Finals or no finals, Mitchell Pearce says he owes it to his Sydney Roosters teammates to spend the remainder of the NRL season rebuilding the clubs winning culture.The Roosters fall from grace has been nothing short of dramatic this year and after three successive minor premierships including the 2013 title, the club is near certain to miss the playoffs for the first time under coach Trent Robinson.Due to injury, and suspension over his Australia Day antics Pearce has only played four games this year. In his return from a month out with a calf injury, he earned man-of-the-match honours despite the Tricolours 24-20 loss to Canterbury on Thursday night and has declared he will keep fighting.I want to keep firing for the boys because Ive let them down this year, Pearce said.Sitting out from footy at the start of the season gave me an opportunity to watch plenty of footy.Ive also gone through a lot of maturity off the field. A lot of self-development.So, now Im trying to take my game to another level, trying to take this team to another level.Im 27 and hopefully coming into my best footy.Thats my focus, to be the best I can be, hopefully that influences my teammates as well.Pearce said it had been difficult to watch the demise of the Roosters from the sidelines this year.Were winners here, were a proud club and proud players. (But) the culture has definitely dropped off this year, he said.There have been plenty of things happen. A few obvious ones and some struggles. Weve come off three big years where we won three minor premierships and a competition.So, as a club, were looking at this as a little down period ... you can roll over or you can keep fighting.The second-last placed Roosters need to win all of their last nine games to qualify for the finals, a feat Pearce hasnt give up on.The goal is to make the finals, he said.I know that sounds ridiculous when were right down at the bottom of the ladder. But weve got to keep our standards high.Yes, we have to win nearly every game. But if were selling ourselves short on that theres no point turning up at all.Were here to make the finals.

Michael Jordan was never one to back down from a challenge on a basketball court, regardless of the opponent.At his Flight School camp this week, Los Angeles Clippers guard Chris Paul tested Jordans competitive nature when he created a simple game for Jordan with a very big reward. The rules were simple: If His Airness missed three shots, the entire camp would get free shoes (presumably Air Jordans).MJ couldnt help himself.Jordan then turned the tables on Paul. His rules: If CP3 made all of his shots, the camp would get shoes.dddddddddddd.Former New York Knicks coach Derek Fisher also had an opportunity to send the campers home happy. He just had to do the same as Paul: hit all of his shots.Even now that he is well into his retirement, its hard to beat Michael Jordan on a basketball court. ' ' '
