Good News: Basketball Season May Be Cancelled

Good News—Basketball Season May Be Cancelled By Elton Camp Of outrageously overpaid, whiny jocks I don’t care For fifty years I haven’t watched a game anywhere When in college, some of our team’s players I knew Mention a present basketball star & I respond, “Who?” I don’t know the details of what the big fuss is about But that it’s about big time money I’ve got no doubt Professional sports is filled with extravagant greed Really, how much can players and owners need? With millions working hard for just minimum wage Obscene millions spent on sports puts me into a rage So let them cut their season short of not do it at all I don’t care if I never see another game of basketball In fact, here’s what I think it’d be best if they will do Get in a fight and close down football & baseball too My best guess is that this won’t ever take place But I’m keeping my fingers crossed just in case
