Limerick Friday #584: "Barry" Barrels Toward A Frantic Finale -- Day 1,161

 
Things are getting hairy
And more than a little scary
Humor dissipating
As tension's escalating
In this stellar wind-down to "Barry"

The scandal was gagged
But a transcript flagged
UNC courses rejected
Now Caleb Love is dejected
And the Cheater label is re-tagged

He was sick
But they needed his stick
So he homered thrice
And threw up twice
The Polar Bear's legend is thick

Michigan was paying attention
And told UNC with condescension
"This is a juco class
"How did you even pass?"
But locally, not a mention

Hanging by a thread
Postseason hopes nearly dead
This is baseball at State
Our yearly fandom fate
Optimism mixed with existential dread
