What to watch for tonight in Game 7 of the World Series at Cleveland:---THE HISTORYThe Chicago Cubs have the longest championship drought in baseball, dating to 1908. The Indians own the second-longest gap, going back to 1948.Both teams are 0-2 in Game 7s. Chicago lost the 1945 World Series to Detroit and the 2003 NLCS to the Marlins; the Indians dropped the 1997 World Series to the Marlins and the 2007 ALCS to Boston.This is the third time in six years the World Series has gone the distance, most recently when the Giants beat the Royals in 2014. Home teams are 18-19 all-time in decisive Game 7s.THE MATCHUPIndians ace Corey Kluber vs. major league ERA leader Kyle Hendricks.Kluber could become the first pitcher to win three starts in a World Series since 1968, when Mickey Lolich did it for Detroit. The Cleveland righty also is the top hitter so far -- hes batting .500, albeit 1 for 2.Kluber has given up one run in 12 innings against the Cubs while fanning 15, and is 4-1 with a 0.89 ERA this postseason. The 2014 AL Cy Young Award winner starts on short rest for the second time in a row.Hendricks didnt get a decision in his Game 3 start, when he was pulled in the fifth inning without allowing a run. He was 16-8 with a 2.13 ERA this season.THE WEATHERThis could cause chaos. The forecast as of early Wednesday morning called for 70 degrees and fairly clear skies at Progressive Field for the first pitch at 8 p.m. EDT. But by 11 p.m., theres a good chance of rain, and its supposed to keep coming down until late morning. The first six games have taken an average of 3 hours, 34 minutes. Might make for a wet, wild finish.THE BULLPENCubs closer Aroldis Chapman has thrown 62 pitches in three days. Only three of his 20 fastballs Tuesday reached 100 mph on the radar gun, a down night for him. He also grimaced and came up limping a bit after covering first base. If his right knee or foot was hurting, he didnt sound concerned.Nothing bad, he said in Spanish. No issues at all.Cleveland relievers Andrew Miller and Cody Allen are well rested. After a travel day Monday, they didnt work Tuesday night in a 9-3 loss. Chances are, manager Terry Francona wont wait long to call in his daunting duo.THE MVPA lot of guys in play here. Corey Kluber would be an obvious choice if he dominates again, but what if hes pulled early in a no-decision and Cleveland wins? Andrew Miller has been nearly unhittable, Cody Allen hasnt given up a run, and flashy shortstop Francisco Lindor has starred with the bat and glove.Jake Arrieta has won twice for the Cubs and Aroldis Chapman has ruled in relief. Ben Zobrist leads all regulars with nine hits and a .391 batting average, Anthony Rizzo is hitting .364, Addison Russell has eight RBI and Kris Bryant has hit two timely home runs.COOPERSTOWN CALLINGSomeone is likely to stamp their ticket to the Hall of Fame with a win tonight. It could be Indians manager Terry Francona, who guided the Red Sox to two titles and helped them end their 86-year championship drought. Or it could be Cubs architect Theo Epstein, who built that Boston team in 2004.Swell Flasche Marmor . "We have always prided ourselves on the way we play defence. Having two big pieces back is going to be a key for us moving forward for years to come," said Knighthawks head coach Mike Hasen. Swell Flasche Rosa . "No difference at all," chirped U.S. roommate and linemate James van Riemsdyk. "Its still the same cranky Phil. http://www.swellflascheschweiz.ch/s-well-bottle-schweiz.html . For the Wild it was their first win of the season and they now have a record of 1-1-2 while the Jets fall to 2-2. Jets start a six game home stand Friday with another divisional game, home to the Dallas Stars.

Tracey comes to the Blue Bombers after spending over a decade with Queens University. Most recently he was the schools assistant football coach.BOSTON -- Sean The Cannon Gannons claim to fame was a bloody, bare-knuckle fight he had with another mixed martial arts fighter. His day job as a Boston police officer hasnt been quite as action-packed.For the past decade, Gannon has been restricted to desk duty because police officials say his cognitive abilities have been affected by concussions he received during his fighting career. The city says public safety could be jeopardized if Gannon is allowed to work as an armed street cop.Gannon, however, insists he can fully perform all the tasks of his job as a police officer and has been cleared for duty by numerous doctors. Next week, the Massachusetts top court will be asked to decide whether his lawsuit against the city can proceed to trial. Oral arguments are scheduled for Dec. 8.Gannon began his career as a Boston police officer in 1996. In his spare time, he practiced martial arts -- including judo, aikido and jiujitsu -- and in 2002 he began to compete as an amateur mixed martial arts fighter.Gannon gained notoriety on social media in 2004 when he beat well-known fighter Kevin Kimbo Slice Ferguson in an unsanctioned fight. A 10-minute video of the brawl was widely distributed online.Gannons lawyers say he received two concussions during his career, both in 2004, and stopped fighting in 2005.In 2006, Gannon was placed on desk duty after he didnt report to work one day and the police department learned that he had a concussive syndrome from his fighting, as well as a diagnosis of sleep apnea.Gannon sued the city in 2012.A Superior Court judge found that the city had articulated a legitimate nondiscriminatory reason for assigning Gannon to desk duty, specifically its concern that his loss of cognitive function and memory impairs his ability to perform essential tasks of his job, including responding in an emergency and using the needed judgment in high-pressure situatiions.ddddddddddddGannon is appealing the judges ruling dismissing his disability discrimination claims and is asking the Supreme Judicial Court to allow a jury to decide his case.The citys lawyers say neuropsychological tests showed Gannon, now 46, had slow responses and memory issues, and was prone to errors. They argue that he cannot perform the job of an armed police officer.It is beyond dispute that a police officer must be able to respond properly on a split second basis to real or perceived threats, attorney Nicole Taub argued in a legal brief.But Gannons lawyers say their own experts used real world police scenario testing and found that he could fully perform the duties of his job.Here, the City has never tested Gannon in any shoot/dont shoot scenarios or simulated exercises that would gauge his ability to think quickly, react under pressure, and adapt to changing conditions. By contrast, whenever Gannon has undergone such testing on his own initiative, he has performed well, his lawyers argued in their brief.Gannon declined to comment. Attorney Adelaide Pagano told The Associated Press that Gannon has shown he is more than capable of performing the essential functions of the job of a police officer safely. She called the departments decision to keep him on desk duty obstinate and disgraceful.In a recent interview with MixedMartialArts.com, Gannon said he believes the department has retained a battery of medical experts to try to show he cant do his job, but he has numerous experts who say he can.If one doctor says youll never run again, and another doctor says you will, and then you run in five touchdowns in the pre-season, and another three in real games, its safe to say the doctor that said you would never run again is wrong, he said.Cheap Jerseys China NFL Jerseys sholesale Basketball Jerseys[/url] Wholesale Baseball Jerseys ' ' '
