It's really, really not

Let's play "Complete the Thought."

Scott Stapp is to Creed as __________ is to ____________.

OK. Answers, please. Anyone have "Sting" and "Police"? Didn't think so. We had "stop" and "f*cking talking." But that's just us.

The Police brought a mix of ska and punk and pop and later turned in three of the best songs in a row on any album, from Every Breath You Take to King of Pain to Wrapped Around Your Finger.

After a bitter breakup, all three members of The Police went on to pretty successful careers. And Sting is a rock God capable of mad amounts of tantric sex and stuff, while Stapp shows up at Celebrity Poker Showdown so self-involved that an entire table of self-involved celebrities wants him out immediately.

You decide on your own where the former Creed crooner's career belongs in rock history. What's that sound? Right, then.
