofted a pass over the penalty area to Ferrari, who headed into the middle for Di Vaio to nod in for his seventh goal in the last five games. But Mapp was stopped from point blank by Matt Lampson in the opening minutes, captain Davy Arnaud just missed converting a Di Vaio pass, Felipe Martins froze on a chance from close range, Di Vaio wasted one when he cut left instead of shooting, and Jeb Brovsky was stopped by a diving save at the end of the half. Di Vaio had another chance early in the second half, but was stopped. "I dont think they were hungrier than us, I just think our focus was maybe too much on getting the second goal and we didnt do a good enough job covering space when we were going forward," said midfielder Collen Warner. It was a game they were counting on to win. Schallibaum started his first 11, not saving any veterans for a key CONCACAF Champions League game in San Jose on Tuesday night. "Its very disappointing," said Arnaud. "I thought we created a ton of chances. "We could have put the game out of reach. We talked before the game about how dangerous they are on set pieces and it hurt us because they got back in the game on a set piece." It all added up to another setback against Columbus, a team that lost eight of 11 games before making a coaching change on Sept. 2. Interim coach Brian Bliss has two wins and a loss since taking over. Now the Crew hope to put a streak together to try to climb back into the playoff hunt. They are on the tail of Chicago, Houston and England for fifth place and final a post-season berth. "This was critical to our goal of getting a playoff spot," said Bliss. "Now weve put some pressure on some teams that are ahead of us." Montreal resumes league play Saturday against the visiting Vancouver Whitecaps. cheap jerseys ' ' '
