See, the MARTA people, the Martians, renamed the train line that goes where all the Asian people live the “yellow line.” And “yellow,” everyone knows, is the worst Coldplay song ever invented.

We'll deal with why that may be further down this list, but for now can I just point out: YOU WILL NOT FIND YELLOW FUCKING SUBMARINE ON THIS LIST! I really shouldn't need to explain why.

"Peyton Manning only played three-quarters of the game, because the Saints did such a great job keeping the Colts offense off the field..." Time of possession: New Orleans 30:11, Indianapolis 29:49.
