The Chris Williams saga is heading to court. On Thursday, the CFL Players Association announced its applying for a judicial review of an arbitrators decision that the Hamilton Tiger-Cats receivers contract was binding despite being negotiated by an unregistered agent. Williams, the CFLs top special-teams player last year, went to arbitration requesting to be released from the final year of his deal with Hamilton reportedly so he could pursue NFL offers. On June 5, arbitrator E.E. Palmer ruled the Ticats violated the CFLs collective bargaining agreement with the players union by negotiating with an unregistered agent. However, Palmer said the penalty for that was a fine and not the termination of the contract. Despite the arbitrators decision, Williams hasnt reported to the Ticats this season. The CFLPA said in a statement it believes any club negotiating with an unregistered agent is at an advantage in contract talks. The CFLPA added a judicial review is required to provide "legal clarity" prior to heading into upcoming contract talks with the league on a new collective bargaining agreement. The present deal between the CFL and CFLPA is scheduled to end prior to the start of next season. Williams signed a deal with Hamilton in 2011 that was negotiated by an agent not registered with the CFL Players Association. Williams reportedly contends he wasnt made fully aware of the conditions pertaining to his rookie contract and that Hamilton didnt offer him the one-year plus an option deal but rather just the two-year plus an option. "In negotiating a players rookie contract it is especially critical that CFL clubs ensure that they are dealing with a registered agent as required by the CBA to ensure that the players rights are protected and that a final contract is in the players best interests," the CFLPA said in a statement. "An agent who is registered with the CFLPA must have a solid understanding of the CBA, the CFL standard player contract, and CFL salaries. "In order to be a registered agent, the individual must provide evidence of that knowledge by successfully completing a CFLPA administered test. This knowledge allows the agent to provide appropriate guidance to CFL players as they negotiate with respective CFL clubs." The CFLPA added it has no further comment regarding the Williams case. A CFL spokesman requesting anonymity said the league supports the Ticats and the decision of the arbitrator, but added it would have no further comment regarding the Williams case. In a statement, the Ticats expressed their disappointment with the situation. "Our collective bargaining agreement with the CFLPA agrees that matters of disagreement be decided by binding arbitration," the CFL club said. "While we are disappointed to read of the unwillingness to accept arbitrator Palmers binding decision, we respect their right to use any and all legal options available to them. "We have made a number of attempts to resolve the matter with Chris and his agent but unfortunately he has chosen not to return to play for Hamilton and honour the remaining year of his contract. Since Chris and the CFLPA have now decided to pursue a judicial review of the arbitrators decision, we have no choice but to let this matter be decided by the court." According to a CFL source, Williams was scheduled to earn a 2013 base salary of $48,000. That pales in comparison to both the NFLs minimum salary, which is US$405,000 this year, or the roughly $90,000 players south of the border can earn annually on the practice roster. Williams had a Ticats-record 17 TDs last season, including a CFL-record six on kick returns. The five-foot-eight, 175-pound Williams was named the CFLs top rookie in 2011 after registering 70 receptions for 1,064 yards and six TDs. He also had 12 kickoff returns for 252 yards and a touchdown while returning 12 punts for 81 yards. Williams was even better last season, with 83 catches for 1,298 yards and 11 TDs. He also led the CFL in punt returns with 78 for 1,117 yards and five touchdowns while adding five missed field goal returns for 256 yards and a TD. Williams played his college football at New Mexico State and joined the NFLs Miami Dolphins as an undrafted free agent in 2009 but was released with an injury settlement prior to the start of the season. He signed with the Cleveland Browns later in the year and spent time on the practice roster before being let go. http://www.cowboysrookieproshop.com/T-Shirts/ .C. -- Rodney Hood connected from all over the court while freshman Jabari Parker was busy swatting shots and scoring in transition. http://www.cowboysrookieproshop.com/Cowboys-Damontre-Moore-Jersey/ .Y. -- Leading 3-0 with only 11:25 left, the Colorado Avalanche committed a seemingly meaningless penalty to give the New York Islanders a power play. http://www.cowboysrookieproshop.com/Cowboys-Jeff-Heath-Jersey/ .

