WASHINGTON -- Catcher Jose Lobaton and the Washington Nationals on Thursday agreed to a one-year contract for 2017, avoiding arbitration. Jerseys NFL Cheap .Lobaton hit .232 in 99 at-bats during the regular season as a backup to Wilson Ramos.But Ramos was injured in September, allowing Lobaton to get a chance at a more prominent role in the playoffs.

NCAA president Mark Emmert says member schools might reconsider allowing college athletes who compete in the Olympics to accept payments for performance. Wholesale Cheap NFL Jerseys .The NCAA rules allow athletes to accept money for training from the U.S. Olympic Committee or similar organizations in other countries along with national sports governing bodies. Athletes can also keep bonuses given for winning medals. A gold medal was worth $25,000 for U.S. athletes in Rio. A silver paid $15,000 and a bronze $10,000.For some countries, the payments are much greater. Swimmer Joseph Schooling, who attends the University of Texas and competes for Singapore, received more than $750,000 for winning gold in the 100 butterfly.On Thursday, Emmert said during an interview with Aspen Institute that Schoolings amount was far more than what NCAA membership had in mind.To be perfectly honest, its caused everybody to say, Oh, well thats not really what we were thinking about, Emmert said. So I dont know where the members will go on that. Thats a little different than 15 grand for the silver medal for swimming for the US of A. So I think its going to stimulate a very interesting conversation.The NCAA has been OK with the USOCs bonus program since 2001. In 2015, it allowed for athletes to accept similar bonuses from other countries.The question is whether that person is still an amateur, Emmert said about the large bonuses. Because if they competed in South Africa and paid $750,000 to play ball in South Africa, they would be declared a professional athlete and be not eligible for NCAA play. Thats the fundamental problem. Wholesale NFL Jerseys .com) - The game was all punts and field goals before Kodi Whitfields catch. NFL Jerseys China .

NEW YORK -- Todd Bowles isnt exactly in hurry-up mode when it comes to deciding on his starting quarterback.Ryan Fitzpatrick or Bryce Petty? Well, the New York Jets coach will make the call on wholl be under center against New England on Nov. 27 when the team returns from its bye-week break next Monday.We havent gotten there yet, Bowles said during a conference call Monday. Weve got a week to go for that. Were still evaluating everybody.Petty made his first NFL start Sunday in place of Fitzpatrick, who is recovering from a sprained knee. The second-year quarterback was 19 of 32 for 163 yards with a touchdown, but also tossed an interception with just under two minutes left in the Jets 9-6 loss to the Los Angeles Rams.That dropped New York to 3-7, with its playoff hopes now barely a flicker. Still, Bowles is sticking with his philosophy of playing the quarterback that gives the Jets the best chance to win. That means Bowles isnt necessarily looking to give Petty extended playing time just to see if he could be the quarterback of the future.At this point, not right now, Bowles said. I mean, he played OK (Sunday), but hes still got a lot of things to learn. You dont learn unless you play, but at the same time, were still trying to win games, too. So, well make that decision as the week goes forward.Bowles said the players will practice Tuesday and then have the rest of the week off. The coaching staff will have meetings Wednesday and then take off until next Monday. As for the quarterback decision, Bowles will talk to his staff and then give both general manager Mike Maccagnan and owner Woody Johnson a heads up on where the situation stands.And, the player he chooses might not necessarily hold the job from here on out.Going forward, it all depends on the play and the health and everything else of everybody, Bowles said. So, it could change, but it could stay the same, as well.Bowles is in a difficult situation, knowing the Jets are now simply playing out the season and Fitzpatrick is unlikely to be back next year. Geno Smith, out for the year with a knee injury, is scheduled to become a free agent. That leaves just Petty and rookie Christian Hackenberg as the quarterbacks who likely will remain on the roster next offseason. And the coach said Hackenberg, a second-rounder from Penn State, is not in the top two right now when it comes to the quarterback situation.But Bowles also has to tread lightly, realizing that looking toward the future at this point sends a message to his players that this season is already a wash.ddddddddddddWith the evaluation process, there comes a point in the future of an organization, toward the end of the season, where you try to see things if they go right here and there, Bowles said. But its always a tough decision one way or the other.Fitzpatrick sprained his left knee at Miami on Nov. 6 and was limited in practice all week while splitting