  • Küsimused Ja Vastused
    1. Kes? 2. Kuigi pooleteise aasta vanuselt kukkus talle kirves käe peale, ei seganud see tal tippkorvpalluriks saamast. “Jäin ilma vasaku käe poolest pöidlast. Hiljem, kui korvpalli mängisin, osutus see tülikaks asjaoluks. Nii pidin viskama õppima ühe käega, mida kõrvalt vaadati kui uut tehnikanippi,” on ta meenutanud. Eesti meistriks on lisaks korvpallile tulnud muide ka võrkpallis, korvpallitreenerina aga juhendanud muu hulgas Moskva Krõlja Sovetovi naiskonda. 1970. aastatel sai temast aga ülitähtis isik, sest just tema initsiatiivil asutati Tallinnasse NSV Liidu esimene VAZi tehnohooldekeskus, mille direktor ta jupp aega oli. Ta on töötanud ka ajakirjanikuna ning RETi tehases, raadioid pani ta ka pensionipõlves kodus oma lõbuks kokku. Kes? 3. Seda, et 2014. aastal jalgpalli maailmameistriks tulnud Saksamaa võistkonna peatreener on ikka veel Joachim Löw, teab ilmselt iga spordisõber. Piltidel on aga 2010., 2006. ja 2002. aastal maailmameistriks tulnud võistkondade praegused peatreenerid, kes suure tõenäosusega juhendavad oma riigi koondiseid ka järgmise aasta suvel Venemaal toimuval MM-il. Kes on need treenerid (2 õiget – 1 punkt)? 4. Vanaisa Harald oli võimleja, tema lapsed Mart ja Tiina suusatajad, Jüri suusataja, kiiruisutaja, jalgrattur ja jalgrattatreener, kelle õpilaste hulka kuulub ka Erika Salumäe, Jüri abikaasa Aili võrkpallur. Kõige tuntum on aga Jüri ja Aili poeg, kes on lisaks oma põhialale, millel ta hiljem tuntuks sai ning tiitleid kogus, tulnud mitmekordseks Eesti juunioride meistriks trekisõidus. Mis perekond? 5. Kellenimeliseks seaduseks kutsutakse lauset: „Kui sul on mitu mõistlikku pakkumist, millest üks on 3 trumbita, siis paku just seda”? Tegemist on 1938 sündinud mehega, keda peetakse kõigi aegade parimaks bridžimängijaks. 10-kordne Bermuda karika võitja (1970-2009), 50-kordne Põhja-Ameerika meister, 12- kordne maailmameister.
