Limerick Friday #595: RIP To A Windy-City Legend -- Day 1,301


Beware his burning hair
If you dared enter his lair
The O.G. Monster of the Midway
Dick Butkus did not play
Farewell to the quintessential Bear

Some players not worth a fuck
Plus a few injuries and bad luck
A complicated two-year stay
Trying to give the Mets their day
I'm gonna miss no-nonsense Buck

It's been 20 years since
"Frasier" explored the life of shrinks
The thought is kinda soothing
And even surprisingly moving
When I hear all the reboot hints

His contract made him cry
So he hung his team out to dry
Was a fan fave
But can his reputation by saved?
"Why?" we ask JT with a sigh

Punt, fumble, a sack decleat
Rinse, interception, and repeat
With the Pack offense a nope
Has Wolfpack Nation found hope
Is M.J. Morris the answer amidst this heat?
