RIO DE JANEIRO -- Michelle Carter loves to let the tension build.At the Olympics, she took it to extremes.The American shot putter waited until her last throw Friday night to knock off arguably the best woman to ever compete in the event -- two-time defending champion Valerie Adams of New Zealand.Now, Carter has a gold medal to go with the silver one her longtime NFL defensive lineman father, Michael Carter, captured in the shot put at the 1984 Los Angeles Games.It marks the first gold by an American woman in the event and just the second medal all-time. She joins an exclusive club that, until Friday, only included Earlene Brown, who won bronze at the 1960 Games.Its not over `til its over, said Carter, who has a fashion line called Shot Diva. I knew it was a good throw, but I didnt know how far it could be.Let the record show that the throw went 20.63 meters (67 feet 8 \\ inches) to overtake Adams and break her own American record. Adams had the final attempt of the evening, but couldnt come close to equaling the mark. Anita Marton of Hungary was third.That was a big throw, said Adams, who was going for an unprecedented third straight Olympic title in the event. You can never underestimate anybody, especially Michelle. Shes one of these people that can pop out anything, especially in the last round.You have to expect the unexpected.This really shouldnt have been that unexpected. Carter won the title at world indoors in March on her last throw. She also won at U.S. trials a month ago on her last throw.Just something they practice, her father said.She has more, too, Michael Carter proudly boasted. I said, `If you do what I ask you to, you can throw far. How far is up to you.Im numb right now.Michael Carter was a defensive lineman for the San Francisco 49ers on three Super Bowl-winning teams. He said this doesnt compare with all those rings or even his own Olympic medal. Its way better.Growing up, Michelle Carter didnt know her dad threw the shot, only that he played football.In seventh grade, Carter expressed a desire to try the shot put. At first, dad was a little hesitant, thinking she was only trying to follow in his footsteps.She wasnt.He worked with her through a record-breaking high school career, and thought his coaching days were done once she went to the University of Texas. But he was asked to help out, so he drove from Dallas to Austin -- some 340 miles roundtrip -- every two weeks to offer some guidance.Carter has blossomed into one of the worlds top throwers. She set the American outdoor record of 20.24 meters (66 feet, 5 inches) in 2013 and broke the nations indoor mark with a throw of 20.21 (66-3 }) to capture her world title in March.When healthy, Adams has been almost unbeatable in the event. Shes a star in New Zealand, though she may only be the second-best known of her 17 brothers and sisters outside of her country. Her youngest brother, Steven, is a center for the Oklahoma City Thunder and famous for his distinctive mustache.Its been a tough road lately for Adams, whos had five surgeries over the last three seasons, including knee surgery this time a year ago that had her wondering whether she would be ready for the Olympics.She was, but couldnt bring home a third straight Olympic title.Its a very hard thing to do and come away with, she said. I want New Zealand to know I threw my heart out there.I gave it my best shot. This is the best I came up with today. Its a little bit disappointing. Kendall Sheffield Youth Jersey . PETERSBURG, Fla. Julio Jones Womens Jersey . The Clippers were angry about blowing a big lead; the Kings didnt like being in that kind of hole and nearly digging themselves out only to lose. http://www.falconsrookiestore.com/Falcons-Kaleb-Mcgary-Jersey/ . Instead of dwelling on the negative, Oates focused on what was good about the clubs recent play. It worked. Julio Jones Jersey . Rob Manfred, baseballs chief operating officer, testified last week during the grievance filed by the players union to overturn Rodriguezs 211-game suspension. A person familiar with the hearing, speaking on condition of anonymity, told The Associated Press on Saturday that Manfred testified the sport wasnt concerned whether Bosch distributed performance-enhancing drugs to minors because MLBs interest was his relationship with players under investigation. John Cominsky Falcons Jersey . -- Team after team passed on Andre Ellington in the draft. Before, during and after their A-League fight, it was plain that theres no love lost between John Aloisi and John van t Schip.The former A-League allies competed vociferously at AAMI Park on Saturday night, only for Melbourne City and Brisbane Roar to share the spoils in a 1-1 draw.Prior to the match, Aloisi stoked the fire by putting the microscope on referee Shaun Evans treatment of Bruno Fornaroli.Van t Schip countered by calling him a whingeing baby that should focus on his own affairs.After kickoff, Brisbanes Jade North took the Roars attention on Fornaroli to a new level by diving in an attempt to get the A-Leagues leading scorer in hot water.It didnt work.City played on while the defender was on the ground, scoring an equaliser that didnt previously look like coming.Cue hysterics on both benches, Citys goalkeeper remonstrating in front of Brisbanes bench and Roar assistant Ross Aloisi throwing the ball at City defender Josh Rose.And that was before either coach sat down in front of a microphone.Van t Schip lashed Aloisi for his hypocrisy over Citys alleged diving, and North for his act.A coach accusing us of diving ... and having a player like North doing that, he said.He tried to get Bruno sent off and in the end they got punished.Credit to (Citys playerrs).dddddddddddd They understood what was going on and they made a good goal.Aloisi said he would address the incident with North but backed the defenders integrity.He obviously got hit but was it hard enough to go down? I dont think so, he said.Jades not a player to try and get someone sent off.Van t Schip suggested Aloisis ploy to influence Evans paid off after Fornaroli was not awarded free kicks that he might otherwise have won.Ask the referees. It looks like it. But you have to be careful about those comments, he said.Aloisi said he couldnt influence a referee, saying his biggest gripe was Dean Bouzanis act of running from the City goal to deliver a riposte.It was a bit poor to run all that way to have a go at me, he said.If my players sledged the opposition coach, Id be disappointed. Its a lack of respect.But both managers bit back on the idea that a personal animosity existed between the two.Aloisi said he saw a manager trying to protect his own team and understood why hed be jeered by AAMI Park fans.The Dutchman said it was just part of the game.It shows hes been worried about his own team, thats all I can make of it, he said.
