just five days after his first emergency relief appearance for Calvillo

Moffat: Young Als backups as old school as they come
They’ve been off-season workout partners for three years,Arizona Cardinals Jersey, one of them never imagining he’d join the other in Canada, much less as teammates with the Montreal Alouettes.They ride to work together every morning, the 5:52AM metro through Montreal’s underground to arrive at the office for 6:10, sometimes embarrassed to be wearing the same t-shirts from a QB school back in Texas that reads “Old School Quarterback Camp”.They arrive in the wee hours at Olympic Stadium knowing they still won’t beat the grand old school man of the passing game Anthony Calvillo into the film study room."Old School Quarterback"“When I think of ‘old school’ I think of a scrappy quarterback who just does what he has to do to win games”- Tanner Marsh, QBThey’re combined ages barely surpass AC's and they’re wise enough to know the difference between saying “old” and “old school.”Now Josh Neiswander and Tanner Marsh believe they’re as ready as they’ll ever be for #1 and #2 quarterback status in a live-fire regular season game at Molson Stadium.For the sake of the Als’ season...they’d better be.“Josh and I are always wearing matching t-shirts from Brad Frazier’s quarterback school in Texas where we train,” says Marsh.“Tanner’s always copying me wearing those t-shirts, but I like to flash the school colours too,” says the pride of Angelo State, an NCAA D-ll school in San Angelo,Wholesale NFL Jerseys, Texas.As Neiswander makes his first CFL start, just five days after his first emergency relief appearance for Calvillo, Marsh has been told he may get some reps too.“When I think of ‘old school’ I think of a scrappy quarterback who just does what he has to do to win games,” says the rookie Marsh, who bills himself as “Marsh Madness” on twitter (Neiswander doesn’t tweet.)“Josh has always been mechanically sound so I’ve always asked him questions and tried to make my mechanics good,” says the former Arkansas Tech QB. “He was helping me when I was back in college just like he’s helping me now.”“I watched Neiswander play for two years when I went to West Texas A&M and saw what he could do.”Neiswander got an invite from the Alouettes after scout Joey Abrams saw him at a college All-Star game following a record-setting career at ASU. Josh had injury trouble there, but after strong workouts had dabbles of interest from several NFL teams.The NFL lockout was free agent limbo for undrafted players and that would be the Alouettes’ gain. With uncertainty about an NFL season, Neiswander decided to pack a few changes of clothes for rookie camp and did some online homework about Calvillo and then head coach Marc Trestman.“I got to learn from the best, and now it’s nice to have my buddy (Tanner) here,” says Neiswander, as clean-cut a QB as the Als have had among the more than two dozen who have tried but failed to take AC’s job since he became the undisputed Montreal starter in 2000.When asked what he knew about the CFL in general and the Alouettes in particular Neiswander prefaces a response with “I didn’t know much and I don’t mean that to be disrespectful. I was just ignorant of the CFL game to be honest with you.”“As soon as I got here I understood quickly the coaches are amazing and the players are great, so I have the utmost respect for them.”The first CFL game he ever saw was the first one he ever played in. That was pre-season 2011. By then he’d already done some web-searches on Calvillo and was stoked to learn from Coach Trestman and Coach Milanovich (then the Als’ OC).“That was exciting for me to learn from AC and be around him...him being on the sidelines (in Regina Saturday) was huge for me, he’s been such a role model for me and knows so much more than I do.” Related Links Preview: BC at Montreal Calvillo ruled out for Week 9 against BC Buy: Als vs. Lions tickets Marsh’s journey from obscurity also defied the odds. He did four “pro days” hoping to be yet another small D-ll school QB to get a look somewhere...anywhere. His college coach offered him a chance to return to campus as grad assistant on the fast-track to Marsh’s own coaching career.Marsh tried out for a number of CFL teams in Dallas, TX, and impressed the Alouettes enough that they invited him to another tryout session in North Carolina.“I’ll remember the other teams that didn’t pick me up,” says Marsh, a lanky 6-foot-4, caught on this day with a small box of Smarties at his locker, but smart enough not to name team names for fear of fueling any media hype.GM Jim Popp chuckles at the hurdles Marsh has jumped. He won out over the competition at a mini-rookie camp and what Marsh describes as “another tryout competition after mini-camp.”Popp signed the kid who wouldn’t go away.“In pre-season against Toronto he had pressure coming from the blind side, somehow so it coming and spun around back to that side and still had the poise to make the throw,” Popp says reliving the play with enthusiasm.If Neiswander is a Calvillo-style thinker, admittedly still living at home with Mom and Dad in Winnsboro, Texas during off-season, Marsh is the outside the box and sometimes outside the pocket kind of guy.One will manage efficiently. The other can take bold decisions and be rewarded for it. They may even be wearing the same t-shirt under their jerseys.“Old School Quarterbacks.”

