JOHANNESBURG -- A South African judge on Friday dismissed an appeal by prosecutors for a harsher sentence against Oscar Pistorius, who was found guilty of murder for killing his girlfriend in 2013.Judge Thokozile Masipa said the states appeal to extend the six-year sentence against the 29-year-old double amputee Olympic sprinter had a limited prospect of success.I am not persuaded that there are reasonable prospects of success for an appeal, she said in the South Gauteng High Court in Johannesburg.Pistorius shot Reeva Steenkamp, 29, in the early-morning hours of Feb. 14, 2013. He claimed he thought she was an intruder. The state charged that he shot her in anger after an argument. Pistorius was found guilty of murder and sentenced by Masipa to six years in prison.The sentence was described as shockingly lenient, prosecutor Gerrie Nel said Friday, adding that the judge should have used a 15-year minimum sentence as a starting point because Steenkamp had suffered a horrendous death.Pistorius never offered an acceptable explanation for having fired four shots through the toilet door, Nel said.The fact that Pistorius fired four shots using hollow-point bullets that are designed to inflict maximum damage meant the possibility of death was more likely and should have been an aggravating factor, Nel said.The state may appeal Masipas decision at the Supreme Court of Appeals in the city of Bloemfontein, but has yet to indicate whether it will do so.Chuck Howley Cowboys Jersey . -- Former San Diego Chargers safety Paul Oliver was found dead at his Atlanta-area home Tuesday night, and a medical examiner said Wednesday that the ex-player committed suicide.

He withdrew as a precautionary measure, read a statement from Days management team.It is the same back injury that forced Day, the worlds No. 1-ranked player, to withdraw from the BMW Championship two weeks ago.I put the tee in the ground at the BMW Championship, and my back went out, Day explained earlier this week. Last time it went out, I changed a diaper. So its nothing where I go and physically make a move at it during a swing and my back goes out. It literally is from the smallest things -- picking up a pillow, picking up something off the ground, or just moving the wrong way.Day was playing the eighth hole at East Lake Golf Club when he withdrew on Friday. After hitting his drive into the water, he took a drop, tthen hit driver off the deck before calling for medical attention and leaving the course.ddddddddddddAs the fourth-ranked player in the FedEx Cup, Day could have earned the season-long title and $10 million first-place prize with a victory this week. He will remain the games top-ranked player, no matter what, despite second-ranked Dustin Johnson?being in contention heading into the weekend rounds.If theres a silver lining to Days timing, its that he wasnt expected to tee it up competitively again for at least two months. The next two events on his schedule are believed to be the Australian Open (Nov. 17-20), followed by the World Cup of Golf (Nov. 24-27), both in his native Australia.His 2016-17 season officially concludes with victories at the Arnold Palmer Invitational, WGC-Dell Match Play and The Players Championship.
