1. On Monday, the NFL suspended New England Patriot quarterback Tom Brady for four games for his role in Deflategate and took two draft picks away from the team.

6. George Zimmerman, who was acquitted of murder charges in the 2012 hooting death of an unarmed black teenager in Florida, suffered a minor wound after being shot at in his vehicle on Monday. That’s terrible, are your sure he was only slightly wounded?

8. Bangladesh’s Supreme Court on Monday banned the use of their national anthem s a ringtone for mobile telephones or for any other commercial purpose. And, if they think that’s offensive, just wait until they hear a Pitbull song.
9. Over the weekend, WNBA players Brittney Griner and Glory Johnson got married. Unsurprisingly, there was no best man.
10. In a recent interview, Jeb Bush said he would have done the same as his brother in deciding to go to war in Iraq if he had been president at the time. Proving that Jeb doesn’t know the definition of the word “distancing.”
