7) Will Peyton Manning retire? (He has come back from injuries and defeats before, and he has adjusted to new teammates and new coaches, but you wonder if Manning can ignore the thought that his best chance to win a second Super Bowl has disappeared. You also wonder if he can ignore the $38 million left on his contract.)8) How are Denver fans reacting to the departure of Broncos head coach John Fox? (As the cliche goes, Fox and the teams general manager werent on the same page. In Denver, fans will be on the GMs page as long as the GM is John Elway.)9) If the Super Bowl matchup is New England vs. Seattle, the meeting of two great coach-quarterback combinations would be fascinating, and Belichick-Brady would rate an edge over Carroll-Wilson. Does that mean the Patriots would be favoured? (Not unless defence doesnt matter, and it does. The Seahawks edge without the football would be greater than the Patriots advantage when Brady has it.)10) Is Rex Ryan a good fit in Buffalo? (I think Ryan is capable of being a bad fit almost anywhere. Tumultuous times follow him, or are caused by him, and the Bills organization is so new and unsettled under owners Terry and Kim Pegula that its hard to say how Ryan will fit. But Bills fans are sure to like a volatile coach who can inspire an aggressive defence. They might really like him if the Bills can find him a quarterback.)11) What is the difference between the Toronto Maple Leafs under Peter Horachek and the Toronto Maple Leafs under Randy Carlyle? (My simplest of answers is this: Fresh air has been added and stale air has been removed and the Leafs are now working harder. However, the change is hardly dramatic until there are more wins than losses under Horachek.)12) Isnt it true that mid-season coaching changes usually dont make much of a difference, if any? (But then there are the exceptions, and when Darryl Sutter replaced Terry Murray as LA Kings coach on December 20, 2011 and wound up lifting the Stanley Cup on June 11, 2012, there was another reminder that dramatic change can occur.)13) Randy Carlyle became the fourth NHL coach fired in the first half of this season. Is that a record? (Not even close. The record was set in 2011-12, when seven coaches were let go by early January. Carlyle was a victim then, as well - released by the Anaheim Ducks.)14) Is it important to discuss the players who are going to the NHL All-Star game, or those who arent going? (No, and no.)15) Is there any other twist to the all-star idea of a game between two teams drafted by the players themselves? (Now that the NFL is doing the same with its Pro Bowl, maybe the football players could draft the hockey teams, and vice versa.)16) Is there an easy way to explain Bill Belichicks "substitution trickery" employed by New England against Baltimore? (Theres a way, but Im not sure how easy it is. Youll have to decide. On three plays in the third quarter, all of which produced pass completions, New England employed only four actual offensive linemen and had one of six other players report as another "ineligible receiver". The Ravens were so informed, but had to quickly forget about that back or receiver and scramble to cover each of the five guys who could catch a Tom Brady pass. I guess that wasnt easy... for them.)17) Who is the mid-season favourite to win the Calder Trophy as the NHLs top rookie? (The longer the season goes, and the more the Florida Panthers win, the less are the chances of anyone other than Aaron Ekblad. Filip Forsberg and Johnny Gaudreau would have to score a lot just to make it close.)18) Should the Hart Trophy go to the NHLs most valuable player, or to the NHLs best player? (Heres another try to drum up support for the latter, and maybe thats easier in the middle of a season that sees little or no MVP consensus. Not that there would be a slam-dunk winner the other way, but scoring leader (and not just because he happens to be that) Jake Voracek of the Philadelphia Flyers is the best player Ive seen.19) Can Ohio States Cardale Jones make it as a quarterback in the NFL? (Hell probably try, because the alternative might be to go from the guy who beat Heisman Trophy winner Marcus Mariota in the College Football Playoff National Championship game to the Buckeyes third-stringer he was before Braxton Miller and then J.T. Barrett got hurt.)20) And finally, would you mind if I presented the song that is in my head ever since I watched Boyhood? (It was there before, but it would leave. Now, it wont.) Trevor Siemian Jersey . Spencer Abbott and Trevor Smith scored third-period goals erasing a 2-1 deficit giving Toronto a late 3-2 lead.

