EDMONTON -- Edmonton Eskimos quarterback Mike Reilly went through a normal day of practice Wednesday and showed no signs of any residual concussion symptoms
following the nasty head shot he took from Toronto Argonaut defensive lineman
Cleyon Laing last Saturday.
Dee Milliner Jets Jersey . Reilly was knocked out the game and the team said on Sunday he had suffered a concussion. He missed
practice Tuesday but was back taking most of the reps on Wednesday. "Today was
pretty much full-go for me." the six-foot-three, 215-pound first-year Eskimo
said afterwards. "Because its non-contract every day for us (quarterbacks)
nothing changed for me than it would on a normal Day 2. (Thursday) we will
probably be a little more rigorous than a normal Day 3 for me. Well come out,
have a normal practice and then do some strenuous cardio stuff and just push
everything a little harder than normal. "As long as everything continues to go
as expected Im hopeful that Ill be cleared to play. There only a few days but
those are long days, theres still lots to do." The 3-10 Eskimos play the 5-8
Montreal Alouettes Saturday in a game they have to win to retain any realistic
playoff hopes. Reilly remained in the game for one play after the hit --
throwing a touchdown pass -- but was pulled after feeling dizziness and
confusion on the sidelines. He said Wednesday hes felt no adverse symptoms since
waking up on Sunday. "My schedule, my routine hasnt changed. The first night
after the game even went pretty smoothly. Neck was a little sore that night but
gone by the next morning. Since then theres been nothing to deal with. Meals
have been going good, sleeping is going well, meetings and picking up the ready
list and being prepared has all gone well." He admitted, however, that
concussions affect people differently and hes not out of the woods yet. "This is
a learning experience and realizing what guys go through when they get injured,"
he said. "Its not fun to be on this side of it but Im just thankful that things
have gone well so far and hopefully they will continue to be that way. "It was
disappointing not being able to practice yesterday. That was the first practice
Ive ever missed, college, high school, professional or anything." Reilly, in his
fourth CFL season, has taken a tremendous amount of punishment this season but
said it was ironic that he took the most dangerous hit when he was doing what
people have been saying he should do to protect himself. "Everybodys talked all
season about how I need to change my style of play because Im going to get hurt
and the play I get hurt on Im actually in the pocket and Im not out there
running around trying to lower my head." He watched a replay of the hit early
this week and said it was a "scary hit" but felt there was nothing he could have
done differently to avoid it. "I just feel fortunate that there hasnt been any
bad long-term symptoms to this point. But Im also not naive. I understand things
can still creep up and until Im cleared to play Im not going to breathe too
easily." Head coach Kavis Reed said while Reilly looked fine Wednesday and was
sharp with his passes, the team will monitor him closely the rest of the week.
"We still have 72 hours we can work with," he said. "There are still some
hurdles he has to cross but right now were hopeful hell be cleared to play."
Customized New York Jets Jersey . The NBA began to issue punishments last season for flopping, the art of exaggerating
contact to deceive referees into calling a foul, but only retroactively. If a
player is determined to have flopped after a postgame review, he is given a
warning for the first offence and a $5,000 fine for the second.

find a silver lining — and a sliver of hope for the Cavaliers playoff chances —
while dealing with his latest injury. The All-Star point guard will miss at
least two weeks with a strained biceps tendon, but hes hopeful his season is not
over. Irving said following shootaround Tuesday at the Cleveland Clinic Courts,
"If you could take a positive from the situation, obvioously that would be one,
that at this point, I dont have to get surgery, which is tremendous.

An MRI taken Monday revealed the string, but not a tear, which would have ended
Irvings season. Its still not a certainty hell be back, but the Cavs will rest
him for two weeks before making any decisions.
