Limerick Friday #436: Biff Doeren Dashes Hopes Again, Plus “Man In The High Castle” Provides A Welcome Surprise


Football expectations did rightly soar
Stop me if you’ve heard this before
For a half, State lived up to the rap
At halftime, Doeren took a nap
A Pack implosion was unsurprisingly in store

Ineptitude in the rear view
Abandoning the uncreative milieu
On to a real place
With real roles and pace
Putting on a Red Hat is my cue

The best we can’t always keep
For a show that made a comedy leap
Seven seasons will have to suffice
Of satire and irony cold as ice
One more season for the impeccable “Veep”

A fantasy draft from an odd spot
Just OK with what I got
Dudes nabbed just before my pick
Coaching will have to do the trick
In Season 20, this is my lot

The acting is surprisingly first rate
Depicting a world run by hate
“Man in the High Castle” is searing
The plotlines complex but endearing
Maybe, just maybe, it’s even kind of great

Last time
