ENGLEWOOD, Colo. Custom Chelsea Jersey . - If Peyton Mannings injury was worse than he let on, his teammates sure didnt see it.In the aftermath of his poor playoff performance in the Broncos 24-13 loss to Indianapolis, Manning said the right thigh bruise he suffered Dec. 14 at San Diego lingered but wasnt bad enough to sideline him.On Monday, ESPN, citing two people it didnt name, reported that Manning played with a torn quad muscle, the severity of which he had tried to conceal.However, two people with knowledge of Mannings health told The Associated Press it was a strain, as the team had characterized it all along. They both spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the subject.They also said the tear-strain debate could be a matter of semantics because a strain occurs when a muscle is stretched too much and tears. Its also called a pulled muscle.After the game, John Fox — who parted ways with the Broncos on Monday — was asked if Manning was healthy and he said everybodys banged up at this time of year, but hes definitely healthy enough to play in the game.Manning was ambivalent about his future after the game but didnt say his health was at issue. He said he just needed time to process Denvers disappointing loss to his former team before deciding whether hell be back for an 18th season in the NFL.He did, however, dispute a report that he had injuries to both thighs, saying that would be news to me. He said he felt he could manage his right quadriceps injury, adding it felt good heading into the playoff game.Manning blamed the injury on dehydration from a stomach bug the night before the Chargers game. He missed the teams next practice, on Dec. 18, although he participated in the walkthrough that day. And he skipped the two days of practices during the teams bye week after Denver earned the No. 2 seed in the AFC playoffs. He practiced all of last week.Receiver Wes Welker said he couldnt tell if Manning was hiding the extent of his injury over the last month, and cornerback Chris Harris Jr. said he got no such indications at practice — although he acknowledged practices werent the best barometer.Practice is easy for a quarterback: you dont have to move, you dont have to run, Harris said. You probably couldnt tell that Aaron Rodgers was hurt until the game and then you could see him running with a limp. But in practice, he probably looked like it was nothing.Manning overthrew his receivers eight times Sunday and came up empty on 11 drives after leading Denver to a touchdown on its first possession. Hes never been a good scrambler — hes had minus-49 yards rushing in his three seasons in Denver — and he threw an incompletion on third-and-5 instead of taking off despite a 20-yard gap between him and any defender.Linebacker Brandon Marshall said Manning looked stronger, if anything, Sunday, perhaps due to the rest, but you knew he wasnt all the way 100 per cent. Nobody was.Backup QB Brock Osweiler told the AP that Mannings playing through the pain was a great testament to his character, his toughness, how much he loves the game, his passion for this game. He did everything he possibly could for this football team and thats what makes him a special football player.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL___Follow AP Pro Football Writer Arnie Melendrez Stapleton on Twitter: http://twitter.com/arniestapleton Blank Jersey . "Last year didnt go the way we wanted it to, but we need to look at what went well and what didnt go so well. Hopefully this year we will be better," Brendan Gallagher said after practice. This year, the Canadiens have a little more depth to work with by adding players like Daniel Briere, Dale Weise, Mike Weaver, Douglas Murray and arguably, the biggest addition to this playoff roster, Thomas Vanek, who the Canadiens were able to land at the trade deadline.

Berkman almost left the game last off-season before signing with the Texas Rangers. He then had another injury-plagued season and was limited to 73 games.SINGAPORE - Caroline Wozniacki credited her training for next months New York Marathon as a key factor in her victory over Maria Sharapova in a grueling three-set match in the WTA Finals on Tuesday.Wozniacki won 7-6 (4), 6-7 (5), 6-2 to beat Sharapova for the second-straight time, having also won in the fourth round of the U.S. Open. Tuesdays result in the round-robin match dealt a major blow to Sharapovas hopes of claiming the year-end No. 1 ranking.Wozniacki, who has always been regarded as one of the fittest players on tour, said her additional running work in preparation for the marathon had taken her stamina to a new level and also given her added belief in Tuesdays 3 hour, 15-minute match.I just feel like right now with all the training and running Ive been doing I can keep being out there and keep running, Wozniacki said. I kept thinking to myself out there in the third set, If youre going to get tired now, how are you going to get through this marathon? You better keep going.As much as she believed the training had helped her aerobic fitness, she said the marathon will be a one-time-only affair and not one that she would recommend to other players.To do it year in and year out, I dont think its possible, Wozniacki said. Our bodies get a beating already. I dont think its necessary to do this again while Im on tour.No such stamina was required in Tuesdays other match as Agnieszka Radwanska had a comfortable 6-2, 6-3 win over Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova.It was an impressive performance by the Pole, who had been beaten in straight sets the past two times she had played Kvitova. It was the fourth successive year in which the pair had faced each other in their opening matches at the WTA Finals.Sharapova had 15 double-faults, including two while serving for the first set, and 76 unforced errors. Wozniacki finished the match, which had 12 breaks of serve, with 35 unforced errors.The defeat in her opening round-robin match means Sharapova now needs to at least reach the final in Singapore and hope Serena Williams loses her two remaining group matches if she is to overtake the American and finish the season with the top ranking for the first time.Having staved off a set point against her in the 10th game, Wozniacki took the firstt set by winning the final five points of the tiebreaker. Olivier Giroud Jersey. ozniacki went up a break early in the second, but relinquished the advantage in the sixth game as she complained to the chair umpire about swirling lights which suddenly came on during the middle of a point and remained on for the rest of the game.The Dane recovered quickly after dropping the set, breaking Sharapova early in the third and then twice more to end it.Sharapova was frustrated by her error-strewn performance, blaming her mistakes rather than Wozniackis play for her two consecutive losses to the Dane.Its happened the last couple of times I played against her, Sharapova said. The chances that you have when youre serving for a set, its in your hands to finish that off.When you give those chances back, a player thats top 10 in the world and has the experience as Caroline does, youre not just going to run away with the match.The losses by Sharapova and Kvitova have thrown the White Group wide open, with Radwanskas convincing victory highlighting her title credentials.The Pole has not performed at her best in past appearances at the season-ending event, having been eliminated at the group stage in three out of four years.I feel much better than last year at the championships, Radwanska said. I havent played many matches in the past two weeks, which has helped.Ive learnt my lessons from past years about how to play at my best.The match started after 11 p.m. local time, when Kvitova said normally I am sleeping, and began as an even contest. But Radwanska managed breaks in the Czechs last two service games of the opening set, and then won the final three games of the second set to record a convincing victory.Kvitova, who won only two points on her second serve during the second set, said Radwanska did not produce anything really special but she struggled to read the pace of the court.Sometimes was so fast and so slow, so was really difficult for me to find the timing, Kvitova said. My serve was OK, but she returned a lot of balls back, which is always difficult for me, to then play rally with her.In Wednesdays matches, Williams will face Simona Halep while the other Red Group match will be Ana Ivanovic against Eugenie Bouchard of Westmount, Que.