first-team snaps with Petty. Bowles said it would be a game-time decision, but then decided Saturday night that Petty would start against the Rams.He was getting better, but he wasnt well enough on Saturday, in my mind, to even try to do it Sunday, Bowles said.Petty provided an early spark, complete with a standing ovation from the MetLife Stadium crowd as he took the field. He drove the Jets 99 yards on their second possession, finishing with his first NFL TD pass with a little razzle-dazzle on a toss to Brandon Marshall, who flipped it backward to Bilal Powell for a 4-yard score.But New Yorks offense was mostly quiet after that and the positive buzz was silenced by the time Petty was picked off by Alec Ogletree.The Jets also missed out on what appeared would be an easy touchdown just before halftime when Petty couldnt connect with a wide-open Robby Anderson. Bowles said Petty overthrew the ball slightly, but Anderson also slowed a bit on his route.He was calm and he was poised when he was out there, Bowles said of Petty. He threw the deep ball well. He understood his reads. He went where it was supposed to go. He hurried up some things and thats going to happen when a first-time starter comes out there. He hurried some throws and he missed a couple of reads as well.But, for the most part, other than the one turnover, he played OK.Game notes The Jets game against the Patriots was originally scheduled for Sunday Night Football, but was flexed out of the slot and moved to a 4:25 p.m. game and replaced by Kansas City at Denver. ... TE Kellen Davis (elbow) cleared waivers and was added to the Jets injured reserve list. ... Bowles said CB Nick Marshall has a high-ankle sprain.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Cheap MLB Jerseys cheap jerseys Cheap Jerseys Free Shipping cheap nfl jerseys Cheap Jerseys USA China Jerseys Cheap NFL Authentic Jerseys Cheap Jerseys For Sale Cheap NFL Jerseys China Wholesale Jerseys Cheap NBA Jerseys ' ' '

SAN JOSE, Calif. Jerseys NFL Wholesale . -- University of North Carolina coach Anson Dorrance has some experience when it comes to the NCAA Womens College Cup. The coach has so much experience, in fact, that he has won three times as many national championships in the San Jose-Santa Clara area alone as the other three semifinalists now settling in at Avaya Stadium have won in total.But even Dorrance hasnt been a part of the seasons final weekend since 2012, the longest absence in his decades in charge of the dynasty from Chapel Hill. Not to worry. If he wants a refresher on how this all works, he need only ask Tar Heels redshirt junior defender Maggie Bill.It was just six months ago, after all, that Bill celebrated an NCAA title. And it was just 18 months ago that she felt the sting of coming up one game -- one goal -- shy of that accomplishment.Both moments came through lacrosse, a sport in which Bill is one of the best players in the college game. Good enough to have played for the United States womens national team and nearly earned a roster spot on the team that will try to win a world championship next year. But if she is less well known in soccer, and if the position she plays was largely unknown to her until recently, these Tar Heels are competing for a 22nd NCAA soccer title because she is no dabbler.Shes one of the reasons weve had this kind of year, said Dorrance, whose team plays West Virginia in Fridays semifinals. If she werent with us, I cant imagine where we would be.That Bill cant imagine life without both sports is why she is in California this week. The divided loyalties with lacrosse, which plays a spring season, arent unprecedented for the Tar Heels, but Bill is the first since Elizabeth Lancaster pulled it off a decade ago.When it came to choosing a college, Bill recalled that a lot of lacrosse programs were hesitant to share the Long Island product with their soccer counterparts. A few flat-out told her they wouldnt let her. She was ready to commit to lacrosse-power Northwestern, which was at least open to the two-sport idea if not, by her estimation, entirely enthusiastic, when her high school lacrosse coach advised her to check out North Carolina. In lacrosse coach Jenny Levy, who sought Dorrances counsel when she started her program from scratch two decades ago, she found someone who was not just willing but enthusiastic to make it work. So while Bill attends North Carolina on a lacrosse scholarship, her falls belong to soccer.Whether Bo Jackson playing football and baseball at Auburn or Marion Jones competing in track and basketball at North Carolina, even great two-sport athletes are generally better in one sport than the other. In one, they dominate by physical ability. They are better than everyone else. In the other, they compete as if that should produce the same result. Sure enough, it often does.Bill said Dorrance is often surprised at how much confidence a part-time soccer player shows.I have a little bit more confidence in my abilities with lacrosse, just