LAUSANNE, Switzerland -- Yulia Zaripova, the Russian gold medalist in the womens 3,000-meter steeplechase at the 2012 London Olympics, was among 12 more athletes sanctioned Monday after testing positive in a reanalysis of their doping samples. Tom Van Arsdale Jersey.Zaripova was among seven medalists -- all from countries of the former Soviet Union -- disqualified retroactively from the London Games after their stored samples were retested with improved techniques and came back positive for banned substances.Also sanctioned Monday by the International Olympic Committee were nine weightlifters, a hammer thrower and a long jumper.Zaripova tested positive for the steroid turinabol on a urine sample she provided after winning the steeplechase final on Aug. 6, 2012, the IOC said.Zaripova was already expected to lose the gold medal over a separate doping violation prosecuted by the IAAF. She had previously served a 2+-year ban for irregularities in her biological passport. As a result of that violation, the Court of Arbitration for Sport had disqualified all of her results from July 2011 to July 2013, including the London Olympics.A three-person IOC disciplinary commission said in its ruling that a decision in Zaripovas case has already been issued and has become final and binding and there is no longer any interest to continue the present proceedings and to issue a decision.The panel recommended that the IOC implement the IAAF decision to amend the Olympic results and strip Zaripova of the gold medal. Under the revised results, Habiba Ghribi of Tunisia takes the gold, with Sofia Assefa of Ethiopia moving to silver and Milcah Chemos Cheywa of Kenya the bronze.Other athletes stripped of London medals on Monday were: Alexander Ivanov, Russia, silver, mens 94-kilogram weightlifting division; Natliya Zabolotnaya, Russia, silver, womens 75kg weightlifting; Cristina Iovu, Moldova, bronze, womens 53kg weightlifting; Hripsime Khurshudyan, Armenia, bronze, womens 75kg weightlifting; Irina Kulesha, Belarus, bronze, womens 75kg weightlifting; and Anatoli Ciricu, Moldova, bronze, mens 94kg weightlifting.The non-medalists were Andrei Demanov, Russia, fourth place, mens 94kg weightlifting; Oleksandr Dryhol, Ukraine, 34th place, mens hammer throw; Rauli Tsirekidze, Georgia, ninth place, 85kg weightlifting; Margaryta Tverdokhlib, Ukraine, 26th place, womens long jump; and Almas Uteshov, Kazakhstan, seventh place, mens 94kg weightlifting.The IOC reanalyzed more than 1,000 stored samples from the London Games and 2008 Beijing Games in order to catch cheats who escaped detection at the time. The new tests can detect the use of steroids going back weeks and months, rather than days.The IOC recorded at least 98 positive tests from the London and Beijing retesting program, with more expected in the pipeline. The IOC also plans to retest samples from the 2014 Sochi Winter Games after the former Russian lab director said samples were manipulated to cover up doping by Russian athletes. Sacramento Kings Gear. They hope to persuade the other team owners and commissioner Roger Goodell to put pressure on Redskins owner Daniel Snyder to drop the nickname they find offensive. "Given the way the meeting transpired," Ray Halbritter, an Oneida representative and leader of the "Change the Mascot Campaign," said Wednesday, "it became somewhat evident they were defending the continued use of the name. Sam Lacey Jersey. Isner, ranked No. 14, won his eighth career singles title and took the title in New Zealand for the second time after his victory in 2010. The match was similar to Isners quarterfinal victory over fifth-seeded Philipp Kohlschreiber which went to three sets, all tiebreaks and contained no breaks of serve. https://www.cheapkingsbasketball.com/612...rsey-kings.html. To the surprise of many, it isnt the Wolverines but their in-state rivals the Michigan State Spartans. Mike Zimmer made the right call, starting Sam Bradford over Shaun Hill. Mike McCarthy made a costly decision, giving up a field goal to go on fourth down.Bradford outplayed Aaron Rodgers in an impressive debut for the Vikings, and Minnesota celebrated the opening of its new $1.1 billion stadium by defeating the Green Bay Packers 17-14.Bradford, acquired from the Philadelphia Eagles on Sept. 3 for a first-round pick and a conditional fourth-round choice, watched Hill lead the Vikings (2-0) to a season-opening win. He continued his crash course in a new offense, but Zimmer didnt reveal who would start against the Packers until Bradford came out with the first unit in warmups.Minnesota didnt trade two picks for Bradford to sit on the bench. Still, there was some thought Hill deserved another start while Bradford got more time to learn a new system.I was impressed with pretty much everything he did, Zimmer said of Bradford. I thought he had great composure. I thought he had good control of things.The result couldve been different if McCarthy let Mason Crosby kick a tying 31-yard field goal late in the third quarter. Instead, the Packers went for a fourth-and-2 and James Starks was stopped 1 yard short.Bradford tossed his second TD pass on the ensuing drive to give Minnesota a 17-7 lead.I felt the advantage was to the offense in that particular situation. We all saw the play call, and its my decision, McCarthy said. I definitely felt we were playing the way we needed to play.Heres a closer look behind other important calls in Week 2:WHAT IS A CATCH?: Fans, coaches and players are still perplexed by the NFLs catch rule. In the second quarter at Houston, Kansas Citys Demetrius Harris appeared to make a catch and take about three steps before he was stripped and lost the ball. But the play was reviewed and changed to an incomplete pass.Later in the quarter, a no-catch against DeAndre Hopkins cost the Texans a TD and they settled for a field goal. Despite the calls, Houston beat the Chiefs 19-12.I dont know anything about the catch rule, Texans coach Bill OBrien said. Somebody is going to have to really sit down with me and explain to me the catch rule.GUTSY TOSS: On ffourth-and-5 with the game on the line, Marcus Mariota threw a perfect 9-yard TD pass to a well-covered Andre Johnson with 1:13 left to lift the Titans to a 16-15 win over Detroit. Oscar Robertson Jersey. Mariota lofted the pass over one defender and into Johnsons arms just out of the reach of a second defender and right before a third defender could bat it away.We had a matchup with Andre on a linebacker, Mariota said. We felt that we could kind of exploit that a little bit, and he made a great play. I just tried to give him a chance.ITS TRICKY: The Cowboys tried an onside kick after taking a 20-17 lead in the third quarter at Washington. The football traveled less than the required 10 yards, so the Redskins got the ball at Dallas 38 and drove for a tying field goal. Dak Prescott eventually led the Cowboys to the winning score after Kirk Cousins threw an end-zone interception .FLIPPED: A taunting call on Clevelands Terrelle Pryor for flipping the ball at a defender with 27 seconds remaining negated a 20-yard catch to the Ravens 10. Josh McCown was intercepted on the next play and the Browns lost 25-20.Im sure the officials are looking for certain things and sometimes those things will get called, Browns coach Hue Jackson said.CLOCK MISMANAGEMENT: Broncos coach Gary Kubiak decided to kick a field goal on fourth-and-1 from the Colts 17 with 1:54 left to extend Denvers lead to 26-20. But Indianapolis had no timeouts left, so if Denver went for it and converted, the Broncos would have been able run out the clock. If Indys defense held, Andrew Luck still would have had to drive the offense a long way.Von Miller made sure it didnt matter with his sack-strip , but Kubiak second-guessed himself afterward.Ill be honest with you, I really didnt like my decision, Kubiak said. I know thats crazy.
