BEREA, Ohio -- Cleveland Browns wide receiver Donte Stallworth, suspended indefinitely for killing a pedestrian while driving drunk, met in New York with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell about a possible reinstatement, according to media reports. Baltimore Ravens Lardarius Webb Jersey . Stallworth was recently released from jail after serving 24 days for a DUI conviction. Miamis WPLG-TV first reported Stallworths meeting with Goodell. ESPN.com and The Plain Dealer, both citing unnamed sources, also said the meeting took place. NFL spokesman Greg Aiello would not confirm the meeting or give any timetable on a possible decision by Goodell. "We do not comment on the details of the review process," Aiello said in an e-mail response. "So we decline to comment on the report of a meeting today. When a decision is made, we will announce it." Browns coach Eric Mangini declined to comment Wednesday on Stallworths status, saying it was a "league matter" and that the team would address it at the proper time. Stallworth pleaded guilty to DUI manslaughter in the death of 59-year-old Mario Reyes of Miami. Stallworth admitted drinking at a Miami Beach hotel before the accident. He reached an undisclosed financial settlement with Reyes family, which factored into his relatively light sentence. Stallworth signed a seven-year, US$35 million contract with the Browns before last season but was injured much of the year. Green Bay Packers Rodgers Jersey .

Tweet CALGARY -- Some critics might say the novelty of the outdoor hockey game has worn off. Defenseman Josh Gorges doesnt agree. The 25-year-old native of Kelowna, B.C., could not have been more enthusiastic about the prospect of taking part in the 2011 Heritage Classic between his Montreal Canadiens and the Calgary Flames at McMahon Stadium on Feb. 20. Gorges hasnt been able to get enough of the Winter Classics, so its a dream come true for him to get a chance to take part in Canadas version of outdoor NHL hockey. "I think its unbelievable. I dont think Ive missed one. When theyre on, you watch them," Gorges said Wednesday during a news conference at the stadium. "After watching them, you say, That would be fun to play in. Only a select few players get a chance to be apart of it. I think for all of us to be here, its special. You never know if youll get a chance to do this again, at this level, at this magnitude, so we want to embrace it, have fun with it." The Canadiens took part in the only other outdoor NHL game played in Canada, beating the Oilers in Edmontons Commonwealth Stadium in November 2003. Gorges was only 19 at the time, but his eyes lit up when he began thinking back to seeing that game on TV. "I know growing up watching that game, you watch it and you want to be apart of it," Gorges said. "Im thankful to be here today and knowing Im going to be apart of it this year, its very exciting. I know talking with a lot of guys on the team, were very excited to be there." Gorges said there are a few other Western Canadian players on the Canadiens -- Ryan OByrne (Victoria, B.C.), Carey Price (Anahim Lake, B.C.) and Travis Moen (Swift Current, Sask.) -- who are also excited not only about playing outdoors, but being able to do so close to where they grew up. "Obviously a chance to play in front of this many fans in Calgary whhere hockey is so big, its thrilling for any sports fan, any sports player -- but also from being out West, itll be easy for our family to come and check out the game," Gorges said. Rocky Bleier Jersey. "From growing up in Western Canada, you couldnt ask for nothing more than to play outside in Calgary. This is great. "Talking to those guys and having it so close to home, all our friends and family can make the easy trip down, I think its great for us." Gorges biggest problem might be getting tickets for everyone who will no doubt want to attend the historic game. "Thats what Im worried about," Gorges said with a laugh. "It might be a few too many. Ill put a few on COD maybe." During the news conference, a video montage of past outdoor games was played on the big board at McMahon Stadium. Youll be hard-pressed to find a Canadian player who didnt grow up playing outside, and Gorges is no different. "As kids, we grow up playing outdoors. Watching that video before, you get shivers just watching it," Gorges said. "Knowing that youre going to get a chance to step out there and be apart of that, I dont know that theres anything better." For all of the excitement Gorges has for Heritage Classic -- and who could blame him -- that energy will eventually need to be channeled into playing a regular-season hockey game with two points on the line. "I think up until the drop of the puck, itll be a lot of excitement and people talking about the buzz of what its like to play in a Heritage Classic game," Gorges said. "I think once the puck drops and the game starts, Im sure all that gets thrown out the window and its just another hockey game. Well want to go out there and win just bad as they will. I think theres still that rivalry between Montreal and Calgary, both very proud, I think the intensity level will be high when the puck drops." Follow Dave Lozo on Twitter: @DaveLozo ' ' '
