EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. - Eli Manning isnt giving up on the season even though the New York Giants playoffs chances are just about shot.Coming off a sixth straight loss that left the Giants with a 3-8 record with five games to play, Manning on Monday said its time for the team to start doing things right. Its time for the Giants to win a game.New York, which can no longer win the NFC East after Sunday nights 31-28 loss to the Cowboys, will get a break over the final five weeks with games against Jacksonville (1-10), Tennessee (2-9), Washington (3-8), St. Louis (4-7) and Philadelphia (8-3).All eight of the Giants losses have been to teams that currently have at least seven wins.I think everybody wants to win, Manning said. Everybody wants to get that feeling back. I have seen that these last few weeks, we havent got discouraged. It is frustrating. Everybody is disappointed today that we didnt get that win. We didnt make every play we needed to get that win and left some plays out there on the field. I think guys understand every game is important, everything you are doing is important.Manning said the Giants arent playing for next season despite the prospect that they are going to miss the playoffs for the third straight season.Right now we are playing for this year, playing for right now, the two-time Super Bowl MVP said. That is the mindset. I think you just have to understand that it is not too late to get on a hot streak and feel good about what we are doing.Giants coach Tom Coughlin said his sole focus is playing the Jaguars on Sunday.The goal is to win, to win a game, Coughlin said. Thats what weve been talking about for quite some time.The Giants had chances to win the past two weekends against San Francisco (7-4) and Dallas (8-3). Five turnovers against the Niners led to a 16-10 loss, and the failure of the defence to stop Tony Romo and the Cowboys after the Giants took a 28-24 lead with 3:00 to play cost them on Sunday night.Manning said the Giants werent very good in 2006 and finished with an 8-8 record. The next year they won the Super Bowl without making many changes in personnel.Being with the same crew for a year, two years, or three years, it is going to make you stronger and more comfortable, Manning said. We had some new guys on this squad and hopefully we will be able to stick together for a few more years and make something special. I think it can start right now. It can start at this time. I think we have made some improvement, we are doing some better things, but it is not too late to get on a hot streak, and get things rolling right now.Veteran defensive end Mathias Kiwanuka isnt interested in the Giants record.It is not about getting to a certain number, Kiwanuka said. It is not about changing or doing anything out of the ordinary. It is about playing hard and just getting wins.NOTES: Coughlin said LG Adam Snyder should be OK after sustaining a knee injury. He replaced rookie Weston Richburg in the starting lineup Sunday. ...While it wasnt perfect, Coughlin said RT Geoff Schwartz played OK in making his Giants debut. He missed the first 10 games with a foot injury.___Online: AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Cheap Jordans For Sale China .com) - Mikko Korhonen carded a 5-under 67 on Thursday to claim medalist honors at the European Tours Final Qualifying Stage tournament.

Not because it was right, but because referees werent allowed to determine it was wrong.SAN ANTONIO - Too big. Too strong. Too fast. Baylor was too much of just about everything for Creighton and Doug McDermott to handle. And because of it, the sixth-seeded Bears are rolling out of Texas toward California and the NCAA tournament Sweet 16 after an impressive 85-55 win Sunday night in the West Regional. Isaiah Austin and Canadian Brady Heslip each scored 17 points and Baylor used suffocating defence to shut down McDermott, ending the career of one of college basketballs most prolific scorers. "We did a good job making it tough on him," Bears coach Scott Drew said. McDermott, who averaged 27 points this season, finished with 15 but had just three in the first half as Baylor built a 20-point lead. McDermott ranks fifth on the NCAA career scoring list with 3,150 points. Baylor (26-11) had five players score in double figures and shot 64 per cent in one of the dominant performances of the tournament. The rest of the West bracket may want to pay attention to this one. A team that looked like a wreck six weeks ago with a 2-8 start in the Big 12 is brimming with confidence to match all that muscle in the lineup. "We take pride in people hating on us, and we love proving people wrong," Austin said. "Everybody has bought into the one goal that we have in mind and that is winning a national championship." Baylor plays No. 2 seed Wisconsin on Thursday in Anaheim. In Baylors two previous trips to the Sweet 16, it fell one game short of the Final Four. McDermott carried the Bluejays back to the round of 32 for the third year in a row, and had done it in spectacular style, leading the nation in scoring with a sublime shooting touch and uncanny knack to slither his way through defenders for layups and putback baskets. McDermott spurned the chance to turn pro after last season, and this was the year the Bluejays and their senior-laden lineup were expected to drive Creighton farther into the NCAA tournament than any Bluejays team before them. But Baylors defence gave him nothing: neither space to shoot nor even chances for his teammates to pass him the ball. And for all the talk about Creightons maturity and bonding, Baylor made the Bluejays look small and slow. "This is the worst weve played all season, and it just stinks that its the last one.dddddddddddd But that doesnt take away from all my memories here. Its tough to go out this way," McDermott said. Baylor came out blazing from long range, knocking down five 3-pointers in the first 7 minutes. Kenny Chery of Montreal made three and when Heslip, who was 0 for 6 in Fridays win over Nebraska, swished his first against Creighton, he mockingly shook the fingers on both hands as he loped back down the court. "We were just expecting it to be a fight, to be honest," said Heslip, whos from Burlington, Ont. McDermott, meanwhile, struggled to find any kind of space inside or out against Baylors zone defence and badly misfired on his first attempt, a baseline shot that missed everything. This rout was just beginning. The Bears flexed their muscle early and often with a lineup built for the rigours of the Big 12. Austin is 7-foot-1 and he teamed with 6-10 forward Cory Jefferson in the frontcourt. When Creighton missed a shot, the typical result was three Bears under the basket with no Bluejays around. Baylors bench was just as intimidating. When reserve forward Rico Gathers pushed his 6-foot-8, 270-pound frame through the lane for a layup, two Creighton defenders were powerless to stop him. By the time Baylor had built a 20-point halftime lead, McDermott had taken only three shots, made one and had two fouls. "We knew we had them on their heels," Austin said. "We wanted to step on their throat." Even when Creighton got a spark — Ethan Wragge made two 3-pointers early in the second half — Baylor simply matched basket for basket, denying any hopes of a rally. Soon it was showtime as Baylors lead kept growing. Jefferson slammed down an alley-oop dunk for a 58-34 lead with just more than 12 minutes to play. Gathers added another rim-rattler a few minutes later, his broad shoulders soaring to the basket to punctuate the night. When McDermott left the game with 2:31 to play, he hugged his father, Creighton coach Greg McDermott, before retreating to the bench and burying his face in a towel. "Im not sure it was Baylor being that good or us being that bad," Greg McDermott said. "Over the course of the season youre going to have a few clunkers. We had one at the wrong time." ' ' '
