It appears the Calgary Stampeders will make a quarterback change and start Drew Tate in place of Henry Burris in their Week 17 home game against the Saskatchewan Roughriders. cheapjerseyswholesalenfl . Tate took the majority of the first team reps in practice on Monday and head coach Jon Hufnagel confirmed that Tate will most likely get the start Friday night. "When given opportunities to play, Drew has been productive and I believe hell give us an excellent chance for success on Friday," said Hufnagel. "By no means have I given up on Henry (Burris), but I want him to have this time to regroup and rest both emotionally and physically." Hufnagel didnt place the teams recent struggles solely on Burris but he did say there has been a drop-off in the veteran quarterbacks play from the first half of the season. "His play over the last seven games has not been as good as the first eight games," the coach said. "But you could say the exact same thing about our entire team." "We have not played well enough collectively to win games." Tate, who replaced Burris midway through the Stamps Week 16 loss to the Toronto Argonauts, said hell be up for the challenge. "Ive been ready for a while," said Tate, who went 19-28 for 263 yards and two touchdowns after spelling Burris in the second quarter against the Argos. "Now its about getting the game plan in and executing it the way it should be." As for Burris, the reigning Most Outstanding Player didnt hide his disappointment with the decision, but said that hell support Tate and do whatever it takes to help the team win. "For any guy playing out there, its never an easy thing to take," said Burris. "The decision is what it is." "Im going to support him – hes a good friend of mine and hopefully he does a great job. Thats pretty much what my role is now, of course Im bitter about it, but its just how it is. When youre used to playing, you want to be in there. Everybody understands that but right now Im not in that position so Im going to support my team and make sure we do what we can to get wins." http://www.cheapjerseyswholesalenfl.us/cheapseahawksjerseysfromchina.html .ca. Hi Kerry, I am sure you will get a ton of emails on this one. Last night, the Kings went up 2-1 on the Sharks around eight minutes remaining.cheapjerseyswholesalenfl.us/cheapseahawksjerseysfromchina.html .C. -- The Edmonton Oilers used a late-power-play goal to get a hard-fought road victory.MELBOURNE, Australia - Vancouvers Vasek Pospisil withdrew from the Australian Open on Thursday due to a lingering back injury as fellow Canadian Milos Raonic reached the third round. Raonic, seeded 11th, won his match after it was interrupted by rain in the second set. He defeated Victor Hanescu of Romania 7-6 (9), 6-4, 6-4 and will next face Grigor Dimitrov of Bulgaria, who defeated Lu Yen-Hsun of Taiwan, 6-3, 6-3, 7-6 (11). Pospisil, the No. 28 seed, pulled out during a doubles match a day before his scheduled third-round singles match against Stanisials Wawrinka of Switzerland. Pospisil, 23, and Austrian partner Julien Knowle were losing 1-2 to an Australian duo in the first round of their match when he withdrew after being told by doctors he risked compromising his season if he continued. He will return to Vancouver on Friday to start rehab in hopes of playing in the Davis Cup in Tokyo in two weeks. Pospisil called it an unfortunate and disappointing injury. "Im really disappointed to be pulling out. Its my first third round in a Grand Slam. I was excited to do my best and take the opportunity, but unfortunately not able to do so at this time." "Its nothing too serious right now, but theres significant risk if I were to play on it that I could do some serious damage, Popisil added. "I dont want to jeopardize the rest of my season in any way. So it was just the smart move really to pull out, and be safe with my body and try and get reeady hopefully in time for Davis Cup. cheapjerseyswholesalenfl.us/. quot; Pospisil first felt the problem in a semi-final against Wawrinka this month in Chennai, India and withdrew in the second set. He also withdrew from a tournament last week in Sydney. Pospisil bounced back on Wednesday, however, to earn a 3-6, 7-6 (6), 7-6 (9), 6-1 victory over Australian Matthew Ebden. "Theres nothing thats really wrong with it (the back) right now," stressed Pospisil. "Its just more preventive, Im supposed to keep off it for a little while." Raonic of Thornhill, Ont., began his match in the evening after tournament officials had halted play on all courts except the covered ones due to a temperature of more than 43 C on the third day of a record heat wave. Raonic, 23, is into the Melbourne third round for a fourth consecutive year. No. 76 Hanescu had defeated Raonic in the first round of the Rogers Cup in Toronto in 2010 but lost their next meeting in Chennai at the start of 2012. Raonic found himself in a fight early on with Hanescu as the pair each held onto serve in a set which eventually went into a tiebreak. The Canadian saved a Romanian set point but needed three of his own to earn the set after 56 minutes. In the second set, Raonic went up an early break and was in control when the weather moved in. He returned to take the set, stayed in command in the third and posted the victory in two hours, 19 minutes with 27 aces on his fourth match point. ' ' '
