GIANTS REPLAY
    12:53 AM ETStar of the gameGiants cornerback Corey Websterforced the only two turnovers of the game. Both of Webster'sinterceptions came after halftime, and helped the Giants avoid another late collapsein front of the home crowd.Turning pointWebster's second interception was the most important. The Billswere driving with less than five minutes left and Chris Johnson Authentic Jersey the score tied,24-24. But when Chris Johnson Jersey Authentic quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick threw deep to StevieJohnson, Webster leaped and intercepted the ball at the 4-yardline. The pick kept the Bills from taking the lead. It also gavethe Giants the ball and a chance to winthe game. They did just that on Lawrence Tynes' 23-yard field goalwith 1:32 remaining.Coaching decisionsBefore Sunday, the Giants' run game had been stagnant -a combined 123 yards the last Aaron Curry Jersey Authentic two games. But Sunday, the Giants showed a commitment to therun, finishing with 122 yards. Ahmad Bradshaw did the bulk of thatwork, running for all three Giants touchdowns. He finished with104 yards on 26 carries.Eye-catchingThe passing game didn't get into the end zone, but it wasproductive. Eli Manning was 21-for-32 for Dallas Clark Authentic Jersey 292 yards and nointerceptions. Hakeem Nicks had four catches for 96 yards,including a 60-yarder. Tight end Jake Ballard finished with fivecatches for 81 yards.Costly mistakesIn addition to Fitzpatrick's two second-half interceptions,Buffalo's Drayton Florence had two pass interference penalties onthe Giants' game-winning drive. Nickswas the target on both penalties.Looking aheadThe Giants (4-2) have a bye week. Theyreturn to action Sunday, Oct. 30, against the Miami Dolphins atMetLife Stadium. -- Andy Vasquez

  IT'S BRUISE DAY
    12:53 AM ETThe prayers offer just as much protection as the extra padding -at least, that's what Aaron Curry Authentic Jersey Mathias Kiwanuka hopes.He counts on them both.The Giant linebacker's equipment hung in his locker last weeklike body armor, just another reminder of the brutality of thegame: The standard-issue shoulder Andre Johnson Jersey Authentic pads. A cowboy collar to protecthis neck after a herniated disk last season threatened his career.And a Xenith-brand helmet -- thought to be the most effective inprotecting players' Brian Orakpo Jersey Authentic brains from the jarring hits that causeconcussions."After that, say cheap nfl jerseys china a prayer and hope God takes care of the rest,"Kiwanuka said.The price of NFL glory is paid for in flesh, with injuriesunavoidable and pain an inevitability.There's Authentic Dallas Clark Jersey no escaping the agony on Tuesday mornings, players say,when the pounding of Sunday takes its full toll in soreness,stiffness and misery. It's life in the league, where modern-daygiants sometimes are reduced to crawling out of bed after thebeating they take on game day."It's really just waking up and you're like, 'I'm not going tomake it,' " giants defensive lineman DaveTollefson said. "You feel like you're not going to make it.""That 48 hours after a game, you feel like you were in a carcrash," defensive tackle Chris Canty said. "It's rough. Everyweek."And they know when retirement eventually dawns, the real painjust may be beginning.Players don't like to think about it. But they do."Twenty years from now, if I'm still ticking, I'm happy," saidCanty with a laugh. "It's a reality that a lot of players havefaced. Sometimes you feel like you're robbing Peter to payPaul.""I push [those thoughts] away," right guard Chris Snee said. "Ithink obviously there will be issues at some point down theline."Concussions and repetitive head trauma have stolen the headlinesthe past few years, with some retired players developing dementiaand other neurological issues.But even those who escape the horrific affects of traumaticbrain injury often develop significant health issues.NFL players lose an average of one to three years off their lifeexpectancy Dallas Clark Jersey Authentic for every season they play, according to studies.The pounding players take also explains why the average careerlasts just 3 1/2 years."We take a huge beating," giants rookie Da'Rel Scott said."With running backs, it's pretty bad. You pretty much get hit everyplay. That's why it's only about three years we last in theleague."There is scientific merit to Scott's idea.Players don't merely leave the game due to acute injuries suchas torn ligaments. Repetitive injury also drives some to retirement-- or the waiver wire."Some players have had a specific injury and never Brian Orakpo Authentic Jersey recovered,"said Dr. Ronald P. Grelsamer, associate professor of orthopedicsurgery at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York. "You have others whohad Albert Haynesworth Jersey injuries and recovered from them, but maybe are 2, 3, 4percentage points not as good as they were before. And after a fewyears and a few injuries, those percentage points have added up tomaybe 20 percent, and someone has come out of college who is 100percent of who they are."The sudden specific injuries get all the headlines, but theday-to-day repetitive trauma that makes your tissues more leatheryalso do damage. A lot of injuries are quiet injuries that go underthe radar."The injuries add up over the course of the season, when largebodies collide at high speeds week after week. And as the playerscontinue to get bigger and faster, the collisions get increasinglymore violent."Energy is mass times velocity squared. The more you weigh andthe faster you go, the bigger the impact," Grelsamer said.Some players may get injured, but nearly all play hurt.Snee compared football to 60 minutes of fighting. During theseason, even a firm handshake can be painful for Authentic Chris Johnson Jersey the 6-foot-3,317-pound lineman.And no one who plays in the NFL is completely healthy - or everwill be again, according to giants defensive end OsiUmenyiora."I haven't been 100 percent since [college]," he said."Everybody in the NFL, there's no player who's played over a yearwho physically will ever feel 100 percent ever again."But players do it because they love the game and because themoney they earn may have to support them later in life."It's sort of the running joke, 'Man, wait til we're 55.' Butthat's why we get paid a lot of money," Tollefson said. "We'regetting paid for maybe something we might go through in the future.What's going to happen when we're 45, 50 years old and maybe Ican't do a job that someone else can do? I'm making that money nowbecause I'm going to need it on the back end."That's why some players are fanatical about injury management,warning that letting Authentic Aaron Curry Jersey something as innocent as an ankle sprain gountreated is asking for trouble.Tollefson and Canty do Andre Johnson Authentic Jersey heavy weight lifting early in the week towork through soreness and build their muscles back up. And like therest of their teammates, they use a combination of hot and coldwater therapy.Their bodies are their livelihoods in a league where just apercentage of contracts are guaranteed and where Pro Bowlers canget released simply for getting hurt - as long-time giants offensive line stalwartsShaun O'Hara and Rich Seubert unexpectedly discovered in July.So many torture themselves in the off-season to prepare for therigors of the season."When you've been through surgeries like me and you've gotscrews and a cleaned out ankle and both feet, it's kind of tough,"running back Ahmad Bradshaw said. "I beat myself up in theoff-season to where I can stand the pain."Players also seek methods to avoid Authentic Brian Orakpo Jersey painkillers, given the Authentic Andre Johnson Jersey riskof addiction - as high as four times that of the general populationfor retired players, according to a recent study.giants punter Steve Weatherford,receiver Hakeem Nicks and linebacker Michael Boley use a hyperbaricchamber to help speed the healing process.That's because the only thing worse than playing hurt is notplaying at all."You can never replace that team feeling, going out there andworking together, all striving for one goal," Snee said. "Youdefinitely feel out of place [on the sidelines]."

