OAKLAND, Calif. Pat McAfee Womens Jersey . -- Steve Kerr joked around on what became a post-mosh Monday, feeling some of the natural pressure before his Golden State Warriors get going at last with all the weight of trying to win another NBA championship on their star-studded shoulders.The reigning NBA Coach of the Year said he cut short practice given Kevin Durants jostling in the mosh pit at a Kanye West concert the previous evening.He got a great workout last night, Kerr said with a smile.Kanye performed at Oracle Arena, where KD will become THE show Tuesday night for the defending Western Conference champions. And MVP Stephen Curry, too, of course.We all have pressure. Thats a good thing, Kerr said Monday. The alternative is, `Maybe we can win 30 this year instead of 25. Who wants that? Unfortunately, a lot of the teams in the league have that, teams that are going through rebuilding stuff, and theyre trying to get where we are. So were in a really enviable position. We know how lucky we are to be together with this group. We understand the responsibility that comes with it, and thats fine. Its a good position to be in.A day away from his highly anticipated Warriors debut, Durant insisted he had no idea just how much daily interest Golden State would generate before the season even began.How much Durants every move would be intently watched -- whether it was his concert-going or riding the BART train to get around.I never had a chance to get to a show. I was always moving around, Olympics and traveling a lot, Durant said of attending Wests show. Im glad he came through here. I was telling all my friends. Ive always told them I wanted to get in a mosh pit. It was amazing.Durant had no concerns about anything going wrong with all those people in tight quarters.Im covered, man. Im covered by a higher power upstairs, no matter what happens, he said.Four months after squandering a 3-1 series lead and losing Game 7 of the NBA Finals to LeBron James and Cleveland, the Warriors are ready to start fresh without any thought on chasing the regular-season wins record they now hold at 73. They will host San Antonio and Kerrs former coach and mentor, Gregg Popovich, on Tuesday night.Its the Spurs, so it makes it even more fun, Kerr said.Golden State also will honor TNT sideline reporter Craig Sager, who is fighting leukemia, with a special T-shirt for all fans at the opener.Kerr has said all along Durant would need time to adjust.Hes light years beyond where he was three weeks ago, Kerr said. Hes embracing the chaos, for sure.With Durant and so many new players, Kerr still expects everything to take time before the Warriors really start clicking. Kerr wasnt even on the bench for last seasons opener, missing the initial 43 games and a record 24-0 start while dealing with complications from a pair of back surgeries.Next week might be even bigger for Durant, whose former Oklahoma City Thunder visit on Nov. 3. Golden State rallied from 3-1 down to beat OKC in the Western Conference Finals.Durants departure was a big deal. It still is.I think theyre just looking for something to grab onto and make it a story, Durant said. We understand that. Thats one thing I actually didnt understand coming in here. Everythings going to be taken and used as a headline. Its definitely a learning experience for me not used to all this coverage around a team. Thats just part of the job. Thats why we get paid the way we do and thats why we are who we are as players. Youre kind of prone to criticism.New center Zaza Pachulia got a glimpse of the attention and hype surrounding the Warriors on media day last month.Hes ready to embrace it.We take it as a compliment because it means youre doing something right. It means youve got good talent here, it means that people want to know about you more than anybody else, he said. Its a huge year for us, a big season, kind of what we expected with a lot of expectations, a lot of eyes on us. Reggie Wayne Jersey .

