If you had the Patriots in last night’s game against the Colts, blame the guy in the picture. Otherwise, you probably had an equally frustrating weekend where most of the odds-on favorites in the NFL took losses.
But somehow Jeff Mullen keeps thriving on and had another remarkable weekend going 11-4 to take sole possession of first place in the AFY football pool. Danny from Foxxx Modeling was runner-up at 10-4. Both gents have Baltimore against Cleveland tonight, but the way the schedule’s been going, that’s no sure thing.
