That was a wild Sunday… first time in history we had 2 OT games! The 1st game will be remembered as a bit sloppier and highly controversial while the 2nd game will always leave us wanting more time. Despite how anyone “feels”, the Patriots were the favorite to win that game. The regular season goes out the window and it’s simply about conducting business in the post season (unless you have bad officiating), which the Patriots continue to be prepared for time after time. It’s why you don’t bet against Brady unless you’re hedging… which a lot of folks wisely did yesterday. Mahomes is undoubtedly the future and will have his handful of rings shortly. He could very well evolve the QB position and take it to the next level. In my humble opinion, that was the Super Bowl. Amazing game!
So let’s taco bout some stuff. All Super Bowl picks have been accounted for in total points and rankings. As a refresher, if you pick one team correctly… 10 points… both teams… 30 points. This year we had multiple offenders that actually picked both teams correctly. Meghan was one of those, so she turned her week 20 frown upside down and now sit-ith on top of the leader board once again. PT pulled a similar move but went all-in on his picks. With a monster week, he’s now in the prime hot tub seat… which is generally where the jets hit your vertebrae and/or sides in just the right spots.
I’m an advocate of finishing strong until the end once you start something, but here’s the spoiler: (1) If you have less points than Danita in the main pool, you don’t have the opportunity for a pay day :(. (2) If you have less points than Rob in the hot tub… you’re finished (yea, I missed the cutoff by 2 points). For those in the money race, this season will likely be the closest finish to date!! Good luck!!!
