Each week, The Reporters put their thumbs out to the good and the bad in the world of sports.
Delano
Hill Womens Jersey . This week, they discuss the strategy of the CFLPA,
the Oilers hiring of Bob Nicholson, the Alouettes firing of offensive
coordinator Rick Worman and the U.S. Open. Gary Lawless, TSN Radio - My thumb is
down to the ill-fated strategy of the CFLPA and the underwhelming results theyve
achieved once again. Disorganized and delusional best describe the players union
in this latest CFL labour impasse. Their first offer was inflammatory and
unattainable. They followed up with a series of retreats and eventual surrender.
The CFLPA has followed the lead of legal counsel Ed Molstad since 1974. Lacking
best describes the results. The CFLPA needs to represent its constituency with a
spirit of inclusion and a face of diversity. The union must look inward and
evolve. Questions must be asked and answered and hard decisions executed. The
CFLPA finds itself at the intersection of change and rot. Its time to pick a new
route. Steve Simmons, Sun Media - My thumb is up to Edmonton Oilers owner Darryl
Katz for going outside the family and hiring Bob Nicholson to oversee everything
that is Oiler. This isnt necessarily a hockey move as much as it is a business
move but in either area Nicholson is clearly equipped for the challenge. And
this is a challenge both in the standings and from what Katz wants from the
newly formed business called Oilers Entertainment Group. Sports is no longer
about only wins and losses. Its so much about veneer. In Edmonton, there will be
a new downtown arena, an area to grow around it, a footprint for the future.
When Nicholson took over Hockey Canada, it was a small disorganized operation,
lacking in business acumen. He left it as a hockey corporation. The Oilers are
fortunate to have him. Michael Farber, Sports Illustrated - My thumb is down to
the Alouettes for the firing of offensive coordinator Rick Worman. Three months
after coach Tom Higgins hired Worman, he canned him - before Montreal had played
an exhibition game. Higgins was right to act sooner rather than later, unlike
2013 when the era of occupationally-challenged head coach Dan Hawkins lasted
five games. But the abrupt dismissal speaks to the dysfunction of the franchise,
whose owner, Robert Wetenhall, hired Higgins without involving GM Jim Popp. The
Alouettes used to stand for quality on the field and steadfastness off it. If
the Worman saga is an indication, soon the only thing the Alouettes will stand
for is O Canada. Dave Hodge, TSN - My thumb is up to the U.S. Open golf
championship, with emphasis on "open". To win the Masters, you have to be
invited. To win the Open, you have to qualify, and everyone is eligible to try,
which means anyone from anywhere can win. And that creates interest because
"anyone" can be someone like 49-year-old Fran Quinn, who put his name on the
leaderboard with a first-round 68. Who is Fran Quinn? He has one year of
experience on the PGA Tour. Last year? No, 1992. He played in 18 events that
year and he missed the cut 12 times. This year, he has played one event - on the
Web.com Tour, golfs development league, if you will. Fran Quinn is still playing
at Pinehurst - he followed his 68 with rounds of 74 and 79. He wont win. But he
had a chance to win.
Shaquill
Griffin Seahawks Jersey . He also had some help Monday night.Hibbert
scored a season-high 29 points to help Indiana beat the Utah Jazz 97-86 Monday
night, ending the Pacers six-game losing streak.
Malik
McDowell Youth Jersey . The Heat centre scored 10 of his 30 points early
in the first quarter to silence the Toronto fans as Miami defeated the Raptors
113-101 on Friday night.
http://www.seahawksauthoritystore.com/Authentic-Shaquill-Griffin-Seahawks-Jersey/ . On Tuesday, the star questioned whether that was still the case. Speaking to
reporters at a charity event, Johnson said: "I just kind of wonder sometimes: Is
this still the place for me?" Johnsons comments came after he was asked why he
recently skipped a voluntary minicamp.ROTTERDAM, Netherlands - Top-seeded Juan
Martin del Potro of Argentina returned after a month out with injury to advance
to the second round of the ABN Amro tournament on Wednesday. The defending
champion beat Gael Monfils of France 7-6 (6), 6-3, while second-seeded Andy
Murray of Britain dispatched Edouard Roger-Vasselin, also of France, 6-3, 6-3.
Making his first appearance since injuring his wrist a month ago, Del Potro had
difficulty with his service games in the first set. Monfils served up 5 aces to
zero and was also the first to take a mini-break in the tiebreaker, before he
double-faulted and allowed Del Potro to reassert control. In the second set, the
Argentine was dominant, breaking Monfils servve in the fourth game.
Ethan
Pocic Jersey. The only hint of trouble came in the deciding game, when
Monfils took Del Potro to two break points. But Del Potro saved both and went on
to seal the victory. "My wrist is getting better by the day and it was fine
today against Monfils," he said. "Its always difficult to come back after an
injury, but I hope I can hold on to this level of play." Murray, who won the
tournament in 2009, worked efficiently against Roger-Vasselin, winning in just
under 90 minutes. The Wimbledon winner saved four break points, all in the
second set. Del Potro faces Paul Henri-Mathieu of France in the second round,
while Murray plays Dominic Thiem of Austria.
