Kritik und Lob » cted star receiver Mike Williams to play again

TOKYO -- IOC President Thomas Bach met with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe on Wednesday and suggested staging some events for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics in the northeastern region of Japan hit by the 2011 earthquake, tsunami and nuclear disaster.Bach said the International Olympic Committee is considering holding some of the baseball and softball games in the affected areas as one of the options.Fukushima is reportedly a strong candidate. Baseball and softball were dropped from the Olympics after Beijing 2008 but are among five sports added to the program for the 2020 Games. Both are very popular in Japan and an event in the disaster-affected areas could send a powerful message of reconstruction.Bach said Abe welcomed his proposal.We discussed ... the idea of the IOC to have some events of the Olympic games of Tokyo 2020 in the disaster-affected areas, to contribute to the regeneration of the area, to show the world by 2020 how this regeneration is making progress, Bach said.Baseball and softball are one of the options under discussion given the great popularity of the sport here in Japan, he told reporters. So an inaugural match for baseball with the participation of the Japanese team, I think, could be a very powerful message.The primary venue for baseball and softball is expected to be the Yokohama Stadium.Bach is in Japan amid tension between Olympic organizers and Tokyo Governor Yuriko Koike, who is pushing to cut costs. A Tokyo government panel set up by Koike said the cost of the Olympics could exceed $30 billion -- four times the initial estimate -- unless drastic cuts are made.The city panel also proposed moving three sports from planned new venues to existing ones -- including relocating rowing to a site hundreds of miles outside the capital.The IOC has suggested the possibility of moving rowing to an existing site in South Korea in case there is no resolution over the Japanese venue, the Asahi newspaper reported, quoting unidentified Japanese sources as saying. The South Korean venue in Chungiu City hosted the 2013 world championships and rowing at the 2014 Asian Games.Speaking at Tokyo 2020 headquarters, Bach did not address reports of the rowing and canoe sprint events possibly being moved to South Korea.Earlier, Bach rejected calls to expand four-party talks aimed at reducing the costs of the Tokyo Games.Bach said negotiations between the IOC, Tokyo organizers, the city government and Japans central government should result in cost reductions.Koike had suggested including international and national sports federations in the four-party talks but Bach said the makeup of the group has been agreed on.We have an agreement about this four-partite working group, Bach said. And this was very well perceived by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government and by the governor, and we will follow this agreement we had yesterday.Hydro Flask Coffee Sverige .

Hydro Flask 24 Oz Sverige .Y. -- Bills receiver Stevie Johnson has a bone to pick with the NFL schedule maker. Hydro Flask Vattenflaska . The Swede became the first golfer to win the PGA Tours FedEx Cup and European Tours Race to Dubai in the same season. "It is still taking a little time to sink in what Ive achieved this week as was the case when I won the FedEx Cup but then it just kept getting better and better as the days went on and I am sure this will be the same," he said.CLEMSON, S.C. -- Ben Boulware said he is tired of his intensity being mislabled as dirty.The Clemson linebacker promises not to ease up when the third-ranked Tigers (6-0, 3-0 Atlantic Coast Conference) take on North Carolina State (4-1, 1-0) on Saturday.Boulware came under scrutiny two weeks ago when he was caught on camera putting a headlock on Louisville quarterback Lamar Jackson at the end of a play. Last week, Boulware was called for a targeting penalty -- which was overturned on review -- on a shoulder-high hit on Boston College quarterback Patrick Bowles.Boulware worried his image has been skewed from tough-minded defender to cheap-shot artist.People are saying that Im like the most hated player in college football and Im dirty, Boulware said this week. People saying that are just jumping to conclusions.Boulware is a leader on a young defense ranked ninth in the country despite losing seven starters from last years ACC champions and national title runners up. The senior was taught to play the game fullout and wont dial it down for anyone.He said he was simply holding onto Jackson to prevent him from making a play.Were not playing golf or tennis, Boulware said. This is an aggressive sport. You can see that Im annoyed by it because its been blowing up the past two weeks.Clemson coach Dabo Swinney said theres nothing dirty about Boulware, except maybe that beard hes got.North Carolina State has relied on its strong defense this season to be the only other ACC Atlantic team without a league loss. The Wolfpack are eighth nationally and held Notre Dame to three points in soggy, 10-3 victory playing under Hurricane Matthews soaking rains.NC State coach Dave Doeren said the defense has steadily improved over his four seasons in charge and he believes his team is better equipped to challenge Clemson quarterback Deshaun Watson and the teams high-poweredd attack.dddddddddddd.You have to look at improvements weve had since Ive gotten here, he said. Every year weve gotten better on defense.---Some other things to look at when North Carolina State takes on No. 3 Clemson:HOME SUCCESS: Clemson has won a school record 19 straight games at home dating back to a 2013 loss to Florida State. The Tigers mark for not losing at home, though, is 25 where they went 23-0-2 during a stretch from 1980 to 1984.STOPPING THE RUN: The Wolfpacks rise in defense has come in part because of their success against the run. So far, North Carolina State is giving up just 91 yards a game on the ground. That will be tested this week as Clemson tailback Wayne Gallman ran for 109 yards on nine carries last week in a win over Boston College.HEALTHY RECIEVERS: Clemson coach Dabo Swinney expected star receiver Mike Williams to play against the Wolfpack after suffering a hamstring injury against Boston College. Swinney said Williams has looked good this week. The coach also said that injured Hunter Renfrow could return to face North Carolina State after missing the past four games with a broken bone in his hand.BOWL GAME: Since, 1981, the game between Clemson and North Carolina State has been called the Textile Bowl because of the industrys importance to both states and since the two schools have well-regarded textile programs.HUNDRED YARD GAMES: Clemson runner Wayne Gallman tied the school mark of Raymond Priester with his 15th game with 100 yards rushing in the win over Boston College. Gallman can set the record this week if he can break the century mark against Boston College. Gallman surpassed Priesters single-season rushing mark last year.---OnlineAP College Football website: www.collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '
