1. The Wells report has been released and it doesn't look good for Tom Brady.

The long-awaited DeflateGate report was released at last. The report concluded that "it is more than probable" that New England Patriots personnel tampered with balls and that Tom Brady likely knew of the deflation. A series of text messages between a locker room attendant and an assistant equipment manager discuss needles and even refer to one man as "the deflator."

While the report seems to exonerate coach Bill Belichick and the Patriots organization as a whole, Gregg Doyel is skeptical the scheme was dreamed up by two low-level employees.

3. An Indiana-born executive made $82.6 million in just seven months.

Turns out overseeing Apple's online and in-person stores is a pretty sweet gig for New Palestinian native Angela Ahrendts. That compensation package made her the best-paid female executive in the country in 2014.

Russell Taylor faces charges of child exploitation and child pornography. While being held in Marion County Jail, he attempted to kill himself. Officials confirm he is still alive.
