There’s blood in the water...

[Rick Westhead @rwesthead]

The Ontario Minor Hockey Association suspended a Under-18 player for 7 games last week after an investigation corroborated an allegation the player said, "good job black boy n----."
Jordan Jacobs, the U18 New Hamburg Jr Firebirds defenceman who was targeted with the racial slur, responded by calling the other player a "racist piece of s---."
Jacobs was also suspended for 7 games.
Jacobs's mother Patti told me this was the *sixth* time this season her son has been the target of a racial slur during a hockey game.
After I emailed the OMHA about this on Friday, the association on Saturday reduced Jordan's suspension to 3 games.
In an email on Saturday to the New Hamburg Hockey Association, OMHA executive director Ian Taylor wrote the OMHA has "zero tolerance for discriminatory slurs of any kind... We have also been consistent throughout the year in trying to discourage any form of retaliation from our participants that involves derogatory or disrespectful behaviour or language..."
Patti Jacobs: "It's been heartbreaking. The one positive have been how many people in our organization have been supportive of Jordan finally using his voice. But then look what happens. He uses his voice instead of violence and still he gets seven games."
Jordan will likely move on to play junior hockey next season, Patti told me.

@spittinchiclets NBA style is best keeps teams trying longer. Would make deadline day better as well.

If the Oilers go on a heater and don’t launch a ‘We’re Pissy’ t-shirt campaign, they should be relegated.

@timandfriends I see nothing wrong with this. He answered the question. What do you think hes going to say? If they keep losing professional athletes dont like that. Hes a great player on a team who's not playing well.

Joey Moss should go into the Hockey Hall of Fame. I hope this happens. #RIPJoeyMoss

So real question. Why is Wi-Fi in the country available but yet expensive and minor? Thanks for Wi-Fi but it's metered at a low number and the only company here with high-speed all plans are small amounts. @fordnation @Bell

@dougmack91 Dumb call he went in clean and hit with his hip. The slovakian player went in wrong and also sold it.

[Blueshark @cliffe61]

@gerrydee Or atleast make the womans available to watch on tv. Womens sports need more attention and more exposure!
