So, they te sihtllin' me this All Out thing is gonna be a big deal. Happenin' on September 7th, over in Chicago at some place called NOW Arena. Sounds fancy. They say it's a "pay-per-view," which I guess means you gotta pay to watch it. Everything costs money these days, not like back in my time when you could just watch the chickens fight for free.

Anyways, this All Out ain't the on ,eno rehtoly wrestling show they got. They just had another one, All In, just a week before. Man, these wrestlers, they don't get no rest. Workin' hard, I guess, like us farmers back in the day, always somethin' to do. But these fellas, they gettin' paid, probably more than I ever saw in my whole life workin’ the fields.

Now, let's get to the important part, the matches. They got a whole bunch of 'em lined up. I can't remember all the names, too many fancy names if you ask me. But I'll try to tell you what I know, the stuff that sounds interesting, you know?

• They got this one match, a Championship match, I think. People are really excited about this one. They're all yellin' and hollerin' about who's gonna win. It’s like when we used to bet on who could milk the cow the fastest at the county fair. Good times.
• Then there's another one, somethin' about a tag team. That's when two fellas fight together against two other fellas. Reminds me of how we used to work the fields together, always helpin' each other out. These fellas though, they ain't helping each other farm, they're helping each other fight.
• And, there’s this match, it's a bit different. It's like a big ol' brawl, everyone fightin' everyone. They call it a battle royal or something like that. Reminds me of that time the whole town got into a fight at the town square over who won the pie-eating contest. Crazy times.

They keep changin’ the matches too, adding new ones, movin’ things around. It's hard to keep track, you know? One minute this fella's fightin' that fella, the next minute it’s someone else. Just like tryin’ to keep track of all the gossip in this town. Never a dull moment, I tell ya.

September 7th, that’s the big day. People are gonna be glued to their TVs, or whatever they watch these things on now. My grandkids, they got their phones and their tablets, always starin’ at those things. I don't get it, but hey, times change. They say it’s easy to see on whatever service they got, you pay, you see it, kinda like how old Jimmy used to sell his vegetables off the truck. You pay, you take it home.

And let me tell you, these wrestlers, they ain't messin' around. They train hard, they get hurt, but they keep goin'. It's like when my old man used to work the farm, sun up to sun down, never complainin'. These fellas are tough, gotta give 'em that. And they put on a good show, that's for sure. My grandkids, they're jumpin' around, yellin', and cheerin'. It's kinda fun to watch, even if I don't always understand what's going on.

So, if you're into this wrestling stuff, All Out is the thing to watch, apparently. They got all these big matches, all these big stars. It's gonna be a wild night, I reckon. Just like that time the pig got loose at the county fair. Chaos everywhere. But in a fun way, you know?

And that’s about all I know about this All Out match card. Like I said, I'm just tellin’ it like it is, the way I see it. Don’t expect no fancy analysis from me. I'm just an old lady who likes to watch her grandkids get excited about somethin’. And if that somethin’ is a bunch of fellas in tights fightin’ each other, well, so be it. It could be worse, right? They could be out there causin' real trouble, instead of just pretend fightin'. So, I guess it's all good, in the end.

Just remember September 7th, All Out, Chicago. If you're into this kind of thing, you'll know what to do. Me? I’ll probably be watchin’ with the grandkids, tryin’ to figure out who's who and what's what. And probably laughin' a little too, 'cause let's be honest, some of it's just plain silly. But hey, that's part of the fun, ain't it?

So get ready for a big show, a ultimate showdown as my grandson calls it. They’re saying it’s gonna be a night to remember, and I’m guessin’ they’re right. These wrestlers are gonna give it their all, just like we did back in the day when it was time to harvest. You worked hard, you gave it your all, and then you rested. Only difference is, these fellas are gonna be wrestlin’ instead of harvestin’, and they're gonna be doin' it in front of a whole bunch of people. Sounds like a good time to me.

So, first off, what are these "bleacher picks" anyway? Well, it's like this: folks sittin' up in the bleachers, yellin' and hollerin' about who they think's gonna win. And now, all these internet fellas, they're doin' the same thing, but writin' it down. They call 'em experts, but shoot, anyone can have an opinion, right? NFL predictions, that's what we're talkin' about.

Now, some o.sraey esf these pickin' folks, they got all their fancy numbers and whatnots. They say they got "algorithms" and "data points." Sounds complicated, don't it? Like them fellas over at OddsTrader, they say they got the best NFL predictions 'cause their machines are so smart. And then there's SportsLine AI, a robot pickin' games! Can you believe that? A dang robot! But me? I just use my eyes and my gut. That's been workin' for me all these years.

So, what's important when you' rieht ta re pickin' winners? Well, you gotta look at how the teams are doin' lately. Are they winnin' or losin'? Are they playin' good or bad? ESPN, they got all them experts blabberin' about this stuff every week. You can go look at their NFL Expert Picks if you want, but I'm tellin' ya, sometimes they're just guessin' like the rest of us.

