RIO DE JANEIRO -- Justin Rose is one round away from winning golfs first Olympic gold medal in 112 years. Yeezy Boost 350 v2 Blue Tint Pas Cher .Rose did a little shimmy when his 10-foot par putt on the final hole Saturday swirled in the back side of the cup for a 6-under 65, giving him a one-shot lead over British Open champion Henrik Stenson going into the final round -- the medal round -- at Olympic Golf Course.Its not a two-man race, even if it felt like one.Rose was at 12-under 201 and had the lead after Stenson narrowly missed a birdie putt and had to settle for a 68, capping a day in which he poked a caiman with the end of his wedge in the water to the left of the 10th hole.Marcus Fraser, the leader after the first two rounds, stumbled to a 72 and was four shots out of the lead.Its like a lot of other sports, Rose said. You work hard to get into the finals. Its about a great performance tomorrow.Rose, the U.S. Open champion three years ago at Merion, is used to playing alongside Stenson when the competition is more about flag than money. They were partners in the Ryder Cup in 2014 at Gleneagles, winning all three of their matches for the European flag.That wont be the case Sunday. It will be Britain against Sweden, with other countries still looking to break into contention.Bubba Watson kept American hopes alive with a 5-under 67 that featured his own surreal moment. Watson had a 30-foot birdie putt on the 14th hole, but when he took his putter back, a clump of mud dropped to the ground. Watson tried to stop his stroke and failed, so the ball traveled only about 6 feet.He still wound up with a 67 and was in the group six shots behind -- and three shots out of a medal -- along with Emiliano Grillo of Argentina and David Lingmerth of Sweden, both of whom shot 68. They were at 6-under 207, with Matt Kuchar and Padraig Harrington another shot behind.Rickie Fowler had the low round of the blustery day with a 64, though he remained nine shots behind.Rose was four shots out of the lead to start the second round, but not for long. He holed a 75-foot pitch for eagle from just short of the third green, where the tees were moved up to make it a 285-yard hole into the wind. Then, he hit 7-iron to 15 feet on the downwind, par-5 fifth hole and made that for another eagle. He took the lead for the first time with a 35-foot putt from off the 12th green.Stensons day was exciting because of a wedge, just not for a shot that he played with it.Walking along the edge of the water on the par-5 10th, he spotted a caiman -- a small crocodile in these parts -- and reached over to poke it with the end of his wedge.It was a little lob wedge, he said. If it was twice the size, you probably needed to go to a longer iron.He wound up making birdie on that hole, and two birdies late on the back nine kept in range of Rose.For all the talk about the stars who stayed home, this is just what golf needed in its return to the Olympics. Stenson is coming off the lowest score in major championship history when he won the British Open at Royal Troon, among the greatest final rounds played. He is No. 5 in the world, the highest-ranked player in the field.Rose is another major champion at No. 12 in the world, slowed by a back injury in the middle of his season, but excited about the Rio Games. He was part of opening ceremony and kept busy in the week leading to the golf competition, going to other sports, spending time in the gym with Britains other athletes and soaking it all in.The only thing better would be leaving with a gold medal.It would mean an awful lot, Rose said. You see what it means to the other Olympic athletes. Once a guy slips a gold medal around his neck, well all understand how important it is. Off White Yeezy 350 V2 Pas Cher .Y. -- Paul Byron and Matt Stajan scored as the Calgary Flames started a five-game road trip with a 2-1 overtime win over the Buffalo Sabres on Saturday afternoon. Yeezy Boost 350 v2 Cream White Pas Cher . "Were just throwing s--- at the wall hoping something sticks," said Tortorella about the possible line combinations for Fridays game against Columbus. The Canucks have lost five straight games and six of their last seven, leaving them in a logjam in the Pacific Division, currently sitting fifth - good for ninth in the Western Conference. http://www.pascheryeezy350v2.fr/fausse-yeezy-350-v2-lundmark.html . -- Washington Redskins tight end Fred Davis was charged Thursday with driving while intoxicated, a day after he was suspended for an NFL substance-abuse policy violation. The holidays arent the only thing just around the corner. Next week also brings a critical date on the fantasy football calendar.The trade deadline in ESPN leagues arrives Wednesday, Nov. 23, at 12 p.m. ET, roughly 24 hours before well all enjoy turkey, stuffing and football. Its your last chance to make a significant upgrade to your playoff-bound -- or playoff-hopeful -- roster, outside of free agency.That in mind, enjoy some metaphorical hors doeuvres in advance of Thanksgiving, by acquiring (those in the Buy list) or trading (Sell list) the recommended names below.BuyBen Roethlisberger, QB, Pittsburgh Steelers: Hes one of the few high-end quarterbacks who might actually be affordable via trade, mainly because dealing for him means absorbing some risk in the injury department. Roethlisberger has missed five of the Steelers past 22 regular-season games and has averaged 1.7 games missed in his dozen seasons as the teams full-time starter. Still, those willing to take chances tend to score the bargains, and Roethlisbergers Week 10 outburst was extremely encouraging in the health department, as he heads into whats one of the most favorable remaining schedules: at Cleveland, at Indianapolis, vs. the New York Giants, at Buffalo, at Cincinnati, vs. Baltimore and vs. Cleveland (its the second-most favorable using Week 11 Matchups Map data). If not for the schedule that Drew Brees has remaining -- its the