导出博客文章NFLOpening day in the NFL saw Kansas City cornerback Marcus Peters raise a
black-gloved fist during the national anthem, a protest amplified later when
four Miami Dolphins kneeled on the sideline with hands on their hearts as The
Star Spangled Banner played in Seattle.The protests were inspired by San
Francisco backup quarterback Colin Kaepernick , the first NFL player who chose
to sit and take a knee during the anthem in preseason games to call attention to
what he termed the oppression of blacks and other minorities.Peters gesture was
the only one visible throughout the early games as the anthems took on more
significance because of the 15th anniversary of Sept. 11 attacks.GLENDALE, Ariz.
-- Jimmy Garoppolo did just what Tom Brady always seems to do. Lead the New
England Patriots to a late score and victory.But the Patriots needed a little
help.Arizonas Chandler Catanzaro missed a 47-yard field goal with 41 seconds to
play and the severely depleted Patriots escaped with a 23-21 victory Sunday
night in the season opener.The miss came after Garoppolo, in his first NFL
start, directed the Patriots from their own 19 to the Arizona 15 to set up
Stephen Gostkowskis 23-yard field goal for what proved to be the winner with
3:44 to play.Garoppolo completed 24 of 33 passes for 264 yards with no
interceptions. He never seemed rattled.TENNISNEW YORK -- Stan Wawrinka is the
first to acknowledge he hasnt always been the most consistent player -- or the
strongest mentally. Thats why, when he shows his mettle during a match, he likes
to point his right index finger to his temple.That signature gesture got a lot
of use in the U.S. Open final, when Wawrinka surprisingly managed to wear down
Novak Djokovic and beat the defending champion 6-7 (1), 6-4, 7-5, 6-3 for his
first U.S. Open title and third Grand Slam trophy overall.The 31-year-old
Wawrinka is the oldest U.S. Open mens champion since Ken Rosewall was 35 in
1970.NEW YORK -- Angelique Kerber won her first U.S. Open title and the second
Grand Slam trophy of her breakthrough season, beating Karolina Pliskova 6-3,
4-6, 6-4 on Saturday.The No. 2-seeded Kerber trailed by a break at 3-1 in the
third set before taking five of the last six games against a fading Pliskova,
who was seeded 10th and hadnt been past the third round at a major until this
tournament.The left-handed Kerber already was assured of making her debut at No.
1 in the WTA rankings on Monday, ending Serena Williams record-tying 186-week
stay at the top.Never a Grand Slam finalist before 2016, the German beat
Williams for the Australian Open title in January, then lost to her in the
Wimbledon final in July.COLLEGE FOOTBALLOklahoma State dropped out of The
Associated college football poll after a controversial loss, and Georgia and
Clemson fell after close calls against lightly regarded opposition.Alabama is
still No. 1, receiving 56 out of 61 first-place votes. No. 2 Florida State, No.
3 Ohio State and No. 4 Michigan all moved up one spot. The Seminoles got four
first-place votes and Michigan received one.Clemson fell from second to fifth
after a four-point win against Troy. No. 16 Georgia dropped seven spots after
beating FCS Nicholls by two.BASEBALLTORONTO -- David Ortiz hit a three-run homer
in the sixth inning, Jackie Bradley Jr. and Hanley Ramirez also connected, and
the Boston Red Sox outslugged Toronto 11-8 to reclaim a two-game lead over the
Blue Jays in the AL East.Ortiz put Boston up 10-8 with a drive off Joaquin
Benoit. It was his 41st career home run at Rogers Centre, his highest total at
any road stadium.With his 535th career homer, Ortiz moved past Jimmie Foxx into
sole possession of 18th place on baseballs career list. He also increased his
RBI total to 110, the most by a player age 40 or above since Dave Winfield had
108 for Toronto in 1992.Edwin Encarnacion homered twice and Troy Tulowitzki hit
his third career grand slam for the Blue Jays, who are tied with Baltimore for
the wild-card lead.HOUSTON -- Jorge Soler and Addison Russell homered to lead
Chicago to a 9-5 win over the Houston Astros, moving the Cubs closer to
clinching the NL Central.Soler hit a solo home run as part of Chicagos four-run
third, and Russell hit a two-run shot -- his 20th of the season -- in the fourth
as the Cubs built a 9-0 lead.Chicago extended its lead in the NL Central to 16
games over St. Louis.GOLFCARMEL, Ind. -- Powerful off the tee and relentless
with the putter, Dustin Johnson didnt give anyone much of a chance by closing
with a 5-under 67 to win the BMW Championship by three shots and move to the top
of the FedEx Cup.Johnson won for the third time in his last eight tournaments
dating to his first major at the U.S. Open, and this might have been his most
complete performance.Paul Casey did just about everything he could, including
two early birdies for two-shot swings that erased a four-shot deficit in two
holes. Johnson answered with a pair of birdies and he was on his way. Casey made
a 25-foot eagle putt on the 15th hole to get within one shot, but that lasted
only as long as it took Johnson to make an 18-foot eagle putt on top of him to
keep the margin at three shots.Casey was runner-up in his second straight FedEx
Cup playoff event, losing to Rory McIlroy a week ago.AUTO RACINGRICHMOND, Va. --
It was yet another Denny Hamlin runaway for Joe Gibbs Racing on Saturday night
in what turned out to be an anticlimactic end to NASCARs regular season.The
fireworks came off the track at Richmond International Raceway, where Tony
Stewart intentionally wrecked Ryan Newman before Newman angrily chided his
former boss for the accident that officially ended Newmans chances to make the
playoffs.The verbal beat down from Newman came with 37 laps left, before Hamlin
finished off his third career Sprint Cup win at his home track while giving JGR
its third consecutive victory at the track and ninth in the last 15 races.Newman
called Stewart bipolar, said the retiring race car driver had anger issues, and
all but outright referenced the 2014 incident in which Stewart fatally struck a
sprint car driver.