SCHOTTY HANDLES CRITICS WITH CLASS, JUST LIKE DAD
    12:56 AM ETEAST RUTHERFORD - Brian Schottenheimer learned his lesson earlyin life - being a coach means being criticized. What once wasdirected at his father, former NFL coach Marty, now comes at him asJets offensive coordinator.As the unit he coaches sputtered and coughed its way into thesixth game of the season Monday night against Miami, a 24-6 Jets' victory, Schottenheimer'sonce-budding reputation has stalled Randall Cobb Jersey Authentic as well. But rather than usinghis time or energy to respond to critics who lambaste hisplay-calling and stew over the Jets' 29th overall offensive rankingheading into Monday night, Schottenheimer remembers how it felt tohave a ringside seat to the craziness. And he remembers how wellhis dad deflected the barbs."A long time ago, I'll never forget, we were at breakfast oneday after the [Kansas City Chiefs] lost [to the Dolphins],"Schottenheimer recalled the other day. "Nick Lowery missed like a50-yard field goal. And we were at the breakfast table and someguys were talking about the game and talking about, 'Boy, MartySchottenheimer, he doesn't know what he's doing. That guy's abozo,' this and that. And so my mom and I and [my] sister were kindof stewing, like, 'Can you believe this?' "His dad said nothing, but what happened next has stayed withBrian in a much stronger way than any words."All my dad did when we were done [was] he walked over andintroduced himself. He said, 'How are you doing? I'm MartySchottenheimer. I don't take myself too seriously. I do the best Ican,' Authentic Randall Cobb Jersey " Brian said. "The guy sent him like a five-page letter inthe mail apologizing. 'I didn't know you were there. I'm sorry.Thank you for what you've done in Kansas City.'"All you can do is handle yourself with class. I think my fatherdid that."In today's 24/7 news-cycle world, Brian Schottenheimer needsmore than those old-school coping methods to survive. With theexplosion of television, sports-talk radio and social media outletsgiving experts Randall Cobb Jersey and fans countless platforms to hurl opinions, thecircus has grown exponentially. Now the son is the target, smack inthe middle of the biggest ring. And now the question is whetherhe'll ever get the chance to be his own ringmaster.It was only two years ago that Schottenheimer turned down achance to interview for the head coaching opening in Buffalo,choosing instead to continue working with Jets coach Rex Ryan, the architectof New York's defense. Schottenheimer wanted to finish the SuperBowl work he was confident would be completed with the Jets long before it would with afranchise that -- at the time -- represented the dregs of the AFCEast.But here's the cruel reality of the NFL coaching fraternity.Windows open slowly, but close quickly.What once seemed inevitable for a hot young assistant coach witha famous last name and a strong family legacy has taken a sharpturn onto a cold and lonely road without a clear destination. Ahead coaching job seems awfully far away now, lost in a haze ofslow starts, inconsistent play and, lately, reports of in-housegrumbling. With play-calling that won't seem to commit itself tothe ground-and-pound philosophy Green Bay Packers Randall Cobb Jersey Ryan is loyal to or the air-it-outaggressiveness Santonio Holmes complains doesn't happen enough,Schottenheimer is caught playing tug of war with himself.And he never stops hearing about it."In all reality, it comes with the territory," he said. "I dothe best I can. This staff works our tails off. We have to be moreconsistent. And when you're not winning games and there are thingsyou're missing, you're going to take heat in the position I'm in.... I think the first year or two on the job you kind of [say],'Boy, that's unfair.' But again, I think I've probably had alifestyle of learning about it. For the last couple of years, Ijust realized it's a long season. It's a marathon."Yet the Jets' offense under Schottenheimer'sdirection is running out of room to catch up. The three-game losingstreak heading into Monday night's game had to be halted, and asmuch as Ryan's defense needs to shore itself up against the run,it's up to the offense to get this team moving. Despite Ryan'sprofessed encouragement over signs of improvement during lastweek's loss at New England, the offense left the field inthree-and-out disappointment seven times in 11 possessions.And despite Holmes' public stance that more downfield shotswould come with better offensive line play - an assertion thatthreatens to tear at the very fabric of the locker room - veteranrunning back LaDainian Tomlinson believes it's merely a demand forbetter execution. If players did their jobs better, Schottenheimerwould look better, too."It's unfair, because he's not the one that's out there throwingthe ball, catching it, running it, blocking," Tomlinson said. "Hecan't do any of that."What he can do is rely on the lessons of his life, the ones hisfather lived."It's funny, because I used to be on the other side of it. Iused to be the guy in school getting in fights with kids talkingabout my dad, and now you sit there and you worry about your kidsand stuff," Schottenheimer said. "The thing I took from New England Patriots Albert Haynesworth Jersey him, you dothe best you can; you have trust in yourself and what you're doing.You stay true to yourself, and if you do that, at the end of theday, you have that to fall back on."E-mail: sullivan@northjersey.com

  GIANTS NOTES
    12:56 AM ETBig day for BallardKevin Boss' shadow no longer looms nearly as large.Jake Ballard set career highs in receptions (five) and receivingyards (81) Sunday as he continues to blossom as the Giants starting tight end. He caughtall five passes thrown to him.Ballard understands why fans were upset when Boss signed withOakland, leaving Ballard, Travis Beckum and Bear cheap nfl jerseys free shipping Pascoe to fill thegap."He was dynamite. A great, great player, blocker, receivingthreat," Ballard said of Boss. "You got some guy coming in whoreally hasn't had any experience, I'd be Randall Cobb Authentic Jersey a little New England Patriots Albert Haynesworth Authentic Jersey iffy, too."But Ballard, who has 15 catches for 273 yards, is on pace tosurpass Boss' 2010 production (35 catches, 531 yards).Tuck: I'm playingJustin Tuck (groin/neck) is tired of answering questions abouthis injuries after missing his third straight game and fourth ofthe season.

Miami," he said of the Giants' next game on Oct. 30.Tuck said he feels much better and a doctor told him he isprogressing. That's good news for him because he said he can'tstand being on the sidelines any longer."I'm not looking at the George Washington Bridge and Matt Forte Jersey havingfunny thoughts about jumping off it anymore," he said.Manningham robbed?Mario Manningham appeared to have caught a 37-yard touchdown inthe third quarter, making Authentic Matt Forte Jersey the reception and taking two steps beforebeing Authentic New England Patriots Albert Haynesworth Jersey tackled in the end zone by CB Terrence McGee and the ballpopping up.But officials ruled it an incompletion.Coach Tom Coughlin challenged the ruling, but it was upheld.

  Eagles trade Brown, reacquire Harrison
    6:27 AM ETIF THE CALENDAR says mid-October, the Eagles must have just traded forJerome Harrison.Harrison, a 28-year-old running back, arrived in a deal withDetroit just wholesale nfl jerseys before the 4 p.m. NFL trade deadline yesterday, a yearand 5 days after coming to the Eagles in a similar trade fromCleveland.This time, the disappointing free-agent signee exiled in favorof LeSean McCoy Jersey Authentic Harrison was Ronnie Brown, not Mike Bell. They were pretty muchthe same player, except Bell never tried to throw the ball whilebeing swarmed at the goal line, only LeSean McCoy Authentic Jersey to end up fumbling away pointsin a 24-23 loss the way Brown did Oct. 2 against the 49ers."He fits a zone [blocking] scheme. He has good vision,instincts, runs downhill, and has quick feet," Eagles general manager Howie Rosemansaid when asked about Harrison by the team website. "He's a greatcharacter guy and will do whatever we ask him to do. He can catchthe football. We're really excited about him joining LeSean McCoyand Dion Lewis."The Eagles liked Harrison last year,much more than they liked Bell, but after gaining 239 yards on only40 Eagles carries, 6 yards a pop,Harrison wanted to sign in free agency with a team that might givehim more opportunities than he seemed destined for with thepass-happy Eagles, playing behind emerging starLeSean McCoy.The Birds signed Brown, the former Dolphins star, and Harrisonended up with the Lions, where he didn't get the kind of work hemight have expected. Harrison managed only 14 carries for 41yards."I didn't know if somebody was playing or not, but then once Irealized it was serious, I was like 'cool,' you know, play for agreat coach, great organization," Harrison told the Eagles' website. "The week off willbe huge to get back in the playbook and start hearing theterminology again. I have been checking out the Eagles to Authentic DeSean Jackson Jersey see how LeSean is doing,and he's doing great. I'm excited to be back."Brown, 29, the Jeremy Maclin Authentic Jersey second player taken in the 2005 draft, was partof the "Dream Team" free-agent splurge of last summer, albeit asmall part, along with such already-departed names as tight endDonald Lee and wideout Johnnie Lee Higgins. Brown was never goingto have a big role unless McCoy got hurt, but the Eagles seemed reluctant to use himin the short-yardage job Nnamdi Asomugha Authentic Jersey fans envisioned, and Brown seemed slowerthan advertised. He gained 38 yards on 13 carries.Eagles fans might have been hopingfor bigger Michael Vick Jersey Authentic news yesterday, but football is not a sport in whichteams generally make Nnamdi Asomugha Jersey Authentic season-altering deals at the deadline. Therewere reports that the Birds made it clear cornerback Asante Samuelwas available, as he has been since the acquisition of Jeremy Maclin Jersey Authentic DominiqueRodgers-Cromartie and Nnamdi Asomugha.With Brandon Graham presumably coming off the physically unableto perform list within a few weeks, the Eagles probably were interested injettisoning a defensive end, but that didn't happen, either.There were reports that the Raiders checked out Eagles quarterback Vince Youngbefore acquiring Carson Palmer from the Bengals for a first-roundpick and a second-rounder that apparently can become a first.For more Eagles coverage and opinion, readthe Daily News' Eagles blog, Eagletarian, atwww.eagletarian.com.