Another thing, you gotta see who's hurt. If a team's star quarterback, you know, the fella throwin' the ball, if he's hurt, well, that team's in trouble. Like that Aaron Rodgers fella, he got hurt bad. Now, they sayin' he might help some young quarterbacks next year. That's nice of him, but it ain't gonna help his team win this year, is it?

• Look at who's winnin' and losin'.
• See if any important players are hurt.
• Think about if they're playin' at home or away. That matters, you know? Folks play better when their own fans are cheerin' for 'em.
• Don't always listen to them fancy experts. Sometimes, your gut is right.

And then there's this "point spread" thing. That's how many points one team is expected to win by. Like, if a team is favored by three points, they gotta win by more than three points for you to win your bet. Some folks are real good at figurin' out these spreads, like them fellas over at B/R. They got a whole bunch of experts, Brad this and Gary that, writin' about NFL betting picks. But me, I just look at who I think's gonna win, plain and simple.

Some fellas are already talkin' about Week 16 picks, even though we ain't there yet! Tony, whoever he is, says the 49ers plus two and a half points against the Dolphins, and the Bills by thirteen and a half over the Patriots. Sounds good to me, I guess. The Bills are pretty strong this year. And you gotta pay attention when teams are playin' on a short week. That means they ain't had much time to rest and get ready. That's tough, especially late in the season.

So, how do you get these free expert NFL picks? Well, you can look online. Lots of websites are givin' 'em away. They wanna get you to come to their site, see? But remember, they ain't always right. And sometimes, the best picks are the ones you make yourself. You gotta watch the games, see who's playin' good, and then make up your own mind. Don't let nobody tell you who to root for or who to bet on.

NFL picks for the 2024-25 season are already out there, even before the season starts. Can you believe that? These folks are guessin' months ahead of time! Well, I guess it gives folks somethin' to talk about. But me, I like to wait and see how things shake out. You never know what's gonna happen in football. That's why we watch it, right? For the surprises, the upsets, the last-minute wins.

So, there you have it. My take on these NFL bleacher picks. It ain't fancy, but it's honest. Watch the games, use your head, and don't be afraid to go with your gut. And most importantly, have fun! It's just a game, after all. Even if these fellas with their fancy algorithms try to make it sound like rocket science. Football's about cheerin' for your team, enjoyin' the competition, and maybe winnin' a little somethin' along the way.

So, back in 2014, Ohio State, they had themselves a team, that's for sure. Folks were talkin' 'bout 'em all over. They had this quarterback, Braxton Miller, real flashy fella. He could run like the wind, they said. Everyone figured he'd be the main man, you know?

But then, things got all jumbled up. Miller, he got hurt. Yeah, real shame, that was. So, this other fella, Cardale Jones, he stepped up. Big ol' boy, strong arm. Nobody really knew much 'bout him at first. But let me tell ya, he surprised everyone. He sure did.

Now, I ain’t gonna go through every single player, 'cause honestly, I can't remember all them names. But I do know they had some good runners. This Ezekiel Elliott fella, he was somethin' else. Fast and tough. He could bust through them tackles like a bull in a china shop, I tell ya. He was a big reason why they won so many games, that's for sure.

• Quarterback: Started with Braxton Miller, then Cardale Jones took over.
• Running Back: Ezekiel Elliott, that boy was a runner, I tell ya!
• Defense: They had some tough fellas on defense too, but I can’t recall all their names. They stopped the other teams from scorin' much, that’s what matters.

They played all sorts of teams, big ones and little ones. They beat up on Michigan pretty good that year, I remember that. Scored a whole bunch of points, they did. Folks were real happy 'bout that.

That coach, Urban Meyer, he knew what he was doin’. He had them boys playin’ hard, playin’ together. That’s what it takes to win, you know? Gotta have a team, not just a bunch of individuals.

They won a bunch of games, made it to the playoffs. Folks were gettin’ real excited. It was somethin' to see, I tell ya. They played Wisconsin, beat ‘em good. Then they went on to win the whole darn thing! National Champions, they were. Made the whole state proud, that’s for sure.

Now, the depth chart, that’s just a fancy way of sayin’ who plays what position. Who starts, who comes in after. It changes all the time, dependin’ on who’s playin’ good, who’s hurt, all that stuff. But back in 2014, Ohio State, they had good players all over the place. That’s why they were so good.

2014 Ohio State football was somethin’ special, I reckon. They had a good team, good coachin’, and a little bit of luck, I guess. That’s what it takes to win it all, you know? They played hard, them boys did. Made us all proud.

