LONDON - Former World Anti-Doping Agency chairman Dick Pound vowed Tuesday to get to the bottom of allegations of systematic doping in Russia as he leads an investigation into a case that has shaken the sport of track and field. Leonard Fournette Jersey .Were not there to whitewash anything, Pound told The Associated Press. Were there to get the facts, reach conclusions and make recommendations.WADA announced Tuesday that Pound will head a three-person independent panel that will investigate the grave accusations of widespread doping, coverups and corruption in Russia that were broadcast by German television network ARD.If all these things are true, its extremely serious for sport, for athletics, for the countries involved, Pound said in a telephone interview.Veteran Canadian sports arbitrator Richard McLaren will also serve on the commission, while a third member will be announced later. WADA said the investigation will begin next month.The panel will seek to determine if there have been any violations of the World Anti-Doping Code by athletes, coaches, doctors, trainers and WADA-accredited laboratories that could lead to sanctions against individuals or organizations.WADA said the panel will review the evidence aired by the German broadcaster as well as other information received separately by the agency.Once the investigation is concluded, if it is found that there have been violations or breaches of the rules, WADA will ensure that any individuals or organizations concerned are dealt with in an appropriate fashion under the World Anti-Doping Code, WADA President Craig Reedie said.The appointment of Pound indicates that WADA will investigate fully and without restriction.The outspoken Canadian IOC member took a tough line in his decade as WADAs first chairman from 1999-2008. He previously led the International Olympic Committees internal probe into the Salt Lake City bid scandal that resulted in the resignation or expulsion of 10 members.Its far too early for me to know whats going to happen, how fast we can do it, how much travel we may have to do, Pound said. I think you have to wait and see what evidence you get as opposed to what you may suspect.Pound said he was already familiar with past problems at the Russian doping lab. He chaired the WADA committee that made sure the lab improved its operations to avoid suspension ahead of the Winter Games in Sochi.The appointment of the WADA panel was welcomed by the International Association of Athletics Federations, whose independent ethics commission is also investigating the allegations.The IAAF takes this opportunity to reiterate its full support of the WADA investigation, IAAF President Lamine Diack said. Our primary concern must always be to protect the integrity of competition in support of the vast majority of clean athletes, and we look forward to working with WADA to this end.Earlier this week, Diacks son — Papa Massata Diack — suspended his work as a marketing consultant for the IAAF pending its investigation. IAAF treasurer and council member Valentin Balakhnichev — who heads the Russian athletics federation — relieved himself of his duties while the investigation is continuing. Both men were accused by ARD and French sports daily lEquipe of involvement in coverups.The German documentary appeared to show reigning Olympic 800-meter champion Maria Savinova admitting to using the banned steroid oxandrolone. Three-time Chicago Marathon winner Liliya Shobukhova was also reported to have paid 450,000 euros ($560,000) to avoid a doping ban so she could run at the 2012 London Olympics. Shobukhova was eventually banned for doping and she said some of the money was refunded.ARD also claimed the IAAF did not probe 150 suspicious blood samples from 2006 to 2009. The IAAF said it launched its biological passport only in 2009 and could only use the data collected earlier for target purposes.Pound dismissed comparisons to the scandal surrounding Ben Johnsons positive test after the 100 metre final at the 1988 Seoul Olympics.The Ben Johnson thing was a one off, Pound said. It wasnt a Canadian system of doping, whereas in the former East Germany and a number of the Warsaw Pact countries it was a little more organized and systematic.___Follow Stephen Wilson on Twitter: http://twitter.com/stevewilsonap Cheap Jaguars Jerseys Gear . - Roger Federer squandered a big lead and lost to No. Tre Herndon Jersey . A larger-than-life personality known for his intimidating style in the 18-yard box, Schmeichels career spanned some 20 years -- including a memorable tenure at Manchester United. http://www.cheapjaguarsjerseysonline.com/?tag=tyler-shatley-jersey-online .C. -- With a chance to start over and maybe drive in any series he wanted, Juan Pablo Montoya thought long and hard about what mattered most at this stage of his career.CLEVELAND - Brian Hoyer has had some wild work week.The Browns quarterback held off hotshot rookie Johnny Manziel again to keep his starting job and now faces a must-win situation to keep Clevelands