The Vancouver Whitecaps added two players to their ranks on Monday as they prepare for the 2014 MLS season. The team announced the acquisition of MLS All-Star right back Steven Beitashour from the San Jose Earthquakes in exchange for allocation money. "Steven is arguably the best right back in the league," said Whitecaps head coach Carl Robinson. "He is fantastic on the defensive side of the ball and his ability to join the attack will make him a great addition to our club." In 89 MLS appearances with the Earthquakes, the San Jose native has scored two goals and recorded 16 assists over the last three seasons.Beitashour has also made three appearances with the Iranian national team. "Im very excited about this new opportunity," said Beitashour. "Whitecaps FC are an excellent club with fantastic supporters and a great stadium." The Whitecaps also signed midfielder Mehdi Ballouchy, acquiring his rights with the seventh pick in Stage 2 of the 2013 MLS Re-Entry Draft. "Im excited to be in Vancouver," said Ballouchy. "This is a great club, with a fantastic atmosphere, and terrific players and staff. Robbo (Whitecaps head coach Carl Robinson) is someone I think really highly of. He knows the game very well and Im excited to be in his plans." The 30-year-old midfielder has previously made 185 regular season MLS appearances with four teams, including the San Jose Earthquakes, New York Red Bulls, Colorado Rapids and Real Salt Lake. Over his career, he has produced 13 goals and 24 assists, since joining the league as the second overall pick of the 2006 MLS SuperDraft by Real Salt Lake. Terrance Ferguson Jersey .

LONDON -- Tim Sherwoods first game in full charge of Tottenham ended in disappointment as Emmanuel Adebayors error gifted West Bromwich a 1-1 draw in the English Premier League on Thursday. Within two minutes of Christian Eriksen putting Tottenham ahead from a free kick, Adebayor miscued Morgan Amalfitanos cross and Jonas Olsson tapped in easily from close range to equalize in the 38th minute. The draw saw Tottenham drop to eighth place, while West Brom was 15th. "We should have played better and we are capable of playing better," Sherwood said. "I thought we could be a bit more adventurous around the penalty box and show a little more guile." Sherwood was hired on an 18-month contract to replace Andre Villas-Boas on Monday after two games in temporary charge, including a 3-2 victory at Southampton in the league last weekend. "Its a gamble because Ive never done it before," the 44-year-old Sherwood said. "Butt there are a lot of good managers who had never done it before and become a success.dddddddddddd I was never a professional footballer until I stepped on to the field." The fact that he only has a contract until the end of next season has prompted suggestions that Sherwood is keeping the seat warm for someone with more experience. "I regard (that) as an insult, but it is only an insult if I go and win all the games," Sherwood said. "What can we do? If we win all the games and someone else comes in and keeps it and brings someone else in after Ive won the league then Im going to Real Madrid," he added with a smile. West Brom is still searching for a replacement for Steve Clarke, who was fired last month. Keith Downing is in temporary charge. "I hope (an appointment) is close for the players sake," said Downing, who will stay in London with his players ahead of Saturdays game against West Ham.

CLEVELAND - Josh Gordons troubles have deepened. He may be out of chances — and time.The wide receiver for the Browns has failed yet another drug test, a person familiar with the situation told The Associated Press on Sunday. Gordon, who has twice been suspended by the NFL for drug violations, could be banned for one year, said the person who spoke on condition of anonymity because of the confidentiality of the testing.ESPN, citing anonymous sources, first reported Gordons failed test.Clevelands patience with Gordon has been pushed to its limits.Clearly we are very disappointed to hear the latest report regarding Josh, a Browns spokesman said Sunday in a release. At this point, due to the confidential nature of the NFLs substance-abuse policy, we have not been made aware by the league of a failed test. We are in the process of gathering more information and will provide further comment at the appropriate time.Agent Drew Rosenhaus said he could not comment on his clients situation. NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy declined comment.I keep in touch with Josh a lot, Browns cornerback Joe Haden said Sunday night at the Pro Bowl in Glendale, Arizona. Hes actually renting my spot right now back in Cleveland. But I dont know about that. Ill find out about that in a little bit.I dont really know what the situation is, but Im going to figure it out.Gordons latest misstep could lead to the team releasing the talented 23-year-old.A Pro Bowl selection in 2013, he was suspended 10 games last season because he tested positive for marijuana. He returned for five games but failed to deliver the spark the Browns had hoped. He was then suspended by the Browns for violating team rules before the Dec. 28 season finale at Baltimore.Gordon had missed the teams walk-through the previous day, and following the season coach Mike Pettine revealed that Gordon had been guilty of multiple violations during the season.Gordon missed the first two games in 2013 but still led the league with 1,646 yards receiving and emerged as the one of the leagues top playmakers.Last year, he received a one-year suspension that was reduced to 10 games after the league and Players Association revised its drug policies.A second-round pick in the 2012 supplemental draft, Gordon signed a four-year contract worth $5.3 million as a rookie. He figured to cash in with a bigger contract following his monster 13 season, but Gordons legal issues — he was arrested for drunken driving during his suspension last season — have clouded a bright future.Gordon failed several drug tests while in college, but the Browns couldnt ignore his talent and gave up a second-round pick to select him three years ago. It seemed like an ingenious move when he was shredding defensive backfields, but now Gordons days as a pro could be over.___AP Sports Writer Rob Maaddi and AP freelance writer Mike Cranston contributed to this report.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Tony Parker Spurs Jersey .

The veteran, who is expected to be instrumental in the Seahawks plan to stop All-World New England tight end Rob Gronkowski, fell on the penultimate repetition of Fridays session and exited the practice with his left knee wrapped. Chancellor was listed as probable on the injury report and coach Pete Carroll expressed optimism after Saturdays walk-through that the Pro Bowl selection would be fine by kickoff. He looked pretty good today, Carroll said. We will make sure we test him in pregame, but he remarkably looked great today, and so thats all we have to go on. The Seahawks completed their Super Bowl preparations on Saturday afternoon with a light walk-through inside the Arizona Statee football practice bubble for the third-straight day because of the uncharacteristic rainfall in the Phoenix area.dddddddddddd Everything is done, Carroll said. The hay isnt in the barn ever around here, but everything is done. Seattles walk-through lasted 47 minutes with most players wearing sweats and baseball caps while enigmatic running back Marshawn Lynch decided to wear slippers. A pool report indicated Chancellor looked comfortable while tossing footballs with wide receiver Doug Baldwin then cornerback Richard Sherman on the sideline. The Patriots, meanwhile, skipped their Saturday walk-through but received some good news of their own on the injury front when starting center Bryan Stork, who is dealing with a balky right knee that caused him to miss the AFC Championship Game, was upgraded from questionable to probable for Sundays game.
