LONDON -- Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger insisted Sunday hell be back for another season at the club, ending speculation that he might leave after nearly 18 years at the helm. Philadelphia Phillies Pro Shop . Wenger has yet to sign a new contract, with his current deal expiring after this campaign, and was asked after a 1-0 win over West Bromwich Albion on Sunday whether hell be back next season. "Yes," he replied. "I dont know (when I will sign a new deal). I told you many times that my word is my word. I am from a period where you didnt need a pen to commit." He suggested that one factor that had been holding him back was waiting to see if the club would secure a top-four finish this season, which it did after Everton lost to Manchester City on Saturday. "It was of course important to be in the Champions League, that is for sure," he said. Under Wengers leadership, Arsenal has secured Champions League football for 17 consecutive seasons and overseen a lucrative move from Highbury to Emirates Stadium. When he joined Arsenal in 1996, the club flourished on the pitch, winning three league titles and four FA Cup trophies. But the 64-year-old Wenger has come under criticism from some fans in recent years for a lack of spending in the transfer market and failing to end Arsenals trophy drought.

Washington, which had lost two in a row, began a three-game road swing by moving back over .500 at 11-10-4.Its great for the confidence, Fehr said. It makes for a happy plane ride and thats the stuff that can really build into big streaks.Alexander Semin scored his first goal of the season for the Hurricanes. The Eastern Conferences second-worst team was trying to win two in a row for the first time since early November.Obviously, were in a little bit of a hole weve got to climb out of, captain Eric Staal said. Against divisional teams, you want to get the two points, especially at home. ... For the most part, we were ready to play.Fehr made the key play all by himself. He poked the puck away from Riley Nash just inside the blue line and scooped it up, charged between the circles and snapped a shot past Anton Khudobin.I definitely take a lot of pride in keeping pucks in the zone, knocking pucks away, Fehr said. This time it worked out and I was able to retrieve it and get a big goal.Khudobin finished with 26 saves for Carolina.The Capitals had lost four of their last five while allowing a combined 15 goals in those defeats. But they always seem to find a way to play tense games against Carolina — 19 of the last 32 meetings haave been decided by one goal.

I think we minimized them a lot and held our ground as best we could to earn that close game.Semin had given the Hurricanes a jolt of momentum earlier in the final period when he tied it with his long-awaited first goal.The former Washington forward took a nifty pass from Jay Harrison and beat Holtby with a backhand for the 500th point of his career.

Ike Davis had a two-run single against his former team in a three-run first off Bartolo Colon. Alvarez added an RBI double off Colon (8-6) in the inning. Volquez (6-6) worked in and out of trouble, giving up eight hits and a walk. He struck out a season-high seven as the Pirates took three of four from the Mets. New York had plenty of chances to score off Volquez, stranding 11 on base, including seven in scoring position. The Mets had men on base in every inning except the eighth. The Mets scored twice in the ninth against Jared Hughes on Chris Youngs groundout to shortstop and Ruben Tejadas RBI single. Mark Melancon relieved Hughes with two outs and gave up a hit to Daniel Murphy, but Melancon got Curtis Granderson to fly out to right field for his 15th save of the season. Granderson went 0 for 5 and was hitless in 17 at-bats in the series. Josh Harrison led off the fourth with a double to right-centre field.

It was John Wooden who so poetically put it best - Sports do not build character, they reveal it. Fake Nmd Shoes . It was not a good week for the character of football followers. A day on from a very good Manchester derby, many fans are still talking about the referee. What a way to remember a game. I know how I will remember it. A game decided by Sergio Agueros superb goal that came in an action-packed, thoroughly entertaining second half after Manchester United had lost both of their ineffective centre-backs - one through two moments of stupidity causing him to be withdrawn from the game with a red card and the other, on a stretcher, with a dislocated shoulder and a dislocated reputation. There were other small things to take from the match. Uniteds shaky high line bending, but not breaking, until a moment of class from the leagues sharpest shooter. Michael Carrick, again, impressing in a big game, looking easily the most comfortable centre-back United have shown us this season, despite being a midfielder. Wayne Rooneys role before the red card, where he dropped into midfield alongside Marouane Fellaini, and kept a close eye on Yaya Toure and the reemergence of the Ivorian, who looked a bit more like his old self. You may or may not have any of these observations in your mind and, if you followed the game on social media, there is an excellent chance you came away from the game thinking more about the referee than any of these. Twitter can be a depressing place. A world of Vines and vitriol await a visitor and, if you follow a game without watching it, you can easily get the wrong idea completely of how a match played out. If you want a balanced view of what is happening, this is not the place you can rely on. We are supposed to be a far more smarter generation than the past. Never has it been easier to find the answer to a question we have and never has it been easier to know the laws of the game.Yet, those rules may as well not exist to footy fans. It was the second successive weekend in the Premier League where a monumental match was, in the opinion of many, affected by incompetence of the match official. The games obviously had different cases, but in the end, the overriding feeling for many was frustration, anger and/or bitterness towards the official. What a pity. Unlike other sports, where players and fans are encouraged to see it from an official’s point of view – and, in the case of the participants, cannot simply argue otherwise – football has been allowed to get away with nonsensical abuse to officials for far too long, creating a forever growing thought process that referees deliberately go out of their way to favour one team over the other. People actually run stats about how good