Worcester and England fullback Chris Pennell will miss the start of the Aviva Premiership season due to a neck injury.The 29-year-old has not travelled to the Warriors pre-season training camp in France, and has already been ruled out of the September 3 opener against Saracens.It is disappointing to lose someone of Chris ability and experience but our continued focus on squad development means we have players who can take the opportunity to step up, high performance director Nick Johnston told the clubs website.Chris is working closely with our medical department to ensure he can return to fitness as soon as possible. www.cheapjerseys forsale .net .

On Mar. 16, coming off a "fight of the year" performance at UFC 154 the previous November, St-Pierre faced Nick Diaz at UFC 158 in what would be his eighth defence of the welterweight title.

Ibaka equaled a career high with 20 rebounds, adding four blocked shots and 15 points as the Thunder smothered the Milwaukee Bucks offence in a 92-79 victory Saturday night. It has been quite a year for George McPhee. In less than 12 months, he has had a consulting role with the New York Islanders, seen his son get drafted and then became the general manager of Las Vegas, the NHLs newest franchise. Now the real work starts as McPhee looks to build a competitive team from scratch -- just as soon as he sorts through the mountain of resumes on his desk. He spoke with ESPN.com recently over the phone from his office in Las Vegas.ESPN.com: How hectic have things been since you were announced as the teams GM on July 13?George McPhee: Were trying to get a little infrastructure here in place. When I do that, then Id like to build out the amateur scouting side of the organization. That would be the first priority, and then pro scouts and then were going to have other things.ESPN.com: So is being ready for that first amateur draft the top priority?GM: Weve got a heck of a lot of work to do. The expansion draft is just a couple of days before the entry draft. Were almost doing these things simultaneously. The only reason Im trying to get the amateur staff in place right now is because there is an amateur tournament being played next month. So I wanted to get the amateur [scouts] in place first and then work on the pros and hopefully by September weve got them all in place.ESPN.com: How many resumes have you received so far?GM: Ill bet that Ive had 600-700 texts, 300-400 emails, 60-70 phone calls. Its been unreal. Whats difficult is you let people know youll get back to them when we get organized. If they havent heard from you in a week, they start texting and emailing again.ESPN.com: Do you have any NHL Vegas memories of your own?GM: My first trip was with the Vancouver Canucks?[as director of hockey operations].?Pat Quinn just wanted the team to have a break on one of our trips. I was amazed then at the Strip. At all the activity and how beautiful the buildings were and the hotels. Once we got here, we didnt see the players for two days. As a staff, we had some great dinners. We actually saw Anne Murray in concert -- Canadians watching a Canadian. I think the best experience here was actually a family vacation. The league was having GM meetings at Lake Las Vegas so I came out earlier with my wife and my first two kids. It might have been one of the best vacations weve ever had. [My kids] were at that age where you could take them to different hotels with different themes, whether it was the tigers at one place or the aquariums at another. Taking them to a magician show or taking my daughter to Mama Mia. My kids had a blast.ESPN.com: Howd your daughter like Mama Mia?GM: She loved it. She was jumping up and down in her chair and my son was sleeping.ESPN.com: Your son, Graham, was drafted by the Edmonton Oilers in the fifth round in June, just a couple of weeks before you got the Vegas job. You were thhere as a father but also as an adviser for the Islanders.dddddddddddd How was that experience?GM: The McPhees have had a very nice summer. Going to the draft with one of your own is very unique. They still feel so young to you. Then having them drafted, youre really happy for them. Im really proud of him. The message was simple: You dont want that to be the closest you ever get to the NHL. Now you get to work.ESPN.com: Was it painful watching him have to wait to hear his name?GM: You dont want them to have to wait too long. I think mentally he was prepared for it but, like all kids, theyre nervous before the draft and they just want someone to like them. Its one of those experiences Ill never forget. As a father, the whole thing is kind of a whirlwind because I was working with the Islanders and was at their table for most of the draft before I went up and sat with my son. Then a few days later, we were home and my son is already off at Boston College and I walked by his room and there is an Oilers jersey hanging from his door. Holy cow. This kid that still feels like a young boy is an NHL draft pick.ESPN.com: Making the past month even more emotional, your old coach at Bowling Green, Ron Mason, passed away barely two weeks before the draft.GM: That was a stunner. That was a real setback for a lot of people. It was just so unexpected. I just told my wife, Ive got to go, Ive got to get there [to Lansing, Michigan, for the funeral]. And Im glad I did. Thats a big loss. He was an outstanding hockey man. What was really neat about him is while you were playing for him, you were his player and the day you graduated you were his friend. He liked to have a beer with you and he was a good man.ESPN.com: What is it youll be looking for in a coach in Las Vegas?GM: We havent even started [looking] and probably wont until the new year. There are lots of coaching changes in a season, so we want to take a look at what might be there later in the year. A coach has to obviously understand the Xs and Os, but more importantly he has to be someone the players really respect. Not only as a coach but as a person. You want a guy thats a lot of things: smart, approachable, unflappable, confident, hard-working, organized, all of those things. Good with the community, good with the media. Thats the sort of thing well be looking for.ESPN.com: Have other GMs contacted you about staying away from their players in the expansion draft?GM: I called [Islanders GM] Garth Snow to say, Thanks for everything, it was a great experience and you really helped me get the other GM job. He said, Just remember that during the expansion draft. Then he said, Now that youre back to being a manager, I cant wait to see you look old again.
