Los Angeles Rams coach Jeff Fisher might have expected that confirmation of his contract extension brought with it a certain amount of job security.Fisher had penned a deal with the NFL franchise until 2018 ahead of the new campaign, but the development was made public only last week.The Rams subsequently lost to the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday, a record-equalling 165th defeat for Fisher, and within 24 hours he had been shown the door.Eight days was all that separated the announcement of his extension and his sacking, but as these sportsmen could attest, he is not alone in seeing his job prospects change so swiftly.Emmanuel Eboue (Sunderland)With the Black Cats locked in another battle against Premier League relegation, manager Sam Allardyce turned to an experienced head to help drag them away from danger.Former Arsenal and Galatasaray defender Emmanuel Eboue beamed for photographs as he penned a short-term deal at the Stadium of Light.Hes a terrific guy, a very, very good talker as well as a good player, Allardyce said at the time. Hopefully when the test comes, he is fit enough to cope.However, the test would never come for the Ivorian. Eboue had his contract terminated by Sunderland on March 31 -- 22 days after he had signed -- due to a 12-month FIFA suspension. He never made an appearance for the club.Sergi Guardiola (Barcelona B)Proponents of social media believe that it provides an essential link between sports people and their fans, but it can also become a hindrance.Dec. 28, 2015 could have been the happiest day of Sergi Guardiolas football career. The forward was about to sign for Barcelona B, and while that meant playing in Spains third tier, who knew what the future could hold?Unfortunately for Guardiola, though, a scan of his Twitter feed made for unpleasant reading if you were a Barcelona fan, or official.Two years previously the forward had fired off some pro-Real Madrid, and anti-Barcelona and Catalonia, tweets. His career at the Camp Nou lasted a matter of hours.Eddie Jones (Stormers)When Stuart Lancaster was shown the door by the Rugby Football Union following Englands limp 2015 Rugby World Cup exit, the governing bodys chairman Ian Ritchie promised to cast his net far and wide.A first foreign coach of Englands national rugby team was mooted, but there was a problem -- the RFUs preferred candidate had only just started another job.Eddie Jones was flavour of the month having guided Japan to a World Cup win over South Africa, but insisted he was wholly committed to the Stormers as he was unveiled by the Super Rugby franchise on Nov. 12, 2015.In fairness, Jones also told reporters to never believe what you read in the papers and eight days later he was unveiled by the RFU. Cape Towns loss has very much been Englands gain.Paul Sturrock (Sheffield Wednesday)Sheffield Wednesday began the 2006-07 Championship season with a degree of confidence having secured their status in the division with a run of one defeat in nine games at the end of the previous campaign.A new four-year contract for manager Paul Sturrock duly arrived, with Yorkshire rivals Leeds sniffing around the former Southampton boss.However, the Owls endured a miserable start to the new season, with a 4-0 defeat to Colchester United on Oct. 18 their sixth in 12 league games.It proved one too many for Sturrock, who departed Hillsbrough less than a month into his new bumper deal.John Obi Mikel (Manchester United)Chelseas capture of John Obi Mikel in 2006 was far from straightforward.Indeed, the combative midfielder had been paraded as a Manchester United player in Norway in April of the previous year, assigned the No. 21 shirt and loaned back to Lyn, his parent club.That particular development angered Chelsea, who had reportedly paid for some of the Nigerians education and had a separate agreement with his agents.A court case ensued, with Chelsea eventually getting their man at a cost of ￡16 million -- ￡12m of which went to United, for whom Mikel never played.With his former Blues boss, Jose Mourinho, now in the Old Trafford hotseat, rumours have swirled that he could finally be set for a move to Manchester. Joey Votto Jersey . -- There were a lot of firsts for the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday night. Cincinnati Reds Jerseys . Miller reached right to deflect Mikhail Grabovskis attempt with just over 2 minutes remaining in regulation, and then made two more saves in the shootout Sunday to give the Sabres a 2-1 win over the Washington Capitals. http://www.redsgearshop.com/Reds-Cliff-Pennington-Kids-Jersey/ .com) - Following a late-game loss to the reigning NBA champs, the Toronto Raptors will look to sustain their recent high-level play as they travel to Indiana to take on the Pacers. Eugenio Suarez Jersey . LUCIE, Fla. Barry Larkin Jersey .C. Lions has come to an end. Banks told TSN on Jan 2 that he had no interest in playing out the option year of his contract with the Lions in 2014, and he again made that clear in a conversation with Lions GM Wally Buono last week. MOSCOW --- Viswanathan Anand played out a draw with in-form Ian Nepomniachtchi of Russia and remained in the joint third spot at the Tal Memorial chess tournament.As Nepomniachtchi pressed for some advantage in the English opening, the initial pressure was warded off first with the trade of queens and later by some positional manoeuvres.
