Julia Mancuso gave herself a shot to win yet another Olympic medal on Monday morning in Sochi, taking the lead in womens super-combined after the first of two runs. Mancuso stayed true to her reputation as a skier who rises to the occasion in big events, crossing nearly a half-second faster than all other competitors in the downhill run at Rosa Khutor. Mancusos time was one minute, 42.68 seconds. The Reno, Nev., native has three career Olympic medals, including a silver in the super-combi at the Vancouver Olympics. The 29-year-old has struggled this season, with her last World Cup podium in March 2013, . She will now hope to fend off skiers who are better in the slalom, in a run that will take place at 6 a.m. ET. At the very least, shes laid claim to top contender status for Wednesdays downhill. The rest of the top 5 after the first run includes some of the best womens skiers of recent years: Lara Gut of Switzerland is in second, followed by Tina Maze of Slovenia, Anna Fenninger of Austria, and defending Olympic champion Maria Hoefl-Riesch of Germany. Nicole Hosp of Austria, 2006 Olympic silver medallist in the slalom, still has a shot at the podium after an eighth place showing in the downhill. Marie-Michèle Gagnon, the lone Canadian in the event, sits in 21st place. Gagnon generally does not compete in the downhill during the World Cup season. She has four top 5 finishes in the slalom within the past year, and will need that kind of performance in the second run and some breaks elsewhere to be a factor. The 24-year-old Lac-Etchemin, Que., native won a super-combined event in January, but it was comprised of a super-G and slalom.   Montee Ball Blue Jersey .Va. -- Drew Brees stood on the sideline throughout the Saints first scrimmage of training camp on Saturday, resting a strained abdominal muscle on his left side and likely watching with envy as his backups cashed in on the big-play potential of rookie receiver Brandin Cooks.

Today we asked: with so many new Canadian players entering the NBA and Andrew Wiggins on the way, where is Canada as a basketball nation and what are the next steps for the National team? Jacks take: It is really cool to watch the emergence of the sport of Basketball across Canada. Ive seen it happen on two different levels over the past 25+ years, first as an NCAA Division 1 Coach at Niagara for 10 Years and then for the past 15+ as a broadcaster in Canada. The Best is yet to come. The exposure to the sport is top-shelf and kids are getting better instruction and coaching than theyve ever had. The key will be the loyalty of the Canadian players to play for their country and succeed at the international level. There are lots of expectations now and with that comes the pressure. A strong fundamental base and demands on playing the game as a team will be paramount. There are Lots of talented young players emerging on the scene at the same time which is great yet a concern as well. These guys need to know how to sacrifice for the greater good and not allow the narrow-minded selfishness of youth to overtake whats good for the team. Who will be the winning veteran examples for them? Talent only gets you so far. Team play, toughness, role definition, maturity, selflessness and smarts will be the factors that have to become more and more evident each day. The potential is there -- now there must be a willingness to lay it all on the line and represent your nation with no strings attached and do it the right way for the right reasons. Im fascinated to see how it will all work out. Watsons take: The talent has already established itself, now its a matter of nurturing and developing it. Canada is a top five basketball country in terms of talent, however the mens global ranking at 25th in the world, by FIBA isnt far off. They havent been able to compete and win as a country, failing to qualify for the World Cup at the FIBA Americas this summer. Not to say they wont, but this "golden era" exists more on the NBA court than the international one. Excluding tthe US, Canada boasts the second most players in the league after France.dddddddddddd. With the season tipping off on Tuesday night, Cory Joseph (Spurs), Kelly Olynyk (Celtics), Joel Anthony (Heat), Tristan Thompson (Cavaliers), Steve Nash (Lakers), Robert Sacre (Lakers), Andrew Nicholson (Magic), and No. 1 draft pick Anthony Bennett (Cavaliers) were all on NBA rosters. Thats an unprecedented number of Canadians in the league. The Canadian team needs to develop chemistry, the bulk of the players are not only new to the program, but most are new to international basketball. Furthermore, they havent really played together, and while it may not happen in Rio at the Olympics, the players are committed and the program is definitely headed in the right direction. On the NBA court, the Canadian invasion will continue and its quite likely a Canadian will be playing in the All-Star Game in Toronto in 2016. Lewenbergs take: "This really is the golden age of Canadian basketball," Steve Nash famously proclaimed just as the Senior Mens National Team got set to embark on its first test in Venezuela this summer. Despite feelings of renewed optimism and legitimate signs of positive growth in the tournament, the FIBA Americas ended in familiar disappointment for Canada. However, as Nash and company have reminded us, this is just the beginning. It goes without saying now, because it has been said so many times in recent months, Canada is further along as a basketball nation than it has ever been. Entering his third year in the NBA, Tristan Thompson has exceeded all expectations with the Cavs, Cory Joseph cracked the playoff rotation in San Antonio last spring and Andrew Nicholson is poised for a breakout sophomore season with the Magic. Then there are Anthony Bennett, Kelly Olynyk and Andrew Wiggins who have played in zero NBA games and have yet to suit up for the Canadian senior team. And thats not to mention the rest of the countrys collegiate talent and young players turning heads north of the border every day. Nash was wrong, or exaggerating for effect. This isnt the golden age of Canadian basketball, not yet. But its coming and its not far off. cheap nfl jerseys ' ' '