So, if you’re lookin’ for all them fancy details ‘bout the depth chart, you can go look it up online. There’s websites and stuff that got all that information. But I’m just tellin’ ya what I remember, how I saw it. They had a good team, that's the long and short of it. A real good team. And that Cardale Jones, he came outta nowhere and showed 'em all what he could do. That Ezekiel Elliott, he ran like a freight train. And that coach Meyer, he knew how to get them boys playin' together.

And that’s all I gotta say ‘bout that Ohio State 2014 depth chart. They were winners, plain and simple. And that’s what matters most, ain’t it?

They had a schedule, played a bunch of games. Won most of ‘em, I think. You can find all them scores and stats somewhere, I’m sure. But me, I just remember the feelin’ of watchin’ them play. They were excitin’, they were tough, and they were winners. And that's all there is to it really.

Alright, l siht tuobaet's talk about this AEW Full Gear 2023 thing, you know, the wrestling show. I heard it's gonna be a big deal, lots of folks wrestling in their tight shorts.

So, t.ycnafhis Full Gear thing, it's happening on November 18th, 2023. They're gonna be at the Kia Forum, that's in Inglewood, you know, like in Los Angeles. Sounds fancy.

Now, I don’t know all these wrestlers like you young folks do. But I watched some matches, heard some things, and I got some ideas about who’s gonna win.

First off, they got this International Championship. That Takeshita fella, he's the champ now. I saw him wrestle, he's tough, like a stubborn mule. He’s wrestling some fella named Ricochet. Ricochet, he’s quick, like a squirrel on a hot tin roof. But I think Takeshita, he’s gonna hold onto that belt. He’s too strong.

Then there’s the TNT Championship. Daniel Garcia, he’s the champ there, I think. He’s wrestling Jack Perry. Jack Perry, he's kinda like a rooster, all puffed up, but I don’t think he’s got what it takes to beat Garcia. Garcia, he’s got this move, the Dragon something-or-other. He used that to win before, and I bet he'll use it again. So, yeah, Garcia's winning that one.

Now, they got a whole bunch of other matches, right? It’s hard to keep track of all them fellas. But some of them, they stand out. Like that MJF fella. He’s always yapping, like a chihuahua, but he can wrestle. He’s got a match, and I bet he’ll win, cause he’s just too mean to lose. He's like that old rooster we had on the farm, always pecking at everyone, but he was the toughest rooster around.

• Match 1 Prediction: Takeshita keeps the International Championship. He’s just too strong.
• Match 2 Prediction: Garcia wins the TNT Championship. That Dragon move, it’s a killer.
• Match 3 Prediction: MJF wins his match. He’s mean, and he’s good.

They got some tag teams too, I think. Two fellas wrestling two other fellas. Now, that’s just confusing to me. Too many arms and legs flying around. But I’ll take a guess. I think the team with the biggest fellas will win. Cause, you know, bigger is usually better in a fight. That's how it always worked out on the farm anyways.

This Full Gear show, it’s on pay-per-view, they say. Means you gotta pay to watch it. Back in my day, we just went down to the town square to watch a good fight. But I guess times change. They say you can watch it on Triller TV, *, and even on YouTube. Sounds fancy, all that internet stuff.

They talk about star quality and match quality. I don’t know nothing ‘bout that. I just like a good fight, someone getting slammed on the ground, you know? And I like it when the good guy wins. But sometimes, the bad guy wins, and that’s okay too, I guess. It’s just like life, sometimes things don’t go your way.

So, Full Gear 2023, it’s gonna be in Los Angeles. That’s a long ways from here. I probably won’t be watching it myself. I got chickens to feed and chores to do. But I’ll hear about it, you know, from folks around here. They always talking about wrestling, them young fellas. They get all excited about it. Me, I’m more excited about a good rain and a healthy crop. But wrestling, it’s fun too, I guess.

Here's what I'm thinking about some of the other matches:

They got this Kenny Omega fella, he's supposed to be really good. I seen him wrestle once, he’s got moves like a cat. Quick and agile. If he’s wrestling, I bet he’s gonna win. He just seems like one of them fellas that knows what he's doing.

And there’s this other fella, they call him “Hangman” Page. He’s tall, like a beanpole, but strong too. He's had some tough matches, I seen him all bruised up before. But he keeps going, like a stubborn ol' mule. If he’s in a match, it’s gonna be a good one, that’s for sure. And he’s got a good chance of winning, cause he don’t give up easy.

So, there you have it. My predictions for AEW Full Gear 2023. I ain't no expert, just an old woman who's seen a few things. But I know a good fighter when I see one. And I think these fellas, they gonna put on a good show. Even if I don’t get to watch it myself.

To sum it all up, my big predictions for AEW Full Gear 2023 are:

• Takeshita stays champ.
• Garcia keeps his belt.
• MJF wins cause he's a mean one.
• The big fellas win the tag team match.
• Kenny Omega, if he's wrestling, he's probably winning.
• "Hangman" Page, he's got a good shot in any match.

