Told that Williams had taken the lead after three weeks of the Pigskin Pick ’Ems contest, one newsroom observer paused for a moment, then asked, “TOM Williams?” How soon they forget, for TW was second in the contest last year to Joe Scalzo (five-time winner, yada, yada, yada). Williams went 18-2 last week to take a one-game lead over Scalzo, whose reaction we all expected — he pouted. Staying close were Pete Mollica and Bill Sullivan, and WFMJ’s Dana Balash is close too. The rest of the panel … well, let’s just say one of them might soon be joining Charlie Frye out in Seattle, traded for a sixth-round Fearless Forecaster.
