Larry Collmus has stepped down as the wintertime racetrack announcer at Gulfstream Park. No replacement has been named.Collmus, 49, who began calling the races at Gulfstream in January 2007, cited the desire to lessen his workload, which includes calling races at the New York Racing Association tracks -- Aqueduct, Belmont, and Saratoga -- seven months of the year as well as being the voice of the Triple Crown and Breeders Cup. Collmus informed Gulfstream Park management of his decision Wednesday morning.I will not be returning as the announcer for the winter meet at Gulfstream, Collmus said. Its been a good 10 years, but I feel at this time of my career that its in my best interests to cut back my schedule. Ill be 50 years old in October, and the wear and tear of nearly year-round race-calling will catch up to my body and brain eventually.A winter break will boost my energy levels and give me an opportunity to keep the creative juices flowing. I am extremely fortunate to work for the NYRA and for NBC Sports, and I think I owe it to them to be the best I can be for many years to come.Pete Aiello calls the races at Gulfstream from early April through November. Though Gulfstream officials said Wednesday that no decision has been made on Collmuss replacement, it is expected that Aiello will be offered the wintertime position. Last winter, Aiello called the races at Oaklawn Park, which means that track could need an announcer for the 2017 meet.In a statement, Gulfstream Park president and general manager P.J. Campo said: We totally understand where Larry is coming from. Hes under tremendous stress each day with everything hes doing, and Larry is a perfectionist. We appreciate everything Larry has done for Gulfstream. Hes been a true professional and a great friend to Gulfstream. We wish him all the best moving forward.Collmus, who has called races at a plethora of tracks starting in 1985, said he worked at Gulfstream on a year-to-year oral contract. In the summer of 2014, Collmus signed a five-year contract to call the races at NYRA, taking over for the retiring Tom Durkin.In April 2015, Collmus began his NYRA duties. He calls the races at Aqueduct, Belmont, and Saratoga from April through October.Asked if he planned to pick up any more work from NYRA, Collmus said, At this point, nothing changes with my NYRA schedule.From November to March, John Imbriale and Travis Stone split the race-calling job at NYRA.Shkodran Mustafi Jersey . -- Jakob Silfverberg is making himself right at home with the Anaheim Ducks, scoring four goals in his first four games.

The offensive line has been inconsistent. The running game has disappeared with starter Rashad Jennings missing the past three games and Shane Vereen lost for the season with a triceps injury in Week 3.The supposed dynamic wide receiver trio of Odell Beckham Jr., Victor Cruz and Sterling Shepard has found itself covered way too often.Then there is Manning. He just has not been as sharp as in recent years. The best example was his missing a walk-in touchdown pass to tight end Will Tye with New York trailing 14-6 late in the first half Sunday night against the Packers. Tye was wide open and Manning overthrew him.Thats not the Manning of the past two seasons in now head coach Ben McAdoos West Coast offense.It has critics wondering if Manning is starting to slip in his 13th season in the league.I think when things go wrong everyone needs something to point at, Beckham said Wednesday after the Giants (2-3) finished practice for Sundays game at home against Baltimore (3-2).Its easy to point the finger here and there. Internally between all of us, we have to play better. We all need to do things to make it easier on him (Manning) and on ourselves. Everyone needs to step it up.Manning willingly took the blame after the Giants third straight loss. He said he feels good physically, downplaying a big hit he took against Washington in the third game of the season.Manning refused to say how he felt he was playing this season.I didnt play as well as I needed to last week, he said. I missed some throws. So I need to play better, I have to make some more throws, better decisions, cant turn the ball over, but we will improve. We will keep working hard and we will figure it out.The Giants have scored 89 points this season, with special teams providing a touchdown on a blocked field goal.The offense has eight touchdowns. Five have been on pass receptions and three on runns.ddddddddddddJosh Brown has added nine field goals.Cruz said no one is panicking when it comes to Manning, who has hit 119 of 187 for 1,385 yards and four interceptions.Hes still playing in great form, Cruz said of Manning. You cant just go off a couple of games and negate what hes done in the games that weve won and the good things hes done. Obviously, its easy to harp on the negative things, but youve got to look at the positives as well.In the past two games, Manning has been under a lot of pressure. He seemingly has tossed balls away rather than take a sack or hang in there and try to make a big play.New York also has hurt itself with turnovers and penalties. They are minus-7 in turnover differential and have been flagged 32 times for 313 yards in penalties.Take away the mistakes, and the offense improves.We need to score more points, period, McAdoo said . We had four first downs inside the 30-yard line, two of them were inside the 15 and we need to score touchdowns in the green zone. Whether theyre in the first quarter, second quarter, third quarter, fourth quarter, well take them. We need points, we need to score touchdowns. Whatever were averaging right now is not nearly good enough.Game notesJennings said he practiced with the first team Wednesday and hopes to return Sunday. ... DE Jason Pierre-Paul (groin) did not practice along with LB Devon Kennard (concussion), CB Eli Apple (groin), S Nat Berhe (concussion), T Marshall Newhouse (calf), S Darian Thompson (foot). ... TE Larry Donnell (concussion) wore a non-contact jersey at the workout. ... CB Dominque Rodgers-Cromartie (groin) was limited Wednesday but says he will play. ... McAdoo said LT Ereck Flowers worked with the first team so expect him to start. The second-year player shoved an ESPN reporter in the locker room after Sunday nights game. There was some speculation that Flowers would be benched. The team said any punishment would be handled in-house.---Online: AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
