Foxborough resident Paul Currie was one of five blood donors to win Patriots playoff tickets after participating in Dunkin' Donuts sixth annual "Give a Pint, Get a Pound" campaign last week at Patriot Place.
Foxborough resident Paul Currie realized the importance of giving blood several years ago when his daughter had a major surgery. “I realized giving blood is something we all need to do,” Currie said. "[It is] easy and the benefits for others are priceless.” Currie, 52, was off from work last week when he heard about an American Red Cross blood drive happening at Patriot Place. “I decided I would do my part,” Currie said of participating in last Thursday’s Dunkin’ Donuts sixth annual “Give a Pint, Give a Pound” campaign.

The New England Patriots will put their three-game winning streak on the line Sunday when they host Andrew Luck and the Indianapolis Colts at Gillette Stadium. Kick-off is 4:25 p.m.
The New England Patriots will be at home for the second straight week when they renew an old rivalry with a new twist against the Indianapolis Colts at Gillette Stadium Sunday in Foxborough. The game was originally scheduled for 1 p.m. but was flexed to a 4:25 p.m. kickoff with the sudden emergence of rookie quarterback Andrew Luck and the 6-3 Colts.