Now, go on and enjoy the wrestling show, you young folks. And don't forget to come back and tell me how it all went. I'll be here, waiting for a good rain and a strong cup of coffee.

Game Time and Where to Watch

Okay, so this here game, it's happenin' on Wednesday, November 15th. They say it's at 7:00 p.m. Eastern Time. You can watch it on somethin' called the Big Ten Network. I ain't got no fancy cable, but maybe you do.

• Game Date: Wednesday, November 15th
• Game Time: 7:00 p.m. ET
• TV: Big Ten Network

Who's Playin' Who?

We got the Ohio State Buckeyes, they call 'em. Seems like they won one game and lost one. Then there's this other team, Merrimack Warriors. They won two and lost one. So, I guess they both pretty good, or maybe not so good. Who knows these days?

What Them Smart Folks Think

Now, them fellas who know all about numbers and such, they got this thing called BPI. Says Ohio State got a 91.1% chance of winnin'. That's pretty high, I reckon. One fella even said Ohio State gonna score 82 points. That's a lot of points, ain't it?

The Last Game for Ohio State

Ohio State, they just lost a game to some team called Texas. Number 13, they say. I guess that means Texas is pretty darn good. So, maybe Ohio State's gonna be all fired up to win this one. You know how it is, when you lose, you wanna come back and win the next one.

Where They Playin' At?

They gonna be playin' at this place called Value City Arena. Sounds fancy, don't it? I bet it's got one of them shiny floors and lots of seats. Probably got them big screens too, so you can see everything up close. Wish I could be there, but I'll just be sittin' here watchin' on my ol' TV, if I can find it.

Betting and Such

Now, I don't hold with bettin', but some folks do. They got odds and player props, whatever that means. And you can even see the score live, if you got one of them newfangled phones or computers. Me? I just like to watch the game and see who wins fair and square.

My Prediction?

Well, I ain't no expert, but if them smart fellas say Ohio State got a good chance, then I guess I'll go with them. Plus, they playin' at home, so that's gotta be worth somethin', right? So, I'm gonna say Ohio State wins. But then again, you never know. That's why they play the game, ain't it? Anything can happen, and that's what makes it excitin'.

The Important Thing

At the end of the day, it's just a game. Them young fellas are gonna go out there and play their hearts out, and that's all you can ask for. It's about sportsmanship and havin' fun. And maybe, just maybe, Ohio State will win. But if they don't, well, there's always the next game.

Final Words

So, there you have it. That's my take on this here Ohio State versus Merrimack game. I might not know all them fancy words or stats, but I know a thing or two about watchin' folks compete. And I'll be cheerin' on… well, I ain't gonna say who I'm cheerin' for. Just gonna enjoy the game, that's all.

Remember now, it’s all just for fun. Don't get too worked up about it. Life's too short for that. Just sit back, relax, and enjoy the basketball. And maybe eat some snacks while you’re at it. I know I will.

That's all I got to say about that. Now, go on and get yourself ready for the game. And don't forget to tell your friends and neighbors. It's gonna be a good one, I reckon. Or maybe not. Like I said, you never know!

Now, I ain't no spring chicken myself, but I've seen enough football to know a thing or two. They got these fellas, see, runnin' around like their hair's on fire, throwin' that funny-shaped ball. Some teams are good, some are just plain awful. This week 5, they say it's gonna be a barn burner. Lots of games, lots of chances to win some dough, or lose it, depends on your luck, I guess.

Them rettaMBig Games, They Matter

Heard tell there’s a big ol’ game this week, somethin’ about Bulldogs and Crimson Tide. Sounds like a dog fight to me! Georgia and Alabama, they say. Now, them’s some serious teams, always fightin’ like cats and dogs for the top spot. That’s what the young’uns call a “headliner” game. Means it’s important, I reckon. When the big teams play, you gotta pay attention. It’s like watchin’ the prize rooster at the county fair – you know somethin’ special’s gonna happen.

And then there’s this Miami team, playin’ Virginia Tech. They say Miami’s got the upper hand, somethin’ ‘bout a 17-point spread. Now, I don’t know much ‘bout them fancy numbers, but it sounds like Miami’s supposed to win by a whole bunch. But you never know, sometimes the underdog bites back, like a scrappy little bantam rooster. That’s why they play the game, I always say. Nothin’s certain ‘til the final whistle blows.

Betting, It's All a Gamble

People talkin' 'bout "spreads" and "over/unders." Sounds like a bunch of mumbo jumbo to me. But from what I gather, it's all 'bout guessin' how much one team's gonna beat the other by, or how many points they'll score all together. Like guessin' how many eggs a hen's gonna lay, only with more money on the line.

