center; seeing anyone but No. 12 quarterbacking the Patriots might be

RIO DE JANEIRO -- With weightlifting once again hit by a doping scandal, China won two Olympic gold medals in the sport on Tuesday.Deng Wei and Shi Zhiyong won their events hours after one of the top female lifters, Lin Tzu-Chi of Taiwan, was forced to withdraw from the competition because of an abnormal doping test.Deng won the womens 63-kilogram category, setting a world record total of 262 kilograms. The previous record holder was Lin.Because this is my first Olympic Games, I was quite nervous, Deng said. But I set my goal to break the world record before coming to Rio, so this is actually within my expectations.Later in the day, Shi continued Chinas success by winning the mens 69kg class.In addition to Lins withdrawal, the International Olympic Committee disqualified two lifters from past Olympics for positive retests of samples from the 2008 and 2012 Games. One is from Turkey and the other from Armenia, but neither won a medal.That followed months of scandals in the sport which depleted the field for the womens 63kg. Defending champion Maiya Maneza of Kazakhstan missed the Olympics after failing a drug test, while two of the top four from last years world championships were also out for doping-related reasons.Deng took advantage, hoisting 147 kilograms in the clean and jerk and 115 in the snatch for her world-record total of 262. Dengs clean and jerk lift also broke her own world record by 1 kilo.Choe Hyo Sim of North Korea took silver and Karina Goricheva of Kazakhstan earned bronze.I am going to try harder to win gold next time, Choe said. I am not happy with the result. I could have tried much harder.Because of the doping situation in the sport, fourth-place finisher Mercedes Isabel Perez of Colombia said she might yet win a medal.We have to wait for the doping tests, Perez said, chuckling. Who knows? Being fourth is the best because if something happens, Ill just climb on that podium.Shi won the other gold for China by lifting 162 kilos in the snatch and 190 in the clean and jerk for a total of 352.Shi, who shares his name with another Olympic champion Chinese weightlifter, said the older Shi Zhiyong pushed him on to victory.You must deserve this name, respect this name, Shi said he was told. That encouraged me.Daniyar Ismayilov of Turkey, who used to represent Turkmenistan, won silver and said he had been inspired by mass protests which helped to prevent a military coup in his country last month.I felt they were fighting more than me, he said of the protesters. It really motivated me more.Izzat Artykov of Kyrgyzstan won bronze.Weightlifting has been dogged by steroid use for more than 50 years, but better testing techniques have meant bans for more star athletes.Two of the sports superpowers, Russia and Bulgaria, were kicked out of weightlifting at the Rio de Janeiro Games after repeated doping cases. The International Weightlifting Federation had threatened to ban Kazakhstan and Belarus, too, but failed because various doping cases were not processed in time for the Olympics.Results from the past are also in danger because of advances in testing.Besides Manezas gold, Kazakhstan stands to lose four more Olympic victories after failing retests of samples from Beijing and London, including two by Ilya Ilyin, one of the sports biggest stars.Nine Russians from the 2008 and 2012 Games have also failed retesting, all for oral turinabol, a relic of the East German state doping program of the Cold War era.---Associated Press writer Luis Henao contributed to this report.Halapoulivaati Vaitai Jersey .

Tom Coughlin is gone. Heck, the Rams no longer are in St. Louis.Upheaval is the buzzword for the NFL as training camps open. At least until big-name players get big-time injuries, or major holdouts end, or tackling and blocking for real begin, the departures of a likely Hall of Fame player and coach will be front and center.Not to mention the first shifting of an NFL franchise since the Oilers moved to Tennessee in 1997.Mannings retirement doesnt exactly leave a void at the top of the quarterback ranks with Aaron Rodgers, Tom Brady, Ben Roethlisberger, Cam Newton and, oh yeah, Peytons little brother Eli still around. It does, however, create a huge chasm to fill in Denver.With Von Millers messy contract situation settled -- it got ugly at times -- Denver still must deal with the defections of Malik Jackson and Danny Trevathan from the brilliant defense via free agency. So change hasnt exactly been positive for the champion Broncos.Nothings smooth about what we do, coach Gary Kubiak has said. Theres always things happening. But the most important thing is what we do out there on that field and how we get ready to play.So, I think weve done a good job of sorting through distractions and various things that are going on with our football team and staying focused on football.The Giants have a new look on the sideline as the often red-faced Coughlin resigned (before he was forced out) after a dozen seasons. Whether his gesticulations or his coaching acumen will be most missed is anyones guess, but Ben McAdoo steps in for his first top job in the pros.McAdoos first challenge is getting the team out of a four-year rut of not making the playoffs. General manager Jerry Reese and team owners spent big in free agency to provide McAdoo with the tools to turn around the Giants.We have talented players. It is just a matter of getting the most out of their ability, letting them make plays and letting everyone step up and do their job, quarterback Eli Manning said.ddddddddddddI think we made a big jump this offseason, linebacker Devon Kennard adds. It is a great group of guys that came in through the draft and free agency and jelling with the guys who have already been here.Well see.Other new head coaches are Adam Gase in Miami, Hue Jackson in Cleveland, Doug Pederson in Philadelphia, Dirk Koetter in Tampa, and Chip Kelly in San Francisco. Mike Mularkey has moved from interim to head coach in Tennessee.Los Angeles, meanwhile, returns to the NFL roster at the expense of St. Louis, where the Rams previously resided for two decades. Things wont look much different with the Rams, however -- they left the LA area (Anaheim, actually) in 1995 -- as they call the aging LA Coliseum home until their palace in nearby Inglewood is ready in 2019.While NFL owners clearly were eager to get back to Hollywood, it remains questionable how enamored of the NFL fans in SoCal will be.But Rams general manager Kevin Demoff doesnt seem concerned.This has really been a labor of love over the past five months to get this team up and running in every facet, Demoff told the Ventura County Star. Our group has been working tirelessly. I must say, the warm reception we have received from everybody in this community has been unbelievable.Unbelievably, Deflategate actually is over. Tom Bradys on-again, off-again suspension is on for the first four games of the regular season. That means Jimmy Garoppolo behind center; seeing anyone but No. 12 quarterbacking the Patriots might be the biggest upheaval of all.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFLCheap Jerseys China NFL Jerseys Cheap NBA Jerseys [url=http://wws
