Maybe it was the wrong final Jeopardy answer

Each week, The Reporters put their thumbs out to the good and the bad in the world of sports. This week, they discuss Luol Deng, Craig Leipold, Saku Koivu, and the NHL trying to write an understandable rule covering "kicked in" goals. Bruce Arthur, Toronto Star My thumb is up to Luol Deng of the Miami Heat. Deng, one of the most respected players in the NBA, was the subject of a racist scouting report originating that said Deng "has a little Africa in him," and compared him to a respectable shopkeeper who sells counterfeit goods. It was leaked amid an Atlanta Hawks ownership war, and that revelation has torn the franchise apart: the owner is selling, and general manager Danny Ferry, who read it aloud, is on indefinite leave. Dengs reaction, though, was perfect. He issued a statement that struck exactly the correct tone, and included Deng saying, "Im proud to say I actually have a lot of African in me, not just a little." He showed pride, strength, and grace. In this wretched week for sports, we needed that. Steve Simmons, SUN Media My thumb is up to Minnesota Wild owner Craig Leipold for offering to fly anyone in his organization to Saturdays funeral of Bob Suter, the first “Miracle on Ice” player to pass away. It wasnt just that Suter did some work for the Wild or was the father of Minnesota star defenceman Ryan Suter. It was who he was in the hockey world and what he represented that mattered so much. Unlike his son and his brother Gary, Bob Suter never played an NHL game. After the gold medal win in Lake Placid in 1980, he moved home to Wisconsin, opened up a sporting goods business, was involved in community, coached kids hockey. Among the non-family members he influenced: Phil and Amanda Kessel. Bob Suter was only 57 years old. The heart attack that took him too soon came in a hockey arena. Michael Farber, Sports Illustrated My thumb is up to Saku Koivu, who never got his name engraved on the Stanley Cup but whose signature is on something of even more value - a pet scanner at Montreal General Hospital. Koivu retired this week after an end-of-career turn in Anaheim, but he will be remembered as the long-serving captain of the Canadiens, overcoming non-Hodgkins lymphoma and returning to the most thunderous ovation since Rocket Richard closed the Forum. Koivu was a lightning rod for criticism - he never did learn French - but deeds are more significant than words. He and his foundation bought the diagnostic machine that has helped thousands of cancer-stricken Montrealers. That is a proud legacy. Dave Hodge, TSN I sympathize with the NHL, but my thumb is down for the NHLs continuing inability to write an understandable rule that covers a goal scored when a puck goes into the net off an attacking players skate. I sympathize because what the NHL wants to do cant be done. It wants a rule that says some goals off skates should count, and others shouldnt. So the latest attempt requires “more demonstrable video evidence of a distinct kicking motion” to wipe out a goal or to uphold the call of “no goal.” This would be okay if we ever knew what the level of “demonstrable evidence” was previously. Then we could identify more of it when we see it in the coming season. There is a concern that a rule that allows all goals off skates would create wild attempts to kick at pucks in the crease. In fact, that is possible anywhere else on the ice, and isnt regarded as any sort of problem. The “kicked goal” rule is and always will be until it no longer exists. Francis Coquelin Arsenal Jersey UK .Y. - Referee Ed Hochuli referred to replay official Tom Sifferman by his nickname Jungle Boy, which was heard on the in-stadium microphone during the Arizona Cardinals-Carolina Panthers NFC wild-card game Saturday. Matteo Darmian Jersey UK .7 million, one-year contract.The deal, announced Friday, includes a $50,000 performance bonus if the left-hander appears in 60 games. http://www.worldsoccersshopuk.com/ARSEN ... JERSEY-UK/. "First, I would like to offer my deepest and sincerest apologies for any harm I have inflicted on University of Missouri defensive lineman, Michael Sam," the statement read. Liverpool Jersey UK . This time, Tebow was in a groove the entire second half -- not just in the waning minutes -- and his teammates on defence were getting gobbled up. Kurt Zouma Chelsea Jersey UK .75 million contract for the 2014 season and avoided arbitration. The team announced the agreement on Tuesday.When it was finally time for the Tiger-Cats lineman to take his position behind the Jeopardy! podium, the Ticats twitter and former teammates showed him support and advertised his game show appearance. Peter Dyakowski is on Jeopardy. Right now. For real. — Hamilton Tiger-Cats (@Ticats) June 3, 2014 Peter on Jeopardy!!! @PeterDyakowski pic.twitter.com/EKBkafYtpA — Marwan Hage (@marwanhage) June 3, 2014Everything was going well for Dyakowski early when Trebek showed love for his football team… Alex Trebek tells Peter Dyakowski the @Ticats are his fave team. How nice! #Jeopardy #HamOnt — Carly Conway (@carlyconwayCHCH) June 3, 2014But when the game began, Dyakowski found himself in an early ..................... and was being poked fun at by viewers (twitter can be so cruel). The CFL lineman on #jeopardy has only gotten one question right and it was about pie. Cc @jon_bois — Drew (@ScattyLight) June 3, 2014In Final Jeopardy!, Trebek posed an answer about college mascots… something a former college football star may know a thing or ttwo about, right? Bonus point for the first correct answer to this final Jeopardy question! pic.ddddddddddddwitter.com/0WOeTJYju1 — Mrs. Truskin (@MrsTruskin) June 4, 2014Wrong. Maybe it was the wrong final Jeopardy answer but always right in my heart. GO @CUSE! @SyracuseU pic.twitter.com/sRo5jYlnMK — Stephen Hass (@StephenHass) June 3, 2014What is the Penn Quakers was the correct response.Dyakowski was a good sport about his poor showing on Jeopardy! and didnt seem too upset after the show. Well, the good thing about being in a slump on @Jeopardy is that it doesnt last very long! — Peter Dyakowski (@PeterDyakowski) June 4, 2014Good thing, because his teammates are already poking fun at him for his Jeopardy! blunder. The boys are already having fun with it! I found some of my more "creative" answers on my locker. #Jeopardy #Ticats pic.twitter.com/nm3lpd6cv8 — Peter Dyakowski (@PeterDyakowski) June 4, 2014Jeopardy! wasnt Dyakowskis first game show experience, as he won Canadas Smartest Person in 2012.
