TEMPE, Ariz. -- Larry Fitzgerald is a bit beat up, but thats nothing new.Hes taken a lot of hits in 204 NFL games. And it hasnt mattered whether he plays wideout or in the slot, where he is now. Things get more crowded when playing as a slot receiver, but Fitzgerald said the contact is the same.I took a lot of shots outside, too, he said. You play receiver, youre going to get hit. Its the nature of the beast. But its a good problem to have. If youre not getting hit, that means youre not getting any targets.Fitzgerald had a whopping 18 targets in last Sundays 23-20 victory over San Francisco. Statistically, it was his best game of the season -- 12 catches, 122 yards.He played despite a sore knee and ankle. After the game, he acknowledged hes felt better.You dont play 13 years without playing with pain, Fitzgerald said after the game.Its football, he said. Youre going to get banged up. Its just part of it. Theres a difference between being hurt and being injured. A lot of guys are hurting. I dont want to name any on our team but there are guys that are playing through stuff.So there is no doubt that he will play Sunday when he returns to his hometown to face the Minnesota Vikings.Hes a well-conditioned athlete, Cardinals offensive coordinator Harold Goodwyn said. He knows what it takes to be great and he does everything possible as far as getting in the training room and getting the proper rehab that he needs to be successful. So it just comes down to individual want-to. The guy loves football so hes not going to let anybody take him off the grass.This is Fitzgeralds fifth trip to face the Vikings. Arizona has lost the other four.It would bother me if I played for the Vikings (and lost every game there), Fitzgerald joked. Its not like Ive got a big body of work there.Then he reeled off the names of other places where hes never won -- Buffalo, Green Bay, Pittsburgh (as a pro).Theres some places besides Minnesota I havent won, Fitzgerald said.Winning there would be something special, though. Fitzgerald was once a ballboy for the Vikings. He recalled several moments at big events growing up when he was asked about his memories of the late Metrodome.Because his father was a sports writer, he got to know players and was allowed to catch fly balls before some Twins games.I never took it for granted, he said. I was very appreciative of the opportunity.Fitzgerald brushed off the suggestion this might be the last time he plays in Minnesota.I havent thought about that, he said.But hes 33 years old and is in his 13th NFL season. Who knows when the Cardinals will be scheduled to play at Minnesota again?---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFLWholesale Air Max Fast Shipping .com) - The red-hot Los Angeles Kings will try to extend their winning streak to a season-high seven games when they visit the Edmonton Oilers for Sundays clash at Rexall Place.

Cheap Nike Air Max 2019 . President of baseball operations Larry Beinfest was fired Friday after 12 years with the Marlins. The move came as the team neared the end of its third consecutive last-place season in the NL East.Every year there are one or two teams that come out of the gates in excellent form, surprising fans and pundits alike. Through the first three months of the season, that club was Tottenham Hotspur.The north London side opened their league campaign by going unbeaten in their first 12 matches, reaching as high as second place in the table. However, Mauricio Pochettinos club has hit a bit of a snag recently and will look to find its form against Hull City on Wednesday night at White Hart Lane.After Spurs opening winning streak was snapped Nov. 26, they got back to their winning ways the following week with a 5-0 thrashing of Swansea City. Tottenham (7-6-2) came back to earth again Sunday following a hard-fought 1-0 defeat at the hands of a resurgent Manchester United.Henrikh Mkhitaryan, the much-maligned summer signing from Borussia Dortmund, struck for the only goal in the 29th minute. Spurs best chance to equalise against United came in the 55th minute as Christian Eriksen teased a free-kick into the box. Victor Wanyama lost his marker but mistimed his header from six yards.It was a close game, they were more clinical than us in the boxes and its for that (reason) we lost the game, Pochettino said. Its always the case in football and when you play a team like Manchester United, its important to be clinical when you have the opportunities to score.Spurs must quickly put that result in the past be ready to face Hull City.We have to put that frustration and anger and use it in the right way, we cant change this, so we have to use it in the riight way and try to get three points at home on Wednesday night, defender Toby Alderweireld said.ddddddddddddHull City (3-3-9) come into the clash in need of points, riding a five-match winless streak in league play following Saturdays wild 3-3 stalemate against Crystal Palace.Defending was at a premium as Robert Snodgrass, Adama Diomande and Jake Livermore all found the net for the Tigers, but Christian Benteke and Wilfried Zaha scored for Palace before Fraizer Campbell netted the final equaliser with 89 minutes on the clock.While Diomande and his teammates were disappointed not to take three points, there were plenty of positives.I think we were all disappointed about the final result, but there are a lot of positives that we can take from the game, the Norwegian striker said. It was probably the best we have played at home this season and we were happy to see the combination between midfield and attack working well.Unfortunately we have missed the opportunity to take all of the points, but we havent lost in our last three league games at home now, and the real positive from Saturday was scoring three goals.Hull havent beaten Tottenham since their first Premier League game against them in October 2008, and have never scored more than once in their eight Premier League games versus Spurs.Hull City are on a run of five successive defeats away from home in the Premier League and havent scored in the last three.
