An angry Queensland claim Paul Gallens post-match snub has inspired them to extend their State of Origin dominance.The Marns could barely control their rage over retiring skipper Gallen turning his back and leading NSW away during Queensland captain Cameron Smiths speech after the Blues 18-14 game three win on Wednesday night.After raising the Origin trophy to mark Queenslands 10th series win in 11 years, Smith was paying tribute to Gallen while the seemingly-oblivious NSW captain walked off.It was a bad lk after Gallen had criticised Queensland for being bad winners ahead of his 24th and final Origin.Queensland playmaker Johnathan Thurston said the snub had put a fire in the belly for 2017.Yeah, no doubt about it, he said.I dont want to get into a slanging match here but it was pretty disrespectful.I think that typifies what that team is about.Gallen did not help his cause when asked about the incident, saying he didnt even notice Smiths post-match ceremony speech.Smith was clearly not impressed after also accepting the Wally Lewis Medal as player of the series.Its something our team wouldnt do, he said.Smith said Queensland made a point of staying on the field during Gallens post-match victory speech after NSWs rare series win in 2014 which snapped eight straight years of Marns dominance.We didnt walk away. We made a point of staying there for Pauls speech and him lifting the shield and congratulating their victory, he said.Thats what we are about.Queensland great Gorden Tallis compared Gallens snub with the Blues now infamous post-try celebrations during their 56-16 game three win in 2000.The greatest thing is thats our motivation for next year, Tallis told Triple M radio.There was the hand grenade (try celebration) 10 or so years ago and now theres that.They just keep on motivating the squad every year.Smith said he wouldnt lose t much sleep over Gallens bad winners tag.Gals been involved in the boxing game and its that showmanship really, trying to pump up the series and he does a gd job at it, he said.I think we have been gracious and humble with our victories, same when we lost in 2014.Gal can say whatever he wants. We are comfortable in our skin.The Marns were denied a fifth series whitewash by NSWs last-gasp game three win.But Smith couldnt see Queenslands winning run ending any time sn based on their game three effort where they were on the wrong end of a 12-4 penalty count.I think we can continue our dominance, based on the team that we have got, he said.What team has a right to be in a game with that penalty count against them?I dont think I have ever been in a game with a count like that, let alone a State of Origin.Thurston added: In the end Queensland got the shield and we will have it for another 12 months.I am very proud of this teams dominance.

Dallas hasnt ruled out the star quarterback for Sunday nights game against Philadelphia, but all signs point to Romos back injury pushing Kyle Orton into the starting role after two years of limited play as the backup. Surely Ortons name isnt the first that comes to mind for fans wanting a change after years of damaging interceptions, fumbles or, most infamously, the field goal flub when Romo dropped the snap on a kick that could have won his first playoff game in 2006.

Phil Mickelson shot a bogey-free, final-round 65 at The Open Championship earlier this month only to be beaten by Henrik Stensons 63 in an epic showdown. The tournament at Royal Trn?will be remembered for the incredible duel rather than anything Mickelson could have done differently.But the outcome was the 11th time Lefty has finished runner-up in a major championship, surpassing the 10 second-place finishes by Arnold Palmer. Only Jack Nicklaus, who was second on 19 occasions (but also won 18 times), has more runner-up finishes in majors.The PGA Championship takes place this week at Baltusrol Golf Club, site of Mickelsons 2005 PGA victory -- one of five major titles for the World Golf Hall of Famer. Lets lk at how close he came to adding to that total, ranking his runner-up finishes from easiest to swallow to the most excruciating.11. Masters, 2015. Winner: Jordan Spieth?by 4.Mickelson was never really in this one at Augusta National, as he trailed Spieth by six after the first round and by eight through 36 holes. He made up a little ground during the third round to stand five back going into the last day, but he would have needed a final-round 65 to tie on a day Spieth tied the tournament scoring record.10. U.S. Open, 2002. Winner: Tiger Wds?by 3.This goes down as one of