The Australian swimming team have some nagging headaches to address if they are to live up to their promise of challenging the all-conquering United States again in the pool.Team spirit is no longer a concern for the Dolphins, after their toxic London campaign, but the results? Not so much.Australia arrived in Rio de Janeiro hoping to reclaim the world No. 1 title for the first time since 2001, but they departed having been humbled by a Michael Phelps-led and Katie Ledecky-inspired U.S. team that nabbed half of the gold medals on offer -- a staggering 16.Australia won three gold medals, four silver and three bronze in an effort described by national coach Jacco Verhaeren as a mixed bag.Teenager Kyle Chalmers became Australias first 100m freestyle champion since 1968, but world record-holder Cate Campbell pulled off what she described as the greatest choke in Olympic history to finish a distant sixth in her 100m final.You cant pinpoint one reason or a generic reason why some people step up and others dont, Verhaeren said.Every performance has its own story, and this is what we need to find out.Fine-tuning Australias approach to the Olympics may be part of that story.The Dolphins held their Olympic trials in April, while the powerhouse U.S. held their selection meet in late June-early July.It will definitely be part of the review, looking at what is the best time for trials, Verhaeren said.But whether you qualify six weeks before or four months before or a year out, it comes down to race day.And it seems, the competitors mindset.Chalmers - just 18 - admitted he was oblivious to the pressure. He wasnt even sure who some of his famous competitors were.Australias other individual gold medallist, Mack Horton, even amped up the mind games ahead of his 400m freestyle triumph by calling Chinas defending champion and doping offender Sun Yang a drug cheat.By contrast, unassuming veteran Campbell choked while quietly spoken, red-hot favourite Cameron McEvoy -- a dual Olympian -- got stage fright as he finished second-last in the 100m freestyle final.Sometimes ignorance is a blessing, Verhaeren said.Chaussure Air Max Pas Cher Chine .B. - Sebastien Auger made 44 saves as the Saint John Sea Dogs edged the visiting Acadie-Bathurst Titan 2-1 on Saturday in Quebec Major Junior Hockey League action. Air Max Pas Cher Livraison Rapide . Now that hes hitting streaking teammates with pin-point passes for easy layups, Love is asserting himself as one of the true superstars in the league. http://www.pascherairmaxchine.fr/ . Jay Feely kicked a 41-yard field goal in overtime, and the Cardinals edged the Tennessee Titans 37-34 in overtime after blowing a 17-point lead late in the fourth quarter. Air Max Pas Cher Chine Livraison Gratuite .Y. - New Orleans forward Anthony Davis was chosen Friday to replace the injured Kobe Bryant in the NBA All-Star game that will be played in his home city. Vente Air Max Pas Cher . Gerald Green and Miles Plumlee? Green had bounced around the NBA when he wasnt playing overseas. The Pacers gave up on Plumlee after just one season. Now Green and Plumlee are key cogs in the Suns surprising breakout season.FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- The New York Jets are bracing for the possibility of not having cornerback Darrelle Revis on Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers.Revis, who strained his left hamstring last week against the Seattle Seahawks, missed his second straight day of practice on Thursday, raising doubts about his availability for the game.Coach Todd Bowles said it will be a game-time decision.Right now, hes hurt, Bowles said. Unless he gets better, itll go right up until game time. Hes been progressing and feeling better. Well see on Sunday morning.An MRI on Monday revealed a minor strain, according to Bowles. Revis, 31, has participated in light practice warm-ups, but he hasnt tested the hamstring by running full speed.The timing couldnt be worse for the struggling Jets (1-3), who have allowed seven pass plays of at least 40 yards. Now they have to face the high-scoring Steelers (3-1) and their dangerous passing combination, Ben Roethlisberger and Antonio Brown.Revis probably would be replaced by nickel back Marcus Williams in the starting lineup. Rookie Juston Burris, who has played only 23 defensive snaps in four games, would move up to the No. 3 corner spot.The Jets expect to be without wwide receiver Eric Decker (torn rotator cuff) for the second week in a row.dddddddddddd On Thursday, Decker didnt rule out the possibility of season-ending surgery, saying there isnt a definitive answer at this point.Surgery has been discussed, he said, saying that conversation will be revisited down the road.Well look at it again and theyll let me know what the right thing to do is, Decker said.The Jets are hoping rest and rehab will give Decker enough strength and range of motion to get back on the field, but theyve remained noncommittal on whether that will happen.We havent seen any progress with him, Bowles said, meaning Decker still isnt able to practice.The coach didnt rule out injured reserve.We have to see how his progress is doing, Bowles said. Its about him getting better first, seeing what he can and cant do before you make that decision. If hes worse every day, then thats an easy decision. But thats not the case right now.Well play it week by week, he added. When we have something in mind, well talk about it and well deal with it when that time comes. ' ' '