because I have more, I guess, results to go off of with that, Bill said. I think Ive definitely gotten more confident over the years. Ive realized how a lot of preparing for games is mental and most of that is just confidence. Thats something Ive worked on a lot, just making sure I believe in myself.That trust in herself is also part of the reason Bill wasnt on the field when the Tar Heels won the lacrosse title earlier this year. After earning All-American accolades the previous season and leading the lacrosse team in scoring when it lost the title game by a single goal to Maryland, she redshirted the subsequent soccer season, in the fall of 2015. Then she did the same in the most recent lacrosse season, in the spring of 2016. She wanted to focus on academics, but she also knew she needed a mental break.Ive been going and going since I was in maybe eighth grade, just constantly playing games, constantly practicing, said Bill, who was competing in basketball, lacrosse and soccer at a varsity level by the time she was in middle school. Ive never really had a break. Id have a month during December and a little bit of the summer, but I think I needed to take a step back and just kind of hit the reset button, I guess. I felt like I had a lot more to offer, both in soccer and lacrosse, and I think I needed to clear my head and focus more on my mental outlook and how I feel mentally in order to be able to perform the way I know I can athletically.I think I could have played both seasons out and kept going, but I feel like I wouldnt really be able to get closer to my potential.She continued to practice with both teams during their respective seasons. She was there outside Philadelphia when the lacrosse team won it all at the end of May. But stepping away from the actual games, from the mental energy required to prepare for and decompress from them, brought peace of mind.Just as they were willing to share her, Dorrance and Levy were willing to wait for her.With most of his lineup up for grabs after the departure of five seniors and the absences of three more likely starters because of the Under-20 World Cup or medical reasons, Dorrance was happy to have her back on the field this fall. And happy to continue to play her at center back despite a background that was almost exclusively as an attacking player until she got to Chapel Hill.We were trying to figure out a way to put a team on the field that could compete, Dorrance said. So we were looking at all the different pieces. We throw her in back there, and at first it was a bit rough -- it wasnt just rough for her, it was rough for the team.Slowly but surely, because she is an elite athlete but also incredibly coachable, she and the rest of the roster kept getting better.Bill plays between Julia Ashley and Hanna Gardner in the back of North Carolinas trademark 3-4-3 formation. That isnt an easy job even for someone who has the entire spring practice season to work at it. When the United States womens national team recently experimented with a back three, co-captain Becky Sauerbrunn described it as intimidating. And Sauerbrunn is as good as there is in the world. Defenders in a three-back formation have less protection and more responsibility. Get it wrong and, well, things like a 3-0 loss to USC happen. But in the past eight games, spanning the regular-season finale against Florida State, the ACC tournament and the first four rounds of the NCAA tournament, the Tar Heels have conceded just a single goal.Credit for that can be spread across the field, from Lindsey Harris in goal to the midfield work of players like co-captain Darcy McFarlane. But credit also the immovable object in the middle of the back line, a brilliant one-on-one defender nonetheless perfectly in sync with Ashley and Gardner.Not bad for a part-timer.In addition to her athleticism, she also has this incredible composure about her, McFarlane said. Which says a lot about her as an athlete. She can come from her lacrosse season and jump into soccer right away and doesnt skip a beat. Shes a really solid, composed presence in the back.She will be back on the lacrosse field this spring, although at Dorrances urging, professional soccer likely beckons when her time in Chapel Hill comes to an end. Should she finally pick a sport on which to focus fully, an idea that intrigues her, she may be North Carolinas best pro prospect.For now she is trying to heed the advice she would give the freshman version of herself.Dont worry about yesterday or tomorrow, Bill said. I think it would just be to really stay in the moment because, to me, its gone so fast and Ive had such a great time. But there are some moments where I wish I kind of was more present in that moment, instead of worrying about something else -- how I played before or being nervous about a game in the future.That moment affords her an opportunity this weekend to be a part of a second national championship in a matter of months, this time from the field. Jerseys NFL Cheap .

