BALTIMORE - Ravens defensive tackle Haloti Ngata was suspended without pay for four games Thursday for violating the NFLs policy on performance-enhancing substances.Ngata will miss the rest of the regular season but will be eligible for the playoffs, the league said.Ngata said in a statement released by the team that he took Adderall, a drug used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.I made a mistake, and I own this, he said.The suspension costs Baltimore one of its defensive stars as the Ravens compete for a playoff berth. Theyre 1 1/2 games behind the Bengals in the AFC North and one of six 7-5 teams tied for the second wild-card spot.I am deeply sorry and broken up over this, Ngata said. I let down my family, my teammates, Ravens fans and myself. My hope is that the Ravens make the playoffs, and I believe they can do this. And then I can come back and help us win.Ravens general manager Ozzie Newsome said, We are disappointed with Haloti, but no more than he is with himself,Ngata has two sacks, two interceptions and two forced fumbles in 12 games this season. Rookie Timmy Jernigan, a second-round pick out of Florida State, likely will take his place in the starting lineup.Im definitely prepared. Thats all Ive wanted ever since Ive been here is a shot, Jernigan said after Thursdays practice. Playing 15, 17 snaps a game, its tough to get going, but now I kind of have an opportunity to show the world that I can actually (play).Baltimore defensive co-ordinator Dean Pees knows what its like to have to replace a standout player, and hes prepared to move on without Ngata.Its disappointing and all that, but it would be the same thing if we lost anybody due to injury, Pees said. You never want to lose anybody for any reason at all, but thats the name of the game. Everybody goes through stuff at this time of year.A couple years ago, we played 10 games without Ray Lewis, played eight games without (linebacker Terrell) Suggs. Were going to play four games without Haloti. Next guy up. Lets play.The Ravens face Miami on the road Sunday, so its likely Pees would have used a variety of defensive linemen even if Ngata was available.I think its going to be a committee effort this week down there anyhow in the 80-degree weather, Pees said. Late in the season and stuff, we roll guys a lot the way it is, and this game wouldnt have been any different.The NFL has been concerned about an increase in Adderall use. Its drug tests dont differentiate between Adderall and other amphetamines, which can help with concentration and stamina. Players diagnosed with ADHD can apply for a therapeutic use exemption that permits them to take the drug.Under its agreement with the union, the NFL doesnt identify the substance when a player is punished. In the past, suspended players frequently blamed Adderall, but the league could not confirm or deny whether that was the basis for the positive test.But under the new drug agreement announced earlier this season, the NFL can now disclose information to correct inaccurate public claims made by that player or his representatives about the discipline.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Tom Brunansky Twins Jersey .com) - The Vancouver Canucks will try to win two straight games for the first time since mid-January on Monday night as they play host to the struggling New York Islanders.

Goals from Jerome Boateng, Franck Ribery and Thomas Mueller extended Bayerns unbeaten run to a record 37 matches. "This record is incredible," Bayern coach Pep Guardiola said. Elsewhere, Son Heung-min scored a hat trick against his former team for Bayer Leverkusen to beat Hamburger SV 5-3 and level on points with Dortmund. Schalke got two goals from Kevin-Prince Boateng in a come-from-behind 3-1 victory over Werder Bremen. Adrian Ramos scored twice to secure Hertha Berlins 3-2 victory in Hoffenheim, after the visitors squandered a two-goal lead. Bayerns victory broke Hamburgs 36-match unbeaten run from January 1982 to January 1983. Bayern last lost on Oct. 28, 2012, 2-1 against Leverkusen in Munich. With 32 points from 12 matches, Guardiola has the best start of all-time of a coach in the Bundesliga. Bayern is four points clear of Dortmund and Leverkusen, while Wolfsburg is fourth, seven points behind the duo. Dortmund hosts Bayern in the next round, after the international break. Bayern eased past Augsburg after taking an early lead through a goal by Boateng -- the half-brother of Kevin-Prince -- in the fifth minute. Dantes glancing header off a corner landed in front of Boateng at the far post and he turned and drilled a left-foot shot into the opposite corner. Ribery fired a free kick into the upper corner in first-half injury time and Mueller converted a penalty in stoppage time to complete the victory. Dortmund went ahead in Wolfsburg but then fell to its second defeat this week, after losing at home to Arsenal 1-0 in the Champions League. It also lost central defender Neven Subotic to a knee injury shortly before halftime and Dortmund coach Juergen Klopp said the Serbia international may have damaged a ligament. Subotic was taken to a hospital for tests. Marco Reus curled a free kick over the wall in injury time of the first half. But Ricardo Rodriguez replied with another free kick goal, swingiing the ball into the area where it took a bounce to fool goalkeeper Roman Weidenfeller, who just got his first call-up for Germany at age 33.dddddddddddd Ivica Olic sealed Wolfsburgs fourth straight victory with another long-range shot inside the far post, while Reus hit the post with another free kick. Dortmund striker Robert Lewandowski had two penalty calls denied in injury time and Klopp had a heated exchange with officials after the match. Wolfsburg won despite playing without the injured playmaker Diego. "We made it easy for them (Wolfsburg)," Klopp said. The most entertaining game was in Leverkusen, where the home side saw Hamburg come back to level at 2-2 before pulling away again, with Son also setting up one goal and producing a key loss of possession that led to Hamburgs third goal. The South Korea forward scored twice inside the first 16 minutes, both times with his left foot and both times after shaking off Hamburg defender Heiko Westermann. Hamburg fought back with goals from Maximilian Beister and Pierre-Michel Lasogga, before Son completed his hat trick, this time with his right foot, on a deflected pass from Stefan Kiessling. Son then set up Kiessling for Leverkusens fourth goal, before Lasogga got his brace and raised his season total to eight goals. Gonzalo Castro secured Leverkusens victory in the 89th by lobbing the ball over Hamburgs goalkeeper Rene Adler. In Gelsenkirchen, Schalke fell behind on a goal from Felix Kroos, the brother of Bayerns Toni, before Boateng turned the match around with two headers. Substitute Jefferson Farfan put the issue beyond doubt in injury time, knocking in pass from Julian Draxler. Hoffenheim overcame a two-goal deficit, only to see Ramos knock in his second goal with a header in the 84th. Anis Ben-Hatira scored early after being put through by Ramos and the Colombia forward doubled the lead by converting a penalty. Hoffenheim pulled level after Sejad Salihovic first scored from the spot and then fired a free kick into the roof of the net. Ramos was unstoppable, however, rising to score with a header. ' ' '