Houston Texans have dealt with since Monday night has been a lingering feeling
throughout this disappointing season for the San Diego Chargers.On the cusp of a
surprising victory over the AFC West-leading Oakland Raiders, the Texans (6-4)
coughed up a seven-point lead with a fourth-quarter collapse and fell 27-20 in
Mexico City. Instead of establishing a two-game lead over the Indianapolis Colts
in the AFC South with a head-to-head victory in hand, the Texans dropped to 4-3
in the AFC and set the stage for a dogfight for the division title down the
stretch.Its a must that we focus strictly on San Diego, Texans head coach Bill
OBrien said. If you start looking ahead to whatever is the next game or the game
after that, you know, theyre all important. When you only have, whatever it is,
six games, five games left, every single one is important.The division obviously
is very, very important, but AFC games are important. Any game is important. I
think these guys came into the building today with great focus, energy and
theyre very focused on the Chargers.Defensively, the Texans remain an upper
echelon team, ranking 12th in scoring defense and fifth in total defense. But
the manner in which they surrendered the lead to Oakland continued a recent
trend that warrants attention and a reversal.After matching a Texans field goal
with a 75-yard touchdown pass from Derek Carr to Jamize Olawale, the Raiders
covered 85 yards in five plays in posting the winning score, a Carr to Amari
Cooper 35-yard pass. That touchdown followed a fourth-down stand by the Raiders
defense. When the Texans failed to match, it marked their fourth consecutive
game without a touchdown in the fourth quarter.Since their spirited
fourth-quarter rally to beat the Colts on Oct. 16, the Texans have been
outscored 41-9 in the fourth quarter of their last four games. Given the ongoing
struggles of the offense, its unjust to saddle the Texans defense with the blame
for their late-game struggles, but what is true is that Houston has wavered when
those tense moments arrive and a tenuous lead is on the line.We got beat. Thats
all I can saay, Texans defensive coordinator Romeo Crennel said.dddddddddddd You
saw the game. They made plays. We didnt make the plays, so we lost the game. The
only thing that we can do now is we cannot cry over spilled milk. What we have
to do is we have to move forward and try to play a better game versus the
Chargers.The Chargers (4-6) have managed the frustration of having a losing
record despite a positive point differential. All six of their losses have come
by one score, with a spate of injuries and their own issues protecting leads
undermining success.Three games behind the Broncos and Chiefs in the AFC West,
the Chargers arent in a position to dwell too long on what ails Houston.
Injuries have undercut the Texans, too, but theyve held the line defensively in
spite of the losses.I think thats what the good coaches do in this business,
Chargers coach Mike McCoy said of Houston surviving the loss of All-Pro
defensive end J.J. Watt. You take advantage of your personnel. Theres little
adjustments you make from week to week. The foundation has been laid a long time
ago in his system and then you go into the game planning process of doing
certain things. You educate your players and players go out and play. Its not
shocking at all the way they are playing without those players either.That
Houston has established quality depth in its secondary has helped offset the
injuries up front. Watt is irreplaceable, but the Texans have rotated capable
defensive backs liberally and to success, doing so with veteran cornerbacks
Johnathan Joseph and Kareem Jackson serving as anchors in the secondary.Yeah,
its a good group, Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers said. Obviously, those two
corners are veteran corners that have been together for a long time now, and
really just a solid secondary all the way around.Theres a lot of guys in the
game, a lot of DBs play, especially third-down situations, theres a lot of DBs
on the field and they make it tough on you. Theres not a lot of easy completions
out there.