Colts-Saints Preview
    3:00 PM ETIt's been nearly two years since a soaking-wet Sean Payton Ray Lewis Jersey Authentic wascarried off the field following his New Orleans Saints' Super Bowlvictory over Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts.After a collision last week injured his knee and left leg,Payton won't be on the sidelines for Sunday night's rematch, whileManning won't be on the field once again for the winless Colts.Payton was hurt during New Orleans' 26-20 loss at Tampa Bay whentight end Jimmy Graham was tackled into him. The coach had surgeryMonday to repair a torn meniscus and a broken tibia.Payton will likely be confined to the press box during hisrecovery, which is expected to take three to six months, meaningthe Saints (4-2) will have to adjust quickly."He's just got a kind of presence and moxie that when you're onthe sideline you look for," guard Carl Nicks said. "He's yellingand he's calling the plays. He's getting everybody situated. Youcan take it for granted. He's our leader, you know? So Authentic Joe Flacco Jersey it's kind ofweird."If any team knows the uneasiness of losing a leader, it's theColts (0-6). They haven't been the same since losing Manningindefinitely following his third neck surgery in 19 months.After being confined to the press box earlier this season, Ray Rice Authentic Jersey hewas on the sidelines for yet another close loss for his team lastSunday, a 27-17 defeat in Cincinnati.Curtis Painter's 1-yard touchdown pass to Dallas Clark cutIndianapolis' deficit to three points in the fourth quarter, butthe Bengals blocked Adam Vinatieri's Authentic Charles Woodson Jersey 52-yard field goal attempt andreturned a late fumble 35 yards for a score, one of three turnoversfor the Colts."We're hurting ourselves," center Jeff Saturday said. "We'redoing things that, we talk about week in and week out, we can't Charles Woodson Authentic Jersey do.Lose the turnover battle. Make mistakes at critical times in thegame. It's little things here and there."Indianapolis has dropped each of its past five games by 10points or fewer Authentic Ray Rice Jersey and is off Authentic Ray Lewis Jersey its worst start since beginning the 1997season 0-10. The Colts' streak of Ray Lewis Authentic Jersey nine seasons with 10 or more winscould officially end this week."We've been to the mountaintop," defensive end Robert Mathissaid. "We're in the valley low right now. Got to keepfighting."The Saints, meanwhile, will try to bounce back from their firstloss in five games. Drew Brees set an NFL record by topping 350yards passing for the fourth consecutive contest last Sunday, buthe also threw three interceptions - including one in the end zonewith 3:16 remaining.Pierre Thomas' fumble in the first quarter was converted into afield goal, and New Orleans was held to a season-low 70 yards onthe ground."They took the ball away four times, which if you do that you'regoing to win a lot of games," Brees said. "We gave it away fourtimes. The fact of the matter is that will get you beat."The Saints forced the only turnover in their Super Bowl victorywith Tracy Porter's 74-yard interception return for a touchdownthat all but put the game away. Payton also made the bold decisionto call for an onside kick to begin the second half, which NewOrleans recovered.That led to one of Brees' two touchdown passes during his SuperBowl MVP performance, but he was intercepted twice during his lastregular-season matchup with the Colts, a 41-10 Indianapolis routSept. 6, 2007.Manning had 288 yards passing and three TDs in that game, andJoseph Addai rushed for 118 yards and a score. Addai, however,missed last week's game because of an injured right hamstring, andhis Ray Rice Jersey Authentic status for Sunday is unclear.Rookie wholesale jerseys from china left tackle Anthony Castonzo, the team's first-rounddraft pick, is dealing with a sprained ankle ahead of Indianapolis'first visit to the Superdome since 2003.The Colts claimed a 55-21 victory that year as Manning had acareer-high six touchdown passes, a mark he tied the nextseason.The teams have split their 10 regular-season meetings.

  Authentic Ed Reed Jersey Would Al Davis approve of Palmer trade?
    3:00 PM ETIf Joe Flacco Authentic Jersey Al Davis had made a trade like this four decades ago, getting a guy like Carson Palmer for two first-round draft choices, he would have been called a genius.If he would have done it in the past decade? He would have been laughed at.        /*.vxpMultiLiteControlBar        {            visibility: hidden;            height: 0px;        }        .vxpMultiLiteAd        {            visibility: hidden;            height: 0px;        }*/        .vxpMultiLiteTitle        {            visibility: hidden;            height: 0px;        }        .vxpMultiLiteExpandedInfo        {            visibility: hidden;            height: 0px;        }        .vxpMultiLiteExtraRow        {            visibility: hidden;            height: 0px;        }        .vxpMultiLiteMetadata        {            visibility: hidden;            height: 0px;        }    MsnVideoUx.render("StoryPageV5InlineVideo", "fs-article-inline-video-player-1", {"StoryPageV5InlineVideoReferenceId.DefaultVideo": {videoQuery: {videoFilter: {type: "Uuid", uuids: ["4dceef42-065e-4cba-8c3b-7244cd4845b6"]}}}}, {csid:"ux-cms-en-us-sports"});Less than two weeks after Davis died, his coach, Hue Jackson, now in complete control of the Raiders, made the trade Tuesday. He got Palmer, the QB he had wanted all year but couldn’t get Davis to bring in.The need hadn’t been there. The desperation wasn’t there, as the Raiders finally were looking good again. Then quarterback Jason Campbell broke his collarbone. And Jackson, running wild while free of Davis, gave up way too much for an aging quarterback with a bum elbow.Palmer had lost his desire after fading for three years, and chose to retire this season rather than play for Cincinnati again.But the Bengals still held his rights. So they got something big for nothing. That’s the best deal Jackson could cut.If Davis were still here, would he have made this trade?Hell yes. He would have loved it, risking everything, selling off the future for now, now, now. In fact, in some ways, this trade comes off as a tribute to him.And it’s funny seeing some analysts say stuff like that, because I think they mean it as an insult to Davis, Jackson and Palmer all in one. It’s as if they’re Joe Flacco Jersey Authentic saying, “Yes, Davis would have made a crazy deal like that for a washed-up player. That’s why the Raiders have been such a joke for so long.’’But they Ed Reed Authentic Jersey manage to say it lovingly somehow.As Davis Charles Woodson Jersey Authentic got older, he lost his way. He didn’t know how to do it anymore. He became too enamored with just getting the best athlete, no matter what Ed Reed Jersey Authentic else went with that. He didn’t care how the pieces fit together, and whether that talent came with brains or responsibility, or whether it showed up half an hour late to practice or with a mug shot.Davis couldn’t understand the concept that some players today won’t do every last thing to win, that winning isn’t the only thing to them, or even the most important thing. He couldn’t even recognize it, couldn’t connect with it.

 things just go your way.That hasn't been the case often this season for the Eagles. But on Sunday, the kind ofbounces, Randall Cobb Jersey tips, and calls that so often conspired against themturned in their favor, and so did the final score.No Eagle had a clear explanation forthe change in luck, but they all welcomed the development."You've just got to get some stuff to bounce your waysometimes," wide receiver Jason Avant said. "It's great when itdoes."Take this drive from the second quarter: On first and 10 fromhis own 47-yard-line, quarterback Michael Vick found tight endBrent Celek open - only Celek batted the ball into the air asdefenders closed in on him. Reaching back, he tipped it againbefore making the catch.In recent weeks, that kind of play turned into momentum-changinginterceptions. Against the Bills a week ago, Avant joked that itseemed that if 10 defenders were on one side of the field, a tippedpass still would find the lone man on the other side. This time,though, Celek showed incredible focus to bring the ball down."Brent's play, the juggling catch, was a great way to describethe concentration we had New England Patriots Albert Haynesworth Authentic Jersey in the first half," Avant said.The Eagles were sharper and moreaggressive overall. That helped in some cases.Four plays after Celek's catch, Vick threw a swing pass towardJeremy Maclin, but the ball was batted high into the air. Again, itlooked like a turnover waiting to happen. Instead, Maclin pursuedthe ball and caught it. The Green Bay Packers Randall Cobb Jersey Eagles got a field goal.This all came after an early drive on which a shotgun snapintended for running back LeSean McCoy sailed high into the Eagles' end zone. Vick raced toretrieve the ball and throw it away and was hit in the head bylinebacker Rocky McIntosh. A near disaster turned into a 15-yardgain on a roughing-the-passer penalty and a first down. The Eagles drove for a touchdown.For once, the other team was making the silly mistakes that ledto points. And though one Vick pass that was tipped was Randall Cobb Jersey Authentic picked off,the ball more often caromed the Eagles' way.The turnaround is a reminder that for all the film study andlate-night planning that goes New England Patriots Albert Haynesworth Jersey into each game, there are elementsthat can't be controlled. Players just have to control how theyreact to them."That's football," defensive tackle Cullen Jenkins said."Sometimes they don't go your way, and sometimes they do. Authentic New England Patriots Albert Haynesworth Jersey You'vejust got to try to fight through them when they're not going yourway.

    12:28 PM ETThe Vikings will wait until Wednesday toannounce their starting quarterback for Sunday's game against GreenBay.That leaves plenty of time for friendly debate about whichquarterback deserves the job.Minnesota can start the Christian Ponder era in earnest or stayloyal to Donovan McNabb, the 13-year veteran who guides a feeble Vikings passing attack.The goal: Inject life into a dispirited locker cheap nfl jerseys free shipping room after a 1-5start. Rebuilding for 2012 is not yet on coach Leslie Frazier'sradar."The only criteria, the only qualifier, is what's best for ourteam," Frazier said about what factors into the decision. "And thatwill be the criteria we use when we sit down and continue thesediscussions over the Matt Forte Jersey next couple Authentic Matt Forte Jersey days. That's what this will bebased on."The Vikings don't want to make a habitof switching quarterbacks, hoping the eventual move to Ponder willsatisfy for the long term.First they must Matt Forte Authentic Jersey determine whether he's ready to play now,weighing Ponder's upside against McNabb's experience.McNabb played his best statistical Randall Cobb Authentic Jersey game of the year Sunday atChicago, completing 19 of 24 passes for 177 yards. Authentic Randall Cobb Jersey But the offensefailed to generate momentum in key situations during a 39-10 lossto the Bears. Ponder entered the game in the fourth quarter andcompleted 9 of 17 passes for 99 yards.Naturally, the only way to resolve the quarterback issue is witha tale of the tape.Experience: McNabb is a 13-year veteran; Ponder is a rookie.Advantage: McNabbAccuracy: McNabb has had his share of bounced throws; Ponderlikes the high heat. But can it be much worse than McNabb at thispoint?Advantage: PonderTurnovers: McNabb plays it safe; Rookies are mistake-prone.Advantage: McNabbArm strength: McNabb can still deliver when given time in thepocket.

