RIO DE JANEIRO -- The IOC will keep trying to enforce a rule that would prevent former doping cheats from competing in future Olympics.In an interview with The Associated Press, IOC President Thomas Bach said Monday that he will make a third attempt to push through an OIympic ban on any athlete who has received a serious drug sanction.Where there is a serious doping offense, this athlete from my personal view should not have the right to compete in the Olympic Games, Bach said. If somebody is taking steroids for weeks and months and has a whole system around him, there is so much cheating energy I do not think such athletes should compete ever again.The Court of Arbitration for Sport has twice struck down a rule that would exclude athletes with prior doping cases from the Olympics, including a proposed ban on former Russian dopers from the Rio de Janeiro Games.CAS has rejected the rule on grounds that it punishes an athlete twice for the same offense. I dont give up, Bach said during an interview at the AP offices in the main press center in Rio. Now when we are talking about the review of the anti-doping system, this is one of the questions the IOC will bring to the table again. We will look for solutions in this respect because we want the games to be clean.In 2011, the International Olympic Committee passed the so-called Osaka Rule, a measure which would have barred any athlete who had served a doping sanction of more than six months from entering the subsequent games. That was thrown out by CAS ahead of the 2012 London Olympics.This is one of the reasons the IOC always wanted, and if you asked me personally still want, that athletes who have been sanctioned for doping should not be allowed to participate any more in the Olympic Games, Bach said. Unfortunately this has not been approved by CAS now for the second time.I hope we will have another chance now, he added. Ill make another try. So we have lost twice. That encourages us to try a third time.The IOC decided not to ban the entire Russian team from the Rio Games, despite evidence of state-sponsored doping detailed in a report by World Anti-Doping Agency investigator Richard McLaren.Instead, the IOC gave international sports federations the authority to decide which individual Russian athletes could compete. At the same time, the IOC also decided that any Russians with previous doping sanctions would be barred from the games.However, the Russian ban was thrown out by CAS in the case of several athletes, including world champion breaststroker Yulia Efimova, who has served a 16-month suspension for doping.Her participation has caused a flashpoint at the swimming venue, where she was greeted by a smattering of boos after winning her preliminary heat Sunday. American swimmer Lilly King wagged her index finger in a no, no, no gesture after Efimovas semifinal victory.During the opening ceremony the Russian team was welcomed in a friendly way, Bach said. There is some suspicions with regard to doping, not only with regard to Russia.---Follow Stephen Wilson on Twitter: www.twitter.com/stevewilsonap.

In the lead up - which seemed to begin the moment Mike Geiger blew the whistle in Houston last Thursday night - the Impact rumour mill went into overdrive.

McCarthy, a player who played some games in the second tier for Wigan at the start of this season, would go on to shine inside Evertons midfield, outplaying the man he was brought in to replace, on one of the grandest stages in English football. On Saturday, it was fitting that Manchester Uniteds most recent dagger into the chest was delivered by Frenchman Yohan Cabaye, a wonderfully gifted central midfielder who put on an outstanding effort for Newcastle at Old Trafford. Eric Gordon and the Houston Rockets?have agreed to a four-year, $53 million deal, a source told ESPNs Chris Broussard.The agreement was first reported by The Vertical.The Rockets had a busy Saturday. Before reaching the deal with Gordon, they also agreed to terms with power forward Ryan Anderson, his agent told ESPNs Marc Stein.Finding another outside shooter to complement newly hired coach Mike DAntonis up-tempo offensive system was next.Gordon has never played a full 82-game season, but he was snagged to give shooting guard James Harden another playmaker on offense, something Harden and DAntoni talked about prior to the start of free agency.Gordon, 27, arrived in New Orleans in the 2011 offseason as the prize of the trade that sent Chris Paul to the Los Angeles Clippers.But Gordons career with the Hornets/Pelicans has been defined by his time off the court. The former seventh overall pick out of Indiana played just nine games in the lockout-shortened 2011-12 season, and he has missed an average of 29 games per season since. In large part because of injuries, the eight-year veteran never turned into the offensive dynamo he seemed to be ready to become after averaging 22.3 points per game with an 18.56 player efficiency rating in his third and final sseason with the Clippers.ddddddddddddGordon averaged a respectable 15.3 points and 39 percent shooting on 3s in five seasons with New Orleans, but he routinely shot in the low 40s from the field and never topped a 16 player efficiency rating in a season when he played double-digit games.After rejecting a four-year extension from the then-Hornets in January 2012, Gordon signed a maximum offer sheet worth $58 million over four years with the Phoenix Suns that summer to play for then-coach Alvin Gentry. Despite Gordons declaration via a statement that Phoenix is just where my heart is now, New Orleans matched the deal for the restricted free agent.Gentry was hired as Pelicans coach last offseason, and Gordons first season under him resulted in a 56.6 true shooting percentage -- the highest of the guards New Orleans career.But Gordon finished 2015-16 ranked 27th among shooting guards in real plus-minus (minus-0.48) and missed 37 games after breaking the ring finger on his right (shooting) hand twice as the Pelicans sputtered to a 30-52 record.Information from ESPN.coms Calvin Watkins and Justin Verrier was used in this report.
