Laurie Hernandez has had a pretty big year. She won gold and silver medals representing the United States in gymnastics at the Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.Then the 16-year-old came home and decided to appear on the 23rd season of Dancing with the Stars. And on Tuesday night, she won that too to take home the Mirror Ball Trophy.I just want to thank everyone for the support and riding along this crazy roller coaster of my life, Hernandez said on the show minutes after winning the trophy. My goal is just to inspire others as I go on with my journey, and thanks for being there for me.She scored a perfect 40 of 40 in her last dance of the competition with partner Val Chmerkovskiy, a fusion foxtrot/Argentine tango that was also the last overall dance of the night. It also might have been her best performance on a night when all three finalists -- Hernandez, IndyCar driver James Hinchcliffe and ex-Detroit Lions receiver Calvin Johnson -- notched perfect scores.Hernandez earned rave reviews throughout the competition, enough that she will actually be joining the Dancing with the Stars tour that will be staged in a few months. The judges cited her ability to learn as a performer beyond her dancing skills throughout the almost three-month-long competition, in which she was the youngest competitor.You have given us spectacular dance after spectacular dance, judge Carrie-Ann Inaba said after Hernandezs final dance on Tuesday night. Blowing my mind every time you come out here. But I have to say, quite honestly, this was by far, for me, your best dance ever.It was enough to hold off Hinchcliffe, who finished in second place, and Johnson, who finished third.All three dancers, as expected, were heavily praised during the finale in Los Angeles.Hinchcliffes final dance, a fusion of a Viennese waltz into a foxtrot, fit in with what Hinchcliffe had done all season, which was to become one of the better male dancers the program has had. That was something pointed out by multiple judges throughout the season.Hinchcliffe also had a strong chemistry with his partner, Sharna Burgess, who he gifted his racing fire suit from his first race back after an accident that almost killed him.When I see you dance like that, its completely understandable why youre here, judge Len Goodman said after Hinchcliffes final dance. You are a terrific dancer. What I love, firstly, is the chemistry between the two of you is great.I can say no more than this. I wish I could dance like you.Johnsons perfect score of 40 came off a jive/quickstep fusion dance with Lindsay Arnold that fit the abilities he displayed throughout the season. He often excelled when dances had speed and required fast feet. He was the surprise finalist, considering how often those around him made sure to say how much he couldnt dance prior to the show.Johnson proved the naysayers wrong throughout the season.You just engage everybody, judge Bruno Tonioli said after Johnsons final dance on Tuesday. You make us happy. You make us want to dance. Aaron Donald Youth Jersey . Dallas hasnt ruled out the star quarterback for Sunday nights game against Philadelphia, but all signs point to Romos back injury pushing Kyle Orton into the starting role after two years of limited play as the backup. Surely Ortons name isnt the first that comes to mind for fans wanting a change after years of damaging interceptions, fumbles or, most infamously, the field goal flub when Romo dropped the snap on a kick that could have won his first playoff game in 2006. Greg Gaines Rams Jersey . "Were just throwing s--- at the wall hoping something sticks," said Tortorella about the possible line combinations for Fridays game against Columbus. The Canucks have lost five straight games and six of their last seven, leaving them in a logjam in the Pacific Division, currently sitting fifth - good for ninth in the Western Conference. http://www.footballramsshop.us/ . Siddikur, whose previous win on the circuit came in Brunei three years ago, finished his bogey-free round with a birdie on the 18th for a total of 17-under 199. Indias Shiv Chowrasia, who has finished runner-up in this tournament twice, was in second place after a 66. Deacon Jones Jersey . - Levi Browns tenure at left tackle for the Pittsburgh Steelers is over before it even began. Todd Gurley II Rams Jersey .J. -- Pitcher Carl Pavano is retiring after 14 major league seasons. MINNEAPOLIS -- The Minnesota Lynx have been in this position before. Its not ideal, but the defending WNBA champions have overcome the same predicament in the past.Down 1-0 in the WNBA Finals, the Lynx find themselves with work to do against the Los Angeles Sparks following L.A.s 78-76 victory in Sundays Game 1.En route to the 2015 WNBA title, Minnesota fell in the first game against the Indiana Fever before eventually rallying to win the championship in five games.We were in this position last year, said Lynx guard Lindsay Whalen, who had 18 points in Sundays loss. You regroup, you see what you can do to recover and get back for Tuesday night. We have been a group thats been together for a long time and been a part of a lot of these, so that will be our focus.Los Angeles defense was a big reason the Sparks emerged victorious in Game 1. Brian Aglers team forced 16 Minnesota turnovers and converted those into 18 points at the other end.Its unlikely that the Sparks will hold Lynx leading scorer Maya Moore scoreless in the first half Tuesday like they did Sunday, but another stout defensive effort against Moore and Co. certainly will be key for taking a 2-0 series lead.We respect her, and we respect that whole team, but we really respect what she can do, Agler said of Moore, who finished Sundays game with 18 points. Its not like we dont think thats going to happen. We know its going to happenn.ddddddddddddLos Angeles is in search of its first WNBA title since 2002. The current core of players is not as battle tested in the Finals like Minnesota. The Lynx are winners of three of the last five WNBA championships and are trying to become just the second franchise to win four titles.In recent years, its been the Lynx knocking the Sparks out of the Western Conference playoffs on their way to the Finals. With the new change to the WNBAs playoffs that seeds teams regardless of conference, Minnesota and Los Angeles have the opportunity to square off in the Finals.For Sparks star Candace Parker, that means her first Finals comes against the defending champs.Were used to kind of meeting them before the finals, so it had a feel like before, Parker said. I think in general at first obviously theres some nerves, but you kind of get lost in the game and just trying to execute.That quest for a fourth ring has already gotten off to a bumpy start for Minnesota after losing at the buzzer on Sunday. Los Angeles hopes to keep that momentum going.Moving forward to Tuesday, we have to make sure we keep our same focus and same energy out there on the floor because we know theyre a hungry team, Agler said. Theyre trying to make history, and theyre going to come after it. ' ' '