most-favorable using that measure -- Roethlisberger might be my choice to be fantasys top-scoring quarterback in the final seven weeks of the season. Also consider: Philip Rivers.Lamar Miller, RB, Houston Texans: Perhaps memories of the Dolphins inexplicably conservative usage of Miller are still too fresh, but his fantasy owners might be a tad panicky learning that he has played only 45 percent of the Texans offensive snaps in their past three games combined. Injuries, however, contributed, and once those are in his rear view, hell presumably have his workhorse role restored. After all, the Texans didnt invest $14 million in guaranteed money in Miller to have him languish in a committee, especially not when their $37 million (again, guaranteed money) quarterback is struggling this much. As with Roethlisberger, making a deal for Miller is absorbing some injury risk, but again, thats the point. Miller has RB1 skill, plus one of the better playoff schedules out there. Also consider: Jonathan Stewart.Michael Thomas, WR, New Orleans Saints: As hinted above, the Saints passing game as a whole has an extremely favorable remaining schedule, but Thomas is an especially attractive target because his perceived value hasnt yet caught up with his true value. (If you dont believe that, check out his ranking relative to Brandin Cooks in some of the rest-of-year sets elsewhere.) Thomas has more catches (56) and has played more offensive snaps (552) than Cooks (51 and 540), plus he has only two fewer targets (73-75) and run only 24 fewer routes (359-383). Hes also no more likely than Cooks to draw his opponents best coverage in any remaining game, significant in that the Saints remaining opponents have been tougher on No. 1 wide receivers than the supporting cast. This is a great schedule for Brees spread-it-around tendencies. Also consider: Doug Baldwin.Dennis Pitta, TE, Baltimore Ravens: Among tight ends, hes first in routes run (316) and second in both targets (64) and receptions (46). If theres a knock on him, though, its that he has only five red zone targets, tied for 17th at the position, which helps explain how he hasnt yet caught a touchdown pass. Fortunately, Pittas remaining schedule includes a lot of games against defenses that have ceded volume in numbers to opposing tight ends, especially the Cincinnatii Bengals (53 catches, 10. Yeezy 350 V2 Zebra Pas Cher. 7 fantasy points per game, fourth-most), whom hell face twice. He has a TE1 ceiling, but since hes probably a backup on many fantasy teams, he might come at the cost of a nonstarting RB or WR. Also consider: Coby Fleener.SellAaron Rodgers, QB, Green Bay Packers: Its wise to play the quarterback matchups -- especially for smaller league -- and dealing Rodgers is more a matter of his perceived value perhaps netting a low-end RB1 or WR1. Rodgers has two significant obstacles standing in his way: Matchups with the Seattle Seahawks (Week 14) and Minnesota Vikings (Week 16), which come at inopportune times, and five of his final six matchups overall grade as below-average (at best). He hasnt looked quite as sharp this season as in the past -- though his fantasy production has been extremely good during the softest part of his schedule these past three weeks. Without much support from his backfield, hes more likely to be exposed against tighter defenses in the coming weeks. Also consider: Marcus Mariota.Robert Kelley, RB, Washington Redskins: Hes one of the weeks hottest pickups, but hes a player to flip as quickly as you can, considering whats ahead. Kelley draws the Nos. 2 (at Arizona, Week 13), 4 (vs. Carolina, Week 15), 6 (at Dallas, Week 12) and 8 (at Philadelphia, Week 14) worst matchups for a running back, using seasonal Matchups Map data, in his final seven games. Not a single one of his seven remaining matchups ranks among the 10-most favorable for the position. Kelleys numbers this season look impressive on the surface, but hes not a big-play running back and is more likely to be exposed by some of the tougher defenses out there. If your leagues trade market is valuing him as an RB2, make the deal. Also consider: Jay Ajayi.T.Y. Hilton, WR, Indianapolis Colts: Like Thomas, Donte Moncrief has played a much larger role than perceived since returning from injury. Montcrief has played more offensive snaps (120), run more routes (73) and garnered more targets (15) with as many catches (7) as Hilton (108, 69, 14 and 7) in Weeks 8-9 combined. While Hiltons hamstring injury did influence those numbers, some consideration must be given to the possibility that Moncriefs role is expanding in the Colts offense. Hiltons playoff schedule -- vs. Houston, at Minnesota, at Oakland, vs. Jacksonville -- is one of the most brutal (keep in mind that the Texans have owned him in their recent meetings), so see if you can use the fact that hes fresh off his bye week as reason to argue hes 100 percent and worthy of a top-five wide receiver trade return. A deal straight up for Miller, for example, might get it done. Also consider: Michael Crabtree.Delanie Walker, TE, Tennessee Titans: As productive as he has been of late, Walkers value probably wont get any higher than it is today. His Titans are one of the two teams with a Week 13 bye, which is simply awful for fantasy scheduling, then he returns to easily the most brutal schedule of any tight end: vs. Denver, at Kansas City, at Jacksonville, vs. Houston. All four defenses rank among the bottom 10 in terms of fantasy points per game allowed to the position, and Walker totaled 10 fantasy points in his previous matchups against the Jacksonville Jaguars and Texans this season. On raw talent, hes easily regarded a top-three tight end going forward, except that matchup quality (not to mention volume) isnt there. If you could get a high-end RB2 -- perhaps aim high for a player like the aforementioned Miller or a WR2, like Baldwin -- and have a solid backup tight end, make the deal. Also consider: Jack Doyle.