INDIANAPOLIS -- The Indiana Pacers are more than familiar with facing the Cleveland Cavaliers when LeBron James rests, so they didnt get distracted by the four-time NBA MVPs absence Wednesday night. Inter Milan Matias Vecino Jersey .The Pacers beat the LeBron-less Cavaliers 103-92 to improve to 3-1 at home in the past two years when James sits.I found out when Coach (Nate McMillan) came in and said, `LeBrons not playing, said Pacers point guard Jeff Teague, who had 20 points and eight assists. I didnt know, but we needed a win. We werent worried about who was playing or who was going to be on the floor, we were just going to go out and compete.Jeff Teague added 20 points and eight assists, and Thaddeus Young had 16 points to help the Pacers improve to 6-1 at home and 6-6 overall.James sat out for the first time this season. Averaging 23.4 points and 8.9 rebounds, he rested after playing Tuesday night in a home victory over Toronto. Guard J.R. Smith also missed the game because of a sprained right ankle.It doesnt matter about LeBron not playing, Cavaliers coach Tyronn Lue said. We just lost the game.Kevin Love led Cleveland with 27 points and 16 rebounds, and Kyrie Irving had 24 points and seven assists. The Cavaliers dropped to 9-2 after matching the best start in franchise history with the victory over Toronto on Tuesday night.We had our chances, Love said. We cut the lead to four or five a couple times, and it just felt like we either had a bad possession, had a turnover, and then that lead went to eight or nine points, having to fight kind of uphill to claw back and try to win the game, and it was too little too late.Indiana led 80-68 lead after three quarters. The Cavaliers cut it to four points midway through the fourth, but the Pacers put it away with a 9-2 run. C.J. Miles hit a 3-pointer for the games largest lead -- 97-84 with 5:10 remaining.Of course its different, Miles said about facing the Cavaliers without James. Were talking about him still and he didnt even play tonight. Hes arguably the best player in our game. (But) we cant disrespect anybody. Theyve got guys who can play basketball.TIP-INS:Cavaliers: Smith has missed the last three games. The last time James skipped a road game at Indiana, the Pacers prevailed 123-109 on April 6, 2016. The Cavaliers extended their NBA-record streak of games with at least 10 3-pointers to start a season to 11 games.Pacers: G Rodney Stuckey (right hamstring strain) was scratched for the 10th consecutive game. Thanks in large part to C Myles Turners 2.3 blocks per game, Indiana is No. 1 in the NBA with a 6.4 average.HICKORY NIGHT RETURNS:Fridays Indiana home game against Phoenix coincides with the 30th anniversary of the classic 1986 basketball movie Hoosiers and will be the first of six Hickory Nights, in which the Pacers will wear Hickory Huskers replica uniforms from the movie. Hoosiers screenwriter Angelo Pizzo, director David Anspaugh and some of the films actors, including Maris Valainis (who played Jimmy Chitwood) will be in attendance.SEE YA DOWN THE ROAD:The Eastern Conference rivals dont play each other again until Feb. 8 at Indiana, then Feb. 15 at Cleveland and April 2 at Cleveland.

