When an NHL player receives a “misconduct” penalty (note: this is different from a “game misconduct,” which results in ejection), the team can substitute for that player immediately while a teammate serves out any accompanying penalty (for instance, a two-minute minor). How long, in game time, must the player who received the misconduct stay off the ice?

Name the man who coached the English rugby union national team from 1997 to 2004, leading them to Six Nations championships in 2000 and 2001, their first win against New Zealand since 1973, and victory in the 2003 World Cup. Interestingly, he followed his rugby coaching career by moving to soccer, where he was employed in the Southampton organization for several years.

If there's one arena where a crooked official will not be tolerated, it's professional wrestling. But, amazingly, that sport has also seen some nefarious officials. This man started out as a bona fide WWF referee in 1981 but soon raised some eyebrows with some quick counts and other duplicitous activity. Announcer Gorilla Monsoon accused him of accepting bribes and the ref controversially ruled against Hulk Hogan in a high-profile 1986 steel cage match. Eventually, the ref became a featured wrestler from 1987-89, attaching an alliterative "Dangerous" in front of his name.
Who is this versatile WWF personality? If you don't know his name, you can give me his masked "jobber" wrestling name he used from 1984-86 BEFORE he became well known in the ring.
Danny Davis or Mr. X
