• SAN DIEGO -- The NFL has suspended San Diego Chargers defensive tackle Garrett Brown without pay for the teams first four regular-season games for violating the leagues policy on performance-enhancing substances. Wholesale Soccer Jerseys . Brown, who signed as a free agent, will be eligible to return to the Chargers active roster on Oct. 1. The league said Thursday that Brown is eligible to participate in all preseason practices and exhibition games. General manager A.J. Smith didnt immediately return a call seeking comment. "There really is no reaction other than its a league issue," coach Norv Turner said. "The league handles those things. Everyone knows what the penalties are. And they handle it with the players." The league didnt say what substance Brown tested positive for. Wholesale NBA Jerseys .

Gio Gonzalez followed Stephen Strasburgs strong effort a night earlier by pitching 6 1-3 effective innings to carry the Nationals to a 4-2 win over the Boston Red Sox on Saturday. SEATTLE -- Golden Tate shoved a Green Bay defender out of the way, wrestled another for the ball and was awarded a disputed touchdown on the final play. But it was another 10 minutes before the game actually ended, when the Seattle Seahawks and the stunned Packers were called back on the field for the extra point. Replacement ref rage may have peaked Monday night. Just when it seemed that NFL coaches, players and fans couldnt get any angrier, along came a fiasco that trumped any of the complaints from the weekend. The Seahawks 14-12 victory featured one of the most bizarre finishes in recent memory, and was certain to reignite frustrations over the locked-out officials. "Dont ask me a question about the officials," Green Bay coach Mike McCarthy said. "Ive never seen anything like that in all my years in football." "I know its been a wild weekend in the NFL and I guess were part of it now," he said. Russell Wilson threw the 24-yard touchdown pass to Tate. The crew of replacement officials agreed that Tate caught the pass. "We both had possession of it. I dont even know the rule but I guess the tie goes to the receiver," Tate said. Asked later if he got his hands on Wilsons pass first, Tate wasnt so sure. "I think so. ... Oh, well maybe he did. But I took it from him," Tate said. Wilson scrambled from the pocket and threw to the corner of the end zone as the clock expired. Tate shoved Green Bays Sam Shields out of the way, then wrestled with M.D. Jennings for possession. It was ruled on the field as a touchdown and after a lengthy review, referee Wayne Elliott came out from under the hood and announced "the ruling on the field stands" and CenturyLink Field erupted in celebration. Seattle (2-1) won its second straight, while Green Bay (1-2) saw its streak of wins in six straight road openers snapped. Wilsons heave came at the end of a final frantic drive after Seattle had previously missed on a fourth-down attempt from the Green Bay 7 with 2 minutes left. The turnover on downs appeared to end Seattles hopes and cap an impressive second-half comeback by the Packers and Aaron Rodgers, who was sacked eight times -- all in the first half. "I was just trying to keep possession of the ball. The guy who was fighting me for it, hes strong. I was just trying to hold onto it until our guys pulled them off of me," Tate said. "I didnt know if they called touchdown, interception, incompletion. I didnt know what was going on. Couldnt hear anything and I just tried to keep fighting for the ball." Elliott told a pool reporter after the game that the play was ruled as simultaneous possession that was confirmed by the replay official. "They both possessed it," Elliott said. The Packers were far from convinced that Tate had possession. Jennings said he had the ball pinned to his chest the entire time. A handful of Packers players began venting on their Twitter accounts right after the game, posting protest messages to their followers -- many of them too profane to print. Offensive lineman T.J. Lang even challenged the NFL to "fine me and use the money to pay the regular refs." "Just watching in the back room, I think if you asked Golden Tate to take a lie detector testt and ask him did he catch that ball or did M. Wholesale Custom Jerseys. D. catch that ball, M.D. caught that," Packers wide receiver Greg Jennings said. "It was clear as day ... at least that is what my eyes saw." Seattle instantly celebrated while the Packers argued with anyone in a striped shirt. Both teams were eventually shoved to the sidelines as Tate stomped through the end zone in celebration. Following the review, Elliotts announcement sent the stadium into delirium and even more confusion ensued until the teams finally returned to the field for the extra point. "From what I understood from the officials it was a simultaneous catch. Tie goes to the runner. Good call," Seattle coach Pete Carroll said. Rodgers had quite a different opinion. "It was awful. Just look at the replay. And then