Jim Harbaugh Green Bay Packers Nick Collins Authentic Jersey is the Albert Haynesworth Jersey Authentic antidote.Still, a man can get carried away, and in the wake of the SteelCage Handshake, also known as the Schmodown in Motown, the judgmenthere is that Harbaugh went too far when he broke out the joybuzzer.That must have been what Harbaugh used on Lions head coach JimSchwartz. You know, the joke gadget that you hide in your palm,giving a hilarious surprise buzz to the handshakee? I found thebuzzer for sale online for $2.49. It's a classic staple of thesurprise-humor genre, along with the whoopee cushion and plasticdog poop.What else could have gotten such a rise out of Schwartz? Heseems like such an easygoing, laid-back guy.There could be fallout from Shakegate. NFL Commissioner RogerGoodell might declare a moratorium on postgame handshakes betweencoaches.Commish, before you do that, think of the kids who take theirbehavior cues from Authentic Nick Collins Jersey what they see on TV. If they can't watchfootball coaches shaking hands after games, where will our nation'syouth learn to express the false sincerity they'll need to besuccessful adults?Every sport has a unique postgame ritual. A quick overview:-- Baseball: Just about the only sport where the losers arerequired to slink off the field and not interact with the winners.The opposing managers don't even make eye contact with oneanother.The winning team's players saunter onto the field and form ahigh-five line, except for the Boston Red Sox, who skip thecelebration and hurry back to the clubhouse so as not to miss lastcall.-- Basketball: Random milling of players from the two teams,with informal exchanging of bro-hugs soul shake with lean-inshoulder-bump and back-slap. The coaches sometimes shake hands withone another and compare notes on their tailors.-- Hockey: After playoff games, teams line up and players seemto be shaking hands, although actually they are giving back teeththey've acquired during the game. The coaches shake hands with oneanother and exchange wholesale jerseys from china a few words in Canadian.-- Soccer: Players mill about, trading sweaty jerseys. Someplayers shake hands with their foes, then fall down and act as ifthey've been trampled by buffaloes, because you can't just flip aswitch to turn on and off that behavior.If there's a theme in the above, it's that over the years sportshas gotten too chummy. Baseball has a rule against fraternizationwith players of the opposing team, but the rule is as ignored asbasketball's traveling violation.Before the Cardinals-Brewers NLCS series, because there was somebad blood between the teams, MLB brought both managers together fora private meeting, apparently to lay down some Emily Post rules ofetiquette. It's sad that in a sport that traditionally thrives Green Bay Packers Nick Collins Jersey onsnarling dislike between teams, the sport's leaders would want todull down the fun.That's probably one reason the 49ers' players and fans respond toHarbaugh. He has some rough edges and some antisocial tendenciesthat make the whole deal more intriguing.Handshake Harbaugh did a terrible job Sunday of hiding hiscontempt for the coach who, only hours earlier, had been shoutingderisively at him from across the field. Did Schwartz not realizethe game was televised?Harbaugh, asked Monday if he might need to tone down some of hisbehavior, said, "I'll personally attempt to get better at thepostgame handshake."That's admirable, but it won't be easy. Exuberance is hard tocurb. The 49ers' PR staff will work withHarbaugh, suiting up public-relations boss Bob Lange in catcher'sgear to serve as the coach's handshake sparring partner.To explain to Harbaugh how innocent gestures sometimes can bemisinterpreted or blown out of proportion, the PR staff will showhim video of last month's fight in which Floyd Mayweather Jr. tapsVictor Ortiz twice in the cheek during a break, knocking him coldwhile trying to say, "Let's get back to work!"Schwartz complained in his Monday news conference that Harbaughhad violated football "protocol."Harbaugh is no Rex Ryan. The 49ers' head coach isn'tintentionally hogging the spotlight, either for self-promotion orto take pressure off his players. Harbaugh is like Garth Brooks inthe song "Low Places" - "Well I'm not big on social graces ..."But if someone were to take poll of all the NFL players in thewake of The Handshake and ask, "Which coach would you rather playfor, Harbaugh or Schwartz?" Harbaugh wins by a landslide." That's probably one reason the 49ers' players and fans Nick Collins Jersey respond toHarbaugh. He has some rough edges and some antisocial tendenciesthat make the whole deal more intriguing."

  Panthers could switch to 3-4 defense at some point
    4:02 PM ETCHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP)The Panthers are thinking about changing up how they line up ondefense.Carolina showed a new wrinkle on Nick Collins Jersey Authentic Sunday against the AtlantaFalcons, lining up in a 3-4 defense for the first time under newcoach Ron Rivera. It was only for three plays, but the 3-4 lookcould become a more permanent Carolina fixture down the road.It wouldn't be a surprise. Rivera ran the 3-4 last year workingas the defensive coordinator for the San Diego Chargers and thatunit finished first in the league in total defense.Panthers defensive coordinator Sean McDermott said it's tooearly to know if he'll use the 3-4 scheme next season, noting thatmight include some personnel changes to better fit the defense.''We have to see how comfortable the players are and also youlook at your opponents in the division and outside of thedivision,'' McDermott said.However, McDermott made it clear the Panthers would like to movetoward becoming a full-time 3-4 defense.''Ron and I have gotten together on it over the summer and it'ssomething we wanted to evolve to, so we're going to have that inthe game plan (this year) whether we use it or not,'' McDermottsaid.McDermott believes the 3-4 alignment might be the best way todefend NFL teams in the coming years because of the type ofathletes coming out of college.''You're seeing more hybrid type guys with the tight ends, whichare more wideouts now,'' McDermott said. Authentic Green Bay Packers Nick Collins Jersey ''You're seeing the samething on the defensive side with 3-4 type defenses. You take adefensive end that isn't a true defensive end in terms of (weight)and they're going to let him come off the edge once inawhile.''On Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons, the Panthers lined up inthe 3-4 look for three plays.They used Ron Fields at nose tackle sandwiched in between endsTerrell McClain and Greg Hardy. Dan Connor and James Anderson werethe middle linebackers, allowing Charles Johnson and AntwanApplewhite to stand up at outside linebacker.Applewhite, who was brought in two weeks ago because theflexibility he offers, played outside linebacker last year forRivera in San Diego, but he's one of the few Carolina defenders whohave played that style.''It's a new concept here, so it's something you have to rep tomake sure everybody is on the same page,'' Applewhite said. ''Thecouple of plays were ran it, it did all right. One play they got abig run off of it when a guy wasn't in the right gap. That'ssomething where you look at the film and then fix it inpractice.''Applewhite believes the Panthers have what it takes to run the3-4 scheme.''I feel like we have the personnel New England Patriots Chad Ochocinco Authentic Jersey here to do it,'' Applewhitesaid. ''You just need outside linebackers that can set the edge anddisrupt. Charles Johnson is a multi-talented player. It's somethinghe should be able to do quite well.''The Panthers added two big nose tackles after the start of theseason, signing free agent Ron Fields and claiming Frank Kearse offwaivers. That helps give the Panthers some flexibility upfront.''We have some players to work with there and that's a good signfor us,'' McDermott said.Johnson, the team's highest-paid player and leader in sacks,said he thought it was ''cool'' to get a chance Albert Haynesworth Authentic Jersey to stand up andrush from the outside.''You get to see things just by standing up,'' he said. ''It wasall right. We only ran it a couple of times, but you can rush thepasser a little bit better just by standing up because you can seeit better.''So how much will the Panthers use the 3-4 defense over the final10 games?McDermott, whose coaching background is in the 4-3 defense, saidthat largely depends on how the Panthers progress with learning thescheme and whether or not it fits their personnel.''I know he feels very confident in the 3-4 and what it bringsto the table and knows it's strengths and weaknesses and that'spart of the reason quite frankly that I came down here (fromPhiladelphia) Nick Collins Authentic Jersey so we could merge our systems together,'' McDermottsaid. ''And I think in due time you will see that and you will seethe effectiveness of both the 4-3 and 3-4.''

