ORLANDO, Fla. Authentic Tyson Jackson Jersey . -- Eric Winston was elected president of the NFL Players Association on Wednesday, three years after he was active for the union during the lockout. The 30-year-old offensive lineman was the Arizona Cardinals starting right tackle last season, his eighth in the league. He is currently a free agent. Winston succeeds Domonique Foxworth as NFLPA president. Foxworth was out of the league last season and so could not seek re-election. NFLPA Executive Director DeMaurice Smith tweeted: "Thank you to @Foxworth24 and all the Executive Committee for their leadership. Congratulations to Eric Winston. Lots of great work ahead." The other candidates for president were New Orleans Saints tight end Ben Watson and former Pittsburgh Steelers safety Ryan Clark, who is a free agent. Watson and Clark will both serve on the executive committee elected later Wednesday by the unions board of representatives. Clark joined Lorenzo Alexander and Jay Feely of the Cardinals, Zak DeOssie and Mark Herzlich of the Giants, Adam Vinatieri of the Colts, and Scott Wells of the Rams as new members of the executive committee. Watson, Matt Hasselbeck of the Colts, and free agent Brian Waters were re-elected. Saints quarterback Drew Brees stepped down from the executive committee. Winston has played for Houston, Kansas City and Arizona since being chosen by the Texans in the third round of the 2006 draft. He played his first six NFL seasons with the Texans, joined the Chiefs in 2012, then moved to the Cardinals last season. Winston has started 112 consecutive games. He has served on the unions committees for finance and agent discipline and does community work on behalf of Shriners Hospital for Children. Winston was elected as a co-alternate union representative by the Texans in 2010. While in Kansas City, he drew plenty of national attention early in the 2012 season, when he criticized Chiefs fans who cheered when the teams then-quarterback, Matt Cassel, got a concussion during a game. "Its 100 per cent sickening," Winston said that day. "Ive never, ever -- and Ive been in some rough times on some rough teams -- Ive never been more embarrassed in my life to play football than at that moment right there." Tony Gonzalez Jersey .com) - Rudy Gay posted a game and season-best 40 points along with eight rebounds as Sacramento picked up its first win of the year with a 103-94 triumph over Portland on Friday night. Authentic Devonta Freeman Jersey . - Being told he couldnt race last weekend because of an eye and vision problem will not make Denny Hamlin less likely to seek the help of medical staffs available at NASCAR tracks every weekend, he said Friday.DOVER, Del. - Jeff Gordon doused Team Penskes hot streak with a champagne bath in Victory Lane.Sticky and sweet, Gordon had secured an emphatic automatic spot in the next round of the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship.But Gordons entry in the field of 12 was all but guaranteed even before he dominated the closing laps Sunday at Dover International Speedway. What wasnt so sure was that Hendrick Motorsports teammate Kasey Kahne was coming along for the ride.Kahne survived a bumpy 400 miles, falling four laps back before rallying for a 20th-place finish to nab the 12th and final spot in the field.Kasey made it a pretty long day, owner Rick Hendrick said. We were watching the monitor at the end of the race hoping that we didnt have a caution and Jeff could win it and Kasey could get in. I didnt know exactly how close it was going to be until I watched that monitor.NASCAR tried to inject its 10-race Chase format with a revamped formula for crowning a champion this season. Under NASCARs elimination format, four drivers will be knocked out after every third race. Dover marked the third race.That meant plenty of nerves all around the track — and tons of scoreboard watching.Kurt Busch, AJ Allmendinger, Greg Biffle and Aric Almirola were eliminated from championship contention. Four more drivers will drop out following the next three-race segment that starts next week at Kansas Speedway.Gordon joined Chase winners Brad Keselowski and Joey Logano as the three drivers who were guaranteed a berth in the next Chase round with victories.I think it makes a statement of what type of team we are, Gordon said after his fourth win of the season and 92nd overall. I think that it makes a statement that were a team to beat for this championship.Kevin Harvick also advanced, along with the Hendrick duo of Jimmie Johnson and Dale Earnhardt Jr., and Kyle Busch, Matt Kenseth, Ryan Newman and Denny Hamlin.Hamlin was the lone driver of the bottom four entering Dover to race his way into the top 12. The points will reset for the Kansas, Charlotte and Talladega bracket.The tracks just keep getting better for us as the Chase goes on, Hamlin said. This is going to be a great comeback story.Gordon won for the fifth time at Dover and first since 2001, when he won the last of his four Cup championships.Devonta Freeman Falcons Jersey. Im excited about our chances, not just these next three, but all the way to Homestead, Gordon said.With crew chief Kenny Francis steadying the course after rough pit stops on the No. 5, Kahne survived a scramble that saw him nudge out Allmendinger for the final spot. Allmendinger fell two points shy of the cutoff. Busch was six off, Biffle seven and Almirola 18.I never really got nervous at all and I just raced real hard the whole time, Kahne said. Kenny started telling me we were tied for 12th and this was with 30 to go. Then he would tell me we were one point in and then maybe two points in, and then he wasnt positive. Then I started getting a little bit worried, so it was intense inside the car.Team Penske was rolling, winning four of the last five races dating to Bristol, including the first two Chase races. Keselowski was second at Dover to continue his strong Chase effort through three races.Johnson, Logano and Kenseth completed the top five at Dover. Chase drivers took 10 of 13 spots.

We just need some good luck, Harvick said. If we get some luck, well win races and have a shot at the championship.Kurt Busch, the 2004 Cup champion, failed to advance in his milestone 500th career start.If youre off, its hard to put the car up on your back and run it, Busch said.Gordon had the top car down the stretch and led the last 71 laps to lead a banner day for Hendrick. At 43, Gordon entered the season answering questions about retirement. After wins at Kansas, Indianapolis, Michigan and Dover for his first four-win season since he had six in 2007, Gordon is answering questions about championships and hitting the 100-victory mark.I dont think were going to get to 100 this year, Gordon said, but I hope we get past 93. That would be pretty awesome to get a couple more.Just enough to guarantee him a spot in the winner-takes-all championship race. Cheap JerseysCheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Authentic China Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys ' ' '