Take a look at the line at the bottom of the CFL's team stats

Irving: Bombers looking to gain control of offence
If you didn't know the final score, and took a glance at the box score of last week's Bombers vs. Lions matchup,Cheap NFL Jerseys, you couldn't possibly have envisioned a 53-17 final outcome.The Lions only had 289 yards of net offence to Winnipeg's 251, and the Bombers actually had an edge in passing yards, 228-202. So how did the Lions wind up winning by the lopsided score of 53-17?Take a look at the line at the bottom of the CFL's team stats, and you will get your answer. The Blue Bombers committed the staggering total of 7 turnovers, three of which were turned directly into BC touchdowns.First it was Adam Bighill on the opening offensive play of the game, which was then followed by a Cord Parks interception and a fumble recovery that he took for a touchdown.Then, veteran Dante Marsh got in on the party, returning an interception 80 yards for the touchdown.Three other Winnipeg turnovers deep in their own end resulted in the Lions adding another 13 points, making it a grand total of 34 BC points off turnovers. That's how a team rolls up a 53-17 final score. Related Links Bombers stymied in loss to BC More from Bob Irving Buy: Bombers vs. Stamps tickets Nothing can change the momentum and flow of a football game like turnovers, and of all the problems the Blue Bombers have encountered in this entirely forgettable season, the giveaways have been the most damaging.The Bombers lead the league in turnovers with 49 (Calgary, in contrast, has 20). Winnipeg has been intercepted the most times, 22, they have fumbled the most times, 19, and they have lost the ball on downs the most times 8.They are a stunning minus-26 on the takeaway-giveaway scale. The next worst team is Hamilton at minus-13. The one thing the Bombers have been consistent at this season is giving the ball away. In their last 10 games, they have committed at least 3 turnovers in each game. On the bright side, quarterback Max Hall has given the Blue Bomber offence a bit of a spark with his work in recent games.Hall has thrown four touchdown passes in his four starts, but he has also thrown seven interceptions. Seems like the turnover bug in Winnipeg is contagious. Hall will start at quarterback again on Saturday when the Bombers visit the Calgary Stampeders (plus-18 in the turnover category).It appears, on paper, to be one of the biggest mismatches in recent CFL history. And if the Bombers have any hope of staying close to the Stamps, they will have to find a cure for their charitable ways.As head coach Tim Burke so succinctly put it this week "Turnovers are killing us."Amen to that.

Retired Athletes Lose More Than the Game

Retired Athletes Lose More Than the Game

It can be difficult for professional athletes that are retiring from their sport to leave a successful sporting career behind and move on to a new life. The transition time can cause confusion and a lack of fulfillment.

The retiring athlete may set new goals and establish a new career but they may still miss an important key. This key can be the difference between a successful transition or a loss of purpose and drive. I'm talking about the loss of significance, an important human need as discussed here.

All humans have certain basic needs. According to Abraham Maslow (1943 paper A Theory of Human Motivation) there is a hierarchy of needs, in order of importance, as follows:

1. Physiological (breathing, food, water, sex, sleep, homeostasis, excretion)

2. Safety (security of body, of employment, of resources, of morality, of the family, of health, of property)4. SelfEsteem (selfesteem, confidence, achievement, respect of and by others

5. SelfActualisation (morality, creativity, spontaneity, problem solving, lack of prejudice, acceptance of facts)

By this hierarchy, as long as a lower level need is met, the human will seek to satisfy the next level and the next. Levels 2 to 5 are psychological needs and when they are not met can cause anxiety and distress.

Anthony Robbins teaches six human needs 4 basic needs being for Certainty, Uncertainty, Significance and Love/Connection plus 2 Spiritual needs being for Growth and for Contribution.

Both discussions on human needs indicate the need for significance, importance and selfesteem. Everybody has their own way of satisfying this need and it can be done positively or negatively. It can be done through achievement or perhaps through notoriety, for example a person may be a bully to feel significant.

Satisfaction of this need for recognition is what can be lost when an athlete retires. I remember talking to a gymnast many years ago that retired after Sydney 2000. She lamented the lack of reward and that she 'no longer feels important."

Along with the loss of significance, the athlete may also lose connection with their sporting family and there is often a loss of certainty what now? All of these factors can play a role in the confusion an athlete feels on the finish of their playing career.

This can explain why some athletes find themelves in trouble and on the wrong side of the law postsport. Some athletes find themselves in the media for the wrong reasons, getting into fights or desperate publicity stunts.

Recognizing that this loss of significance may occur on retirement can help the athlete to prepare for new ways to satisfy the need. It may not be at the same level, for example being in the media spotlight, but may be replaced by something even more fulfilling including making a difference to the lives of others.

Awareness is the important factor here and being prepared will include setting new goals to give a continued sense of achievement and build confidence.

Annette Huygens Tholen is a former international beach volleyball player and participated in the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games. She experienced the difficulties of transition from sport and is now a Master Results Coach and International speaker using her learnings and experience to empower athletes to reproduce emotional and financial success in their life after sport. Annette also teaches seminars for the world's biggest NLP Coaching and Training Organisation The Christopher Howard Companies.

Long distance road racing isn't on my todo list, so I wanted a motorcycle style crash hat. Found a neat looking black white "Nutcase" URS011L at REI, and after 10 or so outings am very happy with it. Much lighter than it looks, lots of vents, and once "customized" for my 73/8 head fits just right. 3 different thickness velcro pad "sets" included. Very cool magnetic slide chin snap stays secure, and yet is simple to release. The helmet gives me a degree of survival optimism, as more than half of my rides are in the crowded city.
