GLENDALE, Ariz. -- New Orleans?running back Mark Ingram said he needs to control my emotions better after he was caught by TV cameras on Sunday shouting at Saints coach Sean Payton and throwing a fit on the sideline.Ingram appeared to be upset that he was pulled from the game just before fellow running back Tim Hightower scored on a 2-yard touchdown run late in the Saints 48-41 victory over the Arizona Cardinals.Im real competitive in everything I do, man, said Ingram, though he wouldnt specifically confirm whether the lack of a scoring opportunity is what set him off. So I gotta be smarter, gotta control my emotions better. But we had a great win as a team, and thats our No. 1 goal, and thats what Im happy for -- that were bringing a win back to New Orleans.Payton declined to answer questions about Ingrams outburst after the game.Ingram had 17 carries for 78 yards (a 4.6 average) and two catches for 14 yards in the Saints win. But he had zero touchdowns, while Hightower scored twice on goal-line runs in the fourth quarter.Ingram doesnt have any specific contract incentives for touchdowns scored.Payton appeared to be trying to calm Ingram, putting his hand on his shoulder while Ingram was shouting, but the running back didnt cool down immediately. Ingram credited Payton and teammates for encouraging him.Coach is real cool. Hes very understandable, said Ingram, who didnt specify what Payton told him. Everybody calmed me down, man -- a number of teammates, a number of coaches. Thats what a familys about, thats what a team is. A team is a family. And I appreciate all those guys for being there for me and also being understanding.Ingram has had similar moments of visible emotion and frustration in the past -- especially earlier in his career, when he was stuck in a timeshare with other backs, including Pierre Thomas and Chris Ivory.Ingram has since emerged as a leading back and respected team leader in recent years. He leads the Saints with 850 rushing yards this season and has 287 receiving yards and seven total touchdowns.Ingram also had high praise for Hightower, who was emotional about making his first return to Arizona, where he began his career with the Cardinals, from 2008 to 2010.Marks competitive, man, as am I, Hightower said. Its a tough situation, especially when you start getting down there to that goal line. As a running back, your eyes are lightin up, man. You see the end zone and you want to get in there. So I understand his frustration.And I know its something that he knows: Its an emotional game, and you gotta just make sure you control your emotions at that point of the game. But I understand, Ive been there, Ive been in his shoes, and I understand his frustration.This is at least the second time this season the Saints (6-8) have dealt with a high-profile offensive player expressing frustration over his lack of touches. Receiver Brandin Cooks?got emotional after being targeted zero times in a 49-21 victory over the Los Angeles Rams three weeks ago. But Cooks had no complaints on Sunday after he caught seven passes for a career-high 186 yards and two touchdowns. USA Soccer Store .

Michael Cheika will not be gagged, refusing to back down on Sunday after All Blacks coach Steve Hansen had accused his Wallabies counterpart of hijacking New Zealands Test world record celebrations.In a sensational aftermath to Saturday nights Bledisloe Cup series finale in Auckland, Cheika took aim at the New Zealand media after being depicted as a clown and then claimed the All Blacks did not respect the Wallabies, suggesting they were involved in the media caricature.Seething after being portrayed on the match morning as an angry clown complete with red nose in a cartoon headlined send in the clowns in the countrys biggest-selling newspaper, the New Zealand Herald, Cheika let rip in an extraordinary rant after Australias 37-10 loss at Eden Park.Hansen said later that Cheika needed to be bigger than to take a newspapers barb to heart, and said it was wrong to suggest the All Blacks could dictate what the media did.But Cheika was still stewing upon his arrival back at Sydney airport 12 hours later.Why would you let the opposition call your team clowns and mock the jersey, he said.Thats how I feel about it.Maybe others dont. Maybe thats not the way. But Ive never had an Australian jersey so I think its something that should be treasured.Were going there for a good contest and I think [the All Blacks] are connected to [thhe caricature] obviously because they are talking about it.ddddddddddddThats my opinion and Im entitled to voice my opinion, right or wrong.Cheika was also upset that he did not receive an invitation into the triumphant dressing room after the All Blacks chalked up their unprecedented 18th consecutive tier-one Test match win.He said that the Sydney bugging saga had been the spark that had set him off, saying he was deeply offended by any inference the Wallabies camp had been in any way involved in the scandal.Cheika remains furious the bugging report came out on the day of the first Bledisloe Test match in Sydney, after All Blacks management had alerted police about finding an electronic listening device in a team room early in the week.I dont want to keep going over the same points, but that [NZ Herald] is obviously their go-to paper, Cheika said on Sunday.The whole bug thing came out from there.We had policemen in our offices asking us questions, asking our management questions. Thats serious stuff to be accusing people of, and its not true.Thats their go-to. Nothing happens without that connection.Thats my point of view. They dont have to agree with it. Im not asking them to agree with it. ' ' '