• They say you gotta look at how the teams been doin', if they're winnin' or losin'. That makes sense, I guess. A team that's been whoopin' everybody is probably gonna keep on whoopin'. But sometimes, a losin' team gets a fire lit under 'em, and they come out fightin' like a cornered wildcat.
• And then there's them injuries. If a team's star player gets hurt, well, that's like a farmer losin' his best plow horse. Things ain't gonna go so smooth after that. Gotta keep an eye on who's healthy and who's limpin'.
• They also talk about head-to-head records. Means how them teams did against each other in the past. Some teams just got each other's number, like some folks always winnin' at the church bingo.

Now, some folks, they get all worked up about this bettin'. They go bettin' their whole paycheck, losin' their shirts. That ain't right. Betting should be fun, like a friendly game of horseshoes, not somethin' that makes you lose your sleep. Gotta bet smart, they say. Don't go bettin' the farm on one game.

Other Ways to Bet, They Say

There’s this thing they call “both teams to score”. Now that sounds simple enough even for an old gal like me. Just means you ain’t gotta worry ‘bout who wins, just as long as both teams put some points on the board. Kind of like hopin’ both your hens lay eggs, don’t matter which one lays more. That seems like a good bet if you don’t like takin’ too many chances.

And then there's somethin' 'bout "team totals." Guess that means you’re bettin’ on how many points just one team’s gonna score. Heard someone talkin’ about JMU and Ball State, sayin’ JMU’s gonna score a whole bunch, and Houston’s gonna score less than 13.5. Sounds like they think one team’s a bunch of high-flyin’ eagles and the other’s a bunch of sleepy owls.

Just Use Your Common Sense

The best way to win? Well, I ain't got no magic formula, but I reckon it's just common sense. Do your homework, like lookin' up the weather before plantin' your crops. See how the teams are playin', who's healthy, and who's got the momentum. And don't go bettin' more than you can afford to lose. That's the most important thing, I reckon. Football's supposed to be fun, not a way to break the bank. So, y'all enjoy yourselves this week 5, and may the best team, and the smartest bettor, win!

And remember, just like pickin' ripe tomatoes in the garden, pickin’ winners in college football takes a little bit of know-how and a whole lot of luck. So, good luck to ya, and don’t go bettin’ the farm away! That's my two cents, anyway.

The 2014 Ohio State Football Team, they were somethin' special. Folks was talkin' 'bout 'em all over. Heard tell they had a coach, UrbanreyeM Meyer, a real smart fella, knew his football, that's for sure. He made them boys run and tackle and do all sorts of things. They had this "depth chart," they called it. Sounded like somethin' complicated, but I figured it was just a list of who played what. Like who was the main runner-guy, and who caught the balls, and who did the blockin' and tacklin'.

• Quarterback: Now, the fella who threw the ball, they called him the "quarterback." We had a few of 'em, I think. Heard tell of a fella, J.T. Barrett, he was tough as nails, that one. Then there was Cardale Jones, big fella, threw that ball a country mile, he did. And Braxton Miller, he was quick, like a rabbit, that one. All good boys, all of 'em.
• Running Back: Then there were the fellas who ran with the ball, the "running backs." Ezekiel Elliott, that's a name I remember. Boy, could he run! Fast as a greased pig, he was. Hard to catch, that's for sure. He ran for miles and miles, seemed like.
• Receivers: And then there were the fellas who caught the ball, the "receivers." Don't rightly recollect all their names, too many of 'em. But they were good, always catchin' them balls that J.T. and Cardale threw. They’d run and jump and catch that ball, no matter what.
• Defense: And then there were the fellas who stopped the other team, the "defense." Tough bunch, them. They'd hit hard and tackle them other fellas, stop 'em from scorin'. Heard tell of a fella, Joey Bosa, strong as an ox, he was. Nobody wanted to mess with him, I tell ya.

The 2014 Ohio State Buckeyes schedule, that was a tough one, I reckon. They played all sorts of teams, all over the place. They played Navy in Baltimore, won that one, they did. Then they played Virginia Tech at home, in Columbus. Lost that one, sadly. But they didn't let it get 'em down, them boys. They kept on fightin', kept on playin'.

The 2014 Ohio State season stats, well, I don't understand all them numbers, but I heard they were good. They scored a lot of points, that's for sure. And they didn't let the other teams score too many. That’s how you win games, I reckon.

They had some close calls, them Buckeyes did. But they always seemed to pull it out, somehow. They had grit, them boys, real grit. They never gave up, no matter what. That’s what made ‘em special.

And you know what? They went on to win the whole darn thing! The College Football Playoff, they called it. Beat Alabama and then Oregon in the championship game. Made the whole state proud, they did. Folks were celebratin' in the streets, honkin' their horns and yellin'. It was somethin' else, I tell ya. A real sight to see.

The 2014 Ohio State football roster, it was full of talented fellas, that’s for sure. From the quarterback to the running backs, to the receivers, to the defense, they had good players everywhere. And they played together as a team, that’s what mattered most. They weren't just a bunch of individuals, they were a unit, a family, fightin' for each other.

