HIT AND RUN
Teams break scoring mark
The 80 points scored by New Orleans and Green Bay in the Saints’ 51-29 win Monday night put the NFL at 837 points for the weekend, the most since the 788 scored most recently last December.
Guilty pleas entered in Whizzinator case
George Wills and Robert Catalano, whose company sold a device known as the Whizzinator that helped men cheat on drug tests, pleaded guilty Monday to two conspiracy counts in federal court in Pittsburgh. The Whizzinator is a prosthetic penis that comes with a heating element and fake urine. Feds say the goal of it was to help pass drug tests. The men face up to eight years in prison, a half-million-dollar fine or both.
WHIZZER’S TAKE: Justice is served. Or, to put it another way: These guys just got served. It’s bad enough they are trying to help athletes pass drug tests, but they also drag my good name through the mud along with them. At least they could have contacted me about naming rights. Throw the book at them.
