It was another ho-hum week for New England – the Patriots steamrolled the Los Angeles Rams 26-10 to improve to 12-2 – and from the field in our “Beat ‘The Putz’” pro football pick’em contest.
A total of 62 percent of our total Week 13 entries tied my 8-5 record. Rita Hurt, of Westfield won our weekly prize (a gift certificate to the Tavern Restaurant) in overtime, so to speak.
Hurt emerged victorious from a five-way tie for first place with a record of 11-2 with the exact tiebreaker total of 47 points. Nice job!
