Carmen Small had her Olympic dreams crushed for the second time in less than a month.The veteran cyclist lost her arbitration case Wednesday for a spot on the four-member U.S. team headed for Rio, and will be forced to watch from the sidelines as the powerhouse womens squad rides for gold.Megan Guarnier was the only rider who earned a guaranteed spot on the squad by virtue of her bronze medal at the world championships. That left three discretionary picks that went to two-time and reigning Olympic time trial gold medalist Kristin Armstrong, veteran Evelyn Stevens and climbing specialist Mara Abbott. Amber Neben also lost her arbitration case.The 36-year-old Small had argued that her handy victories over Armstrong and Stevens at the time trial national championships this year should have helped her earn a spot. She also highlighted the fact that she has been part of two world champion time trial teams and is a former world time trial bronze medalist. Robert Newhouse Cowboys Jersey .

In what the team had called a retirement, Ryan said Thursday that he is resigning as chief executive of the Rangers in a move effective at the end of this month.John McGinn has been named Scottish Championship player of the season but believes Neil Lennon could make him an even better player next term. The Hibs midfielder enjoyed a fine campaign at Easter Road after joining from St Mirren last summer, helping the team win the Scottish Cup and reach the League Cup final.His latest accolade comes in a season which also saw him win his first senior international cap in March, putting in a man of the match performance as Scotland beat Denmark 1-0. Hibernians John McGinn has been awarded the Championship Player of the Season Despite their historic Scottish Cup success, Alan Stubbs failed to guide Hibs back to the Premiership and has since elected to take over at Sky Bet Championship side Rotherham.Lennon is interested in becoming the next Hibernian manager, but is seeking assurances over the clubs budget, according to Sky sources.Asked whether it would appeal to play under the former Celtic boss, McGinn was in no doubt and thinks it reflects well on the club that Lennon has shown an interest in the vacancy.Definitely; like the old gaffer, he [Lennon] played at the top level and Im sure he would make me a better player but whoever the board decide, I am interested to see what it would be like and would be keen to learn under them, McGinn told Sky Sports News HQ. Neil Lennon has been linked with the Hibernian job I think it is a big thing for the club that people who have managed at the top level are getting linked with it but whether it is him or someone else, I am sure the board will make the right decision and we are all looking forward to impressing the new manager.The 21-year-old says he is keen for a repeat of the scenes during their Scottish Cup winning parade where thousands lined the streets in the Scottish ccapital.ddddddddddddThe scenes you saw on the Sunday in Edinburgh sends out a message of what this club can achieve, the potential it has got and hopefully we can get a tenth of the people who were lining the streets to come on a Saturday and really maximise the potential the clubs got. McGinn made his Scotland debut against Denmark We are desperate in the dressing room to get the club back up to the Premiership and get it flourishing again.McGinn says he remains committed to Hibs, despite the prospect of another season in the Scottish Championship.The Scottish Cup was special and was an amazing day for one part of the city of Edinburgh but making my international debut was on a par. It is something that I didnt expect to happen at the start of the season, he said.I remember sitting in with the gaffer [Stubbs] and he told me he would definitely make me a better player and I was wondering how he could guarantee that but after working with him and the coaching staff, I realised I was getting better and better. McGinn enjoyed a fine debut season at Easter Road I am confident in myself that I can carry it on next season and hopefully improve on this year. I have developed here and in the Championship and have been given opportunities at a higher level from here, so I dont see it being a problem next year and hopefully the opportunities can still come around.Personally it has been brilliant and I think this award tops it off for me. It has been a season full of ups and downs and I am just delighted.
