St. Louis coach Jeff Fisher claimed that every stakeholder will converge together and formulate ways in which such an incident will never happen. He continued to claim that the independent sideline observe didn’t take the matter seriously as the team’s medical staff rushed to the field to treat the quarterback on the 1:04 remaining time.

Fisher continued to argue that very few words were exchanged between the doctor and the player as they feared being penalized with a final timeout. He continued to claim that he evident the collision between Case and Tim Jurnigan and the way case rose up from the ground evident that he was okay to continue with the game.

Apparently, Cam Newton’s dancing has been very disruptive; this has brought up very many comments from the league and people from all over the world. Cam’s coach, Ron Rivera on Tuesday’s issue of NFL Total access, evaluated his divisive claim on his quarterback during the Panthers’ win over the titans. During his interview with Lindsay Rhodes, a media personality at NFL, Rivera stated that the celebration might have lasted a bit longer than expected, but he totally understood the reason why. He also added that he would have preferred it, if Cam took the ball and gave it to a much younger audience, who had come to watch them play. Through these statements, Rivera was able to at least make the world forget about how Cam ridiculed the whole of Tennessee on Sunday.

However, Rivera decided to keep his comments reserved on Cam Newton’s after celebrations in the league. Titan’s Coach Mike Mularkey, stated that the move Cam pulled off, after their win was way out of line, this came a day after he had ignored it, saying it was a no big deal. The Atlanta-based dance, known as the dab, was Cam’s way of celebration on Sunday when his NFL team scored against the Titans, this was very upsetting for Avery Williamson who was a member of the Titan team, who reproached Newton, and however, his reproach was not met well by Newton who continued dabbing again.

Avery and Newton had to be separated by the officials before they went out of hand. This was not the first time that Cam was causing chaos; he had done it before in New Orleans last season when he did the so called Superman celebration. This was met by Camera Jordan, a member of the Saints defensive pushing Newton, after which players started babbling on each other’s faces. This led to Panther’s team member, Brandon Williams been expelled when he punched Jordan on the face. Luckily, there was no fight during the dabbing issue on Sunday, as Newton ended the game by picking up the football, and then gave it to one of the Carolina fan, which was part of his tradition every time his team won.

When it comes to advertising the live odds during the sporting broadcasts, regulators in New South Wales, are looking for new ways of reining to reproduce the online sports and betting and have consequently banned the activity. This means that there will be no broadcasting of the play odds like the ones that keep shifting on the scoreboard or even the ones that assist one to guess the next goal. The ban means television will have to be adjusted or dropped altogether. Troy Grant is the NSW minister for gaming and racing and made the announcement stating that the live odds were increasing the risk of dangerous gambling which is what encouraged the customers to continue chasing losses on make impulse bets. It is undeniable how the online betting market has become more competitive and people aggressively chasing shares through promotions and this is why regulation in the industry is prudent. Estimates from the monitoring firm Ebiquity on the amount being gambled online between 2010 and 2013 was close to $48m.

Samantha Thomas is an associate professor in public health from Deakin University said the ban was positive however there are still gambling advertisements being made, company logos on jerseys and stadium sponsorship which is stunting the change. Financial counseling in Australia has reported in August that there is use of aggressive marketing tactics which includes offering credit to players already in debt and others inducement through tickets to sporting events. In a case study, there was a detailed report of how a man was offered $500 in free bets and ended up gambling the proceeds from the sale of his home. In another, there was an attempted suicide of a man owing to his gambling debts. NSW is intent on taking down these tactics in the wake of December using the current ban to expand and entice bets using “credit”, vouchers or rewards to cover all “inducements”. The state waits on the results of a federal review done into online betting which is being run by Barry O’Farrell, the former NSW premier, due on 18^th December in order to go forth with the curbing of online sports betting.

The Houston Texas have decided to do away with one of their own Ryan Mallett and decided to end his contract instantly. Mallet has been a fan of lateness for training and even games. Lately, he missed the team’s charter flight for the game with a traffic excuse which would later be claimed to be a stale excuse. He was at one time late for training and claimed that it was his clock that had broken.However, the team decided not to condone his excuses and eradicate him from the team on Tuesday.

However, his released has a backup as NFL media reporter Rand Getlin claimed that the Texans has incorporated T.J. Yates in their squad. Yates has been finding his footing in the Texans play and had been in the starting lineup for their last two preseason victories. He provides a good cover for Brian Hoyer who is out for the rest of the season.

Nonetheless, Mallett may not be missed much by the team and fans. Texans signed the former New England Patriot as a free agent last season. He only started in two games in the 2014 season and later suffered a pectoral muscle injury. On his return, he couldn’t displace Brian Hoyer in the starting lineup. He however started in his team’sunappealing loss to Kansas City in week 1.

Ironically, he was at the starting berth for the team in four occasions only and portrayed a worse start in the entire league. The team heads were fed up with him and his last blow was when he missed the team’s flight on Saturday.

According to the Houston Chronicles, Mallett was to be released over the weekend by O’Brien only for general manager Rick Smith to prevent this having in mind that the team had only Hoyer as the lone quarterback during the Sunday’s game in Miami where the team was trailing 41-0 by half time.

Mallett now is a free agent. It is yet to be enticing to see if another team will offer him a chance to redeem himself after a boring time with the Texans. Nonetheless, he will have to wait until the preseason until he acquires a job.

He started at a high note and with home fan base backing him, he led the initial set by 5-0 and the trend would continue in the second set to clinch the match in a short period.

The world number three claimed that he would have seen his confidence demise if only he would have lost the match. However, the win gave him motive to face other opponents in his upcoming games. He added that this fantastic win dispelled his bad feelings he had since being dumped out in the first stage in the Shanghai Masters. He continued to say that the win marks a possible enticing games in the tournament having in mind that he has been always outstanding in the Basel events.
