FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- In his first public comments since his return from a four-game NFL suspension, New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady confirmed his presence at Gillette Stadium on Monday while looking ahead to his first regular-season action Sunday at the Cleveland Browns.It was great to be back in the building. It was certainly great to be back to work, Brady said during his weekly interview on Westwood One. Its been a long four weeks for me, but Im excited to get started on my preparation for Cleveland. Im anxious for the week ahead. I want to get back out on the practice field. This is what I love to do, and now I have an opportunity to do it.Earlier Monday, several of Bradys teammates said they hadnt seen him, which was part of a team-wide theme that the quarterbacks return couldnt be viewed as a cure-all for the Patriots disappointing performance in Sundays 16-0 loss to the Buffalo Bills.Teammates stressed that while it is great to have Brady returning to the team, they all had to focus on individual improvement. That was also a theme Brady focused on for himself during his Westwood One interview.Im going to take it day to day. I havent played in four weeks, he told host Jim Gray when asked his expectations for his NFL return. My teammates have been working their butts off, and thats what they expect of me. Ill take the days as they come. Ill certainly need the practices to try to get on the [same] page as all the guys who have been practicing the last four weeks. But Im really looking forward to it.So, too, are his teammates.Were obviously thrilled to have him back. We know what type of player hes been for this team, the type of leader hes been, but all that being said, we still have a job to do with him here now, special-teams captain Matthew Slater said. Were excited to have Thomas back, but our responsibility and our jobs are still the same. ... Everybody has to do better. I dont think we were good enough in anything we did yesterday, and Buffalo was clearly the better team, and they outplayed us.Not long before Brady returned to work, the NFL Players Association announced that it would no longer pursue legal options against the NFL over Deflategate, a topic Brady wasnt interested in delving into Monday night.Im not really looking to reflect at this point. I put that in the rearview mirror when I decided a while ago [to not appeal], Brady said on Westwood One. Im looking forward to playing and doing what I love to do and being out there with my teammates, who have done such a great job. And I want to do a great job for them.Im just focused on the present, focused on this week, and thats what Im going to be all season. Its certainly all in the past, and hopefully it serves me well this week.The Patriots (3-1) visit the Browns (0-4) on Sunday, with Cleveland coach Hue Jackson saying earlier Monday that the prospect of facing Brady in his return was not fun at all.As for Bradys feelings, he was asked how angry he was about what unfolded and whether the chip on his shoulder from slipping to the sixth round of the 2000 draft has grown even larger because of the NFLs suspension.I was motivated 17 years ago, and Im motivated today, so Im motivated to win for my teammates, and Im motivated to go out there and represent our city well, he said.Brady stopped short when asked if the suspension has brought the fan base, city and team together.That remains to be seen, he said. We have a great fan base, and I have great teammates. I love the guys that I play with. They supported me for so long, and I support everything in what theyre trying to accomplish and certainly what were trying to accomplish as a team. I love playing in New England, and I want to go out there this week and make them all proud.

Jonathan Ogden Ravens Jersey . -- Sergey Tolchinksy scored his second goal of the game 3:56 into overtime as the Sault Ste. New South Wales 225 (Patterson 55, Tremain 4-22, Boland 3-51) and 1 for 39 need another 352 runs to beat Victoria 6 for 510 dec and 2 for 105 dec (Harris 62*)Scorecard Chris Tremain and Scott Boland led a strong Victorian bowling display on the third day at the SCG, which left New South Wales with an enormous final-day task to avoid defeat. Test aspirant Kurtis Patterson top scored in the first New South Wales innings with 55, but neither Nic Maddinson nor Peter Nevill made significant batting contributions, and by stumps David Warner had fallen cheaply for the second time in the match.Another concern for Australias selectors ahead of naming their Test squad on Sunday was the continued wicket drought of Nathan Lyon, who picked up 0 for 32 from seven overs in Victorias second innings and finished with match figures of 0 for 173. Having also gone wicketless in Australias past two Test innings, Lyon has now bowled 582 first-class deliveries since he last made a breakthrough.The Blues resumed on 2 for 95 in their first innings and quickly lost opener Daniel Hughes, who failed to add to his overnight score and was bowled by Jon HHolland for 42.dddddddddddd Patterson reached his half-century but fell soon afterwards, bowled by Holland for 55, and Tremain then caused middle-order problems by bowling Maddinson for 6 and trapping Moises Henriques lbw for 2.Nevill, under some pressure to hold his place in the Test side, batted 61 balls for his 26 before he was bowled by Daniel Christian. Tremain finished with the outstanding figures of 4 for 22 from 18 overs and Boland picked up 3 for 51 as New South Wales were bowled out for 225. Victorias captain Matthew Wade did not enforce the follow-on despite holding a 285-run first-innings advantage.The Victorians added a quick 105 for the loss of two wickets - Steve OKeefe claimed them both, and Marcus Harris finished on 62 not out - before Wade declared and set New South Wales 391 for victory. Tremain bowled David Warner late in the day for 20 and then struck Lyon, sent in as nightwatchman, on the arm in the final over. The Blues finished at 1 for 39, with Lyon on 2 and Hughes on 17. ' ' '