 6:36 PM ETReady or not, here the Washington Redskins come.Coaches and almost 90 players spent the last 17 days cramming anentire offseason's worth of player acquisitions, practicerepetitions and film study sessions before the product goes ondisplay Friday night in Nnamdi Asomugha Jersey Authentic the Redskins' preseason opener againstthe Pittsburgh Steelers at FedEx Field.The four-month NFL lockout has forced all Michael Vick Jersey Authentic 32 teams to playcatch-up since the league reopened for LeSean McCoy Jersey Authentic business July 26, and Fridaythe Redskins will measure their progressagainst an opponent for the first time."It's weird that we're playing," defensive coordinator JimHaslett said. "It doesn't seem like Jeremy Maclin Authentic Jersey there should be a game in suchshort a time. From that standpoint, I'm looking forward to seeinghow those guys interact with each other."The compressed calendar makes this game much more intriguingthan the usual preseason opener.Several veterans acquired in the past two weeks are expected tomake their Redskins debuts, along with 12 draftpicks. Washington's starting quarterback competition will begin toplay out, and returning players can show what they learned fromcoach Mike Shanahan's 6-10 debut season.Quarterback Rex Grossman is the headliner. John Beck'savailability is doubtful because of a strained groin that limitedhim in practice all week, so Grossman should get the first crack atproving himself worthy of the starting job.He started the final three games last season and finished with apasser rating of 81.2 - the best season-ending mark of hiseight-year career. It's a minuscule sample size but large enough toinstill self-confidence."I feel like I have a good understanding of the offense and whatKyle [Shanahan, the offensive coordinator] is asking me to do,"Grossman said. "I fully understand the verbiage and all that. It'sjust getting my body and my mind to go through the progressions asI need."Grossman has said he expects to play at least into the secondquarter. Because the Redskins will need to see Beck playwhen he is healthy in the coming weeks, Grossman must takeadvantage of an extended opportunity against Pittsburgh's veterandefense."I have high expectations ... but I do understand that some ofthese guys are a little bit more rusty than you would expect, andthat comes when they don't have the reps," Kyle Shanahan said."Everyone's reps are at least cut in half, missing those 14 OTAdays. It will be a new experience for all of us."Several other offensive elements warrant monitoring, as well.The Redskins are debuting a reworkedoffensive line with former guard Will Montgomery starting at centerand free agent Chris Chester starting at right guard.The competition at receiver is particularly intense. Washingtondrafted three receivers, traded for veteran Jabar Gaffney andsigned free agent Donte' Stallworth. Three new faces at runningback are veteran Tim Hightower and draft picks Roy Helu and EvanRoyster."Last year, we kind of knew who our guys were ... and the depthwasn't there," Kyle Shanahan Authentic DeSean Jackson Jersey said. "I think we've got better depththis year. There's going to be some competition in there from thefirst quarter all the way to the fourth."On defense, nose tackle Barry Cofield is one of four projectedstarters acquired via free agency in the offseason. Right defensiveend Stephen Bowen and cornerback Josh Nnamdi Asomugha Authentic Jersey Wilson are expected to play.Safety Oshiomogho Atogwe's Redskins debut might have to waitbecause of a hamstring injury.First-round pick Ryan Authentic LeSean McCoy Jersey Kerrigan will play for the first time atleft outside Jeremy Maclin Jersey Authentic linebacker after playing defensive end in college.Considering all the new parts, the defense needs these preseasongames to jell.For Cofield, it's a matter of mastering his newresponsibilities. He came from the New York Giants' 4-3 defense;now he's playing a new position in a 3-4."You understand that your technique and certain things may notbe there, but your effort and your mentality and youraggressiveness have to be there, regardless," he said. "It may notbe perfect, but as long as guys are flying around and playing hard,I think we'll be happy."

  Bengals can move on without Palmer
    6:32 PM ETCINCINNATI (AP)By trading their franchise quarterback, the Cincinnati Bengalscan finally move on.The Bengals ended nine months of uncertainty Tuesday when theydealt Carson Palmer to Oakland for a pair of draft picks. Palmertold the Bengals in January that he wouldn't play for them againand he wanted a trade, something that owner Mike Brown hadadamantly refused.Shortly before the trading deadline, Brown did an about-face andtraded Palmer for first-round and second-round picks, a better dealthan they'd expected for the 31-year-old quarterback. Coach MarvinLewis indicated he would have preferred trading Palmer earlier, butBrown wasn't ready until the Raiders' offer came along.''My boss is a very patient man,'' Lewis said. ''Don't want toplay poker with him, do you?''The Bengals can move ahead without having to account for Palmerin the budget. They had to set aside money to account for hissalary should DeSean Jackson Jersey he change his mind and show up to play. Palmer had abase salary of $11.5 million this season, with three more yearsleft on his deal.Instead of saving budget space, the Bengals can try to extenddeals with other current players.''Now we open up some other doors,'' Lewis said. ''There hasbeen a lot written about, oh, you guys have this much (salary) capspace, but we had to have that Authentic Nnamdi Asomugha Jersey space stay in there because ifCarson were to walk in here, we had to be able to handlethat.''The deal had little impact on his wholesale nfl jerseys former teammates, who knew hewasn't coming back when he told the team in January that he wouldretire rather than play Authentic Michael Vick Jersey another season in Cincinnati. The Bengalshave only two winning records in the last 20 years.The message board by the LeSean McCoy Authentic Jersey entrance to the Bengals' locker roomTuesday had an anonymous scrawled message: ''Let My PeopleGoooooo!'' Otherwise, there wasn't much reaction.''I don't think even one player in this locker room's eventhought about that,'' left tackle Andrew Whitworth said. ''Wehaven't worried Michael Vick Authentic Jersey about it. We've gone forward with the guys we haveand tried to play as good as we can and that's all we can do.''Palmer's former teammates were glad that he finally received hiswish. Palmer was the first overall pick in 2003 and led Cincinnatito those two winning seasons, only to have his career interruptedby knee and elbow injuries.''Kudos to Carson,'' offensive lineman Bobbie Williams said.''Just good luck to everybody. I don't know about the details, butwhatever it is, I'm pretty sure we got what we wanted, he got whathe wanted and we'll go from there.''I'm happy with where we're at. I hope he's happy with wherehe's at. Good luck to him. I mean, who knows?''Williams smiled at the possibility of facing Palmer's Raiders inthe Authentic Jeremy Maclin Jersey playoffs.''You never know,'' he said.Backup quarterback Bruce Gradkowski, a former Raider, saidPalmer fits Oakland's offensive style.''It's going to be a good situation,'' Gradkowski said. ''Theorganization is going in the right direction out there, and it'sgood for Carson to get back and playing some football. Theydefinitely have some talent, and those receivers can run. We're nottoo focused on that around here.''Lewis said that rookie quarterback Andy Dalton's solid play inthe first six games made Brown more comfortable with tradingPalmer. Dalton said on Tuesday that he never felt like hisperformance would figure in what happened with Palmer.''I knew coming in here that he wasn't going to be here and thatthe job was going to be open,'' Dalton said. ''It's nothing thatI've worried about.''Palmer's former teammates said they hold no grudges.''I think guys respect him,'' Whitworth said. ''You realize thathe didn't want to be here and he didn't believe in this place, andyou go forward. You still respect him as a friend and the years weput in together, but you realize that he just made a choice he feltwas best for him and his family.''Lewis appreciated the way Palmer pressed his case for a tradebehind the scenes, avoiding media interviews and publicposturing.''I think Carson has handled this like the man he DeSean Jackson Authentic Jersey is,'' Lewissaid, ''and that's been great.''

Dudley's starting quarterback was slammed to theturf and required help getting off the field after injuring hisnon-throwing shoulder.The game took another bleak turn for the Panthers when backup QB Adrian Sladetossed a pick-six on his first pass, allowing Western Guilford toclose within a single score in the fourth quarter.But the senior rebounded minutes later, connecting with BrandonReynolds on a long touchdown pass that proved the winning points inDudley's 20-13 Metro 4-A Conference victory against the Hornets onFriday night at Western.It marked the second straight week Slade threw for agame-winning score. The victory was Dudley's fourth consecutive,evened Ray Lewis Jersey Authentic its record at .500 and secured an automatic playoff berth,ensuring the Panthers finish no worse than thirdin the conference.But Dudley (4-4, 4-0), once reeling after losing its first fourgames, all versus non-conference foes, is looking for even more.The Panthers host undefeated Page onFriday in a game that could decide the Metro 4-A Conference title,depending on what Southeast Guilford does."It makes me feel proud of my team. At first we weren't workingas a team, but now we finally got it down pat," Reynolds said,before turning his attention to the Pirates. "If everybody comesout and works hard and do their job like we've been doing, weshould win ."Anthony Lamb caught a touchdown, an interception and blocked afield goal to lead Dudley.Demetrius McCorkle rushed for 89 yards and a score on 14 carriesand Keenon Sharpe toted the ball 13 times for 56 Authentic Ed Reed Jersey yards.Western (3-6, 3-2) had its chances, Authentic Ray Lewis Jersey but scored zero points onthree first-half trips into the Dudley red zone. An 11-play drivethat melted 6 minutes off the clock stalled when the Hornets turnedthe ball over on downs at the Dudley 20.Tray Miller, who returned his second interception of the game 78yards for a score early in the wholesale jerseys from china fourth quarter, had previously setup Western with a golden opportunity when he returned pick to the Panthers 26 midway through thesecond quarter. The Hornets made it to the 5 before Lamb blocked afield goal attempt."It was tough. We had so many opportunities to score," Westernoffensive lineman Brock Stadnik said.Thompson finished 12 of 34 for 127 yards a TD and twointerceptions."We knew coming in we had a real tough non-conference schedule,"Dudley coach Steven Davis said. "Now I didn't think we were goingto go 0-4 out of it, but we knew we were playing some qualityteams. We were hoping that would prepare us for our conference andon into the playoffs.

