GUELPH, Ont. -- Hamilton running back C.J. Gable came into Saturdays game with last weeks close loss in Vancouver fresh on his mind. For the 35-year-old rookie, the Tiger-Cats rematch against the B.C. Lions wasnt so much about revenge as it was a chance to make things right. Gable scored a 32-yard TD reception and had 108 yards receiving yards and 49 rushing yards as the Tiger-Cats defeated the Lions 37-29 in front of 13,101 at the University of Guelphs Alumni Stadium. "I felt real good," said Gable, who also had a fumble. "The line was blocking excellent today. The holes were there. The receivers were blocking perfect. Today it all worked." Hamilton improves to 5-5, while the Lions fall to 6-4. "I want to see what they say about us now," said Gable. Hamilton quarterback Henry Burris threw four touchdown passes and two interceptions as his team got off to a great start, pulling to a 34-8 lead. But the wheels began to fall off in the fourth quarter as Hamilton allowed a B.C. comeback that just fell short. "We cant have those lulls that we had," Burris said. "To have three turnovers like we had and give B.C. a chance to get back in the game, and leave our defence on the field, thats uncalled for from us. "They really didnt do anything different from what they did in the first half. Weve just got to be better in our execution part. Im a part of that. We did enough early on to get enough points ... but we cant have those lulls and put our defence in those situations." Burris completed 25 of 35 pass attempts for 375 yards to go with his four TDs and two picks. Greg Ellingson scored two touchdowns for the Ticats and had 111 passing yards while Andy Fantuz caught one TD and totalled 112 yards in the air. Shawn Gore, Nick Moore and Courtney Taylor scored for the Lions. Moore led all receivers with 159 yards. Hamilton kicker Luca Congi was good on all three field goal attempts, from 29 and two from 39 yards. His final 39-yarder with 4:03 left in the game quieted a late B.C. comeback. B.C. kicker Paul McCallum hit two of three attempts, making kicks from 10 and 18 yards and missing from 44. B.C. quarterback Travis Lulay completed 26 of 43 pass attempts for 334 yards, two touchdowns and zero interceptions, but his 21-point fourth quarter fell just short. The Lions were down 34-8 heading into the final quarter. "We have to find a way to be better in the first half," Lulay said. "We had a couple opportunities in the first half down tight. If we convert one or two of those and then if we dont give them a short field, coming right out at the third quarter ... its the first couple minutes of that third quarter that put us in a real tough situation." The Ticats were up 17-8 at halftime and widened their lead on the opening drive of the second half, driving the ball 69 yards downfield on four plays and finishing with a 32-yard catch-and-run by Gable. B.C. took possession and on its first play from scrimmage. Lulay hit Nick Moore for 20 yards, but Moore fumbled and Hamilton defensive back Courtney Stephen recovered the ball and returned it 31 yards to the B.C. 23-yard line. On the next play, Burris hit Ellingson for the TD and a 31-8 lead less than four minutes into the second half. Congis 39-yarder made it 34-8. Then the Lions woke up. B.C. was driving at the end of the third, and, aided by a 19-yard pass interference call in the end zone, capped the 55-yard drive off with a one-yard score by Gore to start the fourth and pull to 34-15. The Lions pulled to 34-22 with a 43-yard drive and a five-yard pass to Moore with nine minutes left in the game. Ryan Phillips intercepted Burris at the B.C. 14-yard line to continue the Lions momentum, but the Hamilton defence held them deep with a sack. Ticat back-up quarterback Dan LeFevour took over for Burris to help eat up the clock with about five minutes left in the game, and Congi hit a 39-yard field goal for a 37-22 lead with 4:03 on the clock. B.C. converted a third-and-10 at midfield with a 17-yard completion to Moore. That continued the 75-yard scoring drive that ended with a 15-yard TD throw to Taylor and the Lions pulled to 37-29 with 1:57 on the clock. Hamilton had to convert a third-and-short at its own 31-yard line at 1:19 to keep the ball out of the hands of Lulay. But he eventually got it back at his own 37 with 10 seconds to go. The Hamilton defence went into a prevent formation and a rugby match broke out as the Lions kept tossing laterals until they were finally stopped. In the first half, Congi opened the scoring with a 29-yard field goal. Hamilton kicker Josh Bartel conceded a safety for B.C.s first points and the Lions later added a 10-yard field goal. Early in the second quarter, Fantuz finished a 75-yard Hamilton drive when he stole a ball from the hands of lunging B.C. defender Josh Bell and ran it in for a 37-yard TD. Less than six minutes later, Burris found Ellingson for a seven-yard TD strike that capped a 56-yard drive. The Ticats had trouble running out the clock late in the half and B.C. got the ball back on the Hamilton 45 with 41 seconds left. They got as close as first-and-goal at the Hamilton four-yard line. But the Ticats defence stood its ground to end the half, limiting the Lions to an 18-yard field goal. cheap china jerseys . - Andrew McCutchen went 4 for 5 and finished a home run short of a cycle, and Jordy Mercer drove in a career-high four runs to lead the Pittsburgh Pirates to an 8-2 rout of the Philadelphia Phillies on Friday. replica jerseys china .In the Football Money League compiled by accountancy firm Deloitte, German champion Bayern Munich remained third but Barcelona dropped from second to fourth during its trophyless 2014.In the 2013-2014 financial year, Real generated 549. https://www.chinajerseysreplica.us/.

Coe went on the offensive after another week of doping scandals rocked the Olympic movement.The International Olympic Committee announced on Thursday that 23 athletes who competed in London have tested positive from 265 retested samples. That is top of over 30 previous failed tests from competitors who had been caught either during the Games or since. The high percentage of apparent doping offences sparked suggestions on Friday that London was rife with cheating, but Coe denies that is the case.Lord Coe, now the president of world athletics governing body the IAAF, served as the London 2012 organising committee chairman. Lord Sebastian Coe denies 2012 was the dirtiest Games The former middle-distance track star claims in the Sunday Telegraph that at the time of the 1984 Olympics in Los Angeles, where he competed and won 1500m gold, technology was prehistoric and says many athletes would pick and base their schedules on the athletics circuit in large part on the avoidance of testing.The IOC has said its reanalysis programme is ongoing, with the possibility of more results in the weeks to come.Coe wrote in his newspaper column: It would be delusional to say the London Games was in the words of many yesterday dirtier than Games before.He added: The message from Friday was not only, or eeven actually, about interpreting trends.ddddddddddddThe big message was for athletes to recognise that just because they may be ahead of the testing technology at a particular moment in their career, it does not mean they can lie easily in their beds until excitable grandchildren pore over Olympic medals in their dotage.They will be caught. They will then have the discomfort of explaining to those grandchildren why they no longer possess those medals. More is being done to catch cheats than ever before. Anti-doping test samples We will not stop collecting data, sharing information, building profiles, developing testing techniques or calling out and prosecuting cheats in our efforts to protect and promote clean sport. The Rio 2016 Games will be cleaner for it. That should be the story.The new findings cover five different sports and six international federations, and were all based on intelligence-gathering that began in August 2015.Russia has said eight of its athletes are among the 23 to have tested positive on reanalysis.All athletes found to have infringed the anti-doping rules will be banned from competing at the Rio Olympics this summer.
