Anthony Averett Stitched Jersey .League CEO Todd Greenberg shot down reports on Monday the NRL had moved against traditional Mad Monday by launching an unprecedented crackdown on illicit drug use during end-of-season partying.But Australia, Queensland and Melbourne skipper Smith, considered the games leading statesman, said players needed to take it easy during end-of-season celebrations.Mad Mondays are Mad Mondays; we go out and have a few beers and a bit of fun, Smith said at the launch of the NRL finals series at Allianz Stadium.But in regards to the illicit drug situation, I am very anti any type of drugs, so is Craig Bellamy (Melbourne Storm coach) and the rest of the club.So I would like to think all NRL players can be responsible there.We dont need any more bad headlines throughout the finals series.At the end of the day players have a position in our game to uphold and I hope they will do that accordingly.Greenberg confirmed the NRL integrity unit had sent letters to all 16 clubs last week advising them players would continue to be tested for illicit drugs in the off season. However, he said the NRL has issued the same advice over the two previous seasons.It is a reminder to players and the reminder is quite simple: make good decisions if you are playing football or not, Greenberg said.Players are very much aware when they are away from the sport that ASADA still has strong priorities and they have to make good decisions and if you dont make good decisions there are big consequences.Rugby League received another black eye last week when it was revealed Cronulla star Andrew Fifita had been writing messages of support to convicted killer Kieran Loveridge.It has been disappointing to see negative headlines, Greenberg said.The integrity unit will talk to him this week, outside of that I dont want to comment.But I am really disappointed. There are lots of things written on players arms and they have great meaning but again players have to choose wisely on the decisions they make because otherwise there will be consequences.

McCarthy, a player who played some games in the second tier for Wigan at the start of this season, would go on to shine inside Evertons midfield, outplaying the man he was brought in to replace, on one of the grandest stages in English football. On Saturday, it was fitting that Manchester Uniteds most recent dagger into the chest was delivered by Frenchman Yohan Cabaye, a wonderfully gifted central midfielder who put on an outstanding effort for Newcastle at Old Trafford. CINCINNATI -- Cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick put on a Bengals hat that he got from a young fan on his way off the field, enjoying the moment.For the first time in 42 days, it was fun again in Cincinnati.The Bengals put together their best all-around game of the season on Sunday, beating the Eagles 32-14 . The offense scored on its first six possessions -- something Cincinnati hadnt done since 2009 -- as Cincinnati sent Philadelphia to its most lopsided defeat of the season.So what if it probably makes no difference in the long run? The Bengals (4-7-1) needed a win to soothe their souls.Weve lost a lot of close games, and weve been tied, rookie receiver Cody Core said. Now everybody in the locker room is enjoying themselves, happy and smiling.Same old, same old for the Eagles (5-7) , who have dropped seven of nine after their 3-0 start. They couldnt get to Andy Dalton, and they couldnt get much out of an injury-depleted offense led by rookie quarterback Carson Wentz as Cincinnati pulled ahead 29-0.Its my ninth year of supposedly not going to the playoffs, cornerback Leodis McKelvin said. How do you think we feel about this situation? Our goal is to get into the playoffs. As you can see right now, its not happening right now.The Bengals appear to have finally found their footing after losing receiver A.J. Green and running back Giovani Bernard to injuries. Dalton threw to nine receivers, spreading the ball around in a reconfigured offense. He finished 23 of 31 for 332 yards with two touchdowns, no interceptions and a season-high passer rating of 130.We were in a better rhythm today, Dalton said. It just comes with time. Weve got new guys in there. It was definitely a big improvement this week.Some takeaways from the Bengals lopsided win:DALTON EMERGES: Daltons solid showing ended his streak of subpar games while he was under pressure. In the past four games, he threw four touchdowns and four interceptions. He also got sacked 10 times as the Bengals went 0-3-1.We gave him time and space, and he operrated, left tackle Andrew Whitworth said.
Elite Ravens Jerseys. When we give him the opportunity to find people, he always pays off.NUGENTS STRUGGLES CONTINUE: Mike Nugent missed another point-after-touchdown kick wide to the right, his fourth miss in a span of five PAT tries. Nugent made field goals from 32, 33, 26 and 38 yards, the last one deflecting off the left upright. After he missed the extra-point kick, he was booed when he came on the field again for another kick. The Bengals have been patient with him to this point, noting theres no other proven kicker available.WENTZS GROWING PAINS: The second overall pick in the draft, Wentz became the first rookie in league history to throw at least one touchdown pass without an interception in each of his first three games. In the past five games, he has three touchdowns and eight interceptions.Teams have film on us and film on Carson, coach Doug Pederson said. Theyve attacked differently. It just all begins to kind of snowball. It gets us obviously in the situation were in.NO SACKS AGAIN: The Eagles came into the game determined to get to Dalton, but he wasnt sacked. The Eagles got 20 sacks in the first six games, but have only six sacks in the past six games. This showing was especially frustrating because Dalton has been among the league leaders in getting sacked.We arent getting to the quarterback the way we should, defensive tackle Fletcher Cox said.When teams have success at dinking and dunking us, they see the previous teams. Its a copycat league. Teams are going to do that and get rid of the ball quick.LACK OF ENTHUSIASM: The Bengals sold only 55,456 tickets for the game, leaving more than 10,000 empty seats. It was by far their smallest crowd of the season.A banner in the upper deck summed up the mood in Cincinnati: Watch. Wince. Repeat.---For more NFL coverage:
