LONDON - Job done, Jose. Cheap Raptors Jerseys Free Shipping .In a classic diversionary tactic, Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has successfully shifted the Premier League agenda onto the campaign by referees — in his mind at least — against his players.With the conveyer belt of Premier League controversies stopping again at players who dive, few are discussing Chelseas comparative struggles on the road in the Premier League.Although its nine wins out of nine at Stamford Bridge, Sundays 1-1 stalemate at Southampton was Chelseas fourth away draw — as many as the entire 2013-14 season when Mourinhos homecoming ended in third place.Chelsea does head into the second half of the season at the Premier League summit. But the lead is flimsier than some pundits anticipated when imprudently issuing premature predictions a month ago that the Blues would run away with the title without losing — just before they did just that at Newcastle.Mourinho wont tolerate another season without a trophy. Perhaps owner Roman Abramovich will also grow restless again with the Special One.So an enemy appears useful for Mourinho to create a siege mentality at Chelsea: Its us against the world, or referees at least.What set Mourinho off this time? Referee Anthony Taylor booked Cesc Fabregas for simulation when the midfielder went down in the penalty area after being caught by Southamptons Matt Targett. It came weeks after Chelseas Diego Costa and Willian were booked for apparently diving in a win against Hull, whose manager Steve Bruce drew comparisons with the London club and Swan Lake.There is a clear campaign against Chelsea, Mourinho grumbled on Sunday, believing Taylor was influenced by the previous simulation sanctions.Expanding on Fabregas booking, Mourinho said: In other countries where I worked before, tomorrow in the sports papers it would be a front-page scandal because it is a scandal.It was very different in April 2013 when Mourinhos reign as Real Madrid coach was ending in acrimony and he openly flirted with Chelsea just before sealing his return.I know in England Im loved, the Portuguese said in Spain after another Champions League campaign ended prematurely. Im loved by the media that treats me in a fair way, criticizing me but giving me credit when I deserve it.I know Im loved by some clubs, especially one (Chelsea). And in Spain, the situation is a bit different because some people hate me. Many of you are in this room.Now the fights are being picked again in England — with referees.When its convenient he is their arch advocate, though.In August 2013 — at the start of his second spell at Chelsea — Mourinho lavished praise on English referees, people who love the game and who love to communicate following the teams UEFA Super Cup loss to Bayern Munich so as to make his case against a Swedish official seem less vindictive.Jonas Eriksson is still officiating — unlike compatriot Anders Frisk who retired after receiving death threats from Chelsea fans in 2005. Mourinho had accused the Barcelona coach of trying to influence referee Frisk during halftime of a Champions League game. Along with a touchline ban, Mourinho was accused by UEFA of being the enemy of football.Mourinho has mellowed slightly. While lambasting Taylors big mistake at Southampton, the denunciation was followed by an insistence the referee is a good guy, an honest guy.If the outcome is referees become wary now of booking Chelsea players for tumbling in the penalty area, and more likely to award penalties instead, Mourinho will undoubtedly deem his outburst a success.If only referees could defend themselves, with the lifting of the Premier League vow of silence.Perhaps it would serve a higher purpose for the referee to attend a press conference with his supervisor alongside him, former Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson wrote in his recent autobiography, which complains on the next page how he lost European matches against Mourinhos teams not because of performance of the players but because of the referee.In deploying diversionary tactics, Mourinho has learnt from the master. However, while Fergusons rants were laced with vitriol, Mourinhos outbursts seem far more calculated and entertaining.And it was his tantrum being constantly replayed on television on Monday in England, rather than a discussion of his tactics at Southampton.It may backfire on Mourinho. Despite Taylors clear mistake in penalizing Fabregas, the sympathies outside Chelsea could well be with the maligned officials — particularly in the refereeing community.___Rob Harris can be followed at www.twitter.com/RobHarris Authentic Malachi Richardson Jersey . Simon (10-3) allowed three runs on five hits and three walks in 6 1-3 innings to break a tie with the Dodgers Zack Greinke and Cardinals Adam Wainwright for the NL lead in victories.

