Running up the score inappropriate?

Clock stopped after the touchdown
and the Saints called time out.
You may be the only one who
thought that is was "classless."
(and it wasn't close to ten minutes.)

I was not the only one who thought it. Be it as it may. I have never been a fan of New Orleans and their fans have usually not led the league in "classiness" anyway. Who dat?

In fact, I don't even think the CBS announcers made note of that milestone or when Gronkowski broke the TE record. In any event, the game didn't stop for either.

I did think it was classless of Brees and New Orleans to stop the game for almost 10 min while they ran around the field slapping Brees on the back. Give him an ovation, and get on with the game.

You didn't see the game stop for Brady, because he didn't break the record, or reach the milestone. Hint, at that point Brees had the record and the milestone was gone, and Brady was well short of Brees' record.