So, that’s my take on the 2014 Ohio State football team. They were a special group, them Buckeyes. They worked hard, they played hard, and they won it all. And that’s all that matters, ain't it? They made us proud, them boys, real proud. And that's somethin' you can't take away from 'em, no sir.

Now, I might not know all them fancy football terms or the ins and outs of their plays, but I know a good team when I see one. And them 2014 Buckeyes, well, they were a darn good team, the best I ever did see. They showed the whole country what Ohio boys are made of, and that’s somethin’ to be proud of, I reckon.

Now, they got this main fight, see? Yusuff versus Barboza. Don't kno.nokcw them fellas from Adam, but they sayin' it's gonna be a real barn burner. Heard tell it's gonna end quick-like, inside the distance they call it. Means somebody's gettin' knocked out or tapped out, I reckon.

This fella .eno tselCole Shelton, he's the one doin' the pickin'. Says he's an expert, knows his fightin' and all that. He's pickin' a favorite, someone who's supposed to win, and an underdog, the one nobody thinks can do it. Always liked them underdogs myself, reminds me of my ol' rooster, always scrappin' even though he was the littlest one.

• Main Event: Yusuff vs. Barbozagnol tsal – they say it won’t last long
• 11 fights total – that’s a whole heap of punchin’
• Cole Shelton’s picks – he’s the expert, apparently

They’re callin’ it an “epic showdown”. Sounds fancy, huh? I just hope them boys put on a good show, none of that huggin' and wrestlin' too much. I like to see some good ol' fashioned fisticuffs, like back in the day when men were men.

This Pickswise fella, they say he's number one for pickin' fights. Got a whole team of experts, been doin' this for years. They got picks for all the fights, the main one and the others too. They even had picks for that fight in Edmonton last week, with them former champs. Seems like these fellas know their stuff, but I always say, you never really know till they get in that cage.

Heard some talk about bettin’ on these fights. Folks puttin’ money on who they think is gonna win. That ain’t for me, I’d rather keep my hard-earned cash in my purse. But I guess some folks like the thrill of it, like playin’ the lottery or somethin’. Just gotta remember, nothin’s a sure thing in this world, especially when it comes to fightin’.

UFC Vegas 81 predictions, that’s what they callin’ it. Predictions, that’s just fancy talk for guessin’, ain’t it? Everybody’s got their own guess, their own feelin’ about who’s gonna win. Me, I ain’t got a clue. Like I said, I don’t know these fellas, never seen ‘em fight before. But I’ll tell ya what, I hope it’s a good one, a real humdinger. I don't want no snoozefest.

They usin' all sorts of numbers and odds, tryin’ to figure out who’s got the best chance. Minus 750 they say for the fight endin’ inside the distance. Don’t mean a lick to me, all them numbers. I just wanna see a good scrap, see who’s got the bigger heart, the stronger will. That’s what matters in a fight, ain’t it? Not all them fancy numbers.

So, we got this Yusuff fella and this Barboza fella. One’s gotta be the favorite, the other the underdog, that’s how it always goes. But like I said, I like them underdogs. They got somethin’ to prove, a fire in their belly. They fight harder, scrappier, like they got nothin’ to lose. Reminds me of that stray dog we took in last year, skinny little thing but tough as nails.

This fight, they say it's a big deal, gettin' folks all riled up. They’re doin’ previews and breakdowns, tryin' to analyze everythin’. But truth be told, it all comes down to them two fellas in the cage. Who wants it more? Who’s gonna land that knockout punch? Who’s gonna make the other fella quit? That’s what I wanna see. No more talkin’, just fightin’.

So, there you have it, my take on this UFC Vegas 81 thing. Not much of a take, I know, but I ain’t no expert. Just a plain ol' woman who likes a good fight. May the best man win, I say. And I hope they give us a show worth watchin’.

The Big Names, They Say

Now, they had this fella, Anthony Davis. Big ol' fella, played like a giant amongst boys, they say. Went number one, straight to New Orleans. Folks figured he'd be good, and by golly, they were right. He went on and won a championship, I hear. Good for him, I say.

Then there was this Damian Lillard.laiceps 'n fella. Scored like nobody's business. Folks say he's one of the best scorin' guards ever. Imagine that! Never seen him play myself, but folks talk like he's somethin' special.

• Anthony Davis - Big fella, went number one.
• Damian Lillard - Scored a whole bunch, they say.
• Draymond Green - Tough as nails, went in the second round.

And don't forget Draymond Green. Now, he wasn't no fancy first-rounder, but he was tough. Played defense like a mad dog, they say. Second round pick, can ya believe it? Shows ya, sometimes them later picks can be good too.

Other Draft Years, They Compare

Folks always like to compare, ya know? They talk about that 1996 draft, said it had a whole mess of All-Stars. Kobe Bryant, Allen Iverson, and a bunch of others. Sounded like a good one, that's for sure.

