ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Broncos coach John Fox says the only change he plans to make following open-heart surgery is his vantage point. "My goal and dream is to be there (on the sideline) before the conclusion of the season," Fox told Denver media during a conference call Tuesday from his Charlotte, N.C., home where hes convalescing from surgery to fix a genetic heart defect. Fox said he was born with a bicuspid aortic valve, one that has only two leaflets instead of the usual three. The aortic valve regulates blood flow from the heart into the aorta, the major blood vessel that brings blood into the body. He said it was discovered in 1997 when a murmur showed up in a physical while he was the Giants defensive co-ordinator. He was told earlier this year that surgery was necessary, but he had hoped to delay the operation until after the Super Bowl. That changed when he almost passed out Nov. 2 while golfing in Charlotte, two days after hed visited his cardiologist in Raleigh. Less than 48 hours later, he had surgery and was released from the hospital Friday. Hell soon begin his cardio rehab in North Carolina and wont be back in Denver until hes strong enough to fly back. Fox said after he became dizzy on the golf course, he chipped within 2 feet for par, then lay down on the grass before being taken to a hospital where a CT scan showed "my valve was almost completely closed. I was receiving very little blood to my body." Fox seemed to bristle when asked if any lifestyle changes were in the offing. "Im very, very healthy," he said, noting that normal hospital stays following this type of surgery is five to seven days and "I was out in four. So, this isnt due to poor lifestyle, not being healthy, too much stress, not enough stress. This is basically something I was born with that I needed fixed. I think the quick recovery speaks to what great shape Im in. "This is really not a lifestyle problem. Its just, lets call it a birth defect. Im not really sure what you call it. But I just came up a little short in that department." Fox said hed have needed this operation even if he werent an NFL coach. "Sure, there is some pressure and stress involved in coaching, but I think a lot of people out there in Denver, in this country, really around the globe, have very pressure-packed jobs. "I think our military comes to mind maybe as one of those that I dont think coaching compares to," Fox said. "So, it wasnt the pressure of coaching or any kind of thing." Foxs voice sounded good during his 16-minute call, he also displayed his usual sense of humour, quick wit and charisma that players and coaches alike say they miss around team headquarters. Fox said he was relaxing Tuesday and "just getting around to seeing the San Diego game from Sunday." Thats the coaches copy. He watched the broadcast live, although he admitted there were times he had to stop watching lest his blood pressure skyrocket. One of those moments surely was when Peyton Manning came up limping after Corey Liuget dived at his ankles in the closing minutes of Denvers 28-20 win. The Broncos (8-1) asked the league to look at the hit, but the NFL determined it was a clean tackle. Fox declined to confirm it was he who raised the issue with the NFL: "Well, were not really allowed to discuss anything to do with officiating. I can say that I did communicate with somebody at the league office," Fox said. Aside from his concern over his quarterback, Fox said he was feeling good and thanked everyone for their well wishes and the Broncos for allowing him "this time to get my health back, and that process is going very well. Its been helped by everybody there in Denver, and probably first and foremost my wife, Robin." Fox and interim head coach Jack Del Rio speak every day by phone and Fox said hes texted and talked with some of his players, too. Famous for saying every injured player is "day to day," Fox was just as coy about the timeline for his own recovery. "I can just tell you that Im working very hard to get better and I feel like my doctors are pleased that Ive improved every day," he said. "So things are going great. I like where Im at right now and well see where that leaves us." Personalized Ravens Jersey . -- Kevin Pangos had 27 points and Drew Barham added 17 to lead No. Customized New York Giants Jerseys .

Open on Wednesday as he recovers from back surgery that has kept him out of golf for nearly three months. LOS ANGELES -- Prosecutors charged former NFL safety Darren Sharper on Friday with raping and drugging two women in California and disclosed he is under investigation in connection with five more drug-related rapes in three other states. Sharper briefly appeared in Los Angeles Superior Court, where his arraignment was postponed until Feb. 20 at the request of his lawyers. They issued a statement saying he would be exonerated. Prosecutors then filed a motion to increase Sharpers bail to $10 million and outlined details of investigations involving him in Las Vegas, Tempe, Ariz., and New Orleans. Sharper has not been charged in the other jurisdictions. In the bail motion, Los Angeles County Investigator John Maccharella described a pattern in which the former football star met women at clubs or parties and lured them to a hotel room, where they were allegedly drugged and raped. The motion says the incidents happened in the past five months, with two occurring within a day in Los Angeles and Las Vegas. After conferring with police in other jurisdictions, Maccharella said in the bail motion that the first assault followed an event for New Orleans Saints football players on Sept. 22, 2013. Maccharella said he was told a woman went to a New Orleans bar with Sharper, consumed an alcoholic beverage provided by him and blacked out. She awoke the next morning while being sexually assaulted, the bail motion stated, noting that an exam later showed Sharpers DNA was present. The Los Angeles charges were based on incidents on Oct. 30, 2013, and Jan. 14, 2014, beginning at a West Hollywood nightclub. Sharper allegedly met two women each time, invited them to a party theen said he had to stop at his hotel.dddddddddddd In the October incident, each woman was given a shot of an alcoholic beverage before blacking out, and one later awoke to find the other being sexually assaulted, the charging documents state. In January, a woman awoke and suspected she had been assaulted, the documents state. Similar scenarios played out on Jan. 15 in Las Vegas and on Nov. 20, 2013, in Arizona, the bail motion states. In Los Angeles, Sharper is facing two counts of rape by use of drugs, four counts of furnishing a controlled substance, and one count of possession of a controlled substance. The complaint alleges the drugs involved were morphine and zolpidem, which is sold under the brand name Ambien. Sharper was represented by prominent Los Angeles attorneys Blair Berk and Leonard Levine. "We look forward to the true facts being revealed in this case," Berk said after the brief court appearance. "And we are hopeful Mr. Sharper will be fully exonerated before this case is concluded." Sharper, 38, played in the NFL from 1997 to 2010, mostly with the Packers. Sharper was arrested on Jan. 17. He was allowed to remain free on $200,000 bail and ordered to surrender his passport. He has not entered a plea. Superior Court Judge Roberto Longoria did not immediately take up the bail motion. Sharpers lawyers refused to comment on the other investigations. If convicted in the California case, Sharper could face more than 30 years in state prison. Sharper was selected All-Pro six times and chosen for the Pro Bowl five times. He played in two Super Bowls, one with the Packers as a rookie and a second with the Saints. cheap nfl jerseys ' ' '
