FRISCO, Texas -- Alfred Morris wont be trying to prove the Redskins wrong when the Dallas running back faces his former team for the first time Sunday.The affable veteran looks forward to renewing acquaintances in Washington, including his old quarterback, and doesnt sit around wondering how a team could give up on him just two years after he was one of the NFLs most productive players over his first two seasons.I know people are like, `You say that, Morris said, anticipating the reaction in the middle of his answer. But its not cliche. This is me being me. I never had to feel like I had to prove anything. I feel like if I have to try to do that, then I wouldnt be being myself.Any other week, Morris will pull for the Washington running game, not revel in how badly it struggles, such as in the season-opening loss to Pittsburgh.And he sent Kirk Cousins a text telling him to make sure to have fun before the first game that they werent in the Redskins backfield together. Thats what he used to tell him in the locker room.Morris is also looking forward to seeing the stadium workers in Washington after forming special bonds with some of them. If he cant see them for dinner Saturday night, hell touch base before the game, just as he used to.In other words, no hard feelings, even though Morris always hoped to spend his career with one team.A lot of people think theyre bigger than the game or `That wont happen to me, Morris said.I accept what it is. They had a different plan. I wasnt a part of that. Im moving on, but I still have the opportunity to keep my dream alive and playing this game as long as I can. It happened to be with a rival team.Morris, whose numbers slipped after Jay Gruden replaced Mike Shanahan as coach, said the Cowboys were a late entry among teams pursuing him in free agency.And the fifth-year back has often said he didnt regret his choice even after Dallas chose Ezekiel Elliott fourth overall in the draft.At that time, Darren McFadden also was healthy after leading the Cowboys in rushing last season. When McFadden broke an elbow in a household accident, the early season plan became clear: Elliott starting, and Morris backing him up.The opening 20-19 loss to the New York Giants was the first time in 65 games that Morris didnt start.Alfred will handle his business like a pro, no matter what happens, Gruden said. He handled his exit here like a pro. He handled being No. 2 there like a pro. Hes going to be a pro no matter how you cut it. Thats the type of guy he is.Morris was the most efficient Dallas back in the opener with seven carries for 35 yards, a 5-yard average. Elliott averaged half that in 20 carries. But it doesnt change Morris answer about his role.Like I always say whether I have one carry or 100 carries, it doesnt matter, said Morris, who ran for nearly 3,000 yards in his first two seasons with the Redskins, making the Pro Bowl both times. I got good work, better than what some backups get, and thats OK with me.Most of Morris production in Washington came with Robert Griffin III at quarterback, particularly their rookie season together in 2012 when the Redskins beat Dallas in the regular-season finale with a playoff berth on the line, highlighted by Morris career-best 200 yards rushing.But Morris formed a bond with Cousins that endures, with their wives remaining close as well.Phenomenal teammate, Cousins said. Never made it about himself and hes a guy who Ill be a friend with for life. Ill be watching him and following his success the rest of his career.Game notes G Ron Leary (groin) was listed as a full participant in practice after being limited before the opener. ...

As the crowd erupted, Davis knocked the ball off the glass and back into his hands. With 1:14 to go in overtime, Davis sixth block also became his 17th rebound. That, along with his 32 points -- which tied a career high -- proved too much for Denver to overcome, and the Pelicans held on for their third straight victory, 111-107 on Sunday night. http://www.cheapblazersjerseys.com/?tag=cheap-c-j-mccollum-jersey .

The Three Lions kick-off their European Championship campaign on June 11 against Group B second-favourites Russia in Marseille.Ince, who played for England at Euro 96, the 1998 World Cup in France and Euro 2000, stressed the importance of avoiding defeat in the opening game of major tournaments. And he has omitted Englands captain - and all-time leading goalscorer - from his XI for the opening fixture at the Stade Veldrome, citing Rooneys recent deployment in an unfavoured position at Manchester United as the reason.Paul Inces England XI v Russia Paul Inces England starting XI v Russia Its important not to open the competition with a defeat, Ince told Sky Sports. People are going to say: do this, play Rooney or play your strongest XI, but when you go into tournament football its important to start with a point or even three.No Rooney... why?INCE SAYS: I havent put Rooney in the first XI for the game against Russia because I dont think he is ready for that yet, he is playing in midfield for Manchester United at the moment. I do, however, think he will come in later - Id like to see Rooney play up front. Ince expects England to play without fear at this summers European Championships in France Who will shoulder the attacking responsibility in Rooneys absence?INCE SAYS: Ive gone with a 4-4-2 formation with Danny Drinkwater and Eric Dier in midfield and Dele Alli in the No 10 role. Offensively, Alli would be the key man as you dont want to isolate Harry Kane.James Milner and Adam Lallana woulld support Kane but Alli has been outstanding this year for a young kid that has just come in.dddddddddddd He has taken the Premier League by storm, he carries himself with confidence and he is a top, top player. Can Spurs starlet Dele Alli transfer his fine club form to the international stage? Its strange that someone like Alli, having come from a League One club, is going to be one of the main men in the England team but thats how good the kid can be. He makes great runs forward and thats why Ive put him in the No 10 role.An overly cautious selection?INCE SAYS: Ive gone with a solid line-up because I feel Englands weaknesses are the two full-backs. Our full-backs like to go forward so much that they leave so many spaces behind. Rooney is playing in midfield for Manchester United at the moment so I don’t think he is ready to start for England. Former England captain Paul Ince By getting Dier and Drinkwater there - along with the pace of Gary Cahill and Chris Smalling - they can cover the gaps. Milner and Lallana will help to keep it tight defensively, because youve got to keep things tight.You can always nick a goal, Kane has been flying this season and Alli will push forward in support.How far can England go in the tournament?INCE SAYS: The group stage is always the nervous part of the tournament. Once you get past the group stage and it comes down to one-off games, England can go and win it all. I see no reason why England cant win it. Englands fixtures in the group stages of Euro 2016 Its going to be tough with the top teams - Germany, Spain, France on home soil - being there, but England have got the quality and a nice balance.If England can get through the group-stages, which I expect them to do, there is no reason why they can reach the semi-finals or better.Do you agree with Inces England XI?