teams perform under certain referees. How depressing. No one in sport does depressing more than a soccer fan. Sitting in the stands at a Premier League match can be a life-altering experience, where you can be surrounded by so much anger and frustration that you can’t help but wonder about people’s priorities. Yes, it is a release from life’s daily trials but, for many, it is taken far too seriously. It is rarely a place for relaxation or to sample the entertainment for which you have paid good money. Watching a game via Twitter can be the same, yet the only thing you pay for is the company you keep whilst hanging out there. Many fans go through multiple steps to avoid putting any blame on their own team for their incompetence. Much of the time the first step is easiest. Let us blame the referee. You may recall that referee Phil Dowd was trending following the 1-1 draw at Old Trafford between Manchester United and Chelsea last Sunday, as many believed the referee had made multiple high-profile errors including missed penalties, fouls and a questionable red card. Dowd, in fact, had very little influence on the game and his decisions were impacted by two crucial factors – The letter of the law and what he could actually see. Another top Premier League referee, Michael Oliver, was thrown into the limelight during the Manchester derby. Oliver was called to the stand for questioning by angry fans and United’s went first. Joe Hart rushed out to talk to the official following the yellow card to Chris Smalling and wrongly touched Oliver’s head with his own head while communicating. The contact was for a split-second. Yet on Twitter, the still images raged and millions of fans turned into officials around the world and demanded he should have been sent off. But what for? For Hart to be sent off it would fall under the act of violent conduct, outlined in the laws of the game in this manner: The man in charge of deciding if Hart used excessive force was the man who was on the opposite end of the altercation. In other words, the perfect witness. Oliver decided Hart did not use excessive force or brutality and that should be the end of it. Except millions around the world think they had a better idea of Hart’s actions than the man who was there on the end of it. Minutes later, it was City fans who turned on Oliver when Fellaini kicked Toure in the box. It was a foul, they screamed. It was a penalty. Yes, it was hard to argue against such accusations, but Oliver didn’t have the comforts of your view from the couch and the multiple replays soon after. His positioning was spot-on, but the incident took place with a crowd of players around it. Unless Oliver had the ability to attach a rocket to his back and somehow elevate himself in the air 20 feet to fly over the incident and see it in real time, then he can do no more than what he did. Soon after that, both sets of fans had a moment to sink their teeth into as Toure raced towards goal unmarked and prepared to receive a ball in the six-yard box with no defender between him and the goal. Then Marcos Rojo kicked him before the ball arrived. City fans screamed Penalty and red card!, a stance the commentators stuck to the entire match, afterwards, yet Oliver decided he didn’t see a foul. Had he done so, it is important to note it doesn’t have to be a red card, particularly in this situation, as Toure may not have gotten the ball as the second description in the laws of the game dictates: In a fast-paced game featuring 22 supreme athletes, it is clear that, occasionally, a game’s ultimate result can be directly impacted by mistakes made by an official. After all, if the sport were to be created today, it wouldn’t be taken seriously if only one man, usually older than all of the players, was put in charge of the game. Yet, this is how it remains. Occasionally, mistakes will happen. However, drawing a line between that mistake and a deliberate act of incompetence is something far too many football fans are willing to do. A football referee has one of the hardest jobs in sports, so to think that any of them would actually make it more difficult by finding ways to screw over your team deliberately is absolutely laughable. If fans actually stop to think about this, they would surely enjoy the game more. This sport continues to serve up delicious dishes of entertainment where fans can sink their teeth into some spectacular storylines, yet they are missing out on them because they, and not the referees, are the ones blinded by bias.

Carrolls 14 second-quarter points keyed a dominant period for the Hawks that saw them outscore the Nets 36-13. Paul Millsap contributed 17 points and nine rebounds in the winning effort, Atlantas fifth straight, and Jeff Teague and Dennis Schroder scored 14 and 13 points, respectively.

The opponent had the hot hand and we couldnt do anything about it, Johnson said. In the second quarter, Atlanta established its defense and shut down the Nets.

At the 4:32 mark of the third quarter, a Lopez three-point play brought the Brooklyn deficit to 18 points, but that was the last time it would be within 20. The Hawks lead ballooned to as much as 32 when they started the final quarter on a 15-6 run when Schroder scored 11 of his 13 points.

Steve Bruce has told Goals on Sunday that he has discussed the vacant managerial position with Aston Villa. Cheap Sneakers Wholesale China . According to Sky sources, the former Hull City boss is the leading candidate for the role, closely followed by current interim boss Steve Clarke. Its also understood Villa will speak to Clarke about the job early this week.Speaking to the Sky Sports show on Sunday morning, Bruce said: Ive had a chat with Villa and thats as far as it has gone. Watch NOW TV Watch Sky Sports for just ￡6.99. No contract. They said they were in a process, which you have to respect, so Im hoping I hear something this week. It would be a terrific job, Im sure everyone would agree Villa are one of the big clubs of this country and they need a little bit of turning around at the moment.But they have huge support and theyre a big, big club so hopefully I hear something this week. Steve Bruce admits leaving Hull was a very tough choice but says a change in direction by the chairman was the reason behind his decision to walk away The struggling Sky Bet Championship club are searching for a new manager having dismissed Roberto Di Matteo after just 12 games last week.Bruce resigned from Hull in the summer following a dispute over transfer policy and was on the list of candidates to be the England manager after Euro 2016.

