NEW YORK, N. Jeremy Maclin Jersey .Y. - The players union says the NFL has asked for the right to immediately suspend players who are arrested for driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol. NFL Players Association executives told The Associated Press on Friday that the leagues proposal to increase penalties for DUI offences includes a provision to suspend or discipline a player before the completion of his legal due process. "They want to immediately discipline for an arrest," said George Atallah, the NFLPAs assistant executive director of external affairs. Such a policy change would also go for coaches, owners and league staff. "We prefer to discuss these issues directly with the union," NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said. Atallah also noted that progress has been made on possible testing for HGH as well as other areas of the drug program. The union historically has not been interested in focusing on one issue, but on the entire drug policy. That would make erroneous recent reports that the NFLPA was in hurry-up mode to negotiate changes that would help a specific player, such as Wes Welker. The Denver receiver was suspended Tuesday by the league for four games under the performance-enhancing drug policy. "There is no artificial deadline," Atallah said. "A collectively bargained policy we are negotiating is on behalf of all players to benefit the most possible number of players for generations to come." But both sides have held intensified talks on a variety of drug policy issues, what New York Giants long snapper and union executive committee member Zak DeOssies calls "doing our due diligence." HGH testing has been the most difficult obstacle, even though the two sides agreed in principle on it when the CBA was reached in 2011. Two plans under discussion centre around the parameters of a population study, in which the players could not appeal scientific findings to a neutral arbitrator, or not having a population study, but players have the ability to challenge the science. Both of those scenarios are being discussed, although the league did agree to the appealing process several years ago. "We are on our way to getting that neutral arbitration and this HGH testing will move forward," DeOssie said. "We want it (done) right, we are in no rush." Also being discussed is marijuana testing. The union feels the leagues threshold for a positive test of 15 nanograms per millileter is too demanding, citing the IOCs threshold of 150 ngs, 10 times as high. The NFL threshold was collectively bargained. But as NFLPA President Eric Winston noted, anyone within the vicinity of people smoking marijuana without partaking themselves could wind up testing positive at such a low number. "The (potency) level is so much greater in marijuana now, the second-hand smoke can get a positive test," Winston said. "Just a guy who is around it second hand, then to have to go into the program? "We dont want false positives, we have to move up the minimum to normal workplace standards." ___ AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Justin Tucker Jersey . As if the individual strands of grey hair or the increasing amount of joint pain werent reminders enough, the impending end of Jeters career is a slap-in-the-face indicator of a generations fleeting youth.

Thats 1,230 in total to cover the regular season. The man is Corey Sznajder, a soft-spoken 23-year-old Salisbury University grad who lives in Annapolis, Maryland and has been charting zone entries and zone exits throughout the NHL. I love big projects, he said. No kidding. At the 2013 Sloan Sports Analytics Conference, I met Eric Tulsky, who presented research on the value of controlled zone entries (short answer: about twice as valuable to enter with control of the puck rather than dumping it in) and Sznajder had charted a couple hundred games that were included in that study.If Las Vegas is to support an NHL franchise, it wont be on the backs on tourists - according to potential owner Bill Foley, who plans to bring the city its first major sports franchise. I dont want to see everyone in the stands with a Canucks jersey on, Foley said in an interview with ESPNs Scott Burnside on Thursday. Im not trying to promote the Red Wings. Foley, a former mortgage financier, added that an NHL franchise would receive help from the citys extensive number of tourists but the goal will be to attract locals to the arena. We know that were going to get great casino support, Foley told Burnside. But I want the guy that lives in Henderson (located just outside of Las Vegas), I want him to be there. The future of a potential franchise will receive a major test in the coming months with a season ticket-drive led by Foley and a possible blessing from the NHL. Foley has a two-part plan for drumming up interest from locals. The first is contacting citizens and businesses to express their formal interest in a professional hockey team and then asking those who expressed interest for a form of financial commitment to seasoon tickets. Marlon Humphrey Jersey. Foley will meet with NHL deputy commissioner Bill Daly next week to discuss and finalize plans for his ticket drive. The league endorsed a trial drive earlier this week at its annual December meetings. Foley and the Maloof family have been working on plans for a Las Vegas-based franchise over the past 15 months. He notes that though progress has been made, he and his partners have to provide proof the city could support a franchise. Weve made good progress, but the reality is that Las Vegas is an unproven market, Foley told ESPN. Foley, at the very least, has the support of The Great One. Hes a wonderful man, Wayne Gretzky told TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun. He would be a great owner if he gets a team. He loves hockey and he loves sports. He would be unreal. It would be good for hockey if he gets the team. He loves the game. Foley is nearing a lease agreement with the builders of the currently in construction $350 million venue being built by MGM Resorts International and AEG. The arena is set to hold a capacity of 20,000, though the official seating chart is yet to be completed.
