Is it pretty safe to call yesterday one of the more ridiculous sporting days of 2011? In hockey, you had your usual wild finishes, but a seventeen-goal game between Winnipeg and Philadelphia stole the show. In college football, Case Keenum threw for nine - again, nine - touchdowns in a single game.
