JOHANNESBURG, South Africa -- The Russian drug-testing laboratory for Februarys Winter Olympics in Sochi faces suspension unless it significantly improves the reliability of its results by Dec. cheap nfl jerseys . 1, meaning problems for the doping controls at both major international sports events next year. The World Anti-Doping Agency provisionally suspended the Moscow Antidoping Center on Sunday, saying its operations must improve or a six-month ban on the facilitys accreditation will be imposed. The Moscow lab is due to move some of its facilities to Sochi to handle the tests at the Feb. 7-23 Winter Games. WADA has already revoked the accreditation of the Brazilian testing laboratory, forcing FIFA to fly samples before and during the World Cup in June and July to Switzerland for analysis. In response, the IOC stressed it was "confident" the Sochi lab would be in place for the games and the scrutiny on Russias anti-doping laboratory would actually improve the quality of the testing at its Winter Olympics. The IOC announced last week it would do more doping tests around the Sochi Games than any other Winter Olympics - nearly 2,500 in all. The WADA announcement threatening a suspension, comes less than three months before the start of the Sochi Games. The international anti-doping authority gave the Moscow facility a first deadline of Dec. 1 to bring in independent "quality management" experts to "allow everyone to be confident of the accuracy and reliability of results moving forward." That deadline in two weeks directly affects the Sochi Games. In its statement, WADA said there was a second deadline of April 1, 2014, when the lab must ensure that program of improvement has been "drafted, finalized, implemented and embedded." "If the two above-mentioned conditions are fully satisfied within the specified deadlines (to which no extensions will be granted), then the above referenced six month suspension of accreditation of the Moscow laboratory shall never come into effect," WADA said. WADA is not the responsible medical authority for the upcoming Olympics but said it "strongly suggests" the International Olympic Committee "consider appropriate action to ensure the complete integrity of all analysis" at the laboratory both in Moscow and the satellite facility at Sochi. The IOC gave the Russian facility its support, saying that it is "confident that all the necessary measures will be taken and the Sochi lab will be fully functioning during the Games. "The integrity of the Games-time testing program will remain unaffected by these developments, indeed it will be strengthened," an IOC statement said. WADA regularly checks that its accredited labs are working properly by sending them "blind samples," samples meant as tests to ensure the lab is giving correct findings, and not false positives or false negatives. Labs deemed non-compliant with WADAs standards can have their accreditation revoked, as has happened with the Rio de Janeiro lab that had been scheduled to test samples at next years World Cup in Brazil. FIFA will instead have to fly samples from the football showcase to an accredited lab in Lausanne, Switzerland. The Moscow lab handled drug tests for the world track and field championships in August and is also due to do the same for the Sochi games at its satellite facility. Should the Moscow lab have its WADA accreditation revoked, the facility in Sochi would likely not be able to operate, and the cost of transferring samples to another lab would likely be borne by local organizers under the host city agreement. Sochi already has the highest price tag for any Olympics, summer or winter, with an estimated cost of $50 billion. Sochi also will be the most drug-tested games in Winter Olympics history, according to the IOC. New IOC President Thomas Bach told the World Conference on Doping in Sport in Johannesburg this week that there would be a total of 2,453 tests before and during the games, including 1,269 pre-competition tests. The IOC will spend $1 million on pre-competition testing for Sochi and "many millions" on testing throughout the event, Bach said. jerseys from china .Y. -- The Buffalo Bills monthlong shuffle at quarterback is coming to an end after rookie starter EJ Manuel returned to practice Wednesday. cheap jerseys .

But the sudden death of friend and defensive line coach Richard Harris last summer made him realize it was time to call it quits. "When Richard passed last season I knew Id never play another season of professional football," Brown said as he officially announced his retirement Wednesday. "That was definitely a defining point, when we lost our coach, that I knew Id never suit up and play professional football again, just out of respect and my obligation to that great man." Harris, 63, died of a heart attack on July 26 after collapsing at Canad Inns Stadium. Browns announcement wasnt a surprise. He had said last fall that he believed 2011 was probably his final season. Expected or not, his departure still marks a major sea change for the Bombers. The 37-year-old Port Moody, B.C., native was an eight-time divisional all-star and the CFLs outstanding Canadian in 2001. Bombers general manager Joe Mack and head coach Paul LaPolice both said hell be missed. "Doug was always the consummate professional, extremely hard- working," said Mack. Brown started his pro career in the NFL before spending 11 seasons in Canada, all with Winnipeg. In those 11 seasons he missed a just 12 games. Brown leaves the team second on its all-time tackles list with 429 and is third on the all-time quarterback sack list with 52. "There was never a time when I ever questioned Dougs intensity or his willingness to try and make us a championship calibre team," said Mack. "Our only regret is we never got a chance to give Doug a Grey Cup sendoff." The Bombers lost to the B.C. Lions in last years CFL championship game. LaPolice said Brown has always been a game-channger and a dominant player. cheap nfl jerseys. "He was one of the best interior defensive linemen in the league, no matter what his nationality," he said. CFL commissioner Mark Cohon offered a video tribute. "As a fan Im going to miss watching you battle it out in the trenches, plugging the holes, sacking quarterbacks and really rallying the great Bomber defence," he said. But as commissioner, he said he would miss what Brown represented as a champion of the CFL through his actions in the community and the media. Tributes also poured in via Twitter from fans and players alike. "The best DT in CFL history retires today," tweeted Don Oramasionwu of the Edmonton Eskimos. "Lucky to have learned from a legend I my first 3 years in the league." Brown said he will continue to write for the Winnipeg Free Press and work on radio station CJOB but he will also be making guest appearances on TSNs CFL panel. He said there has been some talk of a role with the Bombers as well. "Some people say Ill miss the locker-room but it always smelled really bad in there," he said, earning a laugh. "Its cliche to say youll miss your teammates and the people you play with . . . To me the biggest thing I miss is theres a big void right now in my life in terms of my attachment to this football team." He was asked what Harris might have said had he been in the room Wednesday. "Hed just be back there chuckling, probably coming up with some chant about It used to be one more year two years ago. . . He wouldnt need a microphone thats for sure" But then Brown corrected that. "Hed have a place up here at the front with these two gentlemen with the Winnipeg football club. . . This would have been something we would have done together, for sure." ' ' '
