MEMPHIS, Tenn. Mike Quick Authentic Jersey . -- Marc Gasol announced on Twitter that he has reached a tentative agreement with the Grizzlies keeping him in Memphis. Gasol tweeted on Monday night that he "cant wait to get on the court with all my teammates!" The Memphis Grizzlies confirmed the agreement later, keeping a player general manager Chris Wallace called one of the franchises cornerstones. "Marc has been a Memphis basketball player ever since his high school days at Lausanne, and were excited for him to continue his blossoming career with the Grizzlies," Wallace said in a statement. The Commercial Appeal reported Gasol and the Grizzlies agreed on a four-year deal worth nearly US$58 million. The centre was a restricted free agent, and Grizzlies owner Michael Heisley had said they would match any offer for Gasol to keep together a team that lost to Oklahoma City in seven games in the Western Conference semifinals last spring. Gasol teamed with Zach Randolph last season to help Memphis lead the NBA in scoring in the paint at 51.5 points per game. The 26-year-old centre averaged 15 points and 11.2 rebounds in the Grizzlies playoff run, an improvement from his averages of 11.7 points and 7.0, respectively, during the regular season. Jeremy Maclin Eagles Jersey . The Scotsman was dismissed only five days after being told by the club he would remain in charge for the "foreseeable future. James Casey Jersey . The executive board of the Major League Baseball Players Association voted unanimously Tuesday to appoint Clark to replace Michael Weiner, who died Nov.DENVER -- Tim Tebow wasnt on one knee in prayer this time. He was on the ground in misery. The Detroit Lions (6-2) sacked Tebow seven times and turned his two turnovers into touchdowns as they snapped a two-game skid with a 45-10 victory over the Denver Broncos. Matthew Stafford hardly showed any ill effects from a sprained right ankle sustained a week earlier, throwing for three touchdowns before leaving with a clean jersey in the fourth quarter. "Its kind of a competition to see whos going to have a better day," Stafford said. "Theyre scoring points on defence, were trying to light up the scoreboard. Thats when were at our best." The Broncos (2-5) were at their worst as Tebow followed his Miami miracle with a dud in Denver. Cornerback Chris Houston had the fourth 100-yard interception return in team history and defensive end Cliff Avril got a sack, strip and scoop, rumbling 24 yards into the end zone with the fumbled football as part of Detroits 45-point run after the Broncos took a 3-0 lead on their first drive. "We did an excellent job getting to Tebow and speeding up his clock," Ndamukong Suh said. Lions linebacker Stephen Tulloch celebrated his sack of Tebow by joining the "Tebowing" craze, striking a prayerful pose near the prone second-year quarterback in the first half. "I figured Id get to him a couple of times this game and had an opportunity to get it in," Tulloch said. "It was a little fun, man. No disrespect to Tebow. I was just doing a little Tebowing. Its fun when you go out there and get after it like we did." Tebow started the phenomenon that went viral last week by dropping to a knee after his dazzling comeback, rallying the Broncos back from a 15-0 deficit in the final three minutes to pull out an 18-15 win. There was no let-up by the Lions, who relished in their taunts of Tebow, who has been sacked 13 times in his two starts since supplanting Kyle Orton after a 1-4 start. "Well bounce back and have a great week of practice and get ready to go try and get a win next week," Tebow said. But will he still be under centre? Broncos coach John Fox seemed to leave open the possibility of another quarterback change after this debacle. "Its too early to say. I havent even taken a shower yet, let alone look at the tape," Fox said when asked who would be his quarterback next weekend. "But well look at it and make changes where we see are needed. Weve definitely got to get better." Champ Bailey sounded the alarm in the locker-room, saying "at the end of the day, youve got to win." "People are probably going to be more patient witth him than any other quarterback," Bailey said, "but everybody in this locker room knows youve got to win games. Vinny Curry Authentic Jersey. " Tebow knew nothing of his starting status Nov. 6 against Oakland. "Im just going to get up early and go to work and try to get better tomorrow and consistently improve and be the best person-slash-quarterback for this organization," Tebow said. Tight end Tony Scheffler performed a scaled-down version of the Tebow impersonation after catching a 1-yard TD pass against his former team in the second quarter. Scheffler faked the spike, acted like he was going to kneel and put his right hand on his forehead a la Tebow, then spun around and exchanged the "Mile High Salute" with teammate Calvin Johnson instead. "Its one of those things where youre so amped up, especially being back kind of where it all started for me," Scheffler said. "I was amped up just doing whatever came into my head. It was fun." Bailey wasnt bothered a bit by the Lions frivolities. "I hate when people cry about showing them up," Bailey said. "So what? Stop em. Plain and simple." Stafford completed 21 of 30 passes for 267 yards and three touchdowns, including a 56-yarder to Johnson, who joined Randy Moss as the only wide receivers since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger to catch 11 TD passes in his teams first eight games. Stafford also threw a 41-yard touchdown pass to Titus Young for Detroits first score. After Eric Decker failed to get both feet down on a 21-yard toss into the end zone on Denvers first drive, the Broncos settled for a field goal. Denver gained just 32 yards on its next 22 snaps before trudging into the locker room down 24-3. Deckers 14-yard touchdown catch in the fourth quarter ended Detroits 45-0 run. By then, even most of the fans decked out in No. 15 Tebow jerseys were streaming through the exits. Tebow finished 18 for 39 for 172 yards. "Hes a young player, hes got a lot to learn," Tulloch said. "Hes a winner. He finds a way to win." The Lions scored their most points on the road since a 45-point outburst at San Francisco on Oct. 29, 1967. "He just needs to clean up some things in his pass game," Tulloch said. "That takes time. We had a good game plan. Youve got to realize weve got a good front seven here. So, for his second start this season coming against us, its kind of rough for him." Notes: Suh will meet with the NFL on Tuesday to talk about all the penalties hes been called for this season. ...