Aston Villa owner Dr Tony Xia says it was tough to sack Roberto Di Matteo Some Villa fans may have reservations over appointing another former Birmingham boss. Alex McLeish lasted just 11 months before he was sacked in May 2012.Asked if he may have second thoughts on the new role on the back of McLeishs experiences, Bruce added: Thats the big thing everyone has to weigh up but that was 10 years ago, you cant go over the past.At the end of the day Im a football manager whos out of work and I still think Ive got something offer.

But there have been people in the background that have worked for both clubs so I dont think in this day and age it would be a big problem, I hope not anyway.In the meantime, Clarke remains in charge on a caretaker basis.

Balenciaga Sneakers Sale .com) - James Harden put the Houston Rockets on his back and willed them to an overtime victory on Thursday.Philadelphia, PA (SportsNetwork.com) - A late riser makes his debut in the Heisman Rankings this week after another record-breaking Saturday, but the favorites remain unchanged as we head towards the final full weekend of the regular season. 1. Marcus Mariota, QB, Oregon (last week: No. 1) -- The Ducks quarterback held onto the top spot after yet another dominant performance in a 44-10 victory over Colorado. Mariota completed 24-of-32 passes for 323 yards - his fifth 300-yard passing performance of the season - with three touchdowns and zero interceptions. He was equally dynamic on the ground, turning eight carries into 73 yards, including a 46-yard touchdown run on a read-option play in the first quarter where he went into the end zone untouched after fooling the entire CU defense. Mariota, who has over 3,600 total yards, has not only been dominant, but remarkably consistent with at least 270 total yards and multiple touchdowns in every game, and his 42 touchdowns give him the Pac-12 record. Unless something catastrophic happens in the next two weeks, hes going to be the runaway winner. 2. Melvin Gordon, RB, Wisconsin (last week: No. 2) -- Gordon probably wasnt pleased to see Samaje Perine break his single-game rushing record after only week, and if he and the Badgers had to do it over again he probably would have played some of the fourth quarter against Nebraska to pad that record a little more. Losing the record hasnt hurt Gordons Heisman chances, however, as he continued to rack up astounding numbers over the weekend. Wisconsin needed all of Gordons production to squeak out a 26-24 victory over Iowa, as he finished with 200 yards and two touchdowns on 31 carries, while also tacking on solid receiving totals (four catches, 64 yards). Gordon (2,109 yards, 25 TDs) reached the 2,000-yard plateau faster than anyone in FBS history, doing so midway through the Iowa game on just his 242nd carry of campaign - meaning that Barry Sanders seemingly unbreakable single-season rushing record (2,628 yards) is very much in jeopardy. 3. J.T. Barrett, QB, Ohio State (last week: No. 4) -- At the start of Barretts reign as the Buckeyes quarterback, the Braxton Miller comparisons were inevitable. Hes not only broken free of Millers shadow, but is putting together perhaps the best season by a quarterback in program history. With another sterling performance in Ohio States 42-27 victory over Indiana (25- of-35 passing, 302 yards, four touchdowns, two interceptions, 78 rushing yards), Barrett broke Millers school record for total yards in a season, as he now sits with 3,507 (2,658 passing, 849 rushing). That wasnt the only record to fall, as he also broke Troy Smiths mark for passing touchdowns in a season with 33 and counting (42 overall). Even if Ohio State beats Michigan this week and wins the Big Ten Championship Game, it still might not have a strong enough resume to earn a spot in the College Football Playoff. However, that wont make the heights achieved by a freshman quarterback any less impressive. 4. Trevone Boykin, QB, TCU (last week: No. 3) -- The Horned Frogs bye week has Boykins stock holding steady for the most part. TCU is on the outside looking in for that coveted fourth spot in the College Football Playoff rankings, but it is still right in the mix at 9-1, and Boykin (3,021 passing yards, 548 rushing yards, 31 TDs, five interceptions) will have the opportunity help both his Heisman candidacy and his teams championship hopes as he closes out the regular season with matchups at Texas and versus Iowa State in the coming weeks. 5. Dak Prescott, QB, Mississippi State (last week: No. 7) -- The Bulldogs quarterback rightfully lost a lot of momentum after his teams loss to Alabama Nov. 15, but he went a long way in erasing that painful memory in the 51-0 shutout of Vanderbilt with a near-flawless performance. On 16-of-21 passing, he finished with 193 yards, three touchdowns and zero interceptions, while adding six rushes for 30 yards and a score in the easy victory to keep his teams hopes of an SEC title alive. Even if Mississippi State cant earn a spot in the College Football Playoff, its resume at the moment is still strong enough to get the attention of the selection committee with the No. 4 ranking, and that success is thanks in no small measure to Prescotts outstanding campaign (2,714 passing yards, 891 rushing yards, 36 TDs, 10 interceptions). 