ALLEN PARK, Mich. - Ndamukong Suh says he is happy his suspension was lifted for Sundays playoff game in Dallas.And thats about all the Detroit defensive tackle was willing to offer about his successful appeal.Suh spoke Wednesday, one day after a hearing officer overturned a one-game league suspension, saying the Lions star needed only to pay a $70,000 fine. Suh was suspended for stepping on Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers left leg twice last Sunday in a loss to Green Bay, but now hell be available for this weekends playoff game at Dallas.Im just pleased with the decision and glad I have the opportunity — I can go against Dallas and help my teammates win the game, Suh said. I think thats most important.Suh made it clear he wasnt going to elaborate about his suspension or the appeal. At first, he tried changing the subject by saying he was focused on Dallas — or some variation of that answer. Later, Suh began repeatedly saying next question when pressed about the incident with Rodgers and its aftermath.When Lions coach Jim Caldwell spoke, he also tried to put a stop to questions about Suh and his appeal, although he did talk a bit about Suhs attitude in their first year together. Caldwell took over as Detroits coach after last season.I can only tell you that since Ive been here with him, hes been the guy that has been solid, Caldwell said. Hes been good. He listens, and he tries to do the right thing.Suh has a long list of fines and one previous suspension, for two games in 2011 for stepping on the right arm of Packers lineman Evan Dietrich-Smith. Suh has been fined eight times in his career, but this was the first in 2014.Suhs short-lived suspension came after Detroit centre Dominic Raiola served a one-game ban for stepping on a Chicago player. Raiola missed the regular-season finale at Green Bay, and the Packers beat Detroit in a game that decided the NFC North title.Raiola was wearing a Bad Boys shirt Wednesday — a reference to Detroits championship-winning NBA team of a quarter-century ago — but he said he wasnt trying to send any sort of message with it. He said the offensive linemen have had those shirts for a while and he just happened to be wearing it.I know Im chomping at the bit to get back out there, Raiola said. I just think this team is hungry. The more shots that people take at us, the stronger we get, the tougher we get.Suh stepped on Rodgers once with each foot, which violated unnecessary roughness rules, according to the league. Hearing officer Ted Cottrell heard Suhs expedited appeal Tuesday and ruled that Suh can play at Dallas. Cottrells decision means the Lions will have one of their key defensive cogs. Suh finished the season with a team-high 8 1/2 sacks and helped Detroit rank second overall defensively and first against the run.But the disciplinary action against Suh and Raiola raised familiar concerns about the Lions, who went 11-5 to earn a wild card but have had their maturity questioned in the past. Caldwell has received a lot of credit for keeping Detroit focused, but the Lions now have some distractions they need to put behind them before the playoffs.Anything that goes on on that field, Im responsible for, Caldwell said. Whether its good or whether its bad. Every call thats made, every action thats taken out there on the field, thats my responsibility, and if theres something thats negative, its my job to get it changed. If I dont get it changed, I wont be here very long. I do understand that. Ive always understood that.___Online:AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Wholesale Football Jerseys China .

This past year, with changing my training base, helped renew my passion and love for training and competing," said Lacoste. "Im very happy with all that I have accomplished and I would like to thank everyone who made my journey and my career a success. Even though I had ups and downs during the years, you were always there to help and give me advice to be a better skater and a better person. And I would like to thank my family, especially my parents and my sister. They supported me through 20 years of my skating career, and I truly cherish the commitment and sacrifices they made to allow me to pursue my dreams."

I also appreciate all the choreographers who helped me develop that very important aspect of my figure skating. My home club, CPA Du Roussillon, ARPAS (Patinage Rive-Sud), Patinage Quéebec and Skate Canada were with me every step of the way, and your support is so appreciated. And lastly I would like to thank all the officials, volunteers, supporters and fans, who always had a word of encouragement or cheered me on. Without all of these people in my life, I would never have achieved my goals, or become the person that I am now." "Amelie represented Skate Canada proudly as a member of our national team for many years and as our Canadian champion in 2012," said Mike Slipchuk, High Performance Director, Skate Canada. "She worked with great desire and determination to achieve her goals, and pursue her dreams. We are pleased she plans to stay involved in skating, and look forward to keeping her engaged now as a member of our national team alumni." Although not completely sure of her future plans, Lacoste plans to stay connected to skating and to give back to the sport that has been so much a part of her life. She has a final word for anyone who wants to pursue and achieve a goal. "Believe in your dreams. Dreams do come true if you are willing do anything in your willpower to achieve it. Go after it. The most important thing, listen to your heart and follow your intuition." ' ' '
