JACKSONVILLE, Fla. Cheap Broncos Jerseys Authentic . -- In case it wasnt clear three years ago, its obvious now: Florida State essentially played with an NFL team en route to the 2013 national championship.Nineteen of the teams 24 starters, including punter and place-kicker, are currently on NFL rosters.Five of those 19, including Tampa Bay quarterback Jameis Winston and Jacksonville cornerback Jalen Ramsey, spent the past two days sharing the same practice field. So it was a reunion of sorts for the former Seminoles.Its kind of like a dream come true, Winston said Thursday. When youre playing against guys in college, you never know if youre going to get an opportunity to play against them in the league, especially to have another practice with them.The Seminoles went 14-0 that season, culminating with a 34-31 victory against Auburn in the Rose Bowl.Winston, who completed 67 percent of his passes for 4,057 yards and 40 touchdowns as a sophomore that season, was the star. His supporting cast was somewhat overshadowed, although Ramsey, guard Cameron Erving (Cleveland) and receiver Kelvin Benjamin (Carolina) became first-round draft picks.Defensive end Mario Edwards Jr. (Oakland), defensive tackle Eddie Goldman (Chicago), safety Lamarcus Joyner (Los Angeles), defensive tackle Timmy Jernigan (Baltimore), cornerback Ronald Darby (Buffalo) and kicker Roberto Aguayo (Tampa Bay) were second-rounders.Maybe the biggest testament to Florida States talent and depth that season: Jaguars linebacker Telvin Smith, Jaguars receiver Rashad Greene and Bills running back Karlos Williams were fifth-rounders and key contributors as rookies. Same goes for fourth-round picks Devonta Freeman (Atlanta), Bryan Stork (New England) and Tre Jackson (New England).Aguayo, Smith and Greene were part of the makeshift FSU homecoming in Jacksonville.Us being here and seeing each other on different sides of the ball or on the sidelines, it just shows that hard work pays off, Smith said. All that work that we put in in college days, it transferred over to now. I love those guys. Obviously, I spent four years with them and college changes you. We grew up together so those are going to be my brothers for life.Its impossible to truly compare rosters from team to team, era to era, but theres little doubt that Florida States 2013 team belongs in the same conversation as somewhat recent heavyweights and fellow national champions Nebraska (1995), Miami (2001) and USC (2005). All three of those juggernauts had big-time talent that had success at the next level.We raised the standard, Smith said. Thats what the standard is now. Its not all about having the players. You definitely got to have the discipline. Youve got to have the will to want to do it.And then youve got to have that work ethic behind it. You put those things together and youre going to get a championship. ... We definitely had a heck of a team out there. Blessed to be on the field with a lot of those guys.And they remain close off the field, evidenced by all the hugs they shared before, during and after the two joint practices Wednesday and Thursday.Were a family, Winston said. It doesnt matter where they are, Im gonna be there for them and theyre gonna be there for me.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: twitter.com/AP-NFL Authentic David Williams Jersey . Meanwhile, there were huge victories for Sunderland and West Ham over fellow relegation rivals, leaving the battle to avoid the drop up for grabs with the bottom 11 teams separated by just six points. Eden Hazard and Fernando Torres scored second-half goals to seal a fourth straight victory for Chelsea, which climbed above Arsenal and Manchester City in the standings ahead of their games on Monday and Sunday respectively. Authentic Troy Fumagalli Jersey . Now, correct me if Im wrong but I saw one official distinctly pointing at the net indicating a good goal but after an inconclusive review they overturned the goal.  Shouldnt the ruling on the ice (good goal) stand after an inconclusive review?  Why was this overturned?  James Veaudry Pembroke, ON --  Hey Kerry, Youll get a lot of these, but why was the Montreal goal against Nashville Saturday night overturned? Eller puts the puck on net and the on ice ruling from the ref behind the net is a Montreal goal. www.cheapbroncosjerseysauthentic.com/?tag=authentic-bradley-chubb-jersey . -- Stanfords Kevin Danser knelt on one knee and hardly moved on the sideline as Michigan State celebrated its Rose Bowl victory and his Cardinal teammates made their way to the locker room. RIO DE JANEIRO -- Helicopters will circle overhead starting at 6 a.m. to spot any floating rubbish. Below, trash-collection boats receiving GPS coordinates will sweep up debris before each day of Olympic sailing kicks off in Rio de Janeiros Guanabara Bay.Andy Hunt, the head of sailings world governing body World Sailing, acknowledged to the Associated Press that Rio is difficult. He raised an unfavorable comparison with the yacht-filled New England harbor of Newport.We wouldnt be out sailing in Newport with spotting helicopters and eco-boats, he said.Hunt ran off a list of other stop-gaps to sail in Guanabara with the Olympics opening in just over four weeks: floating barriers to keep rubbish from entering the bay, using naturally-occurring microbes to break down pollutants, and hygiene briefings for sailors and staff.Over the last couple of years theyve mapped where the rubbish tends to collect, Hunt said. And a lot is based on tidal flows and wind conditions. So rubbish typically collects in certain places.Hunt said hell cancel racing -- or move to courses in the open Atlantic -- if, for instance, heavy rains flood the bay with tree branches, animal carcasses, or plastic bags washed down from the surrounding hillside slums.We will take tough decisions, Hunt said. If we go out and were not confident that a field of play can be absolutely clear, it will be moved. If there are no safe racing areas, we will just postpone racing until we can get confident.Floating rubbish is the smaller of two problems.Half of Rios sewage flows untreated into its waters, rife with unseen viruses and bacteria. A year-long, independent study by AP has shown high levels of viruses and sometimes bacteria from human sewage in the waters where hundreds of sailors will compete when the Olympics open in just over four weeks. Authentic Josey Jewell Jersey. Rio state officials have acknowledged a real cleanup of Guanabara will take 20 years -- organizers promised to do it for the Olympics.World Sailing, backed by the World Health Organization and the International Olympic Committee, says the water doesnt need to be tested for viruses. It says the bacterial levels are below what would be considered dangerous for athletes.On Sunday, the bay was hit with another problem: an oil slick turned white boats brown as crews trained for the Olympics.Television is a key reason that sailing is in Guanabara, and not a hundred miles (kilometers) away in a clean, coastal resort. Despite the dirty water, Guanabara is picturesque from a distance with Sugarloaf Mountain and the famous Christ the Redeemer statue is sure to be in the television shot.The opportunity for sailing to be at the heart of the Olympic Games is something pretty special, Hunt said. Were usually off in a venue, 100, 200 miles (kilometers) away.Hunt said the games offer tradition-bound sailing a chance to be seen by a younger, more diverse audience that the IOC wants to attract.Sailing, like all Olympic sports, is continually being evaluated for popularity by the IOC.We dont want to connect with just the normal fans of sailing, Hunt said. The Olympic Games give us the opportunity to connect with a whole range of sports fans and a broader fan base.---Stephen Wade on Twitter: twitter.com/StephenWadeAP .
