Dallas hasnt ruled out the star quarterback for Sunday nights game against Philadelphia, but all signs point to Romos back injury pushing Kyle Orton into the starting role after two years of limited play as the backup. Surely Ortons name isnt the first that comes to mind for fans wanting a change after years of damaging interceptions, fumbles or, most infamously, the field goal flub when Romo dropped the snap on a kick that could have won his first playoff game in 2006. Kevin Garnett Timberwolves Jersey . It just didnt show when he hit the ice. Berra made 42 saves and Kris Russell scored at 1:32 of overtime, lifting the Calgary Flames to a 3-2 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks on Sunday night. http://www.timberwolvesgear.com/authentic-robert-covington-timberwolves-jersey/ . -- Ohio States Urban Meyer has never had any issue acclimating to the biggest stages in college football.

Dozens of photos of him still adorn walls all over the arena, including a giant one that every Heat player passes on their way to the court. And every championship banner that hangs from the rafters is there largely because of his work.For 13 years, AmericanAirlines Arena was his house.For a moment or two on Thursday night, it will be again.Wade is returning to Miami as an opponent for the first time, as the Chicago Bulls -- his new team -- visit Thursday for the only time this season. The building will be jammed, the game will air on national television and the Heat will pay tribute with a highlight video thats certain to elicit some long, loud cheering from fans who never wanted to see him leave.Itll probably be emotional for me, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said Wednesday. And then well get to competition and thats ultimately what its all about.Wades entire NBA history before July was with Miami, where he was an All-Star 12 times in 13 years. Drafted No. 5 overall in 2003, Wade wound up pairing with Shaquille ONeal to help deliver Miamis first title in 2006 and then lured LeBron James and Chris Bosh to the Heat for what became four trips to the NBA Finals -- and two more titles -- in four seasons.James left in 2014 shortly before Bosh got a $118 million contract from Miami that was negotiated by Henry Thomas, the agent Wade and Bosh shared. That deal left the Heat somewhat limited in what they could pay Wade, and almost they lost him in 2015 before striking a one-year deal for $20 million.No such agreement came last summer, and Wade left.Im not wishing nothing bad on that organization, Wade said Monday in Chicago, his comments reported by ESPN. I have nothing but love for everybody in that organization. And I want them to be successful, just as we all say, just not when they play the Bulls. But besides that I want them to be successful.The Heat put major work into the tribute videos that air when former star players return to Miami for the first time, and Wades will get the same treatment. Jaames was very emotional when he saw his tribute and Mario Chalmers -- the starting point guard on Miamis 2012 and 2013 title teams -- said he was moved by what the Heat did to commemorate his return following a trade to Memphis last year.ddddddddddddIts going to be very emotional, that I can say, Chalmers said. With me coming back, I had mixed feelings. The fans welcomed me back, everybody at the arena welcomed me back, but I still had a sour taste in my mouth from how the trade went down ... and Im pretty sure D-Wades going to feel the same way.Wade is Miamis all-time leader in virtually every major statistical category, so far ahead of everyone else on many of those lists that hes assured of being all over the team record book for probably decades to come. His 525th game in Miami comes with great anticipation; on the secondary resale market, a seat in the highest row of the arena is selling for $41 -- the same seat for a game last week went for $6.Wade has stayed in touch with many around the Heat, with the exception of team president Pat Riley. Wade wasnt sure if they will cross paths on this trip.He has remained extremely close with Udonis Haslem, with whom he shared captaincy in Miami for many years. Hes been in regular contact with Spoelstra, and continues checking in on some of his former teammates as well.Theres no bad blood between him and this organization, Haslem said. Hes had a great, great career here. Hes had so much success -- weve had so much success. For whatever reason, the time came where we separated.Wade has said many times since deciding to go play for his hometown Bulls that he will forever be appreciative of his time with the Heat and their fans. Hell want to win Thursday very badly, and for the first time in 14 years, the 20,000 fans will want to see him lose.Hell handle it fine, Spoelstra said. Hes as good as anybody Ive ever been around at compartmentalizing and knowing when to keep emotions where they need to be. ' ' '
