KAPOLEI, Hawaii -- Waves, wind and darkness hampered the ocean search off Hawaii for a Chinese man reported missing while attempting to set a sailing record, the U.S. Coast Guard pilot who was the missions air commander said Thursday.It was pretty frustrating not to find him, not to hear him, Lt. Ben Powers said at Air Station Barbers Point in west Oahu, the morning after the Coast Guard called off its search for Guo Chuan. The hardest thing we do is search for a person in the water because its a huge ocean.Guo, 50, was attempting to set a sailing record from San Francisco to Shanghai. The search was suspended after a U.S. Navy crew from the USS Makin Island went aboard Guos 97-foot trimaran about 620 miles northwest of Oahu and found only his life jacket.As one of the pilots of one of the HC-130 Hercules planes that participated in the search, Powers spent hours scanning the ocean for Guo through 4-to-6-foot waves. There was no moon, he said, so illumination was low even with night-vision goggles.Rescuers radioed Guo every 15 to 30 minutes, Powers said. There was no response.When the persons in the water basically the only thing above the water is the persons head, Powers said. So thats really what were looking for -- something the size of a human head from an aircraft from 300 to 700 feet.Because Guos boat was well-tracked, rescuers had a good idea where he fell into the water, Powers said.Guo was a professional mariner with a deep passion for sailing. Our thanks to our Navy partners who helped us search for this vessel in a timely manner so far from shore in an attempt to locate Mr. (Guo) Chuan. Our deepest condolences go out not only to his family and friends but also to his racing team and the sailing community, said Capt. Robert Hendrickson, who directed the Coast Guards search.Guos sailboat, the Qingdao China, is adrift, and its main sail has been taken down, the Coast Guard said. The Coast Guard says it broadcast a warning to mariners to beware of the drifting boat.Guos racing team plans to recover the sailboat, the Coast Guard said.Guo was the first Chinese person to sail around the world in 2013, according to his website, guochuanracing.com.Guo left San Francisco on Oct. 18 to challenge the solo nonstop trans-Pacific world record. The current speed record for that journey is 21 days, and he was trying to sail from San Francisco to Shanghai within 20 days, the website says.In Beijing, the Foreign Ministry said on Thursday that Chinas consulate general in Los Angeles had alerted the U.S. Coast Guard in Hawaii when it learned that Guo could not be reached. Spokesman Lu Kang said Chinese diplomats had helped in the coordination of the search and continued to monitor the situation.---Follow Jennifer Sinco Kelleher at http://www.twitter.com/JenHapa.

Peter Gammons, an analyst for Major League Baseballs network and website, drew the ire of hockey fans on Sunday when he criticized the two NHL teams on Twitter for their physical game the night before.PHILADELPHIA -- The other Philadelphia Eagles rookie under the microscope had an impressive debut, too.Coach Doug Pederson made all the right calls in his first game in charge, including his bold decision to promote Carson Wentz in the first place.Wentz stole the spotlight with an outstanding performance against the Browns, but Pederson helped make it happen. His game plan was excellent and it gave Wentz an opportunity to shine.I was excited for Carson, to see him play, Pederson said Monday. You want so badly for the guys to do well. But overall, felt really good and pleased with their performance. But from my standpoint, I was pretty calm.Pederson wasnt a popular choice to replace Chip Kelly. Many fans wanted a big-name coach or at least one with a pedigree.Instead, owner Jeffrey Lurie turned to a guy who had only been a head coach in high school. But Lurie was familiar with Pederson, who was a quarterback for the Eagles in 1999-2000 and an assistant coach under Andy Reid in Philly and Kansas City.Pederson clearly knows offense. He called several formations, used various personnel packages and kept the defense off-balance. He relayed the plays quickly to Wentz, giving him time to break the huddle, get to the line and survey the defense.One knock against Reid during his tenure in Philadelphia was wasting timeouts because the play clock was winding down.Its tremendous for us to get the play into him quickly because we do a lot of kill package plays and it just gives him time at the liine to see what hes seeing defensively and then put us in the right play, Pederson said.ddddddddddddThe Eagles were balanced with run-pass plays and dominated the game by controlling the ball almost 40 minutes.Time of possession was a sore topic the past three years when Kelly ran an up-tempo offense and the defense spent about 35 minutes per game on the field.The run game really helps in keeping your offense on the football field by keeping yourself in third-and-more-manageable, shorter situations that we had in the game, Pederson said. When you come away and look at (39) minutes of ball control, thats great. You should win the game.Pederson showed hes not afraid to gamble when he went for it on fourth-and-4 from the Browns 40 with a 15-10 lead in the third quarter. Wentz connected with Zach Ertz for a first down and tossed a 35-yard TD pass to Nelson Agholor on the next play.I know he has an aggressive nature about him, Wentz said about the call. I was pretty excited that he had the faith in me to call the fourth-and-4 play and put us in that situation.Game notesTE Ertz has a first rib displacement and CB Leodis McKelvin has a left hamstring strain. Pederson said both players are week to week so its unlikely either will play next Monday night at Chicago.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org---Follow Rob Maaddi on Twitter: https://twitter.com/AP-RobMaaddi ' ' '
