VANCOUVER —The B. Reggie Wayne Jersey .C. Lions released veteran quarterback Jarious Jackson on Wednesday. The move comes less than a year after Jackson signed a two-year deal with the Lions that was reportedly worth $130,000 annually, with incentives. The six-foot-one, 232-pound Jackson saw limited duty in 2011 behind Travis Lulay, the CFLs outstanding player. Jackson attempted just 39 passes during the regular season, completing 18 for 263 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions. “Thx to Jarious for all his help and advice over the last couple of years, always a great teammate! 1st-class, team-first guy,” Lulay tweeted. Tailback Andrew Harris echoed those sentiments. “J. Jackson was a huge player-mentor to me! Very disappointed to see him go.. Its all part of the business tho. All the best J.J!,” he wrote on his Twitter account. Jackson, who played his college football at Notre Dame, joined the Lions in 2004 as a practice-roster player. He became B.C.s starter during the 2007 season when Dave Dickenson and Buck Pierce were both out with injuries. Jackson posted a 9-2 record and completed 167-of-304 passes for 2,553 yards with 18 touchdowns and 10 interceptions over that span. He re-signed with B.C. following the 2007 campaign but began the 08 campaign as Pierces backup. Over his eight-year stint with B.C., Jackson earned two Grey Cup rings (2006, 2011). He finishes his Lions tenure having completed 499-of-919 passes for 7,032 yards with 51 touchdowns and 35 interceptions. The 34-year-old native of Tupelo, Miss., also ran for 1,048 yards and eight touchdowns but also surrendered 20 fumbles. Prior to signing with B.C., Jackson spent four seasons with the NFLs Denver Broncos. Dwight Freeney Jersey . The investigation led to 14 arrests this week, and notably Zenit St. Petersburg defender Domenico Criscito was dropped from Prandellis squad after being questioned at the national teams training headquarters. Robert Mathis Jersey . Hes been getting back at them ever since. The Gold Glove second baseman helped the Cincinnati Reds get through their illness with another strong game against his former team, hitting a two-run homer and driving in three runs in a 5-3 victory over the Indians on Wednesday night. http://www.nikeindianapoliscoltsjerseyssale.com/andrew-luck-jersey . The son of English Channel has won his last three starts and will break from the No. Johnny Unitas Jersey . The New York Yankees acquired the star outfielder from the Seattle Mariners in a trade Monday for two young pitchers. “I am going from a team with the most losses to a team with the most wins,” he said. Pat Angerer Jersey . This time, they were for the guys leaving the game. Lin had 19 points and 13 assists and Carmelo Anthony scored 22, but the New York Knicks turned around this one with their reserves to beat the Cleveland Cavaliers 120-103 on Wednesday night.A goal late in the first period by Ilya Kovalchuk, followed by one early in the second was the turning point in the Jets 5-1 loss in New Jersey. The Devils added two more early in the second and it was uphill from there for the Jets, who were coming off an impressive road win in Ottawa. The teams were cautious but traded chances in the first as Jim Slater and Nik Antropov both had opportunities early to score the games opening goal. Zach Parise picked off a pass and sent Kovalchuk in alone, he beat Chris Mason for his 18th of the year at 18:59 of the first. Petr Sykora scored 1:32 into the second. Kovalchuks second of the game came on the power play and on the heels of a 5-on-3 power play. That made it 4-0 at which time Coach Claude Noel made a goaltending change, trying to spark his team. Tobias Enstrom scored for the second straight game, but Patrick Elias replied for the Devils for a 5-1 final. Enstroms goal prevented Martin Brodeur from picking up his first shutout of the season. The Jets are now 0-7 in the second half of back-to-back games. T.Y. Hilton Jersey. “We have not been able to find the right buttons for the back-to-backs,” commented Noel. As for the late first period goal, defenceman Ron Hainsey said you never want to give one up late. “On the road in this situation, you want to get out of the period tied.” Noel felt that despite the goal, his team still should have come back. “[Its] not an insurmountable lead,” he said. “Back-to-back is a poor excuse. We werent very good.” He juggled lines trying to find an offensive spark, but the Devils were again sound defensively. The offense seems to have dried up for most forwards, other than Blake Wheeler who did not make the trip. Jets play Buffalo at the MTS Centre Thursday (TSN Jets, TSN 1290), and host Florida Saturday before two road games before the all-star break. Wheeler is expected back in the lineup, and the team is hopeful that Zach Bogosian and Dustin Byfuyglien will resume skating with the team. ’ ’ ’
