harp pass to Turris for his second short-

TORONTO - Ottawas first season back in the CFL ended with a 16th loss Friday night, leaving Redblacks coach Rick Campbell gritting his teeth but still seeing positives. Vapormax Plus Black Cheap .Its tough, he said after a 23-5 defeat at the hands of the Toronto Argonauts. I dont like losing.I think theres the potential for a good football team sitting in that (locker) room. Were not a good football team yet, he added. Our effort and our attitudes not an issue. We just need to become a better football team that can make more plays to win football games.Despite their 2-16 record — Ottawa defeated Toronto 18-17 on July 17 and Winnipeg 42-20 on Oct. 3, both at home — the Redblacks often pushed back.They led at some point in 12 of the 18 games and 10 contests were not decided until the final three minutes.Campbell reckons the Redblacks could have won six or seven games had they been able to close the deal. But despite the record, he sees progress given there were just six players and no coaches when he got hired.So it was going to be a battle. But its been a fun battle. I wouldnt trade it for anything in the world, Campbell said. Im going to be a better coach after this season, just going through this whole experience. I truly feel fortunate to be part of this whole situation because theres going to be bright days ahead and theres a lot of reasons to like the Redblacks.On Friday, there were plenty of holes, however. The Ottawa tackling was abysmal and Argonaut receivers were allowed to operate in acres of space.The Redblacks offence was spotty.Ottawa managed just three first downs (to Torontos 16) and 53 yards net offence in the first half before finding a higher gear in the second half. Ten of Torontos 20 first-half points followed interceptions of Redblacks passes, with Henry Burris and backup Danny OBrien splitting quarterback duties.Ultimately the fourth quarter proved to be the Redblacks Achilles heel this season. They were outscored in the final quarter in 12 of the 18 games (Fridays fourth quarter was a 3-3 tie although Ottawa won the second half 5-3).Overall Ottawa was outscored 146-51 in the final quarter. The Redblacks did not score more than seven points in any fourth quarter this year while allowing 10 points or more eight times in the final 15 minutes.The third quarter wasnt much better. Ottawa managed just 53 points all seasons.The lack of late scoring explains why Ottawa was 0-11 when trailing at the half and 0-13 when trailing after three quarters.Ottawa didnt help itself, ranking worst in the league in giveaways and third worst in takeaways going into the season finale.Weve got to understand that a lot of the things that we did were all self-inflicted, said Burris, citing the need to be more consistent on offence. Campbell said the off-season challenge is to review the teams playbook, ensure the current players come back better versions of themselves and add more talent.I think we have a core group here ... we need to add to this young football team and have a few more guys that can make plays.Receiver Kahlil Paden showed his playmaking skills in the fourth quarter, hauling in an OBrien pass for a season-high 77 yards. While the Redblacks went 0-9 on the road, they were a hit at home with all nine crowds in excess of 24,000.I think we have a fantastic situation in Ottawa, with the fans, the facilities, the owners, said Campbell. Were a united front. We all believe in this thing. The losing is tough now but well continue to work at this thing and well become a better football team.Said Burris: The fans have been amazing. The patience that theyve shown, the support that theyve shown is unlike any other. Im just thankful to be a part of it. Its an honour.The Redblacks join the 1988 Ottawa Rough Riders and the 1997 Hamilton Tiger-Cats as teams that ended the season with 16 losses.It is what it is as far as this season (goes), said the 39-year-old Burris. We didnt end it on the note that we wanted to but now we have the blueprint for what its going to take as far as how to get it done.Were going to make this thing work, he added.___Follow @NeilMDavidson on Twitter Black Tns Sale . Top-ranked Rafael Nadal was also taken to three sets but emerged with a 6-3, 6-7 (3), 6-3 win over Tobias Kamke of Germany, while second-seeded David Ferrer joined Murray in making an early exit after a 6-4, 7-5 loss to Daniel Brands of Germany.

Espanyol midfielder Sanchez intercepted Bilbao goalkeeper Gorka Iraizozs clearance and, having spotted a gap, risked using his less-favoured left foot to fire a beautifully precise long-range shot that bounced in from high up the near post in the 24th minute. http://www.airmaxplusstoresale.com/ . Tottenham claimed top spot in Group K by winning 2-0 at Tromso after defender Adnan Causevic scored an own goal before Mousa Dembele put the result beyond doubt. Valencia made sure it will finish first in Group A with a 1-0 win at Swansea thanks to an early goal from Dani Parejo.MINSK, Belarus - For the second time at the world hockey championship, Team Canada benefited from a five-minute major penalty. Only this time it could prove much more costly. Alex Burrows was knocked out of the game by a knee-on-knee hit and did not return for the rest of Canadas 6-1 win over Italy on Friday at Chizhovka Arena. Cody Hodgson scored on the ensuing power play from the five-minute major penalty on Italian forward Joachim Ramoser. But with goals from Joel Ward, Jason Chimera, Kyle Turris, another from Hodgson and a final one from Brayden Schenn, Canada probably didnt need that boost. Against the Czech Republic on Monday, Canada scored twice on a five-minute major after captain Kevin Bieksa took a stick to the face, chipping a tooth and requiring stitches in his mouth. Bieksa didnt miss a shift. His Vancouver Canucks teammate Burrows was not so lucky. After writhing in pain after the hit, he needed to be helped off the ice by teammates Brayden Schenn and Nathan MacKinnon and did not put any pressure on his right leg. Without Burrows and defenceman Jason Garrison, who did not dress because of an illness, Canada was down to 18 skaters to Italys 20. That wasnt a factor as the Canadians won for the fifth time in six games to set up a likely Group A title game against Sweden on Sunday. In stopping 21 of the 22 shots he faced, James Reimer might have won the right to start that game, though Ben Scrivens won each of his two starts. Through the first five games in Minsk, neither goalie has been tested by a strong opponent. That included Friday, when Canada rolled over Italy. Afteer Italy had Canada on its heels in the early going, Ward continued his strong tournament by scoring the games first goal at 13:07. Air Max Plus Wholesale. . Ward forced a neutral-zone turnover, had Mark Scheifele going to the net on the rush and snapped a shot short-side on Daniel Bellissimo, a Toronto native. Ramoser made what looked like unintentional knee-on-knee contact with Burrows with 56 seconds left in the first period. A minute and 39 seconds into the second, Hodgson scored on a rebound to make it 2-0. Canadas third goal came at even strength but with a delayed penalty on Italy as Ward drew a call before Scheifele set up Chimera on a two-on-one rush at 6:02. Not long after at the 9:19 mark, Matt Read got things going and delivered a sharp pass to Turris for his second short-handed goal in as many games. Hodgson added his second of the day and sixth of the tournament 16:15 into the second with a rebound goal from in tight on Bellissimo that made it 5-0. Bellissimo did not return at the start of the third after giving up five goals on 22 shots, replaced by backup Andreas Bernard. Italy then broke up Reimers shutout 1:12 into the third period on a deflection goal by David Borrelli, who is from Sault Ste. Marie, Ont. At 16:30, Schenn scored to put the finishing touch on the rout. Notes: Bellissimo and Borrelli are two of 10 Canadian-born players on Italys roster. The others are Daniel Sullivan, Brian Ihnacak and Davide Nicoletti from Toronto, Giulio Scandella from Montreal, Nate DiCasmirro from Aitkokan, Ont., Dan Tudin from Orleans, Ont., Trevor Johnson from Trail, B.C., and Vince Rocco from Woodbridge, Ont.