Alex Ferguson previews the “Final Four”. Villanova Wildcats vs Oklahoma SoonersYoull see Oklahomas Buddy Hield, the best player in college basketball, and the Villanova team who have played beautiful, unselfish basketball throughout the year.Its not as though both sides are wildly underestimated - they were both given No 2 seeds, but Villanova had a history of disappointing, while no-one thought Oklahoma would be in the Final Four ahead of Kansas. Well….the critics were wrong. Hield has been the outstanding player of March Madness And Villanova have got there due to their excellent defence - they suffocated everyones favourites Kansas, beating them 64-59 in a classic. Oklahoma have advanced mainly because Hield has been hotter than fire lately, scoring 27, 36, 17 and 37 in his last four outings. And the 37? It was during Oklahomas big game against No 1-ranked Oregon in the Elite Eight, who they blew out 80-68.Hields excellent from three-point range, so Villanova had better be good at smothering him if they hope to continue.Also, look out for OUs Isaiah Cousins and Jordan Woodward, who can also kill opponents from three-point range. Josh Hart of the Villanova Wildcats shoots the ball On the other side of the court, you shouldnt laugh at Nova, though. They might not have a big-name scorer, but thats more design than bad luck. There are no egos on this team, Wildcats player Jalen Brunson told US TV outlet CSN Philadelphia. No-ones saying I want to get mine, no-ones like Ive got to get my stats.Everyones really out there playing for each other… Everyone that goes in or goes out has the same intensity on defense and in rebounding and thats really whaat matters most. Inter Milan Yann Karamoh Jersey. And everyone had better be on tip-top shape against Hield & co!PREDICTION: Villanova are a 4/6 favourite with SkyBet after their Kansas win, and Oklahoma are an 11/10 underdog. Hield remains hot….Oklahoma win an upset.North Carolina Tar Heels vs Syracuse Orange Marcus Paige of the North Carolina Tar Heels shoots A lot of critics said about Syracuses entry to the NCAA Championship: They shouldnt even be there. And while the Oranges in-season record was ordinary at best (19-13), and reflected in their lowly 10th seed in the tournament, the team has very much shown they belong here.They scored a mega-upset over No 1 Virginia - a team who handled them easily in the regular season - in the Elite Eight to cement their spot in Houston, and suddenly, everyones thinking: Can they unseat North Carolina, who are playing brilliantly?Well, history says no - North Carolina have won both games the two teams have played this year by nine and five points respectively - and are a big favourite with Sky Bet (1/6) to win the third. Syracuse Orange have made the final four No-ones even come close to beating the Tar Heels in their four games thus far, with the Heels racking up double digit victories in every game.What Tar Heels coach Roy Williams has done brilliantly is not make the team dependent on one scorer. If you can stop one of the teams most outstanding players in Brice Johnson, whos averaging 21 points per game, then youll have to stop Marcus Paige or Kennedy Meeks. Yeah, good luck.Its been pointed out that this game will also match up two greats of the game in head coaches Jim Boeheim and Williams, but they should also point out that if Syracuse can score an upset, itll be the biggest upset since David beat that big guy Goliath.PREDICTION: Tar Heels roll. FINAL PREDICTION: Oklahoma beat North Carolina in a classic.  Cheap MLB Jerseyscheap jerseys Cheap Jerseys Free Shipping cheap nfl jerseys Cheap Jerseys USA China Jerseys Cheap NFL Authentic Jerseys Cheap Jerseys For Sale Cheap NFL Jerseys China Wholesale Jerseys Cheap NBA Jerseys ' ' '

Desperate for a playmaking centre, the Phoenix Coyotes came to a deal with the top point-getter on the free agent market. China Jerseys Wholesale . Numbers Game examines the deal for playmaking centre Mike Ribeiro. The Coyotes Get: C Mike Ribeiro. Ribeiro, 33, is coming off a deceptively productive season. He was tied for 10th in the league with 49 points, but his 22 even-strength points was tied with several, including journeymen Brad Boyes and Lee Stempniak, for 74th. More importantly, in terms of puck possession at even strength, Ribeiros numbers have been in steady decline, so there is reason for concern, particularly considering his age. Once decline begins and a player is approaching his mid-30s, its difficult to reverse that trend. Phoenix was a better puck possession team than Washington last