NEW YORK -- In a story Aug. Jared Goff Womens Jersey . 13 about NBCs coverage of the Olympics, The Associated Press, relying on information provided by a publicist, reported erroneously that the online subscription content service Fullscreen made a 10-episode sports docuseries, Keeping Score, on the U.S. womens soccer team. The series is only six episodes.A corrected version of the story is below:A memorable daytime soccer game for NBCThe U.S. womens soccer teams unexpected loss made for some memorable moments for NBCBy DAVID BAUDERAP Television WriterNEW YORK -- The non-stop nature of soccer helped and hindered NBCs Arlo White and Kate Markgraf in their coverage of the U.S. womens team, which lost to Sweden on penalty kicks Friday and was bounced from the Olympics.The USA are distraught, White said, describing the aftermath of Lisa Dahlkvists deciding penalty.He expertly built the tension throughout the broadcast and reflected the significance of the three-time defending Olympic champions and defending World Cup winners heading home without a medal. White and Markgraf caught a bit of soccer gamesmanship before the last penalty kick, when U.S. goalkeeper Hope Solo changed gloves to make Dahlkvist wait a little while and think about her shot.There were two huge moments right before the penalty kicks when the Americans and then the Swedes had goals disallowed on what appeared to be questionable offside calls.Asked to take a stand on Lotta Schelins disallowed goal for Sweden, Markgraf hedged. The refs call appeared wrong, she said, but I do need to take another look at the play.She never got that chance. The soccer clock keeps ticking. When the extra time period ended shortly thereafter, NBC switched to a round of commercials and the controversial calls were not re-examined. Contrast that to an American football game, when theres enough downtime after a close call to see about a dozen replays.One other thing: The soccer teams loss -- and Solos subsequent sour grapes remark that the Swedish team was a bunch of cowards -- was the biggest Olympics story on Friday, at least from an American perspective. It deserved more than a minutes recap on NBC just before midnight.POLAROID MOMENT: Superb prep work by NBC was on display shortly after Joseph Schooling of Singapore upset Michael Phelps in the 100-meter butterfly. The network flashed a picture of a 13-year-old Schooling meeting Phelps, his hero, in 2008 -- amusing even a gracious Phelps. Phelps took a backseat to the other American swimmers on Thursday. Katie Ledecky cruised in the 800-meter freestyle, Maya Dirado stretched just far enough to win the 200-meter backstroke and, at the ripe old age of 35, Anthony Ervin won gold in the 50-meter freestyle, repeating his victory from the 2000 Olympics. In the intervening years, Ervin admitted to drifting. He was on my couch for awhile, said NBC analyst Rowdy Gaines.WATER-LOGGED: Yes, it appears some NBC viewers wont be sorry to see the Olympic pool shut down. NBC Olympic slogan: every four years the worlds greatest athletes gather to witness a 7-day swim meet, tweeted Allen Tyger, who describes himself as a college minister from Missouri.QUOTE: Team USA played like it was a Thursday night in Milwaukee in February. Totally uninspired. -NBC basketball analyst Fran Fraschilla, describing the teams tight 94-91 victory over Serbia.Milwaukee, are you listening?MAN-BUN IS BACK: It was almost sadistic, NBC flashing yet another picture of Hungarian swimmer Katinka Hosszus histrionic husband, this team after she won silver behind Dirado. Were they trying to prove some kind of point after being criticized earlier in the games for giving Shane Tusup too much credit for Hosszus victories? Another question: Has he changed his shirt since arriving in Rio?BAD TIMING: The online subscription content service Fullscreen launched in April and made one of its big projects a six-episode sports docuseries, Keeping Score, showing the backstage life of the U.S. womens soccer team, partially from the perspective of Hope Solo. Oops. Only two episodes had been made available before the teams quarterfinal loss, capped by Solos bad sportsmanship. Whos going to be interested now? You watched the game and know the outcome, said Ashley Kaplan, Fullscreens head of content production. But you have no idea what happened in the hotel room afterwards.JONESIN: Saturday Night Lives Lisa Jones has made it to Rio de Janeiro. She was spotted at the Kerri Walsh Jennings and April Ross beach volleyball match.RATINGS: NBCs Thursday prime time, which featured gold-medal performances from American gymnast Simone Biles, swimmer Simone Manuel and, of course, Phelps, reached 31.2 million, the Nielsen company said. That was the second highest viewership of the Rio de Janeiro Games so far, and ticked up to 33 million when online streaming and NBCSNs prime-time telecast are added in. NBC still hasnt topped its record-setting London Games from 2012, however, which had 36.8 million for the corresponding night.---Follow David Bauder at twitter.com/dbauder.

