Limerick Friday LXXXI: Backing the Pack While Honoring RFK


A super regional for the upstart Wolfpack
Avent’s crew has been on the right track
It’ll be tough going to Georgia to play the Dawgs
To beat them gotta turn those bats into logs
The road to Omaha starts at noon for the Pack attack

Obama is the choice as the nominee
Can he unite the Democrats? We’ll see
People tired of Hillary’s politico game
Wanted change instead of more of the same
But we know that McCain’s tactics will be dirty

It’s NBA Finals time on ABC
No one cares, or is just me?
Lakers-Celtics used to be a freaking war
Now it’s just another reason to snore
Pretty bad when a guy goes from rapist to MVP

Ted Kennedy was awake when they cut on his brain
Gives me the willies to think of that potential pain
He would’ve been a prez if it wasn’t for that damn bridge
Chappaquiddick might ruin a career, just a smidge
Should’ve had a brain transplant back then to explain

Forty years since Robert Kennedy was taken away
Many who were there say that hope died that day
He was the best of what his brothers did so well
Without the worst parts of them, before he fell
A hero of mine before my time, I’m not ashamed to say

Last time
