Welcome back from the weekend. Hope you've gotten your share of chips, dips, and beer and Katy Perry's Pepsi Half time show..Now on to a new week, and the stuff that news is made of...

Another one in the books-Super Brawl 49 28-24 New England over Seattle....Tom Brady was in great form throwing passes and Seahawks Linebacker Bruce Irvin reciprocated with throwing some punches instigating  a fight 18 seconds before the end of the game. By the way Irvin was ejected from the game as New England went on to win.

The 102nd Alfalfa Dinner Saturday night was closed to the press, but Politico Playbook printed some of the top quips and quotes from the three speakers:

Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) had this instant classic, which was the talk of the after-party: “Jeb Bush looks like he’s running for president. So now we know what the Bush family means by ‘no child left behind.’” Other memory makers---Robert Gates, former Defense secretary, and this year’s Alfalfa president: “When it comes to drones, I do think we need to reduce their number. The 435 we have in the House is enough. …

“Mike Bloomberg had a tough time as mayor of New York. The city’s soda vendors turned their backs on him. …entertainment provided by North Korea's number 1 pop/rocket launcher star

****The Most Lethal Sniper in the world is a British Royal Marine who served tours in Afghanistan in 2006/2007 and recorded 173 kills (a conservative number-which could boost the number). He has not been identified-so Michael Moore can't target him. By the way Michael Moore is preparing for a new movie in which he plays an elite team member who is a sniper that has recorded menu kills at various fast food restaurants.

First and goal Seattle on the 1 yard line---think I'll pass on this one. What kind of a play was that? Pete Carroll blames himself, but the offensive coordinator blames his tight end for missing the route. Either way, the costly interception by New England went on to be a pivotal point in their winning the game 28-24. Also the fight at 18 seconds before the end of the game has sparred a new NFL idea---holding a half time bare knuckles fist a cuffs between opposing cheerleader squadsbad girls club animated GIF Seahawk Cheerleader preparing for bare knuckles Super brawl 50
