AFL legend Kevin Sheedy reckons the sooks and whingers complaining about Greater Western Sydneys meteoric rise need to get a life.The Giants have benefited from a vast array of concessions during their brief existence, including access to some of the games best young players through high draft picks.But Sheedy, who served as the Giants inaugural coach in 2012 and 2013, says its great for the game that GWS have made it into a preliminary final in such a short period of time.People can walk around with negatives all of their lives ... tell them to get a life, he said on Monday.I had a person tell me the other day, look, its very unfair for Melbourne clubs with the Giants making it.I said go back to Hawthorn 20 years ago when they nearly merged with Melbourne. They didnt sit there and sulk. They got out and worked their butts off and have (won) what, three premierships, nearly four, and been in grand final after grand final.Thats what whingers and sooks should go and look at. The reconstruction of Hawthorn has been one of the best deals ever done and built in the AFL.With GWS preparing to face the Western Bulldogs in a preliminary final at Spotless Stadium, Sheedy believes it would be a great story for the Dogs to win their first flag in 62 years.But the Essendon legend will be decked out in his Giants scarf when he watches Saturdays game and says theres nothing stopping rival teams from climbing back to the AFL summit.Everybody forgets the Giants have cleared over 20 players back to all the other clubs, with Collingwood leading the way and Carlton, he said.If you want to make a success of your club, get your act together and start planning better than what they previously have done, and thats including the Richmonds and all the other clubs that feel oh, its been a hard period.Well, it hasnt been hard for Hawthorn and Geelong.

The 29-year-old Baines has established himself as one of the top attacking full backs in the country and was the subject of two bids from United during the last off-season. Everton manager Roberto Martinez says that keeping Baines at the club is a "massive boost and exciting for the future" because he brings "maturity and football knowledge in a very specialized position on the pitch" and an "infectious and positive influence to the rest of the squad.

Malkin got tangled up with Detroits Luke Glendening early in the third period and his left skate took the brunt of collision with the boards behind Pittsburghs net. Ryan Bailey is looking for thrills and another Olympic medal.Bobsled might be his ticket to both.Bailey -- a longtime sprinting specialist and a Summer Olympic veteran -- won the U.S. bobsled preliminary push championship for rookie hopefuls in Lake Placid, New York, on Saturday, the first step on a path that hes hoping leads to the 2018 Winter Olympics.Thats obviously the goal, Bailey said after Saturdays competition. Im not here to be just part of the team. Im here to actually be on the Olympic team and make one of those spots. Thats what Im shooting for. Hopefully once I get on ice everything can transition the way Im expecting. Thats what I want and hopefully the coaches can see that.Bailey sprinted for the U.S. at the London Olympics four years ago and left with a silver medal from the 4x100-meter relay, though Tyson Gays doping case eventually meant that medal had to be returned and reallocated. Bailey also made the 100-meter final in those games, racing alongside Usain Bolt and some of the other fastest men alive.He tried to make the U.S. team for the just-completed Rio Games, but a bad hamstring doomed his chances of qualifying. So now, its a winter sport that hes turning to with hopes of securing a medal -- and keeping it this time.Im still not over it, Bailey said.Its not uncommon for bobsled and track to be luring the same athletes.Lauryn Williams medaled as a sprinter in the summer games, and teamed with Elana Meyers Taylor to win silver at the 2014 Sochi Olympics. Longtime U.S. hurddles star Lolo Jones was on the Sochi team as a push athlete and should be in the mix for another spot in 2018.dddddddddddd Tianna Bartoletta won gold in both the long jump and the 4x100-meter relay in Rio, and credited the time she spent as a World Cup-caliber bobsledder as a major help.And in years past, the track-to-bobsled switch was pulled off by the likes of Edwin Moses, Willie Davenport and Renaldo Nehemiah.Bailey could be next. His win Saturday earns him a spot at the national push championships, which will be held on ice in Calgary, Canada next month. From there, a national team spot could await -- and if that happens, that 2018 Olympic spot would only get closer to his reach.Im an adrenalin junkie, I guess, Bailey said. So seeing a sled go 80, 90 miles an hour down a hill, to me that looks like pure fun.This was Baileys first trip to Lake Placid, and part of the trip included a walk along the U.S. teams home track at Mount Van Hoevenberg. Theres no ice on the track yet, but even as just a concrete tube Bailey understood the challenge that awaits.Walking down the track and through the curves, I was in awe, Bailey said. These things are 20 feet tall, its ridiculous, its basically vertical. I cant imagine flying through there.Other winners Saturday included Briauna Jones in womens bobsled, Nikia Squire in womens skeleton and Christopher Strup in mens skeleton.