season, so maybe there is help for Ribeiro in that regard, but as the likely top scorer on the team, its not ideal if hes relying on others to drive puck possession. At the same time, in Phoenix, its important to note, Ribeiro offers an offensive element that has been lacking. As a setup man, Ribeiro could help Phoenixs offence, which ranked 21st in the league with 2.52 goals per game and a power play that ranked 25th at 14.8%. The issue isnt so much in the immediate term, as its fair to expect 60 points or so out of Ribeiro in the next couple years. After all, since 2003-2004, he ranks 19th with 572 points and has a history with Coyotes head coach Dave Tippett, who coached him previously in Dallas, but once Ribeiro is 35, 36 years old, its going to be more difficult to get that kind of production. Its Ribeiros age that makes the four-year, $22-million contract dicey but, for a Coyotes team that has been trying to get by with Antoine Vermette and Martin Hanzal in their big-minute centre roles, taking the risk on Ribiero is both a reflection of a better fiscal atmosphere after their latest deal with Glendale City Council and of the Coyotes willingness to take a chance on an older player because its been so difficult for them to find a playmaking centre that can also anchor their power play. Washington could miss Ribeiros power play production, but they have a viable second line without him. Provided Brooks Laich is healthy, he could fit between Troy Brouwer and Martin Erat and that unit could provide adequate secondary scoring. Ultimately, its not ideal for the Coyotes, but they werent in an ideal position. They had a need, paid handsomely to address it, and will live with what happens in years three or four. This franchise has been on a year-to-year status for so long now that being able to invest in a player long-term ought to be considered a sign of progress.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Sitting atop the AFC South at this time of year is unusual for the Tennessee Titans, at least in recent years.Now, the challenge is to finish on top of the division for the first time since 2008.They know what lies ahead, Titans coach Mike Mularkey said Monday. Its really a four-game season for our team. Again, Ive said it, you cant let what happens anywhere else affect us. Its just about what we do and what we do against Denver. That will be the message. It always has been.The Titans returned from their bye Monday tied with Houston (6-6) atop the division after the Texans lost their third straight. They host the Texans in the regular season finale Jan. 1. Before they start thinking about a postseason berth, the Titans have their work cut out for them: They host the defending Super Bowl champion Denver Broncos (8-4) on Sunday before a trip to Kansas City (9-3).Then they visit Jacksonville, the only divisional team Tennessee has beaten this season.Staying in the playoff chase means the Titans have to put together a winning streak after going into their bye with a 27-21 win over Chicago . Theyve won two straight only done once this season when they won at Miami on Oct. 9 and followed that up by beating the winless Browns on Oct. 16. This franchise hasnt won three straight since a 3-1 start in 2011.Were not satisfied with just being able to play meaningful games, defensive lineman Karl Klug said. We have to make them count. It doesnt do us any good if we play meaningful games and lose them.

The Titans went 2/3 after the calendar flipped to December both in finishing 6-10 in 2012 and 7-9 in 2013.Winning only five games combined each of the past two seasons put the Titans in position to draft Marcus Mariota at No. 2 overall in 2015, and they traded away the top overall draft pick for 2016 trying to rebuild.With the overhaul, no one on the current roster has ever played a postseason game in a Tennessee uniform. Cornerback Jason McCourty is the longest-tenured player with this franchise in his eighth season, and he was drafted in 2009 -- the year after the Titans won the AFC South with a league-best 13-3 record.McCourty, who used the bye to heal up a sore knee, said knowing the Titans are tied for first feels good. The jolt of energy only helps him focus on Denver.The only thing we can control right now is trying to get this win on Sunday and just furthering our chances, McCourty said. So we know we have the opportunity to do the things we want to do. We got to win each game at a time.Starting with Denver.Game notes Mularkey said the Titans would be placing rookie LB Kevin Dodd (right foot) on injured reserve . ...