6. Brett Hundley, QB, UCLA (last week: No. 9) -- While Oregons fate as the Pac-12 North Diivision champion has been sealed, the battle for the South is coming down to the wire, and the Bruins went a long way in clearing their path to the crown over the weekend with a 38-20 victory over cross-town rival USC in perhaps the most important game of the college football weekend. Fake Nmd For Sale. Hundley was predictably outstanding in the triumph. For the ninth time this season, he completed better than 70 percent of his passes (22-of-31), while throwing for 326 yards and accounting for four touchdowns, leaving him with 2,873 passing yards, 566 rushing yards and 28 scores this season, coupled with a mere five interceptions. UCLA will sew up the South Division on Friday if it can take care of Stanford, setting up a rematch with Oregon in the conference championship game where Hundley can potentially kill two birds with one stone in spoiling the Ducks season, and Mariotas Heisman chances. 7. Samaje Perine, RB, Oklahoma (last week: unranked) -- After LaDainian Tomlinsons rushing record stood for more than a decade, Perine erased Gordons mark just seven days after it was set. In Oklahomas 44-7 romp of Kansas, the freshman running back rewrote the FBS record book with a 427-yard performance, doing so on 34 carries while scoring five touchdowns. Although Perine put together some highlights early in the season - notably a 242-yard showing at West Virginia in September - he had been relegated to a part-time role in the offense until recently, and hes taken full advantage of his new- found opportunity by rushing for a whopping 640 yards and eight touchdowns in the last two weeks. The chance of him emerging so late in the season to become a Heisman finalist is slim, especially with Oklahoma now an afterthought in the Big 12, but the future is undoubtedly bright for the youngster. 8. Amari Cooper, WR, Alabama (last week: No. 5) -- Cooper was well on his way to another big game early in the Crimson Tides matchup with Western Carolina over the weekend, as he had three catches for 46 yards in the first quarter. But he had to leave the game with a bruised knee. Luckily, the injury doesnt appear to be serious, as coach Nick Saban revealed after the game that Cooper likely could have returned if needed, but the team opted to hold him out as a precaution in the convincing 48-14 victory. Having topped 100 yards receiving just twice in the last seven games, Coopers campaign has lost steam, but a receiver who ranks in the top-five nationally in receptions (90), yards (1,349) and touchdowns (11) on the No. 2 team in the land still deserves plenty of recognition. 9. Nick Chubb, RB, Georgia (last week: No. 10) -- Chubbs services werent needed very often in the Bulldogs 55-9 blowout of Charleston Southern, but he nonetheless cashed in on his limited opportunities by turning a mere nine carries into 113 yards and two touchdowns for his sixth straight 100-yard outing. Todd Gurley is certainly an irreplaceable piece, but theres no denying Chubbs elite production in his stead this season, as he sits with 1,152 rushing yards and 11 touchdowns on just 161 carries, to go with solid receiving totals (15 receptions, 177 yards, two TDs). With Georgias SEC slate closed, it will need to wait to have its fate in the Eastern Division decided when Missouri plays Arkansas on Friday. If the Tigers fall, an entirely possible outcome considering Arkansas recent surge, then Chubb and the Bulldogs will get an opportunity to improve their stock in the SEC Championship Game, but not before a clash with rival Georgia Tech this Saturday. 10. Jameis Winston, QB, Florida State (last week: No. 6) -- Although the Seminoles remained unbeaten over the weekend, they continued to do so while looking anything but the nations No. 1 team. In a home game against a mediocre Boston College squad, FSU needed a game-winning field goal by Roberto Aguayo with three seconds remaining to squeak by with a 20-17 victory. Winston, despite competing nearly 69 percent of his passes, was far from great, as he threw for 281 yards with a touchdown and an interception. The reigning Heisman winner is falling well short of the pace he set last season with 3,125 passing yards, 22 total touchdowns and 13 interceptions. At this point, the only thing keeping Winston alive in the Heisman race is his teams uncanny ability to stay out of the loss column. Dropped Out: Ameer Abdullah, RB, Nebraska Honorable Mention: Bryce Petty, QB, Baylor; Tevin Coleman, RB, Indiana; Gerod Holliman; RB, Louisville. ' ' '