Deacon Jones Rams Jersey . Thats about all he can do right now, so hes trying not to think about when he might be able to play again for the Los Angeles Lakers. http://www.laramsfootballshops.com/david-long-jersey/ . Zvonareva, who won the tournament in 2009 and 10, couldnt handle her opponents big groundstrokes in only her third event back after 17 months out with a shoulder injury. Zvonareva made her comeback in January in Shenzhen and played in the Australian Open but lost her first matches at both tournaments. CHICAGO -- The Chicago Cubs own a staggering 13-game lead over the St. Louis Cardinals in the National League Central.But manager Joe Maddon is keeping focused and calm.The teams wrap up a four-game series Sunday night at Wrigley Field.The Cubs (73-42) took the first two games before the Cardinals won 8-4 on Saturday to snap Chicagos 11-game winning streak.My thought process hasnt changed at all, Maddon said about handling the big lead. Its when you get ready and you walk out there, wheres your mind? Its all about your mind. If your mind is locked in and if youre really, truly focused on today, its pretty easy.If you want to take the blinders off and open this whole thing up and look at the macro component, you might get somewhat complacent or lazy, or your focus may wonder. As long as you just approach today, it doesnt matter.Right-hander John Lackey (9-7, 3.56 ERA) will take the mound for the Cubs and try for his fifth straight quality start. He allowed three hits and one run in eight innings in a 5-1 victory over the Los Angeles Angels in his last start Tuesday.The Cubs are getting used to his emotional side.Hes not going to be out there smiling and hes going to be upset with the umpires, Maddon told MLB.com. Hes going to be upset with his manager. Hes going to be upset with teammates on occasion, but thats who he is. When you know that, its OK.Lackey is 1-1 with a 2.70 ERA this season in three starts against the Cardinals -- his only starts against his former team. He went 16-13 with a 3. Gerald Everett Youth Jersey. 10 ERA in 43 starts with St. Louis from 2014-15.The Cubs are 6-6 against St. Louis this season.For the Cardinals, right-hander Mike Leake (8-9, 4.79) is expected to start. In his last outing, he walked a season-high four, struck out none for the first time this season, and allowed three runs in six innings against his former team the Cincinnati Reds. He gave up 19 earned runs in his previous three starts.Leake is 9-3 with a 3.18 ERA in 20 career starts against the Cubs. He ranks second among National League pitchers, behind Clayton Kershaw of the Los Angeles Dodgers, with a ratio of 1.42 walks per nine innings.Though well behind the Cubs in the division, the Cardinals (61-56) remain in the mix for a wild card spot.The Cardinals are looking for a leadoff hitter now that Matt Carpenter is batting third in the absence of Matt Holliday, who sustained a broken thumb when he was hit by a Mike Montgomery pitch Thursday. Greg Garcia went 0-for-5 batting leadoff Saturday, when Holliday went on the disabled list. Carpenter was 2-for-5 with three strikeouts.The three spot is as much psychological as it is strategic, manager Mike Matheny said. We also need somebody to step up to be that guy at the top of the order. We have a few guys who look like they can help us, kind of give us freedom to be a little more creative with Carpenter.
