RIO DE JANEIRO -- Brazilian show jumper Alvaro Doda de Miranda has extra motivation to succeed at the Rio de Janeiro Olympics.The Olympic Equestrian Center is on military land in Deodoro and Dodas grandfather, who served in the army, was based in the area.The house was just 50 meters from the arena here and the house is still the same, Doda said. My father grew up here and the reason that I ride is because my father was raised with horses. My grandfather wasnt cavalry but my father always loved to go to the horses, to see and to ride.So everything started here which also gives me a lot of motivation.Not that the Brazilian team needs any extra motivation.Riding in front of a passionate home crowd on Tuesday, Brazil comfortably qualified for the following days team final and every clear round was greeted with a roar by the packed arena.This is unbelievable, Doda said. Of course we have the pressure when we ride here but its a very good feeling. Its a positive pressure. You want so hard to give to the crowd a clear round, that helps a lot and gives you an extra push.Brazil, the United States, the Netherlands and Germany all qualified with no faults and will be joined by France, Canada, Sweden and Switzerland.However, defending champion Britain is out after finishing in 12th place on 13 faults. Even if an ongoing appeal is successful it would only push the team up to ninth, still outside the qualification zone.Brazil and the Netherlands will be hampered by the fact they only have three riders. Stephan de Freitas Barcha was disqualified on Tuesday, while Dutch rider Jur Vrieling was eliminated in the first qualifier on Sunday.We go with three riders but I was talking to the guys here, in Barcelona Holland won the gold medal with three riders, Doda said. Its more difficult, its not the best situation but its possible.Doda and his horse Cornetto K are a relatively new combination, having only started competing together in January.The 43-year-old Doda, who won team bronze in 1996 and 2000 on Aspen, admits the partnership has struggled at times but puts that down mainly to the fact his personal life was a mess as he was in the middle of a high-profile split from his wife, billionaire heiress Athina Onassis.Doda credits a lot of his success and that of the Brazil team to American coach George Morris, who joined in January and has been to 15 Olympic Games as rider and coach.Hes brilliant, Doda said. I know him very well. I really pushed for him to be our coach. A guy like that with all the experience, all the background he has, hes a genius, a legend. Hes the best and gives us a lot of confidence.Wholesale Padres Jerseys .Y. - New York City has been selected to host the NBA All-Star weekend in 2015, with the game played at Madison Square Garden and the slam dunk contest and other skills events held at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.

Cheap MLB Jerseys . Vancouver Whitecaps and Toronto FC failed to make the postseason while Montreal Impact fell at the first hurdle losing heavily to Houston Dynamo in the Eastern Conference Knockout Round.Urban Meyer will look across the field Saturday in Ohio Stadium to the other sideline and probably flash back 15 years to the place that launched his head coaching career.Bowling Green gave Meyer his first opportunity to be in charge of a program and he took the ball and ran with it. Now, as the 2016 season kicks off in the Horseshoe, Meyer will lead sixth-ranked Ohio State against BG in the opener for both teams (Noon ET, Big Ten Network).I love that school, said Meyer, who begins his fifth season as Ohio States head coach. When I think about Bowling Green, its one of the most tradition-rich programs in the MAC.The new season will be one of change for the Buckeyes, who return only six starters from a team that finished 12-1 and beat Notre Dame in the Fiesta Bowl in January. Gone is a dazzling array of talent that made its mark in the NFL Draft this spring.But while the turnover in personnel is significant, one thing that never changes about Ohio State football is expectations. Theres plenty of talent, thanks to Meyer and his staffs tenacious recruiting, to plug newcomers into the holes that were left by the outgoing class.Meyer sees similarities to the 2014 season when a relatively untested team stumbled early in the season and then finished with a College Football Playoff national championship. Thats not to say hes predicting another national title, but he really likes the young personnel on the roster.Im very excited to watch them play, Meyer said. This is a talented team. We have good guys. This has been a good camp. Good people to work with.Each side of the ball has one anchor to provide leadership. On offense, quarterback J.T. Barrett is everyones pick as the preseason All-Big Ten quarterback and a potential Heeisman Trophy candidate.dddddddddddd On defense, linebacker Raekwon McMillan begins his third season as a starter and will be counted upon heavily as a rock in the middle of a young defense that at hit hard by departures.As for Ohio States opponent, Bowling Green is certainly no slouch. The Falcons finished 10-3 a year ago and played in the GoDaddy Bowl.Mike Jinks is in his first year as Bowling Greens head coach after serving as Texas Tech associate head coach in 2015. He took over for Dino Babers, who left after last season for Syracuse.The Falcons are the defending Mid-American Conference champions and have won three straight MAC East Division titles. Theyre favored again to win the division in 2016.Facing a first-year head coach, particularly one who has never been a head coach at a previous college stop, presents some challenges in preparation for the Buckeyes. Meyer again recalled the 2014 season when Virginia Tech threw a foreign defensive scheme at Ohio State and pulled off an upset in Ohio Stadium.You have to expect the unexpected. ... On offense, theyre going to do what he knows and thats Texas Tech, Meyer said.Ohio State will be a heavy favorite to win, but Bowling Green wont be intimidated by the surroundings. Last year, the Falcons almost knocked off Tennessee on the road and beat Big Ten teams Maryland and Purdue.Well be ready, Jinks said.Ohio State leads the all-time series 4-0. The two Ohio teams last met in 2006, a 35-7 victory for the top-ranked Buckeyes. Ohio State is 32-1 against Mid-American Conference opponents and has won 40 consecutive games over in-state opponents.