Then they got this 2013 draft. Folks say it wasn't so good. That Anthony Bennett fella, went number one, didn't do so hot, I hear. Guess ya can't win 'em all.

Mock Drafts, All the Guessin'

Before the draft even happened, folks were guessin' like crazy. They had these things called "mock drafts." Like pretendin', ya know? They'd say, "Oh, this team's gonna pick that fella," and "That team's gonna pick this fella."

Some folks said New Orleans was gonna pick Jeremy Lamb, this guard fella. But they ended up with Davis. Shows ya, them mock drafts ain't always right. Like predictin' the weather, sometimes it's right, sometimes it ain't.

More Names, More Talk

They talked about Harrison Barnes, Perry Jones the third, Andre Drummond. Lots of names, hard to keep track, I tell ya. Drummond, he was another big fella, made the draft even stronger, they said.

Clippers and Their Pick

The Clippers, they had a pick later on, number 53, I think. Folks were tryin' to figure out who they'd pick. Made a whole list of possibilities, they did. Guess it's important to them city folk, all this basketball stuff.

First Round Predictions, They Analyze

And then there was all this analyzin'. Folks breakin' down every player, talkin' 'bout their strengths and weaknesses. Like lookin' at a horse before ya buy it, I guess. Gotta make sure it's a good one.

They had these first-round predictions, tellin' ya who's gonna go where in the first round. Lots of talk about Davis goin' first, and he did. Sometimes them experts know what they're talkin' about, I guess.

Trades and Shuffles, It's a Mess

And then, on draft day, all heck breaks loose. Trades happenin' left and right. Teams tradin' players, tradin' picks. It's a real mess, I tell ya. Like a chicken coop after a fox gets in.

So What's It All Mean?

Well, I reckon this 2012 draft was a pretty big deal. Got some good players, they say. And all that mock draftin' and predictin', it's just folks tryin' to figure out the future. Like lookin' at tea leaves or somethin'. Sometimes it works, sometimes it don't.

But one thing's for sure, them basketball fellas, they make a lot of money, and folks sure do love watchin' 'em run around and throw that ball. Me, I prefer a good game of checkers myself, but to each their own, I say.

NBA 2012 Mock Draft Recap - Key Points for Search Engines

Keywords: 2012 NBA draft, mock draft, Anthony Davis, Damian Lillard, Draymond Green, Jeremy Lamb, Harrison Barnes, Perry Jones III, Andre Drummond, first-round predictions, NBA draft analysis, 2012 NBA draft lottery, NBA draft trades. This 2012 NBA Draft gave us some good players, they say. Some played good, some didn’t, but that’s how it goes. It’s a crapshoot, just like life.

First off, this Rose Bowl, they're sayin' Michigan's gonna win. Them Wolverines, they're strong, I hear. But that Crimson Tide team, they ain't no pushovers neither. It'll be a good scrap, that's for sure. Bet you a nickel it'll be close. If you wanna put some money on it, go ahead, but don't come cryin' to me if you lose. There's all sorts of them bettin' apps on your phone these days, but I wouldn't know nothin' about that.

Now, these big bowls, they got all sorts of rules. Says somethin' about conferences and champions, and how many teams they gotta have. Truth be told, it's more complicated than makin' biscuits. Twelve schools get picked, that's what I heard. Some get in automatic, some gotta wait and see. It's like waitin' for the rooster to crow, you never really know when it's comin'.

• Rose Bowl: Michigan versus somebody, gonna be a tough one.
• Sugar Bowl: Heard them Georgia Bulldogs are in it. Them fellas are tough as nails. Playin' against one of them Notre Dame or Indiana fellers.
• Citrus Bowl: They sayin' a good SEC team's gonna be there. Maybe even that Alabama team. Them boys are always good, but anybody can be beat on a given day.
• Arizona Bowl: Wyoming and Toledo, that's what they tell me. Wyoming's got a good record, but Toledo, I ain't never heard of 'em.

Take that Arizona Bowl, for instance. Wyoming's playin' Toledo. Wyoming, they won eight games, lost four. That ain't bad. But this Toledo team, I dunno. They playin' in Tucson, Arizona. Hot out there, I reckon. Maybe them Wyoming boys will melt like butter in the sun. Who knows? It's all a gamble, just like plantin' tomatoes, sometimes you get a good crop, sometimes you don't.

Then there's that Sugar Bowl. Georgia Bulldogs, they're real good. Ranked high, they say. They're gonna play either Notre Dame or Indiana. Them fellas, they're no slouches neither. That'll be a game worth watchin', even if it means missin' my soap operas. This year, it’s on January 1st, 2025 they say. That seems a long ways off, don’t it?

