There is nothing really to say here.
Minnesota Wild forward Devin Setoguchi may have successfully become winner the worst shootout move ever.
Granted, he slipped.
And it was made worse when Montreal Canadiens goalie Carey Price just casually skated out and poked away the puck.
Words cannot describe...so check out the video:

Union Friendly Goes Not So Friendly
((HT: The Brotherly Game))
In the pre-season, most soccer clubs go on barnstorming tours to pedal their wares and expand their brand...
The MLS Philadelphia Union thought it would be a good idea to go down to Costa Rica and play a couple of teams in some "friendlies" as they're called...
The Union game versus FC Belen degraded...
At least in the Belen-edited version, it did...
Evidence below...
The Union aren't commenting... and their returning home won't be much of an issue since the country doesn't have a military force...
At least, they have that to look forward to...

Administration Update: Add Port Vale And Dunfermline (Maybe)
((HT: ITV/BBC))
It's now four...
We've covered the administration efforts of Portsmouth and Rangers. Now, we can add League Two Port Vale to the stacks...
They've even gone to the Stoke city council to see about a 300,000-pound loan. The team is under a transfer embargo, since they failed to pay the players for their February work. And they're currently two points away from the play-off for promotion into League 1, but administration would move them down to 16th in League 2's table.
Here's ITV's coverage and recap
And the version from BBC Midlands
Here's your Portsmouth update, where they maintain that only a grass roots effort of support will keep them around long term...
Here's Captain Liam Lawrence and Manager Michael Apppleton...
((HT: PortsmouthFC))
But word from administrator Trevor Birch isn't good at all from the Portsmouth end... from the Portsmouth website itself...
"We had previously stated that there was a real danger of the club running out of cash before the end of the season.
"The risk of this happening increases substantially without the money from the football authorities.
"Unless something significant happens, there is a real possibility that we may not be able to fulfill the season's fixtures.
"One potential issue appears to come from the assignment of £2.2-million of parachute payments that was made by the old company to a previous owner.
"We have instructed lawyers to challenge this, but the process may take time."
SkySports has done a longer-length story on the "Taxman" and the HMRC's quest to get the "outstanding 100-million pounds unclaimed every year..."
Portsmouth, after their 10-point deduction for administration, sit only one point out of the cellar from Doncaster Rovers. A bottom two finish means they would be demoted from the Championship League to League 1- the equivalent of going from triple-a to double-a in baseball parlance...
Dunfermline is the second team in the Scottish League to take it in the chops- the team approached the League after the Glasgow Rangers' issues reportedly left an £84,000 hole in ticket revenue from a match three weeks ago - three days before Rangers went into administration.
Dunfermline players, management and staff are still getting their February wages in full - 60% has been paid, with 20% more set to follow on Monday - with the club vowing to pay the remaining balances within 10 days.
The front office calls the situation "temporary."

Looks Like Vikes Staying At Home
((HT: KSTP-TV))
Looks like the Minnesota Vikings are staying at home...
Except when they're not playing at the Metrodome...
The new plans for the stadium to replace the current stadium will have the stadium modeled after the stadium in Indianapolis and the construction will go perpendicular to the current configuration.
The $975-million pricetag will be taken care of like this: 45-percent or so by the Vikings themselves and the remainder coming from gaming dollars and taxes...
Here's the live shot in the dark detailing what may happen...
Of course, if state legislators don't vote for it, none of the above will go down...

Get Your Gus Johnson Fix Here

Because the Madness is upon us.
Sadly, we will be deprived of our Gus Johnson fix this year during the NCAA tournament.
So with that in mind, our Gus was in rare form last night during the Ohio State/Northwestern game on the Big 10 Network.
Watch and listen...you know you love it:
And the end of the game as Northwestern tries to sink a buzzer beater:

Buzzer Beater: Running 3-pointer for the win
Dateline Williamsport, PA.
The game: District 4, Class AA tournament play. The winner gets to play in the finals.
The set-up: Athens versus Southern Columbia. 2.9 seconds left, Southern Columbia down by 1. The ball is passed in to Casey Savitski who goes pretty much uncovered, 3/4 of the way down the court and throws up the running 3-pointer.
And its good.
Yes, chaos ensued.