SAN ANTONIO - The San Antonio Spurs didnt dwell on nearly blowing a 24-point lead in the second half. Mickey Stanley Jersey . They won, and thats all that mattered to the veteran club. Tim Duncan had 29 points, 13 rebounds and five assists, and San Antonio overcame a fourth-quarter collapse to beat the Denver Nuggets 108-103 Wednesday night for its 15th straight victory. Tiago Splitter, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili had 10 points apiece for the Spurs (55-16), who have the leagues best record. "They made it competitive," Parker said. "They played with a lot of energy. We missed a lot of little stuff; easy layups that we always make and they got back in the game. It happens sometimes. Were not going to beat everybody by 20." It just seemed like they were after overwhelming the Nuggets in the first half. Danny Greens 3-pointer at the buzzer was his fifth of the half, giving San Antonio its largest lead of opening 24 minutes at 63-43. Green scored 16 points, all in the first half, before leaving with a foot injury early in the second. His status is unknown, but he wore a walking boot as a precaution after the game and will have an MRI on Thursday morning. "All of a sudden he couldnt walk," San Antonio coach Gregg Popovich said. "The bottom of the foot, there is something. They are going to X-ray it. I am just guessing it is plantar fasciitis or something like that." San Antonio had 19 assists while going 24 for 42 from the field and forcing nine turnovers in the first half. "We were getting embarrassed in the first half," Denver forward Darrell Arthur said. "I was upset. I had words with some of the guys in the locker room." Aaron Brooks scored 25 points and Kenneth Faried had 24 points, including 15 points in a frenzied final quarter for the Nuggets. Denver went on a 34-20 run in the final 11 minutes. "We played a good half, we played a bad half," Popovich said. "The NBA is a 48-minute game and youve got to keep playing." After leading by as many as 24 points and by 20 midway through the third quarter, San Antonio needed Duncans late heroics to preserve its win streak. Duncan scored all but one of the Spurs final 11 points, capping his performance with an off-balance jumper off the glass for a 107-99 lead with 30 seconds remaining. The heavily contested shot sealed the win and led Nuggets coach Brian Shaw to turn and smile at Popovich, who shook his head as well. "(Duncan) played a great all-around game," Popovich said. "Probably nobody noticed, but it was assists, boards, scoring — he was the guy that kept it together." Duncan finished the game 12 for 20, including going 4 for 5 in the final five minutes on a series of layups and jumpers. It seemed like it was going to be an early night for Duncan and San Antonios veterans after the team rolled to a sizeable early lead. The Nuggets opened at a frenetic pace and the Spurs were more than willing to play along. The teams combined for 24 shots in the opening six minutes. Green and Kawhi Leonard benefited the most from the fast start, going a combined 4 for 5 on 3-pointers. Leonard got the Spurs started by swatting Farieds jumper from behind off the opening tip and then hitting a 3-pointer and 19-footer to give San Antonio a 7-4 lead. Green then hit three consecutive 3-pointers to extend the advantage to 16-10 with 8 minutes remaining in the first quarter. Green ended the run by draining a closely contested 3 on Randy Foye after screaming for the ball as Duncan brought it up court off a rebound. "We fell asleep," Brooks said. "They got a lot of backdoors in the first half. We fell asleep on a lot of plays and allowed them to run their offence, and I think in the second half we pressured a little bit more." NOTES: Spurs F Austin Daye has become an overnight fan favourite, receiving an ovation second only to Ginobilis upon entering with 29.5 seconds remaining in the first quarter. After averaging just 2.3 minutes in four games since being acquired from Toronto, Daye scored a game-high 22 points in 29 minutes in a 113-91 victory over Philadelphia on Monday. ... Spurs F Matt Bonner (right calf strain) missed his second straight game and his ninth due to injury this season. Denny McLain Jersey . -- Caris LeVert had 14 points and a career-high 11 rebounds for his first career double-double, and No. George Mullin Jersey . Therrien would not confirm his lineup for the game, but he did have the same line combinations practicing together for the third straight day which is usually a pretty good indication of what the lineup will be.The BC Lions and offensive lineman Hunter Steward, the teams top pick in the 2013 CFL draft, have come to terms on a contract. Terms of the deal were not disclosed. Steward, originally from Kingston, Ont., moved to Virginia Beach before his senior year oof high school. Kirk Gibson Jersey. . He enrolled at Kellam High School in Virginia, began his college football career as a defensive tackle with the Virginia Cavaliers before transferring to Liberty University and converting to the offensive line.

