Drew Brees decimates the Indianapolis Colts defense with his heat vision.

This has been a banner year for NFL records being tied or broken.  First, you had Cam Newton breaking the rookie record for most yards thrown in his first game.  Then, you had Sebastian Janikowski kicking a record-tying 63-yard field goal and Tom Brady throwing a 99-yard touchdown pass in the same weekend.  Now, you’ve got Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints running wild on the hapless Indianapolis Colts.  The Saints beat the Colts 62-7, tying an NFL record for most points scored in a game in the process.  Saints quarterback Drew Brees threw for 5 touchdown passes.

“I was real proud of how we played tonight, how we handled the week of practice,” said Saints coach Sean Payton.  “We spent a lot of time during the week just talking about us beginning to play our best football, because we really felt while we were 4-2, we hadn’t done that.”

It just doesn’t end for the Colts.  Now 0-7, the Peyton Manning-less team from Indianapolis will be leaving the New Orleans Mercedez-Benz Superdown and returning home to the friendly confines of the RCA Dome, where they look to get on the winning path soon.  This is the first time in 9 years that the Saints are guaranteed to have less than 10 wins, and the less said about the playoffs, the better Colts fans will feel.

Best keep holding out for the Andrew Luck sweepstakes, Indiana.

I’ve never had a problem eating food from a gas station.  Just two weeks ago, I ate a couple of hot dogs purchased from a gas station.  They were delicious.  That’s not the first time I’ve eaten gas station food, and I doubt it will be the last.  There’s nothing like a fun food novelty. […]

Commissioner Roger Goodell gathered 32 NFL owners for one big question.  One of the league’s most wanderlust-stricken franchises is looking to move again.  The Oakland-Los Angeles-Oakland Raiders, tired of gutting it out in a run-down stadium, were once again looking for greener pastures.  Only the Miami Dolphins refused to cooperate.  With a vote of 31-1, […]

In 2006, an injury to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe opened the door for an undrafted free agent by the name of Tony Romo to take the helm of America’s Team and lead the Dallas Cowboys to an early playoff exit.  Bledsoe went from starter to afterthought in a season.  Now, the circle continues […]

For 89 years, Oscars has never had a major mistake.  The last few Oscars might have had a few flubs, but at least they never got the most important category of the night wrong.  Well, that’s now changed, all thanks to OG Bonnie and Clyde legends Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.  When Faye Dunaway called […]

Tom Brady has been wildly successful, if controversial.  He’s the first quarterback ever to win five Super Bowls and only the second player to do so after Charles Haley.  Unlike Haley, Brady won all his Super Bowls with the same team, the New England Patriots.  The only thing that seems to be able to stop […]

Ben Affleck, no matter what you might think of him, is a talented actor and director.  He’s got the goods, but he’s smart enough to know when he’s in over his head.  All along, since he took on the mantle of Batman, he’s had his eyes on writing, directing, and starring as the Caped Crusader. […]

In May, students for the for-profit American College of Education were running into some problems.  Their access to email accounts and course information was locked down by Google, who had disabled their accounts.  The reason why?  A fired IT worker for the American College of Education locked the school out of their Google cloud account.
