Nico Rosberg admits it will take a while to recover from his disappointing result in Germany, one which sees him head into the summer break 19 points down on Lewis Hamilton.Rosbergs race unravelled from lights out, as he appeared to get bogged down at the second phase of his start and dropped from first to fourth by Turn 1. Despite a mid-race fightback Rosbergs charge was hampered by a five-second penalty and a Mercedes stopwatch failure at the subsequent stop, meaning he had to settle for fourth position behind Hamilton and the Red Bulls.?In a video message to his fans on Sunday night he tweeted with the caption Disappointed after German GP, Rosberg admitted the summer break has come at a good time as he looks to regroup and get his championship challenge back on track.My little title sums it up, everything went wrong -- it was a really crap day today, crap race, he said. Everything went wrong really. I cant be bothered to go into details now.It was amazing all the support I got, Im really thankful for that -- it was really awesome and Im really thankful for that. Im sorry I didnt get to finish it in celebrations ... but anyways, next time.Happy holidays for those of you taking some days off. Im going to enjoy them for sure, its going to be awesome -- once I recover from this day. It will take a while, but I will get there.The result means Hamilton has outscored Rosberg by 62 points since the pair collided at the Spanish Grand Prix in May. After that race, Hamilton trailed his Mercedes teammate by 43 points in the standings. Since that clash in Spain, which ended a streak of seven consecutive victories, Rosberg has won just one race.The video message can be seen in full below: Air Max 270 React Doré . 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. Air Max 270 React Winter . On Saturday night, the normally free throw-challenged centre did just that. Howard scored 18 of his 25 points in the fourth quarter, including 13 of 19 free throws in a 2 1/2-minute stretch, and the Houston Rockets beat the Denver Nuggets 122-111. http://www.airmax270reactpascher.fr/fausse-air-max-270-react-rose.html . - The Washington Redskins have cut defensive lineman Adam Carriker and punter Sav Rocca. Air Max 270 Ultramarine Solar Red . Pedro scored from a pass by Lionel Messi in the 33rd minute and added two more goals in the 47th and 72nd after Valdes saved his second penalty in four days following his stop in Wednesdays 4-0 over Ajax in the Champions League. Air Max 270 React 2020 . The All-Pro lineman got the leg bent under him while trying to make a tackle during the first half of a 22-20 overtime loss at Miami on Thursday night. The medical staff initially thought hed torn the ligament, and the test a day later in Cincinnati confirmed it. Reality already is setting in for a few teams that opened the season with playoff aspirations.No. 23 Mississippi, No. 25 Oklahoma and Notre Dame have dropped two of their first three games after each was ranked 11th or higher in the preseason Top 25 . Its the first time in nearly two decades that three teams ranked in the top 15 before the season were below .500 three games into the year.The ultimate goals likely out of reach. How will they stay motivated?If we start focusing on what happened in the last three weeks, were probably going to hit a pretty big wall here in the next nine games, Notre Dame offensive tackle Mike McGlinchey said.CBS Sports analyst Rick Neuheisel knows how challenging it is to recover.Neuheisel coached a Colorado team in 1997 that was coming off two straight top-10 finishes and opened the year ranked eighth. The Buffaloes started 2/3 that season and finished 5-6.Youve got to get up in the morning, be ready to go and put a look on your face -- not that youre angry at your team, not that youre going to punish them because they havent met expectations -- but that were resetting our expectations, were recalibrating and were going to find our way back, Neuheisel said.The last time three preseason top-15 teams were below .500 this early was 1998, when Michigan and Arizona State started 0-2 and North Carolina lost its first three games. Michigan was fifth, Arizona State eighth and North Carolina 12th in the preseason Top 25.These types of starts could become more common in the playoff era, as teams strengthen their nonconference schedules to impress the selection committee.Oklahomas two losses came against No. 9 Houston and No. 2 Ohio State . Notre Dame lost at Texas and at home to No. 8 Michigan State . Ole Miss fell to No. 13 Florida State and No. 1 Alabama after leading by three touchdowns in both games .Becoming and being relevant, I think it creates an expectation, and that expectation results in winning celebrations or disappointing losses, Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze said. Thats the two things youre going to get. Weve had our share of both,, and this year in September weve had the disappointing losses.ddddddddddddThe difficulty of bouncing back when a preseason top-15 team has fallen out of playoff contention is one reason why ESPN analyst and former Texas coach Mack Brown would rather see no polls released until mid-October.As a coach, Ive always been against early polls, because I think theyre very unfair, Brown said. We just dont know about the chemistry. You dont know whos going to be healthy through preseason camp.Brown said regrouping in this era is even tougher than before because so much focus is on which teams remain in the playoff hunt. Brown said bowl games that arent part of the playoff dont get as much attention as they received in the BCS era.You try to win your conference championship. ... That hope is still there, Brown said. There are great things that can still happen in the end if you win your conference championship.Of course, Notre Dame cant use that as incentive due to its independent status. Theyll need to find something else.We can still finish the regular season 10-2, Notre Dame wide receiver Torii Hunter Jr. said. Thats a great season. We finished the (regular) season 10-2 last year.For now, all three teams arent dwelling on their postseason possibilities and instead are focused on correcting the mistakes that got them to this point.Theres always the long-shot possibility they could get back in the playoff chase.Citing the 2007 LSU team that won the national title after losing two regular-season games, Neuheisel said somebody eventually will reach the playoff with more than one loss.There will be a day when a two-loss team will get there, (so they can say), `Why not us? Given the way were going to attack our preparation for the remainder of the season, who knows what can happen? Neuheisel said. You hold it out there as hope.---AP Sports Writers David Brandt in Oxford, Mississippi, and Tom Coyne in South Bend, Indiana, contributed to this report. ' ' '
