DURHAM, N.C. -- Peyton and Eli Manning listened intently to Duke coach David Cutcliffes instructions as the NFL quarterbacks worked up a sweat, briskly throwing a mix of deep and short passes at the Blue Devils indoor practice field. The Super Bowl winners still trust what their college mentor has to say. So when they needed somewhere to tune up their games before voluntary NFL workouts begin next week, they reunited with the coach theyve known for roughly two decades. "Thats why we came back here -- we come to get coached," Eli Manning said. "We thought this was a good way to come back, work on some of the mechanics, make sure everything is in check before we start working as a group and as a team." The Mannings brought some NFL teammates -- including new Denver receiver Wes Welker and New York Giants wideout Victor Cruz -- to Duke this week to fine-tune a few things and receive some guidance from their mentor. "Its an unusual relationship, one that I think we all appreciate," Cutcliffe said. "We all come out here and it really does go right back to coaching them. ... And now we can walk off the field and get in the car and become best of friends." Cutcliffe certainly goes way back with the Mannings. He was the offensive co-ordinator at Tennessee who groomed Peyton into the No. 1 overall draft pick in 1998. He took over later that year at Mississippi -- the alma mater of family patriarch Archie Manning -- and did the same thing for Eli, whom Cutcliffe says he has known since he was a boy and "was going to the theatre to see The Lion King." "Eli and I are doing a lot of the same drills that I did when I was a freshman at Tennessee in 1994," Peyton said. "You get a good drill that teaches a certain fundamental, you dont have to change it. You do the same thing over and over again, and thats what I believe in is consistency. Thats something (Cutcliffe) helps me with -- consistency and trying to stay out of bad habits." The brothers certainly have grown quite comfortable on the Duke campus since Cutcliffe was hired before the 2008 season, attending North Carolina-Duke mens basketball games over the years with him. Theyre crashing at his house for this "three-day minicamp," Peyton said. Cutcliffe welcomed in Eli to work out in 2011, and Peyton made Duke his headquarters last spring while the four-time NFL MVP and Super Bowl winner recovered from neck surgery and talked to several NFL teams before signing a free-agent deal with the Broncos. "Last year, with the sort of unique circumstances I was in, I really needed a coach to coach me in my rehab," Peyton said. "And what better guy to go to than somebody whos seen me throw more than anybody except my dad, probably." Added Eli, who led the Giants to two Super Bowl wins in five years: "I think a lot of my mechanics, a lot of my fundamentals are because of doing his drills and his coaching through the years. You kind of want to go back to the source and make sure everythings in check." Thomas Jaguaribe Bedinelli Jersey. "I think were pretty close to getting that back," Dolan said after the Rangers beat Nashville 3-0 Tuesday night. Lundqvist made 27 saves for his fourth shutout of the season, and New York ended the Predators winning streak at five games. It was an impressive performance by the Rangers, who lost two of three before tipping a close game their way in the second period.

After his second-round victory at Wimbledon on Wednesday, Federer was asked about comments by 13th-seeded Gilles Simon of France, who is on the ATP Player Council and said men should be paid more than women at tennis tournaments. "I hope it doesnt become a big issue during Wimbledon. Its obviously a debate thats out there ever since, I guess, the Slams have made equal prize money. Theres nothing you can do, anyway, about it," Federer replied. "Its just a matter of who believes what, and then that is an endless debate. So whatever you believe," he continued. Simon told reporters at Wimbledon in French that he thinks "mens tennis is ahead of womens tennis" and "men spend twice as long on court as women do at Grand Slams." He also said men "provide a more attractive show" in their matches. All four Grand Slam tournaments pay equal prize money to men and women, something Simon said he doesnt think "works in sports." In a statement released Wednesday via a WTA spokesman, the CEO of the womens tour, Stacey Allaster, said: "Tennis, including the Grand Slams, is aligned with our modern, progressive society when it comes to the principle of equality. I cant believe in this day and age that anyone can still think otherwise. This type of thinking is exactly why the WTA was founded and we will always fight for whats right." The All England Club began paying women the same as men in 2007, one year after the French Open decided to starting giving the same prize money to thhe mens and womens singles champions.dddddddddddd The other two Grand Slam tournaments, the U.S. Open and Australian Open, already had been doing that for years. When Wimbledon started paying players when the professional Open era came in 1968, womens champion Billie Jean King took home a little more than a third of what was earned by mens champion Rod Laver. "Its always been talked about, but we (have) different physiques, as well. I think we earn our money, as well," 2008 French Open champion Ana Ivanovic said after winning in three sets Wednesday. "I mean, I was out there 2 1/2 hours today." At the Grand Slam tournaments, men play best-of-five-set matches; women play best-of-three. At most other events, all matches for both genders are best-of-three. "It is tough for the guys, especially at Wimbledon, because its five sets. At all the other tournaments it should be the same," said Heather Watson, the first British woman since 2002 to reach the third round at the All England Club. "We play the same amount of sets and have to work just as hard." Simon was elected last weekend to a two-year term on the ATP Player Council. Federer was elected to a third term. One female player asked about Simons comments, 19-year-old American Sloane Stephens, said: "I dont care what he says about anything. He hit me with a ball the first time I was a ballkid. He hit me in the chest, because he lost a point and lost the set. He turned around and slammed the ball with his racket and hit me ... and Ive never spoken to him since then." ___ Follow Howard Fendrich on Twitter at http://twitter.com/HowardFendrich cheap jerseys　 wholesale jerseys　cheap jerseys　cheap nfl jerseys　wholesale jerseys ' ' '
