Happy Hour: Mea Culpa
- Titans owner Bud Adams wasted no time getting his apology out there after a video of him flipping off the Buffalo Bills with both hands at Sunday’s game surfaced on the internet and immediately went viral. Unfortunately this didn’t fend off the $250,000 fine. [WTVF]
- Former Councilwoman Pam Murray, who was ousted by District 5 voters with a margin of only two votes, may take legal action to challenge the election results. [Tennessean]
- An MTSU professor was sentenced to 12 years months and one day in jail after being found guilty of a multimillion-dollar mortgage fraud. [WSMV]
- TDOT estimates that Highway 64 in East Tennessee will have to remain closed for two months while they clean up that huge rockslide that someone caught on video last week. [WSMV]
- Careful on the way home tonight! Rush hour could get a little messy. [Nashville WX]
- Sheriff Daron Hall made the choice to cancel his scheduled appearance before a group in DC that was declared a hate group by Southern Poverty Law Center. This is actually the second time he’s had to do this. [City Paper]

Bright & Early: Fly Away Home Edition
Good morning, Nashville. We can’t believe that it’s Monday again and we’re looking at a third straight Titans win. But do you know what else we are looking at? Oh, just this video of 86-year old Titans owner Bud Adams flipping not one, not two, but about three billion birds at the Buffalo Bills on Sunday. In this world of cell phone cameras, it was on Youtube within minutes and now the league is looking into the incident with a possible fine attached.
- Oak Ridge wins again. If you asked the average person where they thought the world’s fastest supercomputer was housed, they probably wouldn’t guess Tennessee. However, Oak Ridge is now home to a computer that can apparently do 1.75 petaflops or something (whatever that means) making it the fastest in the world.
- Female DUIs on the rise. According to some national studies, the number of women charged with DUIs has increased 30% in the last ten years. WKRN talks to some Metro Police officers to get their take on the situation.
- Bits & pieces. News flash: People are not excited about paying for parking meters on Saturdays … In case you missed Jay-Z and are as sad about it as we are, here are some pictures … Nashville’s first winery opens today in Belle Meade.
