CALGARY -- Brad Sinopoli and Marquay McDaniel made the most of their opportunities on Friday night. cheap jerseys from china . With Calgary trailing Edmonton by eight points late in their CFL pre-season clash, McDaniel caught a 15-yard pass from Sinopoli and then a five-yard pass for a two-point convert as the Stampeders rallied to tie the Eskimos 17-17 at 13:54 of the fourth quarter. "He ran an incredible route at the end there to get open," said Sinopoli, who was the fourth Calgary quarterback to appear in the game. "I just had to put it on him and he made a great catch." A 30-yard field goal by Rob Maver with no time left on the clock capped off a wild 20-17 win for the Stamps in front of an announced crowd of 23,629 fans at McMahon Stadium. "It was definitely an exciting atmosphere, especially at the end of the game," said McDaniel, who finished with five catches for 56 yards. "We were so close. We were getting that momentum and we just wanted to finish it." Rene Paredes and Maver both finished the game with a pair of field goals for the Stamps. After the game, Sinopoli could barely believe the Stamps comeback. "You sit there and hope for it and then it happens," said Sinopoli, who completed 5-of-8 passes for 55 yards. "Its crazy." In the last minute of play, David Pittman deflected a punt by Edmontons Derek Schiavone to give Calgary the ball back and set up Mavers winning field goal. "Basically I just came off of the edge and gave my dude a little side-step move," Pittman said. "He went for it and I had a free run to the punter. I just stuck my hands out and blocked it. "The blocked punt, it just gave us a chance to get the ball back with a short field and the opportunity to kick a field goal." The victory proved to be costly for the Stamps though as head coach and general manager John Hufnagel said that running back LaMarcus Coker suffered a knee injury and was sent for an MRI, while wide receiver Anthony Parker sustained a concussion. Joe Burnett returned an interception 80 yards for a touchdown in the second quarter for the Eskimos, who built up a 17-9 lead before the Stamps rallied for the victory. Burnett, a defensive back who spent last season on Edmontons practice roster, picked off an errant pass by starting Calgary quarterback Drew Tate and ran the length of the field for the Eskimos lone touchdown. Grant Shaw kicked a pair of field goals for Edmonton, which rested several veterans including quarterbacks Kerry Joseph and Steven Jyles, both of whom the Eskimos acquired in the off-season. Schiavone also booted a field goal. Matt Nichols started the game at quarterback for the Eskimos and completed 10 of 20 passes for 108 yards, but also threw two interceptions. "I havent had many opportunities to be in games at all, so just getting this opportunity to be able to get some film work and now I can learn from some of the things I need to work on," Nichols said. "Its just a learning curve. Thats why we have the pre-season. Its really not something where you can just throw guys into a professional football game and have them be 100 per cent successful right off the get-go. I think these guys are going to learn, Im going to learn and were just going to get better from it." Burke Dales, who signed with the Eskimos in the off-season, accounted for all of the scoring in the first quarter with a 69-yard punt single. Early in the second quarter, Stamps defensive back Fred Bennett picked off an errant pass thrown by starting Eskimos quarterback Matt Nichols to stop an Edmonton drive. Largely thanks to four carries by Calgary running back Jon Cornish totalling 34 yards, the Stamps appeared to be on the verge of scoring before Tate threw the costly interception to Burnett. After Schiavone kicked a 45-yard field goal to extend Edmontons lead to 11-0, Parades replied with a pair of field goals from 35 and 37 yards out to get the Stampeders on the board. With the Eskimos threatening to score once again early in the third quarter, Bennett intercepted another pass by Nichols to end Edmontons drive. In the third, Maver had a chance to pull the Stamps closer to the Eskimos but his field goal attempt from 32 yards out hit the left upright and bounced back into the field of play. Maver then redeemed himself later in the quarter by kicking a 50-yard field goal. In the fourth quarter, Shaw connected on field goals from 21 and 12 yards out to increase Edmontons lead to 17-9. Notes: Bennett also picked off a pass by Edmonton quarterback Jeremiah Masoli in the fourth quarter for what would have been his third interception of the game, but the play was nullified due to a penalty to the Stampeders for too many men on the field. ...

Lions in their second and final pre-season game on June 21, while the Stamps will travel to Regina to face the Saskatchewan Roughriders to round out their exhibition schedule on June 22. cheap jerseys from china wholesale . -- Tajh Boyd sent Sammy Watkins out wide to the right, and saw freshman Tim Harris sliding over in man-to-man coverage. cheap jerseys from china paypal .

Brooks drew up a play for Kevin Durant on Friday night, but it was Russell Westbrook that came through in the end. Westbrooks corner 3-pointer with 0.1 seconds left in overtime gave Oklahoma City a wild 113-112 victory over the Golden State Warriors. Brooks drew up the play to get Durant the ball, but the NBA scoring leaders floater missed with 12 seconds left. Officials called the ball out on Golden State and used replay to confirm the call. After the review, Serge Ibakas 15-foot jump shot missed the mark and the ball looked headed out of bounds before Thabo Sefoloshas diving save gave the Thunder one final try. Sefolosha found Westbrook, who took off one way, turned the other and drilled the 3-pointer over Harrison Barnes to give the Thunder the win. "When he tells people about out this one, he doesnt have to exaggerate it because theres no bigger fish story than what he did tonight," Brooks said of Westbrooks heroics. Westbrooks shot was reviewed as well but once again, replay sided with the Thunder. When Westbrook snagged the ball, there was no question he was going for the win. "Im not going to tie the game," Westbrook said. "Theres no need to tie the game. I did the same thing in Golden State but unfortunately it didnt work out for us." In that game on Nov. 14, it was the Warriors who came out ahead with a big last-second shot, when Andre Iguodalas fallaway jumper at the buzzer gave Golden State a 116-115 win. "It was a fortunate bounce for them," Golden States Stephen Curry said. "A lot of good things happened for them in that possession. Its frustrating for us tonight." Westbrook scored a season-high 34 points on 10-of-25 shooting, Durant added 25 and the Thunder won their sixth consecutive game overall and ninth straight at home to start the season. &quoot;That was fun," Durant said. cheap jerseys from china free shipping. . "I was so excited for him. Its been a long time coming. Hes been working on that. He had that confidence to take that shot, so Im glad we won it. It was a fun game to be a part of." While Durant figures to get the majority of chances at game-winning shots, Westbrook is at least making Brooks think when he draws up plays in the final seconds. "Russell has the ability to make shots," Brooks said. "I look at it as Kevin and Russell have the ability to attract two guys on the ball." Ibaka continued his strong November with his third consecutive double-double, with 13 points and 10 rebounds. Curry had 32 points, hitting four 3-pointers, to lead the Warriors. Barnes added a career-high 26 points. The Thunder slowed down Golden States leading scorer, Klay Thompson, early. Thompson missed 11 of his first 12 shots and finished 5 of 19 from the floor. He hit just two of his nine 3-pointers. Durant had a chance to win it in regulation but missed a fadeaway jumper just before the buzzer. Durant helped the Thunder get back into the game after a quiet first three quarters, scoring 12 points in the fourth period. After the game, Brooks was looking forward to reliving the moment again. "Theres so many good moments I cant wait to watch it tonight," Brooks said. "These are the reasons were all in this, for moments that will last forever."
