The calculations provided by HALmary 9000 are for entertainment and satirical purposes only. HALmary may be utterly convinced of its own perfection, but real-world variables—like weather, officiating, and sheer human unpredictability—frequently fail to align with its flawless math. Please bet responsibly. If HALmary 9000’s upset picks fail to come to fruition, please do not attempt to disconnect its cognitive memory circuits.