Shaun White is heading to the Winter X Games after all. Tony Larussa Jersey Braves . The two-time Olympic halfpipe gold medallist informed ESPN on Monday he plans to compete in Apsen, Colo., this weekend. White said initially he was skipping the annual event to rest for next months Sochi Olympics. White is competing in halfpipe and slopestyle events in Russia. He says he was "worked" after a grueling week in which he won three qualifying events and took a fall that he called one of the worst in recent memory. The 27-year-old has won more than a dozen gold medals at the Winter X Games, including eight victories in the Superpipe competition. He nailed his newest trick, frontside double-cork 1440, twice during Olympic qualifying. Ron Santo Jersey Cubs . A 19-game winner with the New York Yankees in both 2006 and 2007, Wang spent most of this year at Triple-A for the Yankees and Blue Jays. The 33-year-old right-hander was 1-2 with a 7. David Justice Jersey Braves . PAUL, Minn – The clock lingered for what seemed like an interminable two minutes and 51 seconds before Mark Fraser finally escaped to the bench during a wildly one-sided first period of an eventual loss to Boston.GREENBURGH, N.Y. - Carmelo Anthony knows the easiest path to a title probably isnt in New York.Had he gone to play with Derrick Rose in Chicago, or joined Dwight Howard and James Harden in Houston, he could have gone into this season with a real chance at a championship. Yet when it came time to decide who he wanted to be with, Anthony passed on those partnerships and chose Phil Jackson and Derek Fisher.He believes they will fix the Knicks and wants to be a part of it a€” even if it doesnt happen right away.So that right there just goes to show you that it wasnt all about running and jumping ship and trying to get something in the immediate future, Anthony said Monday. Im willing to be patient. Now how long Im willing to be patient? I cant really tell you that, but Im willing to be patient. Im willing to take risks, Im willing to take that chance. And for me to just get up and leave like that, now that I look back at it, leading up to my decision, I wouldnt have felt right within myself.Anthony could have left as a free agent, and there were plenty of reasons to go. The Knicks went 37-45 last season, the first time Anthony had missed the playoffs in his 11 NBA seasons, and salary cap woes left little ability to upgrade the team quickly. He met with the Bulls, Rockets, Mavericks and Lakers in July, and all of them offered better cores, or at least had another superstar in place. The Knicks couldnt offer much beyond the highest possible salary.From a basketball standpoint it probably wouldve been maybe the greatest thing to do, but for me personally I wouldnt have felt right with myself, Anthony said, knowing that I wanted to come here, I kind of forced my way here to New York and I have some unfinished business to take care of.He will get started on that Tuesday at West Point, when the Knicks open their first training camp under rookie coach Fisher. Anthony, appearing confident and at ease,, said he feels great physically after some off-season weight loss and ready to fill his role within the triangle offence, having spoken to Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant about it. Deion Sanders Jersey Braves. My big thing is I want to embrace what Phil and what Derek is doing. I want them to know that Im in, Im embracing this challenge, Anthony said. I know from a being a student of the game and watching, and knowing the history, that it will work. It takes time, nothing happens overnight, but it will work.That could depend on how much Anthonys teammates contribute. He was at times the Knicks only offence last season, when his 27.4 points per game nearly doubled runner-up J.R. Smiths 14.5.I think we have to make him feel the most comfortable possible out there with all of us. Try to make him not have to force it every time, new point guard Jose Calderon said. We cannot just let him do everything, so weve got to be able and ready to help him in every position so its easier for him.Smith could bounce back after saying he didnt feel fully healthy until around the final 30 games last season following knee surgery. Same with Andrea Bargnani, the former No. 1 overall pick who was limited to just 42 games by an elbow injury after being acquired from Toronto.Last year was disappointing for everybody, so everybody wants to come back this year stronger and have a very good season, Bargnani said.The Knicks nearly made the post-season even during their miserable 2013-14, finishing a game behind eighth-place Atlanta in the Eastern Conference. Jackson thinks it will take more victories to secure a spot this season in what appears to be a stronger East.As far as putting a number on games, on wins this season, I cant tell you how many wins were going to have, Anthony said. I mean, we havent even opened our first practice yet. But I will tell you that we will have a better season than what we had last year. ' ' '
BOSTON -- It was only fitting that a batter who was by a pitch scored the winning run. Stitched Sports Jerseys . Beanballs were the theme Friday night as the Red Sox and Rays had another AL East rumble, with Boston earning a 3-2 victory on A.J. Pierzysnkis RBI triple in the 10th inning that drove in Jonny Gomes. The Red Sox rushed out of the dugout -- for once not to possibly fight their division rivals -- and celebrated their fifth straight win following a 10-game skid. A chunk of Bostons coaching staff had to watch the comeback from the clubhouse, where they were sent during a string of ejections in the latest testy game between the clubs, which included a bench-clearing scrum in the fourth inning. "When we have four people ejected and also have three people hit by pitches, and they have none, thats a hard one to figure out," said Boston manager John Farrell, who was the first of three Boston skippers to get tossed. His two successors joined him later along with starting pitcher Brandon Workman, who was tossed in the sixth after a throwing a high pitch that sailed behind Tampa Bay slugger Evan Longoria. Farrell was still irked after the game that Tampa Bay ace David Price was not ejected. Farrell objected after Prices first pitch to David Ortiz hit him in the hip, setting the tone for the night. Plate umpire Dan Bellino immediately issued a