Peyton Manning shook off a bleeding right thumb after banging it on an opponent's helmet to throw for 305 yards and three scores and lead the Denver Broncos to a 34-14 victory over the New Orleans Saints on Sunday night. San Francisco scores in 10th inning to defeat Detroit 4-3, capture second World Series in three years on Sunday night. Giants are using Tigers' formula PHT: As the lockout trudges onward, a pair of all-star goalies are now considering leaving North America to get work in Europe. CFT's Fifth Quarter: No. 1 'Bama, No. 2 Oregon, No. 4 K-State and No. 5 Notre Dame all held serve in impressive fashion — and after looking at each team's remaining schedule, it's not unthinkable that all four could finish unbeaten. Notre Dame Central: No. 5 Irish KO No. 8 OU CFT: 'Bama, K-State, ND 1-2-3 in latest BCS CFT: 'Bama unanimous No.

Key:

  • Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
