Limerick Friday LXXXXXXXXX: Boxing Loses A Thunderous Warrior, Plus More Bad News For State


He was a throwback to the days of very old
Took punch after punch but would never fold
Of his demise, I couldn't be any sorrier
Goodbye to the ultimate blood and guts warrior
Boxing will make sure Arturo Gatti's stories get told

Controversy at every level of the administration
Nate Irving and Lo Brown now on long vacation
When you're a Pack fan, there is no buffer
We all go to NC State -- and then suffer
It's been a rough summer for Wolfpack Nation

The New York Times remembers the Big Easy
A good story, but maybe a little cheesy
I appreciate the rosy outlook
And wish that was all that it took
But to fix New Orleans, we have to get a little greasy

Outspoken Gary Williams, god bless
Called out Calipari in the press
Booze has given him a red nose
And allows him to talk shit about foes
But about cheaters, the NCAA could care less

Everyone thought Tiger was a lock
But Tom Watson's playing solid as a rock
Beauty all around at Turnberry
Great weather made everybody merry
Hope the old guys keep turning back the clock

Last time