Mickelsons six runner-up finishes at the U.S. Open, but it is hardly one that Phil laments most. He was two strokes better than Wds during the final round at Bethpage Black but still came up three shots short. Having been five back at the start of the day was tough enough, but overcoming Wds -- who led the whole way -- was just not feasible.9. U.S. Open, 2009. Winner: Lucas Glover?by 2.An eagle at the 13th hole during a weather-delayed Monday finish at Bethpage Black had Mickelson tied for the lead and the New York Phil supporters buzzing. But Mickelson let a couple of putts get away from him over the closing holes, including a short birdie try at the 14th and a missed 3-fter at the 15th. His final-round 70 left him two back of Glover, who finished with a 73.8. The Open, 2011. Winner: Darren Clarke?by 3.Mickelson was five strokes behind to start the final round at Royal St. Georges but shot a front-nine 30 that included an eagle at No. 7. He had 10 consecutive one-putts to start the round but then blew a short one at the 11th and was never the same, fading with a couple of bogeys when pars might have brought a different ending. He ended up tied with Dustin Johnson, who also had some shots to second-guess over the closing nine.7. PGA Championship, 2014. Winner: Rory McIlroy?by 1.Mickelson was right there on the back nine at Valhalla when he let a drive get away from him on the 16th hole, leading to a bogey that proved t much to overcome. He almost holed an eagle pitch shot in near darkness on the par-5 18th to make it interesting, but McIlroys par on the last was gd enough to relegate Mickelson to another close call.6. U.S. Open, 2004. Winner: Retief Gsen?by?2.Mickelson charged into contention with three birdies in four holes on Shinnecock Hills brutal back nine to take a one-shot lead over Gsen with two holes to play.dddddddddddd But Gsen, playing after Mickelson in the final twosome, finished with birdie, par, par. Mickelson, meanwhile, couldnt avoid a bunker at the par-3 17th, blasted long and then three-putted for a double-bogey. He and Gsen were the only players to finish the tournament under par.5. U.S. Open, 1999. Winner: Payne Stewart by 1.This was Mickelsons first runner-up in a major, a memorable one where Stewart holed a 15-fter for par on the 18th green of Pinehurst No. 2 to win his second U.S. Open just a few months before his tragic death. Mickelson, who was famously awaiting the birth of his first child (she would be born the next day), missed an 8-fter for birdie on the 17th hole, where Stewart made his putt to take a one-shot lead.4. PGA Championship, 2001. Winner: David Toms?by 1.Much like at Royal Trn, Mickelson did just about all he could do at Atlanta Athletic Club. His score would have won every other PGA Championship contested in stroke play, but Toms did him one better, getting up and down with a wedge shot from the fairway at the last hole to hold off Mickelson.3. The Open, 2016. Winner: Henrik Stenson by 3.Mickelson played the round of his life on Sunday -- a 65 with four birdies, an eagle and no bogeys -- only to be outplayed. Stenson shot 63, tying the record for lowest closing round by a major champion, and made 10 birdies at Royal Trn. Mickelson finished 11 shots ahead of third-place J.B. Holmes. What more could he do?2. U.S. Open, 2006. Winner: Geoff Ogilvy?by 1.Mickelson claims this is not the most excruciating of his close calls, mostly because he felt fortunate to even have a chance. He hit just two fairways during the final round at Winged Ft, and given that, it is remarkable he came to the 72nd hole with a one-shot lead. But it meant he was just one par away from victory, and naturally Mickelson missed the fairway well to the left, hitting a hospitality tent. But thats where his real mistake occurred. Mickelson could have punched the ball around a tree and down the fairway, setting up an up-and-down par to win or a bogey to force a playoff. Instead he went for glory and got burned, leading to his infamous double-bogey and quote: Im such an idiot.1. U.S. Open, 2013. Winner: Justin Rose?by 2.This is the one Mickelson calls the hardest to take. He led at Merion after each of the first three rounds and seemed poised to finally get his first U.S. Open, especially after holing a shot for eagle on No. 10. But he also made a couple of costly mistakes, including double-bogeys at the third and fifth holes. He missed the 15th green with a wedge, leading to another bogey. Mickelson bogeyed No. 18 when he was going all out for a birdie, but the tournament was lost prior to then. ' ' '