Miami Dolphins' all-time leader in receiving yardage, No.2 in receptions and No. 3 in receiving touchdowns, Mark Duper knowsabout playing the position. So when some of Leonard Hankerson'suncles learned that their employer was a close friend of Duper's,they asked if the three-time Pro Bowler would tutor the youngwideout, a rising junior at Miami."When I first started working with him, the talent, mentalityand the ability to play football was Authentic Joe Flacco Jersey there," Duper said recently."But an athlete needs guidance. He needed to learn how to Charles Woodson Authentic Jersey practiceproperly. He needed to learn how to position his hands. He learnedhow to develop himself as a ballplayer."Hankerson, the Redskins' third-round draft pick inApril, was underwhelming during his first two years with theHurricanes. But after working hard with Duper and youth coach JackDoucett - his uncles' employer - Hankerson departed among Miami'stop five receivers Ed Reed Authentic Jersey in career yardage, receptions andtouchdowns.Entering Friday's preseason opener against visiting Pittsburgh,Hankerson yearns to prove he belongs among names such as AndreJohnson, Reggie Wayne, Michael Irvin and now-teammate SantanaMoss.Eight receivers were drafted ahead of Hankerson. The Redskins selected two more afterhim, Niles Paul and Aldrick Robinson. Then came the addition of twoveterans, Jabar Gaffney and Donte Stallworth. And just to be safe,the team also signed undrafted wideout Issac Anderson."That's part of the NFL," said Hankerson, who has dazzled attimes during training camp. "Everyone wants to win and everyone'sgoing to do what it takes. As soon as you sign, they go out and tryto find someone better."Hankerson's determination to improve was a driving factor afterhe totaled Authentic Charles Woodson Jersey 17 catches for 203 yards and three touchdowns - anddeveloped a reputation for untimely drops - entering his juniorseason. Duper and Doucett put him through concentration drills andworkouts that were posted to YouTube. Whenever Duper couldn't makeit, Hankerson insisted on continuing the program with Doucett. Abreakout junior year convinced Hankerson to bypass the draft andredouble his effort."We had a goal of catching 10,000 balls over the summer beforehis senior year, and he did it," said Doucett, a lifelong Redskins fan who Ray Rice Jersey Authentic hosted Hankerson'sdraft party and adorned him in the Redskins' cap and Joe Theismannjersey that appeared in photos."We worked even harder, sometimes twice a week," Doucett said."The Miami coaches invited me in to work out with him as much as wewanted. We set goals of 60 catches, 1,100 yards and ninetouchdowns, and he surpassed them."To be precise, Hankerson capped his college career with 72receptions, 1,156 yards and a single-season record 13 TDs. Hefinally was maximizing the athleticism and Joe Flacco Authentic Jersey potential displayed atFort Lauderdale's St. Thomas Aquinas High, where another notedwideout - Cris Carter - was his position coach."When I first got to college, I Ed Reed Jersey Authentic thought it was going to be a loteasier than it was," said Hankerson, explaining his slow start. "Itwas tough going Ray Lewis Authentic Jersey up and competing against everyone. I wasn't reallystaying after practice for extra work. I Authentic Ray Rice Jersey had the ability, but I hadto catch a lot of extra balls."Hankerson typically stays on the field with others afterpractice to work with Redskins receivers coach KeenanMcCardell. He used to hang around after the Redskins' voluntary trainingsessions during the lockout. Duper said Hankerson's work ethic isthe receiver's most-impressive trait, adding that there's nothingwrong with his rather large mitts."He has the opportunity to lock onto a football if his hands arepositioned properly," Duper said. "He was taught all those thingsin our two years and did a great job. Leonard doesn't have badhands; his hands are great."Nonetheless, several balls that Hankerson should've caught havehit the ground in practice. The perception that he's unreliable, inaddition to his lack of blazing speed, helped him fall to the ninthreceiver drafted. But McCardell said Hankerson's physicalattributes - 6-foot-2 and 205 Joe Flacco Jersey Authentic pounds with long arms - will help himoverpower cornerbacks and overcome perceived weaknesses."He's a big target and has a big catch radius," McCardell said."Sometimes balls maybe are not on target, but with his big catchradius he's on target."As far as Duper is concerned, there's no question where hisformer pupil is headed: "I think Leonard Hankerson was a steal inthe third round," Duper said. "I think he's going to be a star inthe NFL and do great things in the NFL."If not, the reason won't be lack of effort.

Given a chance, the kids showed promise
  In Ned Colletti's six years as the Dodgers' general manager, the organization has avoided the biggest free agent names, not even bothering to negotiate with players who signed massive long-term contracts. Instead, the Dodgers focused on one- to three-year contracts to stay with the salary restraints imposed by ownership.They didn't pursue Cliff Lee or CC Sabathia to give the rotation a Matt Forte Authentic Jersey proven ace. They didn't go after Carl Crawford or Adam Dunn to shore up Randall Cobb Jersey Authentic the lineup.When they did spend money, it was two years for Andruw Jones, three years for Jason Schmidt, two years for Manny Ramirez, three years for Juan Uribe. All of those contracts proved a disaster, but at least they were relatively short. The reviews are  mixed, but mostly negative, on the five-year contract they awarded Juan Pierre.Adding a lot of medium-priced parts to the roster hasn't worked, especially the last two years, so Authentic New England Patriots Albert Haynesworth Jersey the focus appears to be shifting this offseason.In prior years, Andre Ethier and Matt Kemp had to wait their turn as Randall Cobb Authentic Jersey veterans Jose Cruz Jr., Luis Gonzalez, Kenny Lofton, Jones and Pierre received more playing time in the outfield.This year, injuries and poor performance forced the Dodgers to trust their youth.Power-hitting prospect Jerry Sands was called up in late April, far earlier than expected, New England Patriots Albert Haynesworth Authentic Jersey and it was probably too soon. The Dodgers trusted speed demon Dee Gordon enough to bring him to the majors in June, also earlier than planned, then traded Rafael Furcal in late July to make permanent room for Gordon at shortstop.When the bullpen was devastated by injuries to Jonathan Broxton, Hong-Chih Kuo and Vicente Padilla, the Dodgers were forced to go young on the roster.They could have used Rubby De La Rosa, Javy Guerra, Josh Lindblom, Kenley Jansen and Scott Elbert in the early part of games while giving save chances to Matt Guerrier and Mike MacDougal.Instead, De La Authentic Randall Cobb Jersey Rosa saved games before moving to the rotation, Guerra became the closer, Jansen evolved into a lights-out setup man, and Elbert was used late in games to retire the toughest opposing lefties.It didn't always work. There certainly were learning curves and struggles for the kids, especially early. But by the end of the year, there were supporting pieces around MVP candidate Kemp and Cy Young front-runner Clayton Kershaw, and the Dodgers improved dramatically to finish 82-79 and in third place New England Patriots Albert Haynesworth Jersey in the NL West.Now the offseason arrives, and around 45 million is coming off the payroll from free agents currently on the roster and disabled list, or already traded away. Additional dead money from the Pierre and Schmidt contracts finally comes off the books.Even more money can be saved if reliever Kuo is non-tendered, or if James Loney is traded.Many raises are coming, though. Kemp and Kershaw will get massive pay hikes. Ethier will get a healthy raise, and so will Loney if he stays.Other players on multiyear contracts -- such as Uribe, Guerrier and Ted Lilly -- took less money in the first year to balance the 2011 budget, so they'll be making more in 2012.Colletti was told by owner Frank McCourt what his budget range will be, and it includes enough to re-sign the team's stars and to compete with other teams for a star on the free agent market. Colletti intimated during the season's final week that he'd like to pursue a big-time run producer for the lineup.If Colletti gets his wish, the Dodgers will spend big -- maybe even nine figures big -- on a big bopper this offseason.That cost would force him to go young and cheap on other parts of the roster.But if the second half of this season is any indication, that's not a bad thing.

