On Wednesday, 9 November 2011, the Provo Blog published an article on the recent tie between the Provo Penguins and Analog, also known as the ‘Greatest Tie in NESHL History on a Tuesday Night in November 2011 in Foxboro’.
The article was subsequently proven to have contained factual errors which erroneously awarded the first amazing diving goal of the night to Hickey-3, when in fact it should have been awarded to Hickey-1. The Provo Blog accepted the information that was provided by the referee and the scorekeeper as truthful, and hereby apologizes unreservedly for its error of judgment in this matter.
The Provo Blog will no longer take anything that the referee, the scorekeeper or the NESHL says as factual. The Provo Blog understands the damage that this article has caused the Provo Penguins and its leading goal scorer, Hickey-1, and we unreservedly apologize for this.
We will ensure that, in future, due process is followed and will endeavor to question any information that appears on the stat sheet. Errors entered the story immediately as it was being created and as we don’t have an editing process, there was really no way to catch this little snafu. As far as you know, an internal investigation is underway. Additionally, since Hickey-3 did not actually score the goal, he will no longer be called ‘Veinte Cinco’