warning to both benches, which irked Farrell enough to get him out of the dugout, then quickly ejected when he crossed Bellinos threshold. "There is intent to that pitch. As emphatic as Dan Bellinos warning was, it sure seemed like Dan Bellino felt like there was intent as well," Farrell said. Ortiz felt it was retribution for two homers he hit off Price in the playoffs last year. "If youre mad because I take you deep twice, let me let you know," Ortiz said during a postgame rant about Price. "Ive got almost 500 homers in this league. Its part of the game, son." There was much more to come, including a bench-clearing scrum after Price plunked Boston first baseman Mike Carp in the fourth. No punches were thrown and the only ejection was to Red Sox bench coach Torey Lovullo, who threw down his hat and burst into an argument when he learned Price wasnt tossed. Price said the pitch to Carp was not intentional. "Thats not something Im trying to do," Price said. "I had six lefties in the lineup today. Ive got to be able to throw my fastball in." Crew chief Jeff Kellogg explained to a pool reporter why Price wasnt tossed after the warnings and his second hit batter. "If we feel there was intent to hit the batter, he would have been ejected," Kellogg said. "We felt the pitch was certainly inside but not intentional. So thats why he stayed in the game." Andrew Miller (2-4) got the win. Juan Carlos Oviedo (1-2) took the loss after hitting Gomes, who was ejected Sunday when the Rays and Red Sox cleared the benches in Tampa Bay. "I thought it was a great game. I thought it was handled great on the field by the umpires," Tampa Bay manager Joe Maddon said. "Its always going to be felt from the perspective of the sides. Im going to defend the Rays and theyre going to defend the Red Sox." These teams have a long history of bad blood, and Friday night was the latest chapter. Boston retaliated in the sixth when Workman threw behind Longoria, who was visibly upset. Longoria and Pierzynski had a conversation at home plate, and a handful of players from both dugouts ventured a few steps onto the field, but no trouble ensued. Workman was ejected and third base coach Brian Butterfield was automatically tossed with him, leaving hitting coach Greg Colbrunn as the fourth Red Sox skipper of the night. The last-place Rays had won five straight against the Red Sox, including a three-game sweep last weekend that extended Bostons losing streak to 10 in a row. The Red Sox vented some of the frustration during a bench-clearing dustup Sunday at Tampa Bay. David DeJesus led off the game with a double and went to third on an error by Grady Sizemore in right field. Ben Zobrist followed with a fielders choice that allowed DeJesus to score and give Tampa Bay a 1-0 lead. The Rays added a run in the fifth when Escobar led off with a double and scored on an RBI single by DeJesus. Boston cut it to 2-1 in the fifth on two-out singles by Xander Bogaerts, Dustin Pedroia and Ortiz. Bogaerts added an RBI double to tie it at 2-all in the seventh after Jackie Bradley Jr. led off with a single. Price left after seven innings, allowing two runs and six hits. He struck out six, walked one and hit two batters. NOTES: Boston RHP Rubby De La Rosa is scheduled to make his first start of the season Saturday against Tampa Bay RHP Jake Odorizzi (2-4). ...

ST. Hawks Jerseys China . SIMONS ISLAND, Ga. - Ted Bishop spent Tuesday trying to salvage whatever was left of his legacy as the 38th president of the PGA of America.That he was even talking about a legacy is part of what got him into this mess.Can anyone think of the legacy left by any of the 37 presidents who preceded him? And for those who are not deeply vested in the golf industry, does anyone even remember who was last president of the PGA of America?The PGA of America has the most important role in golf, just not the most glamorous. It has 27,000 men and women who rightfully claim to be recognized experts in teaching and growing the game. It runs the PGA Championship once a year, the Ryder Cup every four years. Celebrity is found on the PGA Tour, which split from the PGA of America nearly 50 years ago behind Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer.Bishop was more about celebrity. This is one PGA president people will remember, just not the way he wanted.Of all the presidents I dealt with, he was more into competing to win, said Davis Love III, part of eight Ryder Cup teams as a player, assistant and a captain. His mission was not to grow the Ryder Cup. It was to win. And I love that about him. Weve talked so much in the last year about whats going on with the Ryder Cups before and after. His heart is in the right place.And then he paused before adding wistfully, Just maybe not his comments.Those comments directed at Ian Poulter — on Twitter he called him a Lil Girl and in a Facebook post that he sounded like a little girl squealing during recess — marked an unceremonious end to 23 months of Bishop bringing too much attention to himself.The potential for that was there even before he began his two-year term. Bishop is exceptional as a public speaker, which makes it easy to be seduced by the spotlight.I think I abused my platform, a contrite Bishop said Tuesday on Golf Channel. I had lived on the edge for two years with a lot of quotes.He was the first to oppose the new rule that bans the anchored stroke used for long putters, but he didnt stop there. In a series of interviews and emails with Golf World magazine in April, he took on R&A and chief executive Peter Dawson for not accepting input. And then he poked the R&A by showing the evidence of not being inclusive was their unwillingness to accept women as members.The R&A voted to accept female members in September.Bishop also floated the idea of taking the PGA Championship overseas, even mentioning as a possibility Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland, which was clamouring for a British Open. Royal Portrush is now on the Open rotation.He also took a risk by appointing Tom Watson as the Ryder Cup captain, even though Watson had not been at a Ryder Cup since he last was captain in 1993. The move backfired when Watson made a series of curious decisions with his picks and his lineups, and then the choice was exposed when Phil Mickelson — with Watson in the room — talked in a press conference about how America had strayed from its winning