home in Marietta at 2 a.m. Swanson got a couple ho Antworten

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. -- The Minnesota Vikings kept Blair Walsh on their roster after his third missed extra point of the season last week. It remains to be seen whether theyll keep him after his fourth.Coach Mike Zimmer said Monday that the Vikings will again consider their options at kicker after Walsh missed another extra point in Sundays 26-20 loss to the Washington Redskins. The team worked out six kickers Tuesday after Walsh missed an extra point and had a field goal blocked in an overtime loss to the Detroit Lions, but the Vikings decided to stick with the fifth-year kicker, whod signed a four-year contract extension with the Vikings in 2015.The latest miss from Walsh, though, will apparently cause the Vikings to revisit the kicker situation.Were going to see what all the options are, Zimmer said. Were going to see what the options are at tackle [after Jake Long injured his left Achilles tendon Sunday]. Well see what the options are at kicker, and then make a determination and go.The Vikings worked out Kai Forbath, Randy Bullock, Zach Hocker, Travis Coons, Aldrick Rosas and Marshall Koehn last week, but didnt sign any of them. Special-teams coordinator Mike Priefer said last week that he believed the tryouts would light a fire under Walsh.He got ticked off in a good way, I think, because hes a competitive young man, Priefer said Thursday. When you bring in guys that are potentially going to take your job, guys that want your job, thats the way you want him to react. If he didnt react that way, I would be really worried, and we probably would be looking for another guy. He got -- I dont want to say angry, but he got a little fired up in a very respectful way, just like he always is. I expect him to go out and kick well for us this weekend and the rest of the year.Walsh was in the Vikings practice facility Monday afternoon, working out by himself, but was not in the teams locker room during media access.

"We talked about wanting to be disciplined and stick with our game plan and good things will come," Draisaitl said, who had two goals for the victors. http://www.authenticnyjetspro.com/Quinnen-williams-jets-jersey/ .J. -- Marty Brodeur beat the Pittsburgh Penguins yet again. Curtis Martin Jersey . -- Stanfords Kevin Danser knelt on one knee and hardly moved on the sideline as Michigan State celebrated its Rose Bowl victory and his Cardinal teammates made their way to the locker room. Jamal Adams Jersey . -- Aaron Murray threw for 408 yards and three touchdowns, ran for another score, and led No. ATLANTA -- Shortstop Dansby Swanson, born and raised in the north Atlanta suburbs, is making no promises to help turn around his hometown Braves.Swanson, the Braves top prospect and the No. 1 overall draft pick of 2015, had his contract selected from Double-A Mississippi on Wednesday and was immediately put in the lineup batting eighth.The sparse crowd at Turner Field, not unusual this season for the major leagues worst team, gave Swanson some loud cheers before and during the game. He walked up to his first at-bat with Ludacris Georgia playing over the speakers and received a standing ovation before lining out in the second inning.A lot of emotion, but its a good time, Swanson said before Wednesdays game against the Minnesota Twins. Im enjoying it and looking forward to everything Atlanta has to offer the next seven weeks.Swanson was running on adrenaline and excitement before the game.After a six-hour drive from Jackson, Mississippi, on Tuesday night, he arrived at his parents home in Marietta at 2 a.m. Swanson got a couple hours of sleep, took a surreal drive to Turner Field and was the first player to arrive in the clubhouse around 11 a.m., spending 30 minutes talking with Brian Snitker in the interim managers office.Hes a very well-grounded kid, very intelligent, Snitker said. He gets it. The intangibles are just dripping off this young man, not to mention his athletic abilities as a baseball player.Atlanta created a spot on the 25-man roster for Swanson after trading shortstop Erick Aybar to Detroit on Tuesday night and designating Mike Aviles, the utility man acquired in the deal, for assignment.Swanson was eager to get on the field and prove that he belongs in the big leagues. He was thhe first No.dddddddddddd 1 overall pick to debut in the season following his draft year since Washington pitcher Stephen Strasburg in 2009.Expectations have been predictably high since last December, when the Braves traded pitcher Shelby Miller and minor leaguer Gabe Speier to Arizona for Swanson, center fielder Ender Inciarte and pitcher Aaron Blair.Swanson was projected to fill a big spot at his position after Atlanta traded away Gold Glove shortstop Andrelton Simmons the month before.Pressure is kind of something that comes about when I guess you dont believe in yourself as much, that you dont believe in something you can do or accomplish, Swanson said. I just worry about what I can control and theres no pressure on myself when I do that.Swanson spent just 127 games in the minors. The former Vanderbilt standout had a combined .275 average and nine homers and 55 RBI in 105 games between Mississippi and Class A Carolina.This is a very smart kid and a good player, Hart said. However he performs up here, I think its going to be beneficial for him and for us as we go to make a decision to what were going to do with the shortstop position next year.Swanson said he was too young to remember his first game at Turner Field, but by the time he was old enough to pay attention, Braves star third baseman Chipper Jones made a lasting impression.Every time I came to a game, Chipper always hit a home run, like five different times, Swanson said. It was pretty spectacular.His family home will be even closer for Swanson next year as the Braves move into a new ballpark in Marietta. ' ' '
