Limerick Friday LXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXVIII: Dolphin Beatings Will Continue Until Morale Improves, Plus Melancholidays

 Ineptitude beyond explanation or reason

Another year, another lost season

A franchise which was once so proud

Now just sucks out loud

And no end in sight to be teasin’

A letdown season for Doeren

Pack fans & recruits are snorin’

A home loss to UNC

A disappointment in Year 3

Improvement a concept foreign

Gronk took a shot on the knee

Ingram and Blount made three

Amari Cooper in witness protection

Robbie Gould got a yips infection

The Scooters all abandoned me

Not sure where to put the blame

After a disastrous fantasy playoff game

The injuries I was fearing

Nuke Hopkins disappearing

A great team and season up in flames

 

When the lights are all aglow

And thoughts turn to nog and snow

When the ornaments are all hung

And the carols beautifully song

I’ll forever think of Mo

Last time …

Limerick Friday LXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXVII: “The Leftovers” Has Restored Some Hope In TV, Plus Cautious Optimism For The Scooters

It came back from the dead

Better than ever, I said

“The Leftovers” got a second chance

To treat the mortality expanse

Beautiful TV, it’s fed

After some Dan Campbell buzz

Blown out like they always does

The soundtrack of Sunday dreads

Has to be the Talking Heads

Because it’s all the “Same As It Ever Was”

As religious thinking is flawed

Terrorism strikes abroad

If the world can agree on this

And get down to business

Finally we all can applaud

One of the best gunners ever

But passed the ball almost never

He’s basketball’s Tiger Woods

A douche with the talent goods

But Kobe’s more image-conscious and clever

The Scooters gave ‘em hell

The highest scorers, can’t you tell?

Finished at 9-3

A playoff bye for me

Now can Gronk get at least partially well?

Last time …