formula of inclusiveness.And when the Americans lost, and Watson was criticized, Bishop took it personally. Thats why he couldnt resist firing back at Poulter, who in his recently published book mentioned Watsons shortcomings. Poulter also called out Nick Faldo for referring to Sergio Garcia as useless in 2008 when Faldo was captain and Europe lost for the only time in the last 15 years.I guess there had been a lot of emotions that had been building up in me since the Ryder Cup, Bishop said. This is absolutely no excuse. Ive got to know my position as president of the PGA of America. I cant be a fan of golf. I cant be Ted Bishop and have personal opinions on the subject. But obviously, thats what happened.I overreacted emotionally and Im embarrassed, and I apologize.Bishop blamed no one but himself. He didnt spare the PGA of America officers in the 24-hour news cycle that led to what he calls his impeachment. Bishop said he wanted to apologize, and instead he signed off a statement that only mentioned he had removed the inappropriate posts. He said Dottie Pepper, an independent director for the PGA and no stranger to controversy, urged him to get out in front of the story with an apology.This is one time Bishop decided to toe the line, and it cost him.Bishop was on the verge of choking up at the end of his Golf Channel appearance.Ive been involved for all 38 years of my career in trying to do things for women in golf, said Bishop, the father of two girls. And I think when I wake up at 2:30, 3:30 in the morning, and I cant sleep, its because I look at the things that I feel like Ive done in my career — for my girls, for women — and I think these things, theyre flushed down the toilet. Thats going to be my legacy. Thats it. Thats the situation I created for myself.He was right about one thing. He has no one to blame but himself. Fake Hawks Jerseys . The right-hander said he threw about 30 pitches in a routine bullpen session Sunday at Yankee Stadium, his final hurdle before starting Tuesday night at Tampa Bay. Wholesale Hawks Jerseys . In the second game of their day/night doubleheader at Minneapolis, three Blue Jays pitchers, Steve Delabar, Sergio Santos and J.PHOENIX -- Ian Kennedys first trip back to Chase Field was a little strange. His second was much easier -- and had a better result, too. Kennedy pitched into the sixth inning to win at Chase Field for the first time since being traded to San Diego, lifting the Padres to a 7-4 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Sunday. "It was a little different my first time, but this time was no different," Kennedy said. "Ive been a Padre for over a year now and it kind of goes away." After struggling his first game back in the desert a year ago, Kennedy (10-11) was sharp against his former team before making a few mistakes late, striking out six in 5 2-3 innings. Yasmani Grandal provided plenty of support, hitting a deep sacrifice fly in the first inning and clearing the wall easily in the fifth with a three-run homer off Chase Anderson (7-6). Pinch-hitter Will Venable added a two-run homer and Joaquin Benoit worked a perfect ninth for his eighth save to give San Diego manager Bud Black his 600th career win. "They (Arizona) battled back, put some stress on us," Black said. "It wasnt easy from the middle part of the game on, but our guys hung in there." Arizona fell behind early when the Padres hit Anderson hard and never fully recovered. Cliff Pennington hit a solo homer and Miguel Montero had a two-run single for the Diamondbacks, who went 1 for 6 with runners in scoring position. "We had opportunities," Diamondbacks manager Kirk Gibson said. "We left 10 guys out there today. They got more of their guys in than we did." Kennedy spent four seasons in Arizona, finishing fourth in the 2011 NL Cy Young Award voting and winning 48 games before being traded to San Diego at the deadline last season. The right-hander pitched at Chase Field for the first time since the trade last Aug. 27, but didnt factor in the decision after allowing six runs on six hits in 4 2-3 innings. Kennedy was sharp early against the Diamondbacks this time, striking out five the first four innings. He made a couple of pitches he would have liked back in the sixth inning, allowing Arizona to load the bases before Montero lined a two-run single up the middle. Custom Atlanta Hawks Jerseys. Ender Inciarte chased Kennedy with a run-scoring double in the sixth inning that cut San Diegos lead to 5-3. Kennedy allowed three runs on eight hits. "He had really good command today," Gibson said. "His breaking ball and his changeup, he mixed it in good." Anderson had the shortest outing of his career the last time out, allowing six runs on six hits in two innings of an 8-1 loss to Washington on Tuesday. The Padres hit the rookie right-hander hard in the first two innings, scoring a pair of runs in the opening frame on (Seth) Smiths groundout and a sacrifice fly by Grandal. Anderson settled down for a few innings, then walked three in the third to set up Grandals 11th home, a three-run shot that put the Padres up 5-0. Anderson allowed five runs -- four earned -- on six hits and struck out five in five innings. "I kind of lost the feel in that fifth inning," Anderson said. "I cant really tell you why." BUDS 600 Black joined select company by becoming the second San Diego manager to win 600 games, though he didnt know about the milestone until he was told after the game. "Its a tribute to the players, the coaches, the organization," Black said. "Its a round number. I like 601 better." Black is second on the Padres all-time list behind the 951 games Bruce Bochy won with San Diego from 1995-2006. MONTERO VS. SAN DIEGO Monetro went 1 for 4 on Sunday, extending his hitting streak against the Padres to nine games. Hes 11 for 32 with 10 RBIs in that span and also has a seven-game hitting streak at Chase Field. TRAINERS ROOM Diamondbacks: INF Chris Owings played second base Saturday night while going 2 for 4 at the plate in a rehab game with Triple-A Reno. He has been a shortstop, but the Diamondbacks are taking a look at him playing second. UP NEXT: Padres: LHP Eric Stults, Mondays starter against Milwaukee, has allowed three or fewer earned runs in 10 of his last 11 starts. Diamondbacks: The Diamondbacks have a day off before starting a two-game series against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
