EUGENE, Ore. -- Whew. That was a little close.Buffalo Bills receiver Marquise Goodwin advanced to Sundays finals in the long jump, placing 12th in Saturdays preliminary round at the U.S. Olympic track and field trials in an event where only 12 athletes move on. Goodwin said he was sloppy and feeling a little rusty while messing up his first two jumps of the day, but isnt at all worried about finishing in the top three in the finals to qualify for Rio.Man, four years ago, I got 10th overall in the prelims, and won the finals, Goodwin said. It doesnt matter what you do the day before the finals. Honestly, just come back, refocus and its a new day.Jeffrey Henderson was first in Saturdays prelims with a leap of 8.22 meters while 2012 Olympic bronze medalist Will Claye was second at 8.14. Goodwins best jump was 7.82.Goodwin competed for the United States at the 2012 Olympics, finishing 10th with a leap of 7.80. He was drafted by the Bills the following spring. After playing two seasons for Buffalo, he returned to track last year while also continuing to play football. He played just two games for the Bills last season, but has excelled in the long jump this year, leaping a personal-best 8.45 meters at one meet. That surpasses gold medalist Greg Rutherfords 8.31 jump at the 2012 Olympics.He says playing football has helped him in the long jump.Its toughness, Goodwin said. Strain a hamstring going in, you just have to push through it. You cant make excuses. You cant go out there and say, I have a hurt hammy or I got a broken hand. When youre on the field, you just have to go out there and compete. You give it your all. If you win, you win; if you lose, you lose -- you take your Ls like you take your Ws.At the end of the day, you have to remember -- this is fun. You cant take the fun out of it.If Goodwin qualifies for the Olympics, he says winning a medal in Rio would complete a dream he has had since he was 9 years old.It would be No. 1, being that Ive never won an Olympic medal, he said. Ive accomplished a lot, but an Olympic medal is something Ive always dreamed of. The Super Bowl, as well. If I could get two of those, I could probably die right after. God forbid that happened, but I could. Bob Cousy Jersey .

Al Horford Jersey .com) - Richie Incognito has reportedly been admitted to a psychiatric care unit in Arizona.KINGSTON, Ont. -- Canada remained unbeaten in its Pacific Nations Cup rugby debut after holding off a 14-man Tonga 36-27 in rainy Kingston on Saturday. Four days after a first-ever win over Fiji, a Canada team with 10 changes was helped when Tonga prop Eddie Aholelei was sent off for fighting in the 34th minute. Two more Tongans were sin-binned for shoulder charges. Tonga coach Mana Otai said Pacific Island teams were being unfairly penalized for their physical play. "I couldnt really see why (the yellow cards were issued)," Otai said after reviewing tape of the incidents. "Its almost like, these days you know, when a black man is tackling harder than the other, it seems to be the way." Asked if Pacific Island teams were being singled out, he said: "Absolutely. Its a perception a lot of times. "And I think some of the foreigners that are involved in our team now are starting to see that. Its just hard to battle or fight that stereotype, I guess. But Im not taking away the fact that at times we do, I guess, make mistakes in terms of tackling -- if Im talking in general. But in todays game, I couldnt justify the two yyellow cards.ddddddddddddquot; Canada coach Kieran Crowley declined to debate the merits of the Tongan incidents. "It was a physical game," the former All Black said. "Weve got a few boys walking around pretty wounded in there and weve got to keep an eye on a couple of them, I think." Canada finished the half only 9-7 ahead, but scored three of the next four tries to be 33-10. Tonga stormed back with three tries but could convert only one in closing within six of Canada. James Pritchard finished the match with his fourth penalty, to go along with conversions to all three Canada tries, including his own. "My heart stopped a couple of times there," said Canada captain Aaron Carpenter, who celebrated his 50th cap. Canada can clinch the Pacific Nations Cup with a win in Japan on June 19. Thats four days after the team plays Ireland in Toronto. ------ Canada 36 (Matt Evans, Sean Duke, James Pritchard tries; Pritchard 3 conversions, 4 penalties, Ciaran Hearn penalty), Tonga 27 (Lua Lokotui, Viliami Iongi, Fetuu Vainikolo, Will Helu tries; Kurt Morath conversion, penalty, Paula Kaho conversion).
