Each week, The Reporters put their thumbs out to the good and the bad in the world of sports. Nike Free Kaufen Günstig. This week they discuss Dustin Penners "pancake" injury, Foyd Mayweathers Twitter attack on Manny Pacquaio, Lionel Messi, and the Lightnings goaltending woes. Bruce Arthur, National Post: My thumb is up to Dustin Penner, the Los Angeles Kings winger with the history of a little extra weight here, a little extra heft there. Penner recently came down with back spasms, and when he was asked how it happened he started his reply with, "I just leaned over to dip into some delicious pancakes that my wife made," and we were off. But lets praise the pancake man. He could have said it was an egg-white omelette. He could have said he was engaging in a vigorous abdominal workout. He could have said he was lifting a flaming car off a helpless child. But Dustin Penner, in the age of upper- and lower-body injuries, told us his wife made him delicious pancakes, and then he started a charity raffle for a pancake breakfast with him. Somebody should pay whatever it takes. Steve Simmons, Sun Media: My thumb is up to Floyd Mayweather for his Twitter attack on Manny Pacquiao, and not because I believe, like he does, that Pacquiao is some kind of punk. In this relationship, Mayweather is clearly the punk as the American courts have proven, but what happened this week because of Mayweathers calling out of Pacquaio was that an actual dialogue began. A dialogue that could lead and should lead to the only fight that people inside and outside of boxing want to see. Maybe the most anticipated event that isnt yet scheduled on our calendar. Pacquiao turned to his promoter and manager and said - get me this fight. And if Mayweathers crazy Tweeting results in a title bout between boxings biggest names, then how do you argue against that? Michael Farber, Sports Illustrated: My thumb is up to Lionel Messi, who this week was named FIFA Player of the Year for a record third consecutive time. Not that this was a shock. The runner-up, Cristiano Ronaldo, didnt even bother to attend the awards ceremony. Anyone willing to bet the 24-year-old Argentine wont make it four straight? Messi is simply the most gifted player in the history of the beautiful game. Pele me no peles. Keep your Maradonas. The Barcelona star has injected levels of skill and creativity never previously witnessed. For some, Messi still needs the validation of a smashing World Cup, which likely will occur in Brazil 2014. But Im willing to anoint him now. Messi personifies take-your-breath away greatness, the reason you probably became a sports fan in the first place. Dave Hodge, TSN: My thumb is down to the inertia that seems to have gripped the Tampa Bay Lightning when it comes to their goaltending woes. No less than nine times this season, Mathieu Garon has replaced Dwayne Roloson, or Dwayne Roloson has replaced Mathieu Garon, and it wouldnt matter if coach Guy Boucher did that every game or never did it - the Lightning cant win for bad goaltending, and cant, or wont, do anything about it. GM Steve Yzerman keeps talking about a long-term plan - his Detroit roots make him believe he should not be trading draft picks, but its hard to watch a team with the NHLs top goal-scorer, Steven Stamkos, a team that won two playoff series last season, play out the string this season without getting a goalie from somewhere, anywhere, who might be able to help. This just in - Tampa now sits 15th and last in the Eastern Conference.

Cory MacIntosh scored the winner 7:32 into the third period as Cape Breton reeled off four unanswered goals Friday to rally past the Halifax Mooseheads 4-3. Nike Free Schwarz. -- Henry Burris seized the moment. WINNIPEG -- After a couple of days of sadness, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers had some smiles on their faces and pride in their voices Thursday night as they honoured late coach Richard Harris with a win. The Bombers defeated the winless B.C. Lions 25-20 in a game that was dedicated to Harris, their beloved defensive line and assistant head coach who died of a heart attack Tuesday afternoon. "It was a wave of sorrow we were on top of and we had to dig so deep," said Bombers defensive tackle Doug Brown, who had a special bond with Harris. "We were so drained, we were so destitute coming into this game. So many guys, we had nothing more to give. We were spent ... "At halftime, we just looked each other in the eye and we knew what we had to do for (Harris) and we were able to pull it off." Winnipegs defence sacked B.C. quarterback Travis Lulay six times. Five players had one each and defensive tackle Dorian Smith had a pair. Justin Palardy kicked four field goals and Alex Brink threw a touchdown pass in relief of injured quarterback Buck Pierce, who left the game with a strained calf. The Bombers move to a 4-1 record for the first time since 2003. Winnipeg leads the CFL East Division, but Montreal (3-1) can regain a share of first as it travels to play Hamilton (2-2) Friday night. The Lions last opened the season 0-5 in 1996, when they finally got their first win on their sixth try. A sold-out crowd of 29,533 at Canad Inns Stadium took in the game, which began with both teams standing together at midfield for a moment of silence and video tribute to Harris, the six-year Bomber coach who began his CFL coaching career in 2001 with the Lions. As Bomber players headed to their sideline, many raised a hand or pumped a fist toward Harriss photo on the jumbotron. "That was a class act from them," Winnipeg receiver Terrence Edwards said of the Lions joining the Bombers at midfield. "Everybody around the league has respect for coach Harris. Hes meant so many things to so many people in this league." He added it felt great to match the four victories the team had all of last season (4-14). Pierce said his left calf was strained and was being checked out, but it should be fine for next Fridays home game against the 4-0 Edmonton Eskimos. He went to the locker-room after being tackled by defensive end Aaron Hunt during a quarterbaack draw with two minutes left in the third quarter. Nike Free Laufschuhe Herren Pierce, who has a history of injuries in his seven-year career, completed 11 of 18 pass attempts for 206 yards and one 82-yard touchdown pass to rookie Clarence Denmark. Brink replaced Pierce as Joey Elliott, who began the season as Pierces backup, is out for the season with a torn anterior cruciate ligament. Brink was 4-of-8 for 52 yards and one TD to Edwards. Lulay completed 16-of-31 for 195 yards. With B.C. ahead 20-19 late in the fourth quarter, Brink ran for 15 yards and then hit Edwards for a 22-yard touchdown pass with 3:56 to go. A two-point convert attempt failed when Brinks pass to Cory Watson went incomplete. The teams were tied 3-3 after the first quarter. B.C. had a 13-6 lead at halftime and Winnipeg was ahead 19-14 going into the final quarter. Denmarks TD was his first, while Palardy connected on field goals from 41, 20, 38 yards and 24 yards. Lions kicker Paul McCallum also made all four of his field-goal tries from 25, 40, 37 and 46 yards and had a punt single. Running back Jamal Robertson scored his third touchdown of the season. The Lions had four sacks, all on Pierce. Hunt had two of them. The defensive end thought Harriss tribute affected both clubs. "They came out with a "ot of emotion because of him and I think we did, too," Hunt said. "A lot of players know him and a lot of coaches know him, too. I think tonight we both played for him, but they actually came out with a victory." Lulay said the Bombers were inspired. "I cant speak for what they went through, thats obviously a tough thing," he said. "I can only imagine my reaction would be wanting to just play and leave everything on the field." The Lions started last season 1-7, but rallied seven wins over their last 10 games to finish third in the Western Conference. They lost to the Saskatchewan Roughriders in double-overtime in the West semifinal. "We need to make those plays in the game," Lulay said. "A big part of it now when youre losing is you just have to do it, kind of validate your work and what youre doing." Bomber head coach Paul LaPolice said the locker-room was very quiet before the game. He showed the players some video of NFL quarterback Brett Favres game after his dads death to prove they could get through their anguish. ' ' '
