dont want their medical status made public, then t Antworten

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- The New York Giants are giving linebacker Aaron Curry a second chance at making it in the NFL. The Giants on Friday signed Curry to a one-year contract, hoping the fourth overall pick in the 2009 draft can reinvent himself after showing little while playing with Seattle and Oakland in what has been a disappointing career. "Were always looking for players and we like giving guys second opportunities," general manager Jerry Reese said after the Giants finished the first session of a two-day minicamp for rookies and free agents. "Hes worked hard to get back and he worked out well for us. If he didnt work out well for us we wouldnt be fooling around with this. But he worked out for us well. He was the fourth pick in the draft a few years ago, so obviously we think he has some talent. We had him rated high back then. "Well see what happens this spring with him." New York wanted to draft a linebacker last month after it lost middle linebacker Chase Blackburn to free agency and released weakside linebacker Michael Boley. However, the Giants never found the value when they picked. Curry wasnt immediately available for comment, but he tweeted: "Excited to be a Giant!!!" Curry offers the Giants a low-risk option for a defence that was among the worst in the league last season. He can play either middle or strongside. The drawback is that he had knee problems last season and is about 10 pounds overweight at 265. The other issue is Currys NFL career overall. He hasnt done much since the Seahawks gave him a six-year, $60 million contract. He lasted little more than two seasons in Seattle before being traded to the Raiders on Oct. 12, 2011 for two draft picks. The Wake Forest product played in 13 games for the Raiders before being waived on Nov. 16. He spent all but two games in 2012 on the physically unable to perform list. Overall, he has started 39 of 48 games with 203 combined tackles, 5 1/2 sacks and four forced fumbles. "Of course, its a low risk," Reese said. "Its an opportunity for him. If he comes on and he looks like the player that he was when he was the fourth pick in the draft, its a win-win for everybody." Reese said there isnt a lot to see recently since Curry hasnt played much. "Sometimes a guy can go to a new environment and reinvent himself," he said. "Were hoping thats what happens with him." Strongside linebacker Mathias Kiwanuka is the only returning starting from last years 4-3 defence, but there have been suggestions that the Giants plan to play him more on the defensive line after losing Osi Umenyiora to free agency and releasing tackle Chris Canty. Veteran Keith Rivers was re-signed and Dan Connor was added as a free agent, but the other holdovers -- Mark Herzlich, Spencer Paysinger, Jacquian Williams -- dont have much experience. Curry was awarded the 2008 Butkus Award, presented to the nations top linebacker. He played in 51 games with 49 starts for the Demon Deacons and finished third in school history with 45 1/2 tackles for losses and ninth with 332 total tackles.

Puma Shoes Clearance Uk . -- Whether Jeremy Hill deserves a prominent role in LSUs offence this early in the season is a matter for debate. MOSCOW -- Russian President Vladimir Putin said Tuesday that therapeutic use exemptions for banned substances give an unfair advantage, and suggested athletes who use them should be excluded from major competitions.TUEs allow athletes with medical conditions to take medications that would usually be banned. Their use has been under scrutiny since a hacking group known as Fancy Bears released confidential World Anti-Doping Agency documents listing medical information for many athletes.We need to understand what to do about (TUEs), otherwise we could soon face all records and victories going only to people who are ill with, lets say, chronic illnesses, Putin said, speaking at a sports forum in Russia.Putin suggested putting restrictions on athletes with TUEs.Maybe they can be put in a special category, or their achievements, points, seconds and honors can be considered in a special way, he said.Travis Tygart, the CEO of the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency, called Putins stance laughable, as the entire world has agreed to allow athletes to use medication for documented health needs like birth control, acne, life-saving surgery or established asthma. When approved as required, Tygart said, none of the medicines gives a performance-enhancing advantage.It either shows a clear misunderstanding of the rules or its another attempt to smear innocent athletes in response to the uncovering of Russias state-sponsored doping system that gave athletes a tremendous performance advantage and corrupted the Sochi Olympic Games, Tygart said.Two independent investigations detailed state-sponsored doping inside the Russian sports program, one of which found evidence that dirty Russian urine samples at the Sochi Games had been exchanged with clean ones.At a later meeting Tuesday with sports officials, Putin said all TUEs should be made public, a move that could face significant resistance from athletes, as well as possible legal obstacles related to the confidentiality of medical records.A person should decide, does he want peoplee to know and does he want to do sport? Putin said.dddddddddddd.If athletes dont want their medical status made public, then they shouldnt be competing in high-level sport.Putin did not address WADAs allegation that the documents were released by hackers linked to Russia. International Olympic Committee President Thomas Bach said last month that he would ask the Russian authorities for help to put a stop to the hacking.The Fancy Bears group began posting medical records of Olympians online last month, with U.S. and British athletes making up a large proportion of those targeted. Only selected records have been released. It is not clear how many have been held back and for which reasons.Many of the athletes named in the files have said their medicines are necessary for their health, while others have pointed to TUEs issued as a result of a medical emergency such as a sudden collapse or anaphylactic shock. A substantial minority of the TUEs that were leaked date back several years and concern substances that were closely regulated at the time but are no longer considered potentially performance-enhancing if not abused.Tour de France winner Bradley Wiggins use of a TUE for three injections of an anti-inflammatory drug has prompted scrutiny in Britain, though he denies gaining an advantage.Only one Russian, boxer Misha Aloyan, is among the dozens of athletes whose information has been leaked. However, many more Russian athletes are believed to have used TUEs.Putin said last month that we dont support what the hackers have been doing, but what they have done cant fail to attract public attention internationally.The leaks began a month after the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, from which many Russian athletes were banned following the investigations into state-sponsored doping. The entire weightlifting team was excluded, while only one track and field athlete was allowed to compete. ' ' '
