LANDOVER, Md. -- It appears the Minnesota Vikings search for help on the offensive line will continue.The Vikings lost left tackle Jake Long on Sunday to a left Achilles injury on their second-to-last offensive play during their 26-20 loss to the Washington Redskins, and coach Mike Zimmer said after the game he believes the injury will be season-ending.If Long is done for the season, it would be the latest blow in a career that has been full of devastating injuries for the former No. 1 overall pick. The Vikings signed Long in October after hed recovered from two torn ACLs, and the team made the 31-year-old its starting left tackle on Oct. 31. Long was in only his fourth game with the Vikings on Sunday when he was injured again.We were in St. Louis together, and obviously both went through some injuries there, quarterback Sam Bradford said. I know how difficult it is, and obviously, he was excited just to be back. For him to get injured today, it was really tough.Long was carted off the field during the Vikings final drive, and he was on crutches in the Vikings locker room after the game. He declined an interview request in the locker room.With Long out, the Vikings put Jeremiah Sirles at left tackle, keeping T.J. Clemmings on the right side at the end of the game. The team has been sorting through options since losing left tackle Matt Kalil to a torn hip labrum in September, and will continue to look for a solution. Left guard Alex Boone, who has played tackle in the NFL before, sounded open to the possibility of making that move.Who cares? Im ready to roll, he said. Me and [offensive line coach] Tony [Sparano] are going to have a conversation probably tonight or tomorrow about what were going to do, but well get it figured out. Im not worried.That conversation has already taken place, according to a league source and Boone has said hes willing to play tackle if the Vikings need him to make the move. The Vikings will consider their options this week. Reggie White Womens Jersey . Oaklands loss to Seattle clinched the ALs best record for the Red Sox with one day to spare in the regular season.

High celebrations are afoot at Cambridge this weekend to mark the 150th anniversary of Fenners. The university will play one-day matches against an XI raised by Frank Fenner, great-great nephew of Francis Philip Fenner, on Saturday and against MCC, the first opponents in 1848, on Sunday.Roger Knight, secretary of MCC, will lead a side including the great Majid Khan, Russell Cake and Paul Parker. Derek Randall, the university coach, will have Derek Pringle, Nick Cook and some of the best of the Millfield boys coached by Frank Fenner during his 10 years in charge of cricket at the school. F P Fenner, who had a tobacco and cigar business in Cambridge and was a playing contemporary of Fuller Pilch and Alfred Mynn, laid out and rented his matchless sward at the request of the university cricketers, who wanted to get away from the hoi-polloi of Parkers Piece. It has been the most fruitful nursery of talent ever since, with the Oxford Parks not too far behind.The intention of the England Cricket Board to facilitate centres of excellence at anything up to six universities, with subsequent attachment to counties, within the next few years has important implications for all young cricketers. John Carr, the Boards cricket operatiions manager, visualises Oxford and Cambridge entertaining the counties as usual, meanwhile, with the possibility of Durham University also doing so if fixture patterns permit.ddddddddddddThere are few first-class cricketers or writers who have the privilege of recording the game for whom the name Fenners does not provoke nostalgic recollection: Bradman on a fresh May morning bowled for a duck by Jack Davies, sleeves flapping, with an off-break that didnt and his walk back with a half-smile amidst a disappointed hush: an imperial 185 by Ted Dexter, 105 of them before lunch, against Lancashire, the evidence of which fuelled my criticism of his omission from MCCs selection for Australia a year later: a mere 30 or so by Michael Bushby against Ray Lindwall which evoked high praise from the Australians.Such pictures come readily to my mind along with - a sharp descent in quality - my one appearance there for Middlesex, 12 and 26, the first innings abbreviated by a monstrous lbw decision by the elderly university umpire which, of course, I accepted without the very faintest suggestion of dissent.
