GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Carson Palmer says there was no hesitation when he was approached by the Arizona Cardinals about a contract extension in what he calls a dream situation to finish his career.The 36-year-old quarterback and nine-time Pro Bowl wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald each agreed to one-year extensions last Friday.Im so happy to finish my career here, Palmer said, and know this is where it ends.The deal, with $14 million guaranteed, puts Palmer under contract through the 2018 season. He will be 39 before that deal expires. Fitzgerald is under contract through 2017.Palmer made his first comments on the extension Tuesday at his weekly training camp news conference. He said the Cardinals approached him about making some contractual changes to put the team in a better position on payroll in coming years. He was all for it.Ive been playing my whole career, Palmer said, to be in a situation like this and play for an owner (Michael Bidwill) like this and a GM (Steve Keim) like this.Palmer is coming off probably his best NFL season, setting personal and franchise records in yards passing, touchdowns and quarterback rating while leading the team to a 13-3 record and the NFL West title. Palmer got his first playoff victory in the wild overtime win over Green Bay, but he and his teammates were awful in a one-sided loss at Carolina in the NFC championship game.Palmer lavished praise on a Cardinals organization that a decade ago was considered one of the worst in the NFL. Now, with its state-of-the-art stadium, a coach bursting with personality and ability and a roster loaded with talent, Arizona is one of the preseason favorites.Its a dream situation, Palmer said, having the opportunity to play for a head coach like Bruce (Arians) but also a play-caller like Bruce. Michaels given everybody in the locker room everything you could possibly need to go out and just focus on football and play good football.Things were not always so cozy between Palmer and team ownership. The No. 1 overall draft pick out of USC in 2003, he forced a trade out of Cincinnati in 2011.Then came two years of losing in Oakland before the Cardinals, with Arians just hired, acquired Palmer from the Raiders.The team has won 10, 11 and 13 games in Palmers three seasons.Palmer was asked if the extension extended his window of opportunity.I dont see a window, he said. I thought last years team was really, really good until we started working on OTAs (this year), and then we got to training camp and you could see how much better this team is than last year. ...I dont see a window, I just see opportunity.Game notes Arians was unhappy with the mental errors and penalties the teams committed in practice Monday and blamed the teams leaders. He said its the first time thats happened this year all the way from OTAs through the early days of training camp. ... Arians said Earl Watford, the backup all along the offensive line, missed practice Tuesday with a bruised knee.---Online: AP NFL websites: http://pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL Cheap Magic Jerseys . The 29-year-old Baines has established himself as one of the top attacking full backs in the country and was the subject of two bids from United during the last off-season. Everton manager Roberto Martinez says that keeping Baines at the club is a "massive boost and exciting for the future" because he brings "maturity and football knowledge in a very specialized position on the pitch" and an "infectious and positive influence to the rest of the squad.

It is a cliché dragged out by fans and pundits regularly when discussions take place around which teams are better than others. Penny Hardaway Jersey Large . Anthony Davis had 31 points and 17 rebounds in his seventh straight game with more than 20 points, but that was only enough to keep the Pelicans competitive into the final minutes. Andrew Bogut had 10 points and 15 rebounds for Golden State, which rebounded from a loss a night earlier in Oklahoma City and snapped a two-game skid. Custom Magic Jersey China . Bradwell was scheduled to become a free agent Tuesday. Born and raised in Toronto, Bradwell is entering his sixth CFL season, with all six played for his hometown Argonauts. MADRID -- Sergio Ramos only contribution to Spain in a World Cup qualifier this weekend will be a pep talk to his teammates.Ramos visited the teams training camp this week ahead of Saturdays match against Macedonia, but the captain wont be on the field in the southern city of Granada because of an injury -- one of the many players missing as Spain tries to defend its Group G lead in European qualifying.Spain coach Julen Lopetegui also wont be able to count on playmaker Andres Iniesta, striker Diego Costa, defender Gerard Pique, left back Jordi Alba and defensive midfielder Javi Martinez.Costa was the latest to be dropped from the squad on Thursday, being released because of a thigh injury that had kept him from practicing with the rest of the squad during the week. Celta Vigo forward Iago Aspas was named as his replacement, joining the national team for the first time.We are going to try to turn difficulties into opportunities, Lopetegui said. We cant lament anything. Im happy with the players that we called up, and they are going to help us achieve victory in both matches.Three days after hosting Macedonia, Spain will play a friendly against England at Wembley Stadium.Lopetegui will have to work extra hard to set up his defense, which is not used to being without veteran central defenders Ramos and Pique at the same time. Ramos is nursing a left knee injury, while Pique is recovering from sprained ligaments in his right ankle.Weve had to restructure the defense the best way possible, Lopetegui said, not dismissing the possibility of having to improvise with right back Cesar Azpilicueta at center back.The Chelsea player has played in the position in tthe past.ddddddddddddther options for Lopetegui include Real Madrids Nacho Fernandez, Real Sociedads Inigo Martinez, Sevillas Sergio Escudero and Borussia Dortmunds Marc Bartra.With Costa not playing up front, Alvaro Morata and Aritz Aduriz should get a chance to perform alongside each other in the lineup. Other forwards in the squad include Lucas Vazquez, Manuel Nolito Agudo, Jose Callejon and Victor Vitolo Machin.Its great to have so many options, said Aduriz, who was called up after scoring five goals in an Athletic Bilbao win in the Europa League last week. We are all here to help.At midfield, it will be difficult to substitute for Iniesta, who has been sidelined because of right knee injury. Among the options available for Lopetegui are Juan Mata, Thiago Alcantara and Jorge Koke Resurreccion.Some important players couldnt come because of injuries, but that creates an opportunity to those who are here, reserve goalkeeper Sergio Asenjo said.Spain and Italy have seven points each after three games in Group G, with the Spaniards ahead on goal difference. Albania and Israel are one point behind, while Macedonia and Liechtenstein have yet to earn points.Italy plays at Lichtenstein the same day that Spain hosts Macedonia.Only the group winner automatically secures a spot for the World Cup in Russia. The second-place team must go through a playoff to try to make it to the 2018 tournament.Spain is coming off a 2-0 win at Albania. Italy and Spain drew 1-1 in Turin in October.---Tales Azzoni on Twitter: http://twitter.com/tazzoni ' ' '
