Fox canceled the Mindy Project
After three seasons, Fox cancelled Mindy Kaling’s sitcom. There’s still some hope though, there’s an online campaign for Hulu to pick the show up for a forth season. What about the baby?!
The jury is in on ‘Deflategate’
Wednesday afternoon, the NFL released its investigation on whether or not the New England Patriots intentionally deflated balls in a game against the Colts. Through text messages between employees, ball measurements from halftime and more, the report found that it is more probable than not that the Patriots employees, “participated in a deliberate plan to circumvent the rules by releasing air from Patriots game balls after the examination of the footballs by NFL game officials at the AFC Championship Game.”
