Carlin Isles can provide the U.S. with the spark they need to win the Olympic sevens title, according to teammate Danny Barrett.Isles, a former track athlete, has been dubbed the fastest man in rugby -- he has a 100m personal best of 10.13sec -- and it has been claimed that he is quicker than Usain Bolt over 20 metres.He will be part of a U.S. squad that is being widely backed to make a major mark on the mens rugby sevens tournament, which kicks off next week.And his blistering pace promises to be one of the Rio sevens highlights if his American teammates can play their part in allowing him to potentially wreak havoc.The first time I saw Carlin run, it just looked so easy, Barrett said.You just dont have a chance. He is so fast, he makes fast people look slow. There are some guys out there who are under 11 seconds for 100 metres, and he makes them look slow. Its unreal.His acceleration is so quick. I am sure that everyone has seen that stat that over 20 metres, he is faster than Usain Bolt, so thats a pretty special athlete to have on your team.If hes that fast and he has got a ball in his hand, its unfair. It is kind of like having your trump card. He is one of the guys we can count on.People have to play him differently because hes so fast, and that opens up other opportunities for the other guys.Isles, meanwhile, revealed it was an early morning telephone conversation with former England scrum-half Nigel Melville helped launch his rugby career.And Melvilles foresight could be underlined in dazzling fashion at the Rio Olympics by the 26-year-old speed machine.But it could have been a different story altogether, as during the build-up to London 2012, Isles was preparing for American trials -- in track and field.In 2012, I was getting ready for the US Olympic trials in track and field, he said.I was studying, and I came across some rugby. I started watching it, and I thought oh man. It was a tough, tenacious sport, and I thought I could be pretty good at it.I looked up Nigel Melville (then USA Rugby chief executive, and now Rugby Football Union director of professional rugby) on Google for his contact information.He rang me at five in the morning, and started talking to me, and four days later I packed up all my stuff -- I was living in Austin, Texas at the time -- and drove to Aspen, Colorado, played rugby there for about a month and then got invited to a US development tour in Canada. I toured there, and the next day, I signed a contract.While Isles is now among the biggest box-office talents in world rugby, he has got there helped by a ferocious drive for success borne from a difficult childhood that saw him up grow up in an Ohio foster home before being adopted at the age of seven.My childhood was a fight and a struggle to be somebody, and not be another statistic, he added.When times got rough, it was just having the mindset to keep going. You have got to motivate yourself, and I taught myself that.You can be anybody you want to be, but you have got to work hard and have a vision. For me, its just having a drive to never stop and keep going, no matter how tough it is. Ultimately, it is up to you. Cheap Jordans From China .

Western was last ranked first in the country in October 2011. Look out, Browns. The Panthers will challenge for the No. 1 pick in next years draft.Cam Newton has a concussion, the secondary is awful and the defending NFC champions are 1-3. Theyve already lost more games than in 2015 when they were 17-2.They must be finished. Right?Take it easy.The season is only one-quarter over and Derek Anderson is a solid backup. The Falcons (3-1) are playing well, but their defense is suspect so the NFC South isnt out of reach.Carolina hosts Tampa Bay (1-3) next Monday night and visits New Orleans (1-3) the following week, so they could be even by their bye week.Here are other overreactions following Week 4:OVERREACTION: Matt Ryan to Julio Jones is the greatest QB-WR combo in NFL history.

Just to name a few.---OVERREACTION: The Raiders will end their playoff drought.

Theyre that close to being 1-3.---OVERREACTION: Andrew Luck is overrated.

Hes been sacked 15 times and is on pace to be hitt nearly 200 times this season.dddddddddddd.---OVERREACTION: Pittsburghs 34-3 loss to the Eagles was a blessing in disguise. They rebounded nicely with a 43-14 win over Kansas City.REALISTIC REACTION: Theyre a legitimate contender in the AFC and certainly not as bad as the loss to Philadelphia indicated, but a 31-point loss is never anything to remember fondly.---OVERREACTION: The Ravens are a fluke. After beating teams that were 1-8 through the first three weeks, they lost their first tough test to Oakland.REALISTIC REACTION: You can only beat the teams on your schedule. Theyll be in the mix in the AFC North.---OVERREACTION: Chip Kelly will be the first coach fired. The 49ers have lost three straight after opening the season with a shutout win over the Rams.REALISTIC REACTION: Kelly signed a four-year deal worth $24 million.