  Wright, Collins envision sunny future
  David Wright stood next to Terry Collins in the dugout as the Mets played out the final game of the season. And he had Matt Forte Jersey a message for the first-year manager.David Wright told me on the bench, 'It will get better,' Collins said. And I believe him. I truly, truly believe him. We get Ike Davis back and Daniel Murphy and Jason Bay, it's going to be a different-looking team, and I'm looking forward to it.Collins made it through his first season at the helm with the Mets struggling to a 77-85 record. However, he still drew accolades for keeping the team together through a horrific series of devastating injuries as well as the trades that sent away two key players, Carlos Beltran and Francisco Rodriguez.The Mets were never contenders for anything but a wild card, but they did stay in the race and Randall Cobb Jersey hung around .500 most of the year, which is a credit to Collins, as well as the performance of those traded players before they departed.Wright, who has endured a long, tough tenure as the face of the franchise -- and he might be the last one left if Jose Reyes isn't brought back as he enters free agency -- insisted he was not just cheering Collins up.I mean it, I think there's a lot of optimism moving forward, Wright said. We had some young players come up this year and really make a name for themselves. cheap nfl jerseys free shipping I think that you like the feeling that's in this clubhouse every day because you do have younger players that are bringing that energy, that want to go out there and prove something. That's obviously the right attitude to have.Everybody in here, including myself, is looking forward to some rest. But pretty soon it'll be exciting, get ready to go down to Port St. Lucie. We're taking strides in the right direction, and I'm excited to see where this thing goes.The Mets' hopes Authentic Matt Forte Jersey were buoyed in the final days by a federal judge's verdict that made the ownership group open to a much smaller -- although still considerable -- lawsuit in regards to the Bernie Madoff Ponzi scheme. Whether that means Reyes comes back will be the first true Green Bay Packers Randall Cobb Jersey test. But there is plenty of other work to be done.Healing might be the most important task with Johan Santana finishing out his season of rehabilitation with appearances in the instructional league. Davis avoided surgery, and he expects to be ready for spring training, although that remains a hopeful rather than a sure thing.Collins said he believes Reyes will be back, which is obviously a key, but the team has prepared for a plan B, acclimating Ruben Tejada to the big leagues and to shortstop.Still, talking about this season, what he got from the team, reduced Collins to tears.That's why I told the guys inside, to overcome the adversity they faced all summer long, and accomplish, regardless of wins and losses, to accomplish that, there's energy, that they played the game, Collins said. Yeah, there were nights we got knocked around, but for the most part we competed, 162 times, and that's all I can ever ask of anybody.

 Cardinals vs. Brewers: Cardinals Take 2-1 NLCS Lead over Brewers
  The first four hitters crossed home plate for the Cardinals in Game 3 of the NLCS. That was all they would get all game, and that was all they would need all game.It was expected to be a pitchers duel with both teams putting their aces on the bump. It did become one—once the aces sat down.In fact, the Cardinals, who had the most blown saves of any team but the Washington Nationals this year, were perfect in four innings, not allowing a base runner after Cards ace Chris Carpenter was sent to the showers after only five innings.The Brewers used three different relievers as well, and while they did surrender base runners, they didn't surrender any runs. In Brian Orakpo Authentic Jersey all, the Cardinals stranded nine runners in the game.The Cardinals offense was led by two heroes in particular: Albert Pujols (of course) and David Freese, who has been having a pretty tremendous postseason in his own right. Pujols hit an RBI Aaron Curry Authentic Jersey double, then scored. Chris Johnson Jersey Authentic His Andre Johnson Jersey Authentic next at-bat, hefollowed up with a single. After that, the Brewers Authentic Andre Johnson Jersey just stopped pitching to him, intentionally walking him in his next two trips to the plate.Pujols has now reached in eight of Dallas Clark Authentic Jersey his last nine plate appearances. He has an utterly ridiculous .636 BA for the series, along with a .692 OBP, a 1.273 slugging percentage and an outright obscene 1.985 OPS for the NLCS.Freese was 3-for-5 with a double. Compared Andre Johnson Authentic Jersey to Pujols, his numbers are almost pedestrian, as ridiculous as they are. Freese is "only" hitting .500 in the NLCS, with a paltry .538 OBP Authentic Chris Johnson Jersey and a Authentic Aaron Curry Jersey 1.167 slugging percentage. His "paltry" OPS of 1.705 is 180 points behind PujolsHow will the series endHow will the series endCardinals in 548.8%Cardinals in 637.4%Cardinals in 75.7%Brewers in 78.1%Brewers in 60.0%Total votes: 123Pujols' OPS stands as the highest in NLCS history at present. Freese's is "only" the eighth best.Pujols continued to stockpile his NLCS records, scoring his 24th run, 24th RBI, 75th base and tying Fred McGriff with his eighth double. Pujols also tied Chipper Jones for the second most hits. Pujols now has the NLCS record in home runs, RBI, runs, total bases and doubles. With the two IBBs, he also is now third in NLCS history in walks.If Chris Johnson Authentic Jersey the Brewers have any hope, it is in the fact they've held the Cardinals other big bats, Matt Holliday and Brian Orakpo Jersey Authentic Lance Berkman, in check. Holliday struck out twice with two outs and runners on first and second.The other noteworthy thing worth mentioning is that Jason Motte is starting to look like a reliable closer for the Cardinals, as he shut down the Brewers for four outs—three of which cheap nfl jerseys china were strikeouts.The next pitching matchup will see the Cardinals sending Kyle Lohse to square off against Randy Wolf. Wolf was horrible in his previous postseason start, lasting just three innings and giving up eight hits and seven runs. His ERA against the Red Birds is 5.34.Lohse wasn't much better in his start against Philadelphia, lasting 5.1 innings and yielding six runs—five earned. He does have a 2.37 ERA against the Brewers, though.With a 2-1 series lead and the pitching advantage in the next game, the Cardinals could take a commanding 3-1 series lead tomorrow. After tonight's battle of aces went topsy-turvy, Dallas Clark Jersey Authentic though, there's no telling what will happen.

  Boston Red Sox: Ben Cherington Must Fix Old Problems to Succeed as GM
  With the news that Theo Epstein is leaving his job as the Boston Red Sox general manager to take the same position with the Chicago Cubs, Boston fans immediately began wondering who would replace their wunderkind GM.Well, it seems like we have a definitive answer to that question.Tim Brown of Yahoo! Authentic Dallas Clark Jersey Sports is reporting that Ben Cherington is going to be the man for the job.Cherington is the man who Scott Lauber of the Boston Globe, as well as Aaron Curry Jersey Authentic other Authentic Brian Orakpo Jersey sources close to the situation, expected would be the man to take the job.As his first order of business, Cherington needs Albert Haynesworth Jersey to get rid of the people who are now smearing the Red Sox, past and present.Ben Hohler of the Boston Globe reported that Jon Lester, Josh Beckett and John Lackey were eating chicken and drinking beer in the Boston clubhouse during games when the Red Sox were going through their collapse.Whether or not this is a rare occurrence depends on who you ask.That same article reported that Terry Francona's tumultuous personal life and alleged drug addiction also got in the way of his ability to successfully lead the team.I don't know Francona, so I am not even going to begin to speculate on that. That is none of my business and I will have no problem if I never hear another word on the subject.The same is more or less true with Lester, Beckett and Lackey. I don't know how rare it is to drink beer during a major league game, but I do know that starting pitchers are on their own on days that they don't start.We may never know how true any of these reports are. But true or not, someone is leaking this information out and Cherington needs to get rid of those responsible.If that doesn't happen, no free agent will ever want to go to Boston. Why would you want to go to a team if you can't even trust that members of that organization aren't going to try to smear you?Before Cherington even thinks about what players he wants to keep, get rid of, or bring in, he needs to handle this problem.If he doesn't, the problems in Boston aren't going to get any better.

 PHILADELPHIA -- The Phillies hope Ryan Howard can be back in their lineup in April.Howard had surgery Wednesday morning in Baltimore to repair a completely torn Achilles tendon in his left leg. Foot and ankle specialist Mark Myerson performed the surgery and also administered a PRP injection. The Phillies said the surgery was successful, and general manager Ruben Amaro Jr. said in a statement, "It's going to be five to six months from the surgery until he can play at his accustomed level." Howard tore the Achilles making the final out Friday in Game 5 of the National League Division Series. BenJarvus Green-Ellis Authentic Jersey "A lot depends on how he recovers," Amaro said. "The start of the season could be impacted, but I still hope he makes his first at-bat of the season." The Phillies said Howard will be immobilized one to two weeks, and could begin weight bearing and strength in about a month, but that depends on his recovery.

  Leyland sympathizes with 'banged up' media
             DETROIT -- The ailments of Magglio Ordonez, Delmon Young and Victor Martinez are obvious but, Detroit manager Jim Leyland was asked, how about some of the other limited Tigers?Such as Alex Avila, the durable catcher whose physical woes are more subtly reflected in his uncharacteristic 2-for-29 postseason batting line?"He's pretty well banged up," Leyland said of the All-Star Authentic Brian Urlacher Jersey catcher, who caught 133 regular-season games while batting .295 with 19 homers and 82 RBIs. "His knee was swelling up pretty good a while ago. Trainers are doing the best they can to take care of that. "You talk about tough ... what you're seeing is what these guys are all about. It's hard for the average person to understand what these guys are going through. Everybody is banged up."Leyland then characteristically included the group of people sitting in his audience."You guys are probably all banged up," he said, canvassing the faces of reporters. "You've been traveling all over the place.  You're probably tired. I hope you're getting overtime. I'm serious. It's a strain on you."If you're traveling and following the team and getting back and trying to get a plane back, I respect the [heck] out of that."Such a segue was so typically Leyland. He is everyman in big league threads, that English "D" on his chest unable to affect his personality. Leyland is so humble, his autographed plaque is the lowest-priced at $50 in a team store display of Tigers memorabilia; even Joel Zumaya's plaque is Asante Samuel Jersey priced at $65, and he hasn't thrown a pitch since June 2010.And he has an uncanny capacity for looking at and evaluating matters from the perspective of fans in the stands or reporters behind their computers."I'm tired. I feel great, but I'm tired. I would be lying if I said I wasn't," said Leyland. "I go from decaf to regular about right now."

