DAVIE, Fla. Wholesale Football Jerseys Throwback . -- On a typically steamy summer day in South Florida, first-year Miami Dolphins coach Adam Gase wore two layers of T-shirts -- short sleeves over long sleeves -- and jeans. With his first subtropical training camp about to begin, hes unfazed by the weather.Im a little disappointed, to be honest with you, said Gase, a Michigan native who began his coaching career at Louisiana State. Baton Rouge is way hotter than it is down here. So if I hear anybody complain about weather, Im going to be severely disappointed.When camp opens Friday, it will be about as grueling as the collective bargaining agreement allows. Gase said his No. 1 goal will be to test the mental fortitude of his players, all of them new to him.What are we going to do when it gets tough? Gase said Tuesday. Because its going to be tough in camp. Theres not going to be any special treatment. Were going to make it hard, and were going to see when it really gets tough whos going to rise to the top, and whos going to fall off.Gase takes that approach mindful he inherited a team perennially chasing New England in the AFC East. Miami hasnt finished above .500 since 2008 and is starting camp with a new coach for the sixth time since 2004.We need to get better, Gase said. We were 6-10 last year. Weve got a lot of work.Gase acknowledged health will determine how hard he can push. If injuries mount, hell be compelled to let up.Some players will need careful monitoring. Defensive end Cameron Wake and newly acquired running back Arian Foster are returning from Achilles tendon surgery. Second-year receiver DeVante Parker has had health issue since joining Miami. Rookie running back Kenyan Drake hurt his hamstring in June minicamp.All are expected to be on the field Friday. But rookie cornerback Xavien Howard will be absent -- hell start camp on the physically-unable-to-perform list following arthroscopic knee surgery.Howard was competing with second-year pro Tony Lippett for a starting job, and depth at cornerback is thin.Its great for Tony -- its more reps for him, Gase said. And it gives a bunch a guys a chance to step up and see who wants to make this team.Another camp priority will be for quarterback guru Gase to mesh with his new protege, Ryan Tannehill, who has had a busy summer. Tannehill became a first-time father last week, and also has been absorbing Gases playbook.The new coach is confident Tannehill has a firm grasp of the offense.He has showed me he can handle what were doing and hes ready to go, Gase said. Its going to be about the rest of the guys hanging with him.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow Steven Wine on Twitter: http://twitter.com/Steve-Wine .

Football Jerseys Throwback Outlet . LOUIS -- Lance Lynn was one of the more enthusiastic participants as the St. http://www.cheapfootballthrowback.com/ . Giroud, who wasnt in the starting lineup for two matches after allegations about his private life and a decline in form, scored twice in the first half. Tomas Rosickys chip made it 3-0 before half time at Emirates Stadium, while defender Laurent Koscielny scored an unmarked header in the second half. NEW YORK -- Coming off two 100-point seasons and their best playoff run in 23 years, the New York began this season with high hopes. Things havent been working out so well.Sixteen games into the season -- about one-fifth of the way through -- the Islanders are having trouble scoring goals and the losses are piling up.With just one win in the last seven games (1-3-3), they are just one point out of last place in the Eastern Conference and their 40 goals ranks in the middle of the pack in the conference and the league overall.I have not found the combinations to give us some offense, coach Jack Capuano said after the team was shut out for the first time this season Monday night. Its on me to find guys to play with certain guys. Our guys are well prepared for games. We have to be able to find some offense.The Islanders were booed through much of their latest loss -- 4-0 to Tampa Bay -- by the home fans looking for another strong season after finally reaching the second round of the playoffs for the first time since 1993 .I understand the frustration of the fans and frustration of the players, Capuano said. but for me, as a coach, Im behind these guys. I want them to succeed.Two months after their postseason ended last spring, the Islanders lost long-time stars Kyle Okposo, Frans Nielsen and Matt Martin on the first day of free agency , and replaced them with Andrew Ladd and Jason Chimera. The departed trio combined for 52 goals and 83 assists last season, while the two newcomers have totaled three goals and five assists so far.Capuano has shuffled the lines all season, searching for the right combinations -- especially for captain John Tavares, who spent most of the latter part of last season on the top line with Okposo and Nielsen. Ladd and Chimera began the season with Tavares. Chimera was then replaced by Josh Bailey. Ladd was then dropped down, with Shane Prince initially taking his place, but Cal Clutterbuck has been moved up there the last five games. The changes have rippled on the other lines as well.Tavares is still confident the team can turn things around.Howw many games do we got left, he said. Clearance Football Jerseys Throwback. You just keep going, keep working. You find your way out of it. Obviously we dont want to be in the spot that were in, but were not going to quit. We just got to stay positive and stay together. Therea plenty of time for improvement with 66 games remaining, but it needs to start soon. The Islanders began Tuesday only six points out of a playoff spot, but would need to jump over eight teams just to get in the Easts second wild card spot.Obviously it feels like everything is against us right now, Tavares said. Theres a long way to go at this point in the year. ... All you can do is work to sway the momentum, get some good results and try to build some momentum off that and build confidence.A strong home team the last two years, the Islanders had a chance to get off to a good start with their next game -- on Friday night against defending Stanley Cup champion Pittsburgh -- being their 12th out of the first 17 at Barclays Center. The Islanders head into that 5-4-2 on home ice. That will be followed by a three-game trip to California next week with the team still looking for its first road win after going 0-4-1 in the first five.We have to get back practicing hard, get ready to go, obviously a big game Friday night and a big road trip, defenseman Travis Hamonic said. We just have to keep pushing forward. No ones feeling sorry for us.The poor start has put Capuano on the hot seat and with the coach repeatedly taking the blame for the teams scoring troubles, the pressure will likely only build.I can only control what I can control, Capuano said when asked if he was concerned whether general manager Garth Snow might consider a coaching change. Thats not my decision. I come to the rink every day like everybody else and work extremely hard. ... As Ive said, we have to find a way -- and it falls on me -- to try to get some offense out of this team.---Follow Vin Cherwoo at www.twitter.com/VinCherwooAP ' ' '