Calgary finished atop the CFL standings with a 14-4 record and earned the right to host the West Division final at McMahon Stadium on Nov.SAN FRANCISCO -- Manager Don Mattingly hardly considers a late-July sweep in San Francisco a turning point to put his Dodgers in the drivers seat atop the NL West. Yet coming off consecutive series losses at St. Louis and Pittsburgh, Los Angeles needed some sort of spark as August approaches. The Dodgers found it in the ballpark of their biggest rival, and left the Bay Area in first place following an emphatic three-game swing. Carl Crawford hit an RBI triple to back Hyun-Jin Ryus third straight victory, and division-leading Los Angeles beat the Giants 4-3 Sunday night to establish some momentum behind their pitching and offence. "You make enough of a statement by winning three games," Mattingly said. "Obviously its something. Thats all it is at that point because you have a lot of baseball to play. Were going to see these guys again. Theyre not going anywhere." Matt Kemp singled twice and the Dodgers leave the Bay Area with a 1 1/2-game division lead after outscoring the Giants 17-4. "Getting offence for three days is kind of like when you dont get it for three days, you dont really know where its going to continue to go," Mattingly said. "Its a chance to build momentum, its a confidence builder for your club to be able to come into a tough environment and play well." Ryu (12-5) moved within two wins of his rookie total last year and improved to 4-1 in five outings at AT&T Park, where in one dominant weekend the Dodgers made quite a statement to take over the NL Wests top spot. "It was great. To come out of here with a 1 1/2-game lead, especially coming into it with a 1 1/2-game deficit, obviously best-case scenario," first baseman Adrian Gonzalez said. "After the first leg of this road trip where we lost both series, this kind of made everything great, winning a series, winning a road trip and going home on a great note." In his Giants debut, Jake Peavy threw a pair of wild pitches in the fifth as the Dodgers went ahead on Hanley Ramirezs RBI single ahead of Crawfords triple to the corner in deep right field. San Francisco suffered its first three-game sweep in the rivalry since June 24-26, 2013, at Dodger Stadium. The last Dodgers sweep at AT&T Park came July 27-29, 2012. Buster Posey hit a solo hhome run in the fifth for San Franciscos first extra-base hit since Hunter Pence doubled in the ninth inning Wednesday at Philadelphia -- the Giants first three-game stretch without an extra-base hit since May 30-June 1, 2002. Authentic Norman Powell Jersey. Ryu struck out seven in six innings and improved to 8-2 in 11 road starts. Kenley Jansen followed scoreless innings by J.P. Howell and Brian Wilson for his 30th save. Peavy (0-1) pitched a day after being traded from the Boston Red Sox to the Giants for a pair of minor league pitchers, reuniting him with former manager Bruce Bochy. Peavy pitched for Bochy and the Padres in the playoffs in 2005-06. Bochy stuck with the right-hander to get through the sixth after he allowed a leadoff walk to Juan Uribe. Peavy drew regular roars from a lively sellout crowd at AT&T Park as fans found plenty to cheer for after a frustrating few days. He allowed six hits and four runs -- three earned -- struck out five and walked two in six innings. Peavy dropped to 14-3 with a 2.28 ERA in 26 starts against Los Angeles, including a three-hitter last Aug. 25 at Dodger Stadium in which he struck out five and walked one. Second baseman Dan Uggla committed two errors, including one that helped tie it early after he scored the games first run in the bottom of the third. Ugglas fielding error leading off the top of the fourth allowed Ramirez to reach and Uribe later singled in the tying run. The Giants lost for the 19th time in their last 25 home games. "Its going to be important to put it behind us," Bochy said. "We have to regroup." NOTES: With speculation that Kemp might be traded, Mattingly says the OF has no issue playing RF and "This combination of guys, this is what we like." ... Of the Dodgers Triple-A benches-clearing brawl with the Diamondbacks affiliate on Saturday, Mattingly said the No. 1 thing is "nobodys hurt."... Former Giants closer Wilson drew cheers during pregame warmups, then boos for the beard when the Los Angeles reliever jogged out for the bottom of the eighth. ...