playoff hopes alive.All he has to do is outscore Andrew Luck and the high-flying Indianapolis Colts and their No. 1-ranked offence.All he has to do is outduel Luck while missing his most consistent wide receiver, playing behind a backup centre and with two rookie running backs who have had trouble holding onto the ball.And, all Hoyer has to do is appease a divided home crowd, with thousands ready to break into John-ny, John-ny chants the moment one of his passes wobbles off target.Maybe playing for your hometown team isnt all what its cracked up to be.Still Hoyer, who has put the Browns (7-5) in position to make the playoffs for the first time since 2002, believes he and his teammates can snap out of a three-week slump.Weve done it before, he said. This is the NFL. Not every week is going to be easy, and youre going to play tough teams. Thats not something that we havent done before and something I havent done before. I have total confidence in myself and in my teammates and in our offence. We just need to get back to what we do best. You see it in games, and when were on, were on.Hoyer certainly wasnt on last week in Buffalo.After throwing his second interception — and sixth in three games — he was yanked in the fourth quarter for Manziel, who came in and led the Browns to their only touchdown in a 26-10 loss.Browns coach Mike Pettine considered switching this week to Johnny Football, but decided that Hoyer gave the Browns the better chance to beat the Colts (8-4), who can wrap up the AFC South title with a win and if Houston loses to Jacksonville.Pettines choice prevented the Browns from making yet another quarterback change. Theyve already had 20 quarterbacks since 1999, and remarkably, Hoyer (10-5) is the only one with a winning record.Colts linebacker DQwell Jackson rode Clevelands QB carousel during eight seasons with the Browns, and feels Hoyer is under appreciated.Hes a winner, Jackson said. Guys follow him. Hes a great student of the game. He understands his strengths. He moves the ball around. Im pretty sure its been a tough road for him trying to block out all the noise and just plaay football. James OShaughnessy Jersey. In my opinion, I think hes done a phenomenal job with just playing football and making the best out of his opportunity.Unless he wins, Hoyers chance could end Sunday.While much of the focus will be on Hoyer, who lost clutch wide receiver Miles Austin with a season-ending kidney injury, here are some other things to watch as the Browns host the Colts:JOHNNY PACKAGE: Manziels showing last week — 5 of 8 for 63 yards in two series — has the Browns considering using him more during games. Manziel said he took more snaps during practice, and Jackson figures No. 2 will make an appearance.I think at some point theres a good chance we could see Johnny Manziel, he said. If I were to put my offensive co-ordinator hat on, I would probably sprinkle him in a little bit just to keep us honest, just to keep us on our heels.LUCKS NUMBERS: Luck hits milestones each week, and hes on the cusp of doing it against the Browns, too. He needs five completions to reach 1,000 in his career, nine attempts to reach 500 for the third straight year, 20 completions and 81 yards passing to break Peyton Mannings NFL records for the most by a player in his first three NFL seasons (1,014 completions and 12,287 yards).WELCOME HOME: For several Colts, the trip to Cleveland is a homecoming. Jackson, return specialist Josh Cribbs, running back Trent Richardson, safety Mike Adams and Indy coach Chuck Pagano spent time with the Browns. Cribbs enjoyed a tight bond with Browns fans and was disappointed the team wouldnt re-sign him. Hed like nothing more than to take a kick or punt back all the way and celebrate with a leap into the Dawg Pound.BALL SECURITY: Fumbles have been a problem for Browns rookie backs Isaiah Crowell and Terrance West, who had the ball stripped by the Bills and returned for a game-changing TD.I let my team down, but its a big opportunity this week to redeem myself, said West. Im looking forward. Im past that point.TYING PEYTON: Colts receiver Reggie Waynes run as second-best could come to an end Sunday. Barring a surprise, the 36-year-old will tie Manning for the most games played in Colts history (208). A win would allow Wayne to tie Manning for another franchise record — most wins in Colts history (141).___AP NFL websites: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Cheap Adidas Hockey Jerseys Wholesale College Jerseys Cheap Nike Basketball Jerseys Cheap Football Jerseys Free Shipping Cheap Baseball Jerseys Cheap Jerseys Free Shipping Cheap Jerseys From China Wholesale Nike NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Wholesale Nike NBA Jerseys Cheap NHL Jerseys Authentic Cheap MLB Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Soccer Jerseys China Cheap NCAA Jerseys China Stitched NFL Jerseys Cheap Custom Jerseys China Cheap Basketball Jerseys Authentic NFL Jerseys China Cheap College Jerseys Wholesale Football Jerseys ' ' '
