Limerick Friday LXXXXXXXXXVI: R.I.P. Teddy, Plus Infuriating Musings


They called him the lion of the Senate
Pushed civil rights up to his dying minute
The key to life is to get up, after all,
Just one more time than you fall
Ted Kennedy knew this, and how to live it

So what is the real media?, they ask
As they take college fan sites to task
Once lived in Mom’s basement, by the water heater
Dreamed of star rankings while bagging at the Teeter
Now in Internet mediocrity they bask

Comes in at the crack of 10, leaves at 4
She’s a trendy Kaiser Soze to the core
Just like that—poof, and she’s gone
With fake boobs and a tan sprayed on
The Teflon Diva is just another word for (*rhymes with poor*)

It looks like PETA has some gall
Oakland’s still the joke of football
Another free pass for John Calipari
And Derrick Rose now drives a Ferrari
Leaving Memphis to take the big fall

It’s high time for a fantasy football draft
Looking for sleepers both fore and aft
Injuries kill you ever year, it does seem
So you can now get insurance for your team
Just in case Blind Midget Patrol needs a life raft

Last time
