naco228 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 When you guys are doing your pickem's....are you picking who you THINK will win or who you WANT to win? For example, i WANT Alex Gregory to make it to the finals, but i THINK Kieffer will beat him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BABAMF Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 I do a little bit of both, unless there is no chance my guy has of beating that person then i go with who i think, but if he has a shot then i go with who i want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrestlingGURU189 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 This year is a lot more difficult than most becuase there are only a few weight classes that are not up for grabs...... It is a little bit of both who i want to win and who i think is gonna win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XCard Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Sometimes picking who you WANT can put your over the top when everyone else is picking who they THINK. <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< THIS IS THE WEEKEND THAT COUNTS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhomburg Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 I think its impossible to not put at least a little bias in one's picks. Sometimes, the person you want to win can be the person who you think will win. For example, Im pulling for Brooks at 119 and strongly believe he has the best shot at knocking off Wright if they meet. Thats a big IF though given the weight class.

fire77 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 my bias is on who i saw in close matches and that have done good. i just give them the nod more because i have seen them wrestle good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mhomburg Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 dude, im stuck on Lynde at 140...idk what to do with him Can he beat Sims? Then Stahl/Surma/Butts? My first question is can he beat Tonte? Tonte and Mcginley looked to be in the match of the day at NC and Tonte got caught in a scramble and was pinned thus ending the match abruptly. I seen on here somewhere they already wrestled and Tonte won, but doesn anyone know what the score of that match was? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seen on here somewhere they already wrestled and Tonte won, but doesn anyone know what the score of that match was? On saturday, Tonte was up 3-5 point, If memory serves, he got a take down and back points and during a scramble, he got stuck in a defensive pin. I thought the pin was called a bit quick. But it was called, and there is not much that can be done about it after the fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trinedad Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 how do I go against my own son at 119 You can leave that match blank, or just dont pick that side of the bracket. pick the top 3-4 and go from there. Or, put him where you want him to be, and just move on. Picking matches that your son is involved in is very difficult. Best of luck this weekend to both you and your son.