  Holliday in no Aaron Rodgers Authentic Jersey danger of being spelled by Craig
                 ST. LOUIS -- The Brewers won the National League Central with 96 wins, and the Cardinals Brian Urlacher Jersey claimed the Wild Card with 90 wins. Both are in the NL Championship Series. Based on Wednesday's big non-postseason news, the division is on the verge of getting even stronger. Theo Epstein, the architect of two World Series titles with the Red Sox, is reportedly about to sign a five-year deal to run the Cubs' baseball operations."All jobs have their challenges, and all divisions have their own challenges," Cardinals general manager John Mozeliak said prior to Wednesday's NLCS Game 3. "But when you look at the landscape of the Central, it's obviously changing. New ownership in Chicago. Potential new ownership in Houston. Both are major markets. If you compared it to say, maybe 10 years ago, the look would be different."Epstein is a proven winner and one of the highest profile executives in the game."When you look at that type of hire, they're obviously changing their strategy and how they're going about it," Mozeliak said. "Not knowing what they're going to do or how they're going to attack it doesn't necessarily mean instant success for 2012, but they surely are looking at this long term and for that leadership."Under Epstein's watch, the Red Sox ended an 86-year World Series drought when they won the title in 2004. The Cubs, of course, are looking to put to rest wholesale jerseys a "curse" that has lasted more than 100 years. "There is unique history in the sense of what [Epstein Authentic BenJarvus Green-Ellis Jersey had] in Boston," Mozeliak said. "It had been a while since they had success, especially to the level that he brought them to. Obviously, Chicago is trying to replicate that. But I don't want to speak for them."                                              Holliday in no danger of being spelled by Craig                ST. LOUIS -- Matt Holliday's power appears to be sapped a bit since his latest return from a right hand injury, but Cardinals manager Tony La Russa is convinced that his cleanup hitter is healthy and fully effective. So there's just about no chance of seeing Holliday take Authentic Asante Samuel Jersey a seat, unless his injury begins hampering him again.Holliday is 5-for-16 (.313) in the playoffs with a .368 on-base percentage, but has no extra-base hits. La Russa was asked Wednesday whether Allen Craig might get a start in place of Holliday, but the manager said there's very little chance."I think just the fact that you're asking that question is a heck of a compliment to what Allen did this year and what he showed last year," La Russa said. "If you're talking about Holliday, you're talking about one of the best hitters in either league, and if he's healthy, Craig has got a lot of learning to be at the same level."Same thing with Lance [Berkman].  He could play right field instead of Lance, but when those two guys are there, that's why you work so hard sometimes to get Craig playing time at other positions, because he can be very productive.  But both guys being healthy, I mean, it's not a tough call.  Allen is not Matt yet."                                              Musial, fellow Cards Hall of Famers honored                ST. LOUIS -- Threatening weather deprived Cardinals fans of a potential appearance by the Budweiser Clydesdales on Wednesday night. Given the consolation prize, it's fair to say that almost none of them were disappointed.The greatest Cardinal of them all, Stan Musial, made an appearance at Busch Stadium instead. Musial joined fellow Hall of Famers Lou Brock, Bob Gibson and Red Schoendienst on the field before the first pitch of Game 3 of the National League Championship Series.Jeff Suppan, a hero of the Cards' wins in the 2004 and '06 NLCSs, threw a ceremonial first pitch to Adam Wainwright, then the Hall of Famers were honored. Brock, Gibson and Schoendienst took the field at home plate. Then Musial was brought in on a golf cart from the right-field corner, a surprise to many in attendance, and of course was greeted with a massive ovation.Musial, who turns 91 in November, is the franchise's greatest player and the holder of nearly every major Cardinals batting record. He batted .331 with a .417 on-base percentage, Authentic Aaron Rodgers Jersey a .559 slugging percentage, 475 home runs and 1951 RBIs in 3,026 games, every one of them with the Cardinals.                                              Suppan honored to throw out first pitch                ST. LOUIS -- It was about 10 days ago that the Cardinals reached out to former postseason hero Jeff Suppan, saying they'd love to have him throw out the ceremonial first pitch if they made it to the National League Championship Series.Suppan obliged and didn't back down Brian Urlacher Authentic Jersey -- even though St. Louis' opponent represented a bit of an awkward situation.See, Cards and Brewers fans tend to have two very drastic viewpoints of Suppan.Cards fans, for the most part, love him -- he pitched three solid years in St. Louis, culminating in a 2006 season when Aaron Rodgers Jersey he was named the NLCS Most Valuable Player and helped win a World Series. Brewers fans? Not so much. Suppan signed a four-year, $42 million contract with Milwaukee in '07, then posted a 29-36 record and a 5.08 ERA before being released three months into the 2010 season.Regardless, Suppan -- appropriately wearing a red- and blue-striped long-sleeve shirt -- took the mound before the start of Game 3 of the NLCS at Busch Stadium on Wednesday night. He called the experience "weird, but it's not in a bad way."It was just one of those things where, when I ran out to the mound, I can say hello to both teams," Suppan said with a smile."For me, it was a great honor to come out and throw the first pitch," he added. "I was hoping to throw a strike, but I think it was up and away."Suppan, who said he still feels a "very strong connection" to St. Louis, went 138-143 with a 4.69 Asante Samuel Authentic Jersey ERA while pitching for six different organizations in 16 seasons in the big leagues. After being released by the Brewers, he re-signed with the Cardinals and posted a 3.84 ERA in 70 1/3 innings to close out last season.This year, he swallowed his pride and spent the entire 2011 campaign with the Royals' Triple-A squad in Omaha -- one he proudly points out won the Pacific Coast League championship -- going 11-8 with a 4.78 ERA in 28 games (27 starts).Somehow, the 36-year-old right-hander wants to keep pitching."I enjoy playing; I enjoy pitching," Suppan said. "I feel like I was healthy this year, and I was able to go out and make some starts and help the team. ... I'm just going to get ready for next year, and whatever happens, I'd like to go to Spring Training, hopefully have a chance to make a team. So, we'll see."                                              Brewers own NL's best mark at current Busch                ST. LOUIS -- The Brewers have scuffled, relatively, away from Miller Park this year. But don't try to convince Cardinals manager Tony La Russa that they'll be any kind of pushover for Games 3-5 of the National League Championship Series.Asked about such a home-road disparity, La Russa noted an interesting fact: No divisional foe has had more success at the current Busch Stadium the Brewers. In fact, no other NL Central team even has a winning Anquan Boldin Jersey Authentic record in the ballpark, while Milwaukee is 28-24.The next-best record within the division belongs to the Cubs, who are 24-27. Among NL teams, only Anquan Boldin Authentic Jersey the Brewers, Phillies (15-11) and Giants (10-9) have winning marks over the six seasons at the current park."Stats are weird," La Russa said. "They have a tremendous amount of confidence playing at home.  They struggle some on the road.  But the thing that brings us back into reality here is, since the ballpark opened in 2006, Milwaukee has probably had more success, or as much as maybe Philadelphia, playing here.  So they have confidence they can play in our ballpark.  "I even think that potential edge for us is not something we should count on.  Just going to have to play the game."                                              Brown claimed off waivers by Colorado                ST. LOUIS --  The Cardinals' decision to add Lance Lynn to the roster for the National League Championship Series has already paid dividends. However, it has also come at a cost.The Rockies claimed Andrew Brown off waivers on Wednesday, three days after the Cardinals designated him for assignment. In order to activate Lynn from the 60-day disabled list, St. Louis had to make room on the 40-man roster. The casualty was Brown, who now goes to the Colorado organization.Brown, 27, appeared in 11 games for the Cards in 2011, going 4-for-22 with a double, three RBIs, no walks BenJarvus Green-Ellis Jersey and eight strikeouts. He was an 18th-round Draft pick in '07. The first baseman/outfielder hit .284 with a .382 on-base percentage, a .501 slugging percentage, 20 home runs and 73 RBIs at Triple-A Memphis this year.                                              Batting practice bagged, clubs hit indoors                ST. LOUIS -- Though the decision no doubt came as a disappointment to some fans, batting practice was not held on the field at Busch Stadium prior to Wednesday's Game 3 of the National League Championship Series. With rain impending, the choice was made in the name of fairness, according to Cardinals general manager John Mozeliak.Instead, both the Cardinals and Brewers hit indoors. The hope was to avoid a situation where one team got to hit on the field and the other did not."We have our fingers crossed that we can get this game played on Authentic Anquan Boldin Jersey time, and we can play," Mozeliak said."The batting practice decision is based on if it started raining, it wouldn't be fair for one club over the other. Both have cages. So both can hit in cages."
