WASHINGTON -- Michael Jordan has made another major donation, pledging $5 million to the Smithsonians new African-American history museum on the National Mall.Officials at the National Museum of African American History and Culture announced the gift from the basketball great Monday. The museum is set to open Sept. 24.In recognition of the gift, the museum will name a section of its sports gallery after Jordan. He also donated a jersey he wore during the 1996 NBA Finals to the museums collection.I am grateful for the opportunity to support this museum, Jordan said in a statement. I also am indebted to the historic contributions of community leaders and athletes such as Jesse Owens, whose talent, commitment and perseverance broke racial barriers and laid the groundwork for the successful careers of so many African Americans in athletics and beyond.Museum Director Lonnie Bunch said the gift will aid the museums vision of exploring how black athletes changed sports and changed American society.We are extremely grateful to Michael Jordan for his game-changing support, Bunch said in a statement. His gift will enable our visitors to explore how sports were used to break barriers as a way to gain full participation in American society.Last month Jordan spoke out on racial tensions in America in hopes of easing conflicts between blacks and law enforcement.The NBA great and Charlotte Hornets owner also announced he was giving $1 million to the Institute for Community-Police Relations and another $1 million to the NAACP Legal Defense Fund. The aim is to help build trust after several shootings across the country. Carlos Carrasco Jersey . However, he did make them miss him a little less. Cundiff, who had the unenviable job of replacing Dawson last season, agreed Thursday to a one-year, $1. Bob Feller Jersey . One game after a miserable showing in Oklahoma City, Gay tied a career high with 41 points and the Sacramento Kings cruised to a 114-97 victory at the New Orleans Pelicans on Tuesday night. http://www.indiansteamproshop.com/Indians-Joe-Carter-Kids-Jersey/ . But when it comes to determining if Raymond will find a place on the Leafs roster when training camp concludes in a week, well, that decision will ultimately fall to the head coach. Custom Cleveland Indians Jerseys .ca! Hi Kerry, Heres an interesting one. I know its common knowledge that all players are responsible for their sticks. We witnessed that when Zack Kassian hit Edmontons Sam Gagner in the face after a missed check. Bradley Zimmer Jersey . -- Golden State Warriors coach Mark Jackson asked his players a simple question during Fridays morning shootaround: How many of them had ever been on a team 14 games over .The roster looks relatively unchanged from the 2012 edition that finished tied for a league-worst 6-12 record, but one thing the Winnipeg Blue Bombers are banking on in order to right the ship in 2013 is the development of a key prospect — head coach Tim Burke. Now, referring to the much-lauded defensive mind of Burke as a prospect is quite partial after seven seasons in the CFL, but the two-time Grey Cup champion is entering his first full season at the helm of all three phases of football following 30-plus years in defensive coaching and coordinator roles and nine games with the interim tag after Winnipegs dismissal of Paul LaPolice in late August. Burke is building a new culture in Winnipeg based on his core principles of discipline, confidence, execution, and speed. And by transferring his regimented and no-nonsense approach from the defensive side of the ball to the entire game, he may spark the change needed to overcome a championship drought that has spanned over two decades in Winnipeg. Veterans like six-year Blue Bomber Jovon Johnson see it. "I think hell bring a presence to this team that we havent had in years, and hell have success as a head coach. "Its not only the defensive backs or the defence — its the whole team now," added the leagues Most Outstanding Defensive Player in 2011. "So a lot of the team gets to see the way that he is as a coach. Weve seen it for a number of years now, but I think the rest of the players are getting to see that he holds everybody accountable and his standards are set very high. "I think a lot of players respond to the way he coaches. When youve got a tenacious coach, the way he is and the way he coaches the game, it reflects on the players and how we go out and perform. Because thats the type of guy he is, and it ultimately goes down through everybody on the team." Receiver Terrence Edwards, entering his seventh season in Winnipeg, has noticed the difference in Burke from his last bench boss. "Hes preparing us real hard, I can tell you that much. Hes trying to make practice so hard and so scattered that when you get in games its supposed to be easier. Hes really pushing us and hes in our face. "Its a little different than coach (Paul LaPolices) style. Coach Burke is really in-your-face at everybody. It doesnt matter who you are — in your face pushing you." Burke has been steadfast in applying and enforcing his principles throughout training camp — you can hear it, even when watching workouts from a distance — and he continues to work to ensure everything is done his way while in charge. "Everything is about attention to detail," Burke said. "If you let it slide in one area its going to slide in a game. Weve got to do all the little things right. The margin of error in this league is so small between victory and defeat. "I just want us to be seeking perfection every day. Trying to get better and better and better every day and practicing at a high pace and play with discipline. And trying to out-execute our opponents." But being outscored 76-6 in their two preseason contests — a 24-6 home loss at the hands of mostly starter-less Argonauts roster, and a 52-0 embaarrassment with their own skeleton roster of rookies and eventual castoffs against the Tiger-Cats in Guelph — has some feeling that the new head coach may have his team lacking confidence entering Week 1, just seven days removed from the second-worst loss in CFL preseason history.dddddddddddd Burke doesnt believe it will be an issue. "I dont think the preseason games have had any effect, certainly for the guys we left behind. It wasnt on TV and we didnt show them the film… When you think about it, theres just a few guys who played in that game (in Guelph) who will play this week so I dont think theres going to be a big effect." "Im sure coming off of last year and the two preseason games nobody expects us to do anything," added Johnson. "So its our job to go out and shock the world." The first ever regular season game at the spanking new Investors Group Field will be a telling matchup as the Bombers host Anthony Calvillo and the Alouettes to kick off the 2013 CFL season. Notes: Receiver Chris Matthews, fresh off his CFL Most Outstanding Rookie season in 2012, tweaked his ankle late in practice on Sunday and will be a game-time decision against Montreal in Week 1. It will be a noticeable difference for quarterback Buck Pierce — 5-foot-10 Isaac Anderson will get his fourth career start if the 6-foot-5 Matthews is unable to go … 2011 fourth-overall draft pick Jade Etienne is slated to (finally) get his first career start in Week 1 at slotback … Terrence Edwards will dress for the first time after missing both preseason games while recovering from off-season foot surgery … Nickelback Johnny Sears still isnt ready to go following his off-season ACL surgery, so either rookie Desia Dunn or sophomore Jeremy McGee will start at the position formerly referred to in Winnipeg as strong-side linebacker … Other new starters for Week 1 include Terrell Parker at weak-side linebacker, Demond Washington at the halfback spot vacated by Jonathan Hefney following his release, and Kenny Mainor enters his third CFL season eyeing career start number seven at defensive end, but dont be surprised to see import rookie Freddie Harris rotated in heavily at that spot … Starting 2013 on the one-game injured list; running back Chris Garrett, receivers Doug Pierce and Kito Poblah, nickelback Johnny Sears, defensive lineman Jake Thomas … O-lineman Tyson Pencer is the only player who will start the season on the nine-game injured list … The Bombers currently have 45 players listed on their 46-man roster, and there is another open spot on the practice roster with the rumour being that general manager Joe Mack is after a young quarterback to develop behind backups Justin Goltz and Max Hall, as well as another non-import player … The worst loss in CFL preseason history took place back in 1962 when the Blue Bombers lost 53-0 to the Alouettes in Montreal. Four months later, Winnipeg captured their fourth Grey Cup in five years with a 28-27 victory over the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in the historic 50th Grey Cup game known as "The Fog Bowl." It is the first and only Grey Cup to ever have play suspended and completed the following day.