Devin Funchess Womens Jersey .Y. -- Bills receiver Stevie Johnson has a bone to pick with the NFL schedule maker. http://www.officialindianapoliscoltspro....n-colts-jersey/ . Down by seven with 90 seconds left in regulation, thats where they looked comfortable. Ole Miss Rebels quarterback Chad Kellys collegiate career has ended.The school announced Sunday that the senior suffered a torn ACL and torn lateral meniscus during the Rebels 37-27 win over Georgia Southern on Saturday. He will undergo season-ending surgery this coming week.Kelly, whose uncle and godfather is NFL Hall of Fame quarterback Jim Kelly, accounted for 249 yards of total offense and three touchdowns in Saturdays victory, but hobbled off the field in the third quarter while favoring his right knee and did not return. Redshirt freshman Jason Pellerin replaced Kelly, completing 1 of 5 passes for 19 yards and an interception. He also ran the ball four times for 29 yards.While Pellerin has been Kellys primary backup this season, completing 5 of 13 passes for 53 yards and two touchdowns with three interceptions, the Rebels signed No. 1 dual-threat quarterback prospect Shea Patterson in their 2016 recruiting class.The coaching staff was hoping to redshirt Patterson in 2016, but with Kelly out for the rest of the season, Pattersons redshirt could get lifted in time for the final three games of the regular season.Coach Hugh Freeze is expected to address his plans for the quarterback position during his Monday news conference.The loss of Kelly is a major blow to an Ole Miss team that is teetering on the edge of bowl eligibility. The Rebels (4-5, 1-4 SEC) play Saturday at No. 4 Texas A&M (7-2, 4-2 SEC), which is also awaiting the health status of starting quarterback Trevor Knight (shoulder). The Rebels need to win two games to become bowl-eligible for the fifth season in a row. Kellys absence means the Rebels will be without their No. 1 offensive weapon going forward.Kelly has accounted for an SEC-high 3,090 yards of offense this year, including a league-leading 2,758 passing yards (306.4 yards per game) and 19 passing touchdowns. Kelly is second on the team with 332 rushing yards and is tied for the team lead with five rushing scores. Kelly also has 11 turnovers.In Kellys first season as the Rebels starter, in 2015, he earned All-SEC second-team honors after breaking or tying 14 Ole Miss single-season records, including total yards (4,542), passing yards (4,042), passing touchdowns (31), touchdowns responsible for (41), and 300-yard passing games (eight). Kellys 4,542 total yards and 4,042 passing yards are both third-most in a season in SEC history, while his 41 total touchdowns are tied for seventh all time.Kelly arrived at Ole Miss in 2015 after transferring from East Mississippi Community College, wheree he went 12-0 and won the 2014 NJCAA national championship. Marvin Harrison Womens Jersey. He was rated the No. 1 juco dual-threat quarterback in the 2015 class after throwing for 3,906 yards with 47 touchdowns and eight interceptions. Kelly also rushed for 446 yards and four more scores. His 47 touchdowns tied for most in the nation and his 3,906 yards ranked second.Kellys journey to EMCC started after he was dismissed from Clemson in April 2014 for conduct detrimental to the team after being in a three-way tie for the starting QB job with Cole Stoudt and then true freshman Deshaun Watson. During the Tigers spring game, Kelly got into a verbal altercation with coaches at halftime over a decision to punt on fourth-and-short and was benched for the rest of the game.That wasnt the last time Kelly would find himself in trouble. Days after committing to Ole Miss, he was arrested for fighting bouncers and resisting arrest outside a Buffalo, New York, nightclub in December. He eventually pleaded guilty to a noncriminal charge of disorderly conduct and agreed to 50 hours of community service.I ran into some trouble in Buffalo, not thinking correctly at times, and I almost cost myself a chance at getting back to where I wanted to be, Kelly told ESPN in 2015.However, Kelly has stayed out of trouble while at Ole Miss, though he made news in early October when he went onto the field after a brawl erupted at his brothers high school football game between St. Josephs Collegiate Institute and Bishop Timon-St. Jude High School in upstate New York. The fight began after his brother, Casey Kelly, took a late hit, their mother told ESPNs Greg Ostendorf. Bishop Timon-St. Jude players were then stomping on Case and throwing haymakers, Charlene Kelly said.According to Charlene Kelly, Chad Kelly ran onto the field to make sure his brother was OK. Video shows Chad Kelly being restrained by several coaches.Kellys on-field performances helped turn Ole Miss into an SEC contender in 2015. He became the first quarterback to lead Ole Miss to five victories over top-25 teams and to wins over Alabama, Auburn and LSU in the same season. He also registered the most wins by a first-year starting quarterback at Ole Miss (10) since Jake Gibbs in 1959.Kelly was named a 2016 preseason first-team All-SEC member, while the Rebels began the year ranked No. 11, but have since fallen out of the top 25, losing three of their last four games.
