LONDON -- Brazil goalkeeper Julio Cesar is on the verge of finalizing a move from Inter Milan to Premier League side Queens Park Rangers after agreeing a four-year contract with the west London club. The 32-year-old Cesar has 64 caps for Brazil. He spent the past seven years at Inter, where he won a Champions League and five Serie A titles. He tells the QPR website Wednesday that "the English Premier League is the best division in the world. Everyone wants to play here and I am no different. Now, I just want to give my all to the club and show the fans what I am capable of." The move is subject to the player securing a visa. Rob Gronkowski Jersey . He made the call himself to go for it, and just barely pulled it off. Posey also produced a second straight three-hit game, Madison Bumgarner backed up his nice, new contract with a second consecutive win, and the San Francisco Giants beat the Philadelphia Phillies 4-2 on Tuesday night. Kevin Faulk Jersey . Niese struck out a career-high 10 in six scoreless innings before he was pulled as a precaution and New York shut down the slumping St. http://www.footballpatriotsteamshop.com/womens-tommy-kelly-nike-jersey-gb-77.html .C. -- The Tampa Bay Lightning werent about to let themselves fall behind on the road again. Adrian Wilson Womens Jersey . -- San Francisco 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh is taking on another coach. Tedy Bruschi Jersey . The All-Stars werent traded straight up -- yes, it took four teams, 10 other players, and five draft picks to move Iguodala from Philadelphia to Denver and Bynum from the Los Angeles Lakers to the 76ers -- but in Philly, the trade is viewed through a one-for-one prism.CARDIFF -- It certainly wasnt the way Nathan Sharpe envisaged ending his rugby career. For the past 16 years, the strapping Australia lock has earned a living by smashing into rucks, leaping high in lineouts and pushing hard in the middle of scrums. Lining up kicks from the touchline has never been on his to-do list. But there he was in Cardiffs Millennium Stadium on Saturday, 30 metres out and attempting a conversion with his last competitive touch of rugby ball. His kick failed to reach the posts -- one of the few times Sharpe has come up short in a Wallaby jersey. "Of course Im going to miss it -- its what Ive done since I can remember," an emotional Sharpe said as he assessed his long, distinguished career after the 14-12 victory over Wales. "I am going to have to find some walls to run into every weekend, just to get my head around things, ease my way out of it." Sharpes debut for Australia came in a match against France in 2002 and he turned out for 115 more tests, making him the Wallabies second most-capped players after scrumhalf great George Gregan. With James Horwill, David Pocock and Will Genia all struggling with injury in the second half of 2012, Robbie Deans turned to Sharpe to lead his tired side through its end-of-season European tour. After scrappy wins over England and Italy, Sharpe summoned up one last big match against Wales in which Kurtley Beale scored aa last-minute, match-winning try to provide a fitting send-off for Sharpe.dddddddddddd "What better way of finishing a game for a great man as Nathan, our skipper who is retiring," Beale said. "We are very relieved and happy for him." Naturally, the unassuming Sharpe refused to take any credit. "It wasnt for me -- it was what weve spoken about all year," he said. "Games go one way and then the other, and if you stick in there you dont know whats going to happen. "I thought that was pretty consistent with the character the team has shown this year." Sharpe entered the national scene at senior level too late to take part in the 2001 series against the British & Irish Lions, and he is bowing out six months before the combined team from the four home unions heads Down Under again. There will be no backtracking on his decision to retire, no matter how hard it will be. "The thing Ill probably miss most is being in the team environment, having a collective goal in a pressure-cooker situation each weekend," he said, close to tears. "As much as you love it, you hate it. There are big highs and low lows. Thatll be the most challenging thing for me." Sharpe ends his Wallaby career with eight international tries to his name -- and one missed conversion. "It was the first -- and Id say it was the last," he said. ' ' '