They had already blown a double-digit lead, fans were hitting the exits, and a long seven-game road trip waited at the end. PITTSBURGH -- For Russell Martin, it was all about staying positive. The Pittsburgh Pirates catcher remained optimistic when the Detroit Tigers were seemingly putting runners on base in every inning. And he was still looking on the bright side when he stepped to the plate with a chance to win the game despite having already struck out three times. Martin hit a bases-loaded single off the left-centre wall in the bottom of the 11th inning to give the Pirates a 1-0 victory over the Tigers on Thursday night. "Youve got to believe you can do it," Martin said. "If you think youre going to fail then youre probably going to fail. Its all a matter of having a positive attitude and believing in yourself. Our whole team is like that right now." Neil Walker opened the inning with a sharp single to right off Luke Putkonen (1-1) and Andrew McCutchen walked. Gaby Sanchez loaded the bases by bouncing a single through the left side of the infield. Martin then ripped a 2-1 pitch into the gap to give the Pirates (34-20) their 16th win in 20 games. Martin came into the game having gone 4 for 29 in his previous eight games. However, he singled in the ninth inning and wound up with a multi-hit game. "The great thing about Russell is he never takes his offence behind the plate," Pittsburgh manager Clint Hurdle said "He struck out his first three times up tonight yet he went right back behind the plate and it was all about the pitcher. Thats why it was so good to see him come through at the end." The Tigers left 11 runners on base in losing their third straight. "Baseball is always a hard game and tonight it was really hard," Detroit manager Jim Leyland said. "Thats what I always say, on-base percentage is great but the biggest thing is you need to drive those guys on base in. We had a hard time with that tonight. Weve had a hard time with that the last few days. Detroit was shut out by the Pirates for the second time in three days as Jeff Locke and five relievers combined on a nine-hitter. Bryan Morris (3-2) pitched a scoreless inning to finish. "You know how good the Tigers offence is, one of the best in baseball," Walker said. "You feel like youre playing with a ticking time bomb when they dont score but you cant give enough credit to our pitching staff. They got so many big outs in this game." Detroit starter Doug Fister struck out 12 in seven innings and allowed four hits. Miguel Cabrera hit two doubles for the Tigers, including the 400th of his career. Fister came in with a 5.20 ERA in five May starts after going 4-0 with a 2.38 ERA in five starts in April. "I felt like I was executing well," Fister said. "I was able to keep the ball down, move the ball in and out and make them hit the ball on the ground, which is the name of my game.dddddddddddd." Both teams failed to cash in on consecutive outstanding scoring opportunities in the middle innings. Pittsburgh hit three singles in a row to start the fourth and Detroit had four consecutive singles to start the fifth. Walker led off the Pirates fourth with a single but was caught stealing at second base. McCutchen and Garrett Jones then singled to put runners on the corners but were stranded when Martin struck out and Travis Snider lined out. In the Tigers fifth, Matt Tuiasosopo and Bryan Pena hit back-to-back singles but Tuiasosopo was thrown out at home by Snider, the right fielder, while trying to score on Avasail Garcias single. Fister then singled to load the bases, but Omar Infante hit a grounder to third baseman Brandon Inge, who threw home to force Pena for the second out. Andy Dirks grounded out to end the inning, leaving the bases loaded. Detroit missed more chances. The Tigers had runners on first and second with one out in the sixth when Vin Mazzaro relieved Locke and struck out Tuiasosopo and got Pena to ground out. Mazzaro escaped a first-and-third jam with one out in the seventh by getting Dirks to pop out and Cabrera to ground out. After Infante doubled with two outs in the ninth, McCutchen, the centre fielder, tracked down Dirks drive to the gap in right-centre to end the inning. "It goes back to the staples of pitching weve been talking about since the start of spring training," Hurdle said. "Have intent with every pitch and have conviction with every pitch and execution will follow. Our guys really executed and we were able to hold a very good team off the board for 11 innings, which is something we can feel good about."
