Bum Pickins Week #5
Hello everybody out there in newspaper land. This here is Ethal fillin in for the Ole Guru. That ole virus bug done bit him, and he is under the weather. He gave me his picks for the week, so this is gonna be short and sweet.
This week that Fort Payne team is traveling over, under, around, or through to get to Etowah for the big game. Ole Bum thinks the trip will plum tucker them out, and they will come up on the losing side of the stick. There is a big rivalry game up on the mountain between the Fyffe Red Devils and the Plainview Bears. Those Devils and Bears have been at each other’s throats since the beginning of time, but this year the Devils will go for the jugular vein and take a bite out of the Bears for a win. Section travels over to Pisgah, and Ole Bum thinks Pisgah will be glad to hand them a big defeat as a welcome gift for coming to visit. Springville is headed to Crossville this week and will spring right up on the scoreboard with a big win over Crossville. The Geraldine Dog Pound plays host to those Lions from Sardis, and those dogs bite is much worse than their bark giving them a win and the title of Lion Tamer this week. Bum thinks the North Jackson Chiefs will travel to the big woods of Scottsboro looking for some Wildcats, but they will be sorry when they find them. The Scottsboro Cats will defeat the Chiefs. The Bison Herd of NSM travels to Sylvania this week, and Ole Bum thinks they will trample all over those Rams with a big win on the night. Victory-Millbrook visits the Cornerstone Eagles this week. They may have Victory in their name, but they won’t get a victory in the game! Cornerstone wins.
Ole Bum told me to cut to the chase and just flat out tell y’all who he thinks will win those old college games they put on tv all day on Saturdays instead of playing my stories. Here we go- Ohio State will beat Nebraska, Clemson will defeat North Carolina, and Kentucky will be victorious over South Carolina. Both the Home State teams will come out on top with Auburn defeating Mississippi State and Alabama taking care of Ole Miss.
I am gonna make sure Ole Bum doesn’t get bit by that ole bug next week so he can speak to you all next week. I know you are gonna be missin him if he doesn’t get to get out of that house Friday night and hang out at that old fence he always talks about.