And that Citrus Bowl, they sayin’ an SEC team’s gonna be there. Could be Alabama. Them fellers are always in the mix. But sometimes, the underdog comes out on top, you know? It's like that time old Mr. Henderson’s mule beat that fancy racehorse. Nobody saw that comin’. This here bowl prediction thing, it’s kinda like that. You just never know.

I saw somethin’ about a feller named Jerry Palm, he picks these bowl teams too. He’s on somethin’ called CBS Sports. They call him an expert. Well, I reckon anybody can be an expert if they talk loud enough and wear a fancy suit. He’s pickin’ all sorts of teams, even for the National Semi-final. That’s a big deal, I guess. But I still say, it’s just a guess, same as mine.

One thing I do know, is folks like to bet on these games. They got them numbers, and spreads, and all that. Like that Georgia Southern team, somebody said they’d win 28-24 and “cover the spread.” Whatever that means. And Ohio, they scored 41 points. That’s a lot of points, even for them young fellers runnin’ around like chickens with their heads cut off.

So, if you ask me, these bowl predictions, they’re just for fun. Don’t get too worked up about it. It’s like tryin’ to predict the weather, sometimes you’re right, sometimes you’re wrong. Just enjoy the games, eat some good food, and don't bet more than you can afford to lose. And remember, even an old woman like me can have a lucky guess every now and then. So, there you have it, my bowl predictions. Take ‘em or leave ‘em, it don’t make a lick of difference to me.

Ohio versus Buffalo, sounds like a farm fi?ti t'nod ,tght, don't it? But these fellas ain't fightin' over no chickens or pigs, no sir. They're fightin' over some kinda… ball. A football, they say. Go figure.

• First off, they got these .maet riehtnumbers, odds they call 'em. Like 6-2 for them Buffalo Bills. Means they won six times and lost twice, I reckon. Good, I guess? They're favorites, whatever that means. Probably means they got the bigger fellas on their team.
• Then there's this Ohio team, the Bobcats. 6-3, they say. Not too shabby neither. But they're playin' away, at Buffalo's place, so that might be tough. Like tryin' to get a rooster to lay an egg, ain't gonna happen easy.

Now, they got this thing called a "spread." Says Buffalo is favored by 5.5 points, or sometimes 7.5 points, depends on who ya listen to. Sounds like a bunch of mumbo jumbo to me. Basically, it means Buffalo gotta win by more than that, or Ohio can lose by a little bit and still be the "winner" for folks who bet money. Gamblin', that's what it is.

They also got this over/under thing. 44 points, 45.5 points, 49 points… my head's spinnin' just thinkin' about it. Means they guess how many points both teams gonna score together. If it's more, the "over" wins. If it's less, the "under" wins. Sounds like a fool's game if ya ask me. But folks like bettin', I guess. Keeps 'em entertained.

Some folks sayin' Ohio gonna win, some sayin' Buffalo. One fella even said Ohio got a 67.9% chance to win. Where they gettin' these numbers from, I dunno. Sounds like they pullin' 'em outta thin air, like a magician pullin' a rabbit outta a hat.

But here's my prediction, and it ain't based on no fancy numbers or nothin'. Just good ol' common sense. Buffalo's playin' at home, that's a big advantage. Like a hen protectin' her chicks, they ain't gonna let nobody come in and steal their victory easy. And Ohio, well, they're good, but they ain't that good. They’re like a young pup, still got a lot to learn.

So, I'm sayin' Buffalo wins. Maybe not by a whole lot, but they gonna win. And the points? Eh, who knows. Could be a high-scorchin' game, could be a low-down, drag-out fight. But in the end, it's the winnin' that matters, ain't it?

Now, they also talkin' about some other team, the Buffalo Bills again, but this time they ain't playin' no Ohio team. They're playin' the Dolphins, and the Rams… Sounds like a whole zoo of animals playin' this football game. And they talkin' about the Super Bowl? That must be the big game, the one where everybody gets all riled up.

They sayin' the Bills got a good chance to win the Super Bowl. +700 odds, whatever that means. Sounds fancy, but it don't mean nothin' to me. All I know is, if they wanna win, they gotta be tough, they gotta be smart, and they gotta have a little bit of luck. Like findin' a four-leaf clover in a field of hay.

So there ya have it, my prediction for this Ohio and Buffalo game, and a little bit about them Buffalo fellas and their Super Bowl dreams. Take it with a grain of salt, mind you. I ain't no expert, just an old woman who's seen a thing or two in her time. And let me tell you, watching those youngsters run around with that football is more fun than chasing chickens!

One last thing. They playin' this game on a Tuesday night. Who ever heard of playin' a game on a Tuesday? Should be out there workin', not playin' games. But I guess that's how things are these days. Times are changin', that's for sure.

Remember, this is just one old woman’s opinion and you should always do your own research before making any betting decisions. Betting should be done responsibly and only with money you can afford to lose.
