. Now, with Game 6 set for Fenway Park a Antworten

This old-timers game is going to be epic.The amount of star talent retiring from the NFL this offseason has grown into a stellar 22-man roster that might still make the playoffs as the leagues 33rd team in 2016. Hey, its not too late.We put together the list. Its a heckuva squad. Loaded with playmakers. And there are a few battles at big positions.From Megatron to Manning, every position is filled by a capable player who decided to walk away. For some, the ability to compete at the highest level dissipated. Father time prevailed. Injuries mounted.Others, however, left good, productive years on the table because the grind became too much.Whether the raw volume is a symptom of the concussion era is still unclear, but what is clear: Most of these players made enough money to quit comfortably. And good for them.Heres our team, featuring players who account for nearly 70 Pro Bowl appearances.Quarterback: Peyton ManningTop five dead or alive. From beginning to end, Mannings quarterback career couldnt have been built better in a lab.Running back: Marshawn LynchBeast Mode was instant production, leading the league in rushing touchdowns in 2013 and 2014. He probably had one more quality season left, but after nine years playing a bruising style, its understandable why Lynch walked away.Wide receiver: Calvin JohnsonThis one is still the most shocking since Megatron was considered a top-five receiver when he retired in March after nine seasons in the NFL. He was simply fed up.Wide receiver: Greg JenningsFormer Charger Malcom Floyd held this spot for a while, but Jennings was so darned good in Green Bay from 2008-10 that he instantly joined this roster after he announced his retirement earlier this week.Slot receiver: Percy HarvinBased on his immense talent, Harvins career feels strange and incomplete. He overstayed his welcome in two cities and retired at age 28 with one Pro Bowl to his name.Tight end: Heath MillerMiller finished his 11-year career with 592 receptions, good enough for second in Steelers history. He also left with a ton of street cred in Stiller Gang folklore.Offensive tackle: DBrickashaw FergusonThe former top-five pick never missed a game in 10 seasons and made three Pro Bowls. At 32, Ferguson walked away from at least one more serviceable season.Offensive line: Logan MankinsOne of the pillars of Bill Belichicks championship teams in New England, Mankins was an All-Pro and a seven-time Pro Bowler. But it was time.Offensive line: Manny RamirezRamirez played 10 years and was a consistent, if unspectacular, performer.Offensive line: Phil LoadholtLoadholt started 89 games for the Vikings before suffering a torn Achilles last preseason. The former second-round pick was a solid run blocker.Offensive tackle: Eugene MonroeMonroe never played like a No. 8 overall pick, but he was a decent tackle over seven seasons before retiring last week.Defensive end: Jared AllenAllen sits ninth all-time in sacks with 136, plus he rode a horse during his retirement video. One of the leagues true characters will be missed.Defensive tackle: B.J. RajiRaji could return to the league in 2017, but for now hes semi-retired, and it wasnt that long ago the 30-year-old was shaking his hips in State Farm commercials.Defensive tackle: Darnell DockettDockett, who retired as a Cardinal this week, would split time with Jason Hatcher, who also put in 10 years on the defensive line. These two combined for 75 sacks.Defensive end: Justin TuckTuck was a key cog in the Giants two Super Bowl teams and an exemplary leader in NFL locker rooms. He finished his career with 66.5 sacks in 11 seasons.Linebacker: Jon BeasonBeason posted 706 tackles and made three Pro Bowls in 10 seasons, and then it was time to go.Linebacker: Jerod MayoInjuries cut short what could have been a historic career as an anchor of New Englands defense. Mayo got out after eight seasons.Linebacker: A.J. TarpleyAfter retiring at age 23, Tarpley didnt leave behind much of an NFL legacy. He has eight career tackles and one sack. But we needed another linebacker, so he makes the squad.Cornerback: Charles TillmanTillman, who mans one corner for a deep all-retirement secondary, will always be known for the Peanut Punch, which helped him log a ridiculous 44 forced fumbles over his career. He also had 38 interceptions.Cornerback: Rashean MathisMathis was one of the games quality cover corners for years in Jacksonville, and he stayed healthy for most of his 13 NFL seasons.Safety: Charles WoodsonWoodson was so good and so respected that his looming retirement in 2015 felt almost like a Kobe farewell. He will be wearing a Hall of Fame blazer soon.Safety: Husain AbdullahAbdullah and fellow retiree Walter Thurmond can split time at safety. Abdullah had more production over seven NFL seasons than Thurmond did in six. Both are solid safeties who walked away early. Willis Reed Knicks Jersey . Aside from the trilogy main event title fight, there are a number of intriguing matchups in the heavyweight, welterweight and lightweight divisions. Kevin Knox Knicks Jersey . They had already blown a double-digit lead, fans were hitting the exits, and a long seven-game road trip waited at the end. http://www.knickssale.com/kids-allonzo-trier-knicks-jersey/ . Its an influence in football and a big part of the game. John Starks Knicks Jersey . Now, with Game 6 set for Fenway Park and an 8:07 p.m. ET first pitch, the Detroit Tigers face the unenviable task of having to beat the Boston Red Sox twice, on the road, to advance to the World Series. Tracy McGrady Jersey . Parker had 26 points and eight assists and San Antonio beat Toronto 112-99 Monday night. "We won that game because of Tony Parkers aggressiveness," Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said. "His juice; his aggression all night long. The NBA released its 2016-17 regular-season schedule on Thursday. As Philadelphia 76ers fans peruse their teams schedule, here are the five games they should circle on their calendar:Oct. 26: 76ers vs. Oklahoma City ThunderThe season opener is significant not only because the world is waiting to see No. 1 overall pick Ben Simmons play an NBA game, but also because it will also mark the long-awaited debuts of 2014 draft picks Joel Embiid and Dario Saric. And it will happen against?Russell Westbrook?and company.?Nov. 5: 76ers vs. Cleveland CavaliersIf the Sixers want to gauge how much theyve improved, theres no better barometer than LeBron James and the defending champion Cavaliers.DDec.dddddddddddd 16: 76ers vs. Los Angeles LakersThis will be the first matchup featuring the No. 1 and No. 2 overall draft picks -- Simmons and the Lakers Brandon Ingram.Dec. 18: 76ers vs. Brooklyn NetsNeed a win? The Nets were one of two teams (the other being Phoenix) that the Sixers defeated twice during the 2015 season.Feb. 27: 76ers vs. Golden State WarriorsAny game against a Warriors team that features the reigning two-time MVP (Stephen Curry), a former MVP (Kevin Durant) and two other All-Stars (Klay Thompson and Draymond Green) is worth noting.