Randy Moss Jersey .L. - Defending womens champion Alberta improved to 3-0 at the Canadian junior curling championships with a 10-3 win over Ontario in Sundays afternoon draw. CINCINNATI, Ohio -- The Toronto Blue Jays went limping home from their long, losing road trip. The struggling AL East leaders lost infielder Brett Lawrie and right fielder Jose Bautista with injuries and fell to the Cincinnati Reds 4-3 Sunday. Toronto was 3-7 on its visit to Baltimore, Yankee Stadium and Cincinnati. Lawrie, twice hit in the left hand by pitches earlier in the week, sustained a broken right index finger when he was hit by a pitch from Johnny Cueto in the second inning. The team didnt immediately announce how long he would be out. "Its definitely tough," said Lawrie, who said he expects to be placed on the disabled list. "Were big pieces of the puzzle, especially (Bautista). Its tough on the team to not have all its bullets. We just have to keep on grinding." Bautista left because of tightness in his left hamstring, manager John Gibbon said. The All-Star outfielder had a single and a sacrifice bunt before leaving. Cueto pitched eight effective innings and Todd Frazier broke a 2-all tie in the fifth with a two-run homer off R.A. Dickey (6-6). Toronto has lost five of six, and has dropped five straight series. Cueto (7-5) gave up three runs -- one earned -- and leads the NL with a 1.86 ERA. He gave up seven hits and struck out eight while winning his third straight start. Gibbon became just the latest opposing manager to be dazzled by Cueto, though he also was impressed by his own starter, who got two extra days of rest after his last start because of a sore groin. ""I thought (Dickey) was pretty good, except for the home-run ball," Gibbon said. "Thats been his nemesis. It was a hot day, but he stayed out there. Cueto was just a little bit better. Hes good. Hes in a different class." Aroldis Chapman struck out the side in the ninth for his 13th save. Cueto led off the fifth with a bunt single. One out later, Frazier lined his team-leading 17th homer of the season, and the sixth allowed by Dickey in his last four starts. "I felt good," Dickey said. "I gave up nine hits, but I think only two or three of them could be described as hard--hit.dddddddddddd I think all but one of my earned runs over my last four or five starts have come on home runs. Thats tough to overcome, especially against a guy like Cueto. I knew it was going to be a scrappy game from the beginning." The Reds had their own injury concerns. Second baseman Brandon Phillips left the game in the middle of the fifth with a bruised right heel, and Cueto had to shake off a hamstring cramp to stay in the game. "When Frazier hit that ball, I went back to tag and I felt it," Cueto said through a translator. "It was just a cramp." Frazier is tied with Pittsburghs Andrew McCutchen and Baltimores Adam Jones for the most home runs in the month of June, each with seven. Edwin Encarnacion led off the Toronto eighth with his 24th home run, connecting against his former team. He hit a pair of three-run shots Friday night while Toronto was coming back from an 8-0 deficit to grab a 14-9 win. The Reds used Encarnacions error at first to take a 1-0 lead in the first. With Frazier on first and two outs, Phillips was safe when Encarnacion couldnt handle third baseman Juan Franciscos throw on a chopper. Jay Bruce converted the error with an RBI single. The Blue Jays got help from two errors to take a 2-1 lead in the third. Munenori Kawasaki reached on first baseman Joey Vottos throwing error, Melky Cabrera singled and Toronto loaded the bases on Cuetos misplay of Jose Bautistas bunt. One out later, Colby Rasmus lined a two-run single. The Reds tied the game in the fourth on Bruces leadoff double, Ryan Ludwicks single and Brayan Penas run-scoring double-play grounder. Encarnacion homered off Cueto into the left-field seats. NOTES: Bautista was scheduled for an MRI on Monday. He left for pinch-runner Jose Reyes, who didnt start after fouling a ball off the side of his left knee on Saturday. ... Toronto is scheduled to open a seven-game homestand with the first of three against the Yankees on Monday. ... The Reds are due to open their second 10-game road trip of the season with the first of three games against the Cubs. ' ' '
