Alright, let’s talk about this Celtics and Sixers game, you know, the basketball thing. Folks been jabberin’ about it, so I figured I’d chime in, even though I ain’t no expert or nothin’.
Celtics versus Sixers, who’s gonna win? That’s the big question, ain’t it? Well, from what I hear, these Celtics fellas are pretty good. Heard tell they got some fellas who can really throw that ball. Strong lads, they are, like the ones who used to haul hay back in the day.
- But these Sixers, they ain’t no pushovers, no sir. They got some fellas who can run and jump and shoot, just like them Celtics boys. It’s gonna be a real barn burner, I reckon. Like that time the Johnson’s barn caught fire, everybody was runnin’ around like chickens with their heads cut off.
- Folks are sayin’ the Celtics are gonna win by a few points, somethin’ like 110 to 107. Now, I don’t know much about these numbers, but that sounds mighty close to me. Seems like it could go either way, like when you’re plantin’ corn, sometimes it grows tall, sometimes it don’t.
They’re talkin’ about this “spread” thing too. Said somethin’ about the Celtics being minus two and a half points. Sounds like gibberish to me, but I guess it means they gotta win by more than that. If they only win by two, then the Sixers folks win somethin’, even though they lost the game. Don’t make a lick of sense to me, but that’s what they say. Like sellin’ eggs, you got large, you got medium, you got small, all different prices but still eggs.
And the points, they sayin’ it’ll be over 212 points total. That’s a whole lotta points, if you ask me. Back in my day, we didn’t have all these fancy points. We just had who won and who lost. Simple as that. But these city folks, they like to complicate things, I guess. Like that time they tried to put up a traffic light in town, nobody knew what to do.
Some other folks, they’re sayin’ the Sixers might just pull it off. Maybe 102 to 99. Now, that would be somethin’, wouldn’t it? Like a dark horse winnin’ the race at the county fair. Always a surprise, but sometimes them underdogs come out on top. Like that little runt piglet we had, always getting pushed around, but grew up to be the biggest hog of the bunch.
So, what’s my prediction? Well, I ain’t got no crystal ball, that’s for sure. But if I had to put my money on it, and I ain’t got much to spare, I’d say it’s gonna be a tight one. Real tight. Could go either way. But seein’ as how everyone’s talkin’ up them Celtics, I’m gonna go with them. But just barely. I’m sayin’ Celtics by a hair, somethin’ like 108 to 106. And I’m guessin’ there will be a whole heap of points scored.
But don’t you go bettin’ your farm on it, you hear? This is just an old woman’s guess. Them fellas runnin’ and jumpin’ and throwin’ that ball, they’re the ones who decide. And sometimes, they just do whatever they please, no matter what anyone says. Just like my chickens, sometimes they lay eggs, sometimes they don’t, no rhyme or reason to it.
But hey, it’s all just for fun anyway, ain’t it? Like watchin’ the clouds go by, sometimes they look like rabbits, sometimes they look like old boots. You never can tell what will happen for sure!
Game day will tell the story, and all this yappin’ will be for naught if the boys don’t play their hearts out. May the best team win, and may nobody get hurt. That’s all that really matters in the end, ain’t it? Just like when we used to have those pie-eating contests at the church picnic, it wasn’t just about who won but about everybody havin’ a good time and sharin’ a piece of pie.
