Super Bowl Ratings
We got some conflicting reports this morning. Some news headlines said Sunday's Super Bowl was the most watched game ever. We did some digging and got the stats. Turns out it fell SHORT of last year's record number of 111.3 million. Only 108.4 million tuned in to see the Ravens beat the Niners.
Here's an updated rundown of the TOP FIVE audiences in U.S. TV history:
1.) The Giants' Super Bowl victory last year: 111.3 million viewers.
2.) The Packers' Super Bowl victory over the Steelers in 2011: 111 million viewers
3.) The Ravens' Super Bowl victory on Sunday: 108.4 million viewers
4.) The Saints' Super Bowl victory over the Colts in 2010: 106.5 million viewers
5.) The series finale of "M*A*S*H" in 1983: 106 million viewers

We're feeling bad for Vegas this morning. That safety at the end of the Super Bowl Sunday cost bookmakes MILLIONS. It was 50-1 odds that San Fran would get a safety. Oops, it happened. Also, record in the betting world this Super Bowl. $99.7 million total was bet.
Over the weekend, Rush Henrietta's Bay Bailey made a game-winning halfcourt shot to beat Greece Athena. Not only did it go viral here in Rochester, but nationwide. It was Sportscenter's #1 play of the week. Check it out:
Redneck News
State Police reported stopping a vehicle for running a stop sign at Fairville Maple Ridge Road and Route 88 in the Town of Arcadia at 4 p.m. on Monday (1/28).
The driver initially gave the trooper a false name and as he (the Trooper) was walking back to his car, the driver took off. The driver attempted to go to a friend’s house on Ressue Road in Arcadia.
Samarian Brown, age 42, of Route 88 in Newark was taken into custody and charged with numerous vehicle and traffic violations and False Impersonation, Resisting arrest, Unlawfully Fleeing a P o l i c e O f fi c e r, A g g r a v a t e d U n l i c e n s e d Operation in the 2nd Degree and Criminal Possession of a Controlled Substance in the 7th Degree- vicodin.
Brown, who was to begin a 60 day sentence at the Wayne County Jail for a DWI conviction this week, was arraigned on the new charges and remanded to jail on $2000 cash/$4000 bond. She will reappear in Arcadia Town Court on February 6th.
What started out as friends coming over for some beers to the home of William Knapp in Sodus Point , ended up in an Assault in the 2nd Degree charge on Friday (1/25) at 6 p. m. During the gathering an argument ensued.
Adolph M. Asch, age 66, of Route 414, on Sodus Point allegedly grabbed Knapp’s cane and hit him in the head causing a laceration. Knapp refused to go to the hospital. Asch was arraigned and remanded to jail on No Bail awaiting his appearance in Sodus Point Court.
Another sizzling relationship just went up in ashes.
Deputies say Charles Hansen dipped his girlfriend of six-months into the hot coals of a fire pit in Boca Raton, reports the South Florida Sun-Sentinel.
Yes, alcohol was involved.The couple had been drinking and barbecuing when they reportedly began to feud.
The 58-year-old Lake Worth man then allegedly grabbed the woman and pushed her into the fire pit, holding her down for at least a minute.
Now cops get to rake him over the coals.
Maybe he was hungry and thought he'd just wing it or thought he'd better start to stockpile some wings for the Super Bowl.
Kenneth Thomas Amarite, 48, of Vero Beach, allegedly stuck $4.14 worth of chicken wings from the deli of a Vero Beach Publix into the front of his pants, reports Will Greenlee in his Off the Beat blog for TCPalm.com in Stuart.
A manager detained Amarite until a deputy arrived, who clipped his wings and sent him to the slammer.

Black History Month with Willie
With Street Willie in studio, Wease decided to share the "Little Known Black History Facts." Wease shared the first fact, "Half of President Obama celebrates it." And Willie just said, "Huh?" Here's some other funny ones:
--Tyler Perry's success proves that black filmmakers can be just as awful as white filmmakers.
--To Tiger Woods, this is just February.
--Jackie Robinson was not only the first African American to play Major League Baseball . . . he was also the last player who didn't use steroids.
--It doesn't affect 99.9% of the people who drive Volvos.
Bar Refaeli and the Geek
It was probably the most iconic ad of the Super Bowl... Model Bar Reaeli and the Geek making out!
We're hearing from the "geek" for the first time since the ad ran Sunday Night. His name is JESSE HEIMAN, and he's known as the "World's Greatest Extra", because he's been in TONS of movies and TV shows.
