Limerick Friday LXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXVXI: “Newsroom” Fades To Black, Plus Patience During The Holidays



Three seasons of “Newsroom”
They went by in a zoom
Through all the drama of right and wrong
It was about Charlie Skinner, all along
Sorkin tricked those who assume

After the Dolphins reach another low
Everyone but the owner seems to know
It’s time to press restart again
In pursuit of a playoff win
So sorry, but Joe has to go

Jax kissed a Mac truck grill
Ending the “Sons of Anarchy” thrill
A show with enormous holes
But it dragged you over the coals
Cartoonish but engrossing still

He’s the emo QB
Moodier than a child of 3
His whiny face smolders
In the City of Big Shoulders
Cutler ain’t cuttin’ it, ya see?

Traffic beyond reason
At work, no appeasin’
Yet the lights twinkle merry
The kids are excited, very
So grin and say, “‘Tis the season”

Last time

Limerick Friday LXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXVXI: The Commish With The Horseshoe Anal Implant, Plus Beth Shuffles Off The TWD Immortal Coil



Another playoff trip. oh boy

By using every owner ploy
But Shamrock used all his luck
Had me saying, “What the fuck?!”
Knocked out by goddam Colt McCoy?!

Playoff hopes barely alive
Thanks to a Geno Smith drive
Pushed around by the Jets
Escaped at the end, you bets
For consistency, we do strive

Down by five TDs
Still talking trash incessantly
Or maybe it was just Swahili
Expected better, silly me
Cheaters won’t be humbled, don’t you see

Lined up and punched ‘em in the face
Added to the cheaters disgrace
Hit ‘em until they quit
Then rubbed their face in the shit
The Pack took over the whole place
 
Impromptu lullabies
And anime eyes
With a shot to the head
Innocence lost on “Walking Dead”
For Beth, a fanbase cries
