What happened on Tuesday, January 14, 2015?

  1. Goalie on goalie crime: The match between Everton and West Ham in the English FA Cup was tied after 90 minutes and tied after 120 minutes, so it went to penalty kicks. It was still tied after the normal allotment of five shots each, so it went on to sudden death penalty kicks! And on and on until basically everyone on each team had shot and the teams were reduced to having their goalies shoot at each other. Finally, one team scored while the other did not, and West Ham won.
    Line: LOL at goalies shooting penalty kicks at each other.
  2. Giant scores in hockey: In yesterday’s sports forecast, we featured the Minnesota Wild at Pittsburgh Penguins as the game to watch in the NHL. It didn’t fail to entertain as Pittsburgh managed the rare feat of winning 7-2 without either of their best players, Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin, scoring a single goal. That game wasn’t even the highest scoring of the night or the most lopsided. The Winnipeg Jets beat the Florida Panthers 8-2 thanks to four goals from Mathieu Perreault!
    Line: What a wacky night in the NHL!
  3. The drama (and losing) continues for the Cleveland Cavaliers: After missing the last ten games, LeBron James returned to the Cleveland Cavaliers lineup and scored 33 points but it wasn’t enough to beat the Phoenix Suns. The talk today will be about Kevin Love, the all-star power forward, who was traded to the Cavaliers before this season and who most people thought was going to be the perfect partner-in-crime for James. Love did not play at all in the fourth quarter of this game. Why? What does that mean for the future of Love in Cleveland? What about the coach, David Blatt?
    Line: Love is definitely leaving at the end of the year, maybe they should trade him NOW?! Who would even want him?