Some appearances include "Spider-Man", "Old School", "The Social Network", "Glee", "Curb Your Enthusiasm", "Arrested Development" and "NCIS", just to name a few.
Here's Jesse talking with Showbiz Tonight:
Wease Vs. Doreen
It usually happens once a week. A fight between Wease and Doreen. This week it has to do with Sammy. Doreen wants him to do homework, Wease doesn't push it on him. Doreen is fed up with Wease's "non-chalant" attitude. It's the PARENTS job to make sure kids to the homework. Wease wants Sammy to enjoy life, learn things from life, and put the homework on the back burner. What should Wease do? Stay strong? Or give in?
This spewed into another fight story. Wease and Doreen went on a date night a couple weeks ago... with four gay guys and another couple. Doreen just wants a date with the two of them. On the way home, they started arguing back and forth with it ending Wease calling Doreen the "C" word!! Doreen demanded to get out of the car, and threw Wease's keys into the snowy lawn, and made him walk home. When he got home, she drove him back to get the keys. Here's the twist, she FAKED throwing the keys.
Greece Brawl
There is video on the web today of students fighting in the Greece Athena parking lot. We called Lieutenant Jason Helfer of the Greece Police Department to get the latest. Helfer told us there was 13 total charges on 11 students. As for the cause of the fight, he's heard unconfirmed reports that it was either about a girl, a smashed cell phone, or water splashed on one of the students. Helfer is urging anyone who has information (more video, email, facebook posts) to please call the Greece Police Department at 865-9200.
Worst Country Songs of All-Time
Doreen is a big country music fan so we get a chance to talk about a list we found in our prep...
This list is kind of "out there", and that's why I like it. The Boot asked their fans on Facebook and Twitter to answer this question: "What's the worst country song, that unbelievably to you, was a big hit?"
--People came through with plenty of songs and the reasons why they hated them. The Boot took into account votes AND comments to come upwith their list. Here's the Top 10:
1.) "Red Solo Cup", Toby Keith
2.) "Achy Breaky Heart", Billy Ray Cyrus
3.) "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together", Taylor Swift
4.) "Honky Tonk Badonkadonk", Trace Adkins
5.) "Save a Horse (Ride a Cowboy)", Big and Rich
6.) "She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy", Kenny Chesney
7.) "Watermelon Crawl", Tracy Byrd
8.) "Stuck Like Glue", Sugarland
9.) "Dirt Road Anthem", Jason Aldean
10.) "That Don't Impress Me Much", Shania Twain
Doreen agrees that most of these songs aren't very good, but Wease gets their popularity. Most of them are fun, singalong in the bar type of tunes with high energy, and a listener tells us the the Trace Adkins song has a video with lots of hot girls in short shorts.
Wow that is a sexy video.
Gone To The Dogs
A Niagara County Sheriffs deputy and New York state trooper investigating a report Saturday found several dozen Pomeranian dogs living with three people in filthy conditions inside a home at 6603 South Royal Parkway.
According to the sheriff’s report, the deputy was “unable to ignore the overwhelming odor of animal urine and feces” as they spoke with family members.
Ellouise Magrum, the homeowner, told patrol that there were “a few” dogs in the home. She added that she and a second female have their own bedroom and a male sleeps on the living room couch because a bedroom had been turned into a puppy nursery.
Town of Lockport Dog Warden Barry Kobrin was contacted, and Kobrin told officers that he had been trying to contact Magrum for the past month.
Officers looked inside the convertd bedroom and were overcome by a foul odor. Upon further investigation, 60 Pomeranians were counted, including 35 of various ages in small pens and carriers inside the “nursery.” The other 25 dogs were found in two downstairs rooms, contained in small pens.
Kobrin requested the SPCA to respond. However, SPCA officials, after they arrived, said they do not have the capabilities to transport and house 60 dogs.
Kobrin told patrol that he will care for the dogs until Monday morning when the SPCA will return and remove all 60 dogs.
A Town of Lockport Building Inspector arrived and condemned the house until it is professionally cleaned and inspected.
Magrum, 50, was charged with two zoning ordinances, unlicensed dogs, excessive noise and harboring illegal dogs. She was arraigned before Town Justice Raymond E. Schilling, who released her until a Feb. 5 return court date.
Due to the living conditions, patrol made a report with Child Protective Services as well.
Bonus... TEASES!!!
