LOUDON, N. Cheap Vapormax China .H. -- About five minutes after he stepped out of the Dale Earnhardt Jr. car following qualifying Friday at New Hampshire Motor Speedway, Alex Bowman received a phone call.It was team owner Rick Hendrick on the line. Bowman, who had a respectable qualifying effort and will start 20th on Sunday in the New Hampshire 301, thanked Hendrick for the opportunity to get into Earnhardts car this weekend while Earnhardt is treated for concussion-like symptoms.Thats the first time Ive [ever] talked to him, Bowman, 23, said after hanging up the phone. It makes me feel really good that they trust me to come do this. ... If this is the only time to drive a Hendrick Cup car, how many people get to say they got a call to drive the 88 car?It means a lot to me. Hopefully it goes really well and I open some eyes. If not, then Im still really thankful to be here.Bowman, who drives part-time in the Xfinity Series for Earnhardt and Hendrick at JR Motorsports, said he had shaken Hendricks hand in the past. The phone call was one of the many highlights for Bowman on Friday, when he received more attention than teammate Jimmie Johnson, who won the pole for the race.This many people have never taken this many pictures of me in my entire life, no matter what Ive done, Bowman said. Its been pretty incredible. Its not the situation or circumstances Ive wanted it to be under, but its the best opportunity Ive ever had in my life.I have to make the most of it and not make any mistakes.Bowmans substitute role might last only one race. Jeff Gordon will step into the car next week at Indianapolis Motor Speedway if Earnhardt is not cleared to race. Hendrick Motorsports general manager Doug Duchardt would not speculate on drivers beyond that, nor would he say when Earnhardt could possibly return.So Bowman is in the position of trying not to be Superman but to show his ability. He spent the 2014 and 2015 seasons driving for the underfunded BK Racing and Tommy Baldwin Racing teams. He has a career best of 13th in 71 career Cup starts.[Earnhardt] has done a lot for my career, and I couldnt be any more thankful than I am, Bowman said. I owe him a lot. Its just been an honor to get the phone call to fill in for him.Bowman knows the odds are stacked against him for having a breakout moment Sunday. He has not driven a Sprint Cup car this year, with his laps Friday being his first in the 2016 low-downforce package. The Hendrick team also has been struggling as a whole, and the flat one-mile track isnt Bowmans best.We about melted a hole in the race track last year with the [car] burning to the ground on fire, Bowman said. Hopefully we have a better day than that. Cheeap Vapormax Online . Bryzgalov stopped 25 shots on Saturday in the Oklahoma City Barons 4-1 victory over the Abbotsford Heat.

Joe Joyce believes he did enough to win boxing gold after losing his super-heavyweight final to Tony Yoka at Riocentro.The 30-year-old fell short in his bid to become Great Britains 28th and final gold medallist of the Rio Olympics, with the?ringside judges favouring the Frenchman by split decision.The judges verdict was greeted by a number of boos from the crowd.?I thought that gold was mine, Joyce told the BBC afterwards. So Ill just have to watch it back and see where I went wrong, if I went wrong.Yokas greater accuracy found the favour of the judges, leaving Joyce with little hope in the last round but to press for an unlikely knockout.Joyce had been seeking to emulate his former team-mate Anthony Joshua, the London 2012 champion who was watching at ringside.Lee [Team GB coach Lee Pullen] let me know in my corner I was down. I thought, Oh my god, added Joyce. I was landing shots on him all that last round, peppering him with shots, going through his guard. Just the odd shot from him. He nicked it.I gave it my all. I got the training right leading up. Im just disappointed. A silver medal isnt that bad, but I wanted the gold. I expected the gold. It just wasnt to be.Joshua, working in a punditry role for the BBC in Rio, also felt Joyce did enough to take the gold medal.Ive never seen a lightweight, let alone a heavyweight, throw so many punches in a fight before, he?said.Joe was aggressive, making the fight.

In spirit hes Olympic champion.?Im proud of what hes achieved. Hes a credit to the sport in and out of the ring.Joyces style had been derided by Yoka in the build-up to the final, with the Frenchman describing him as a robot and questioning his punching power.The pair had unfinished business after a controversial World Championship semifinal in Doha last year, when Yoka was given the verdict and went on to win the title.Joyce was the aggressor in the opener, landing first with a nice right hand, and pushing forward looking to squeeze shots through his opponents tight guard.The heavier shots continued to come in from the Briton, but Yoka enjoyed persistent success behind his left jab, which was enough to shade it on two of the three judges cards.Joyce continued his relentless push forward in the second, with Yoka a little looser and relying more on snaking counter-shots, again catching the judges eyes.It effectively meant Joyce needed a knockout to win the last, and despite his best efforts Yoka survived to take the victory on two of the three judges cards.Information from the Press Association was
