Limerick Friday #404: Frightened Rabbit Lays Siege To Saxapahaw, Plus Baseball Used Well-Thrown Punch To Get Mildly Exciting

From Scotland to Saxapahaw

One of the best concerts I ever saw

A set list to make you shiver

Tore up all of Haw River

Frightened Rabbit left me in awe

Under pretty high stakes

Some key recruiting takes

All of a sudden the Pack

Looks a little stacked

The difference a month makes

A strong Wyoming lass

The epitome of class

Left a legacy of grace

And plenty of Vogies in place

As a beloved Grandma did pass

Beat every foe on his plate

Took home the Players late

Even without his best game

Jason Day cruised with no shame

Well-played as always, mate

 

On their shoulders they had a chip

Thanks to Bautista’s bat flip

So the next time they had a look

Made him eat a right hook

Odor made him eat meals with a sip

Last time …

Limerick Friday #403: Feeling A Windy City Draft, Plus HBO Saves TV Season Again

Gas mask bong for the win

Laremy Tunsil now a ‘Fin

But the rest of the picks

Full of head-scratching risks

Ask me in three years again

“Veep” and “Silicon Valley,” reborn

It’s kinda like Christmas morn

A coupla smash hits

To cure network TV’s shits

Best comedies on air, I’ve sworn

It’s the NFL Draft

The mediocre’s life raft

So when in Chitown

Wear this like a crown:

“Please ‘Fins, don’t be daft”

Beer you can’t nurse

Run through every curse

You mumble Ned Ginn

And say, “Never again”

And then you watch something worse

“Twin Peaks” meets “The Killing”

“Top of the Lake” is quite thrilling

The detective, “Mad Men’s” Peggy

The atmosphere quite heavy

Early on, both creepy and chilling

Last time …
