And it’s usually played

Football Fan
Football fever is everywhere,
favorite team colors we all wear.
Season tickets are hard to find,
No, no, I can't let go of mine.
Half time is fun, just watching the band,
I love it all, I'm a football fan.

A world you haven’t seen before.

A basketball player with a football.
Unusual,

A fish should live IN and ONLY in the sea!

Eleven Geese On The Pond
I see a football team,

eleven geese on the pond,
this fair morning.
Red winged blackbirds get
your team together,
come as you are with
those colorful uniforms.

What fills the Air
What fills the air?
The song of birds?
The song of nature?
At a football game is it the sound of cheers?
the people taling aloud?
The marching band?
I feel that this in my ears is all wrong...
What i hear is the song of my heart wanting you <3

Thanks to BYU & the 70's
There’s Steve Young. . . Oh, and Namath could score
Both in football as well as “Amor.”
Well, that’s just about all
I know about football.
Yup. . . . I can’t think of anything more.

Still Around
I had cancer a while back
and at last year's Thanksgiving I threw a football and I
could barely send it a couple of feet
After a tasty Thanksgiving feast
this year I picked up a mini football
and played catch for about 45 minutes
And man, did that feel good!

Football My Fav
There once was a sports game called football.
Where the players knew how to trip and fall.
They were clumsy it's true.
You see they wore Panther's blue.
And the coach never knew what to call.

FOOTBALL
I love playing and watching football
The best part is goal scoring which
can be through set pieces or
lose ball to a player,
foul inside the box
brings penalty
which can lead
to a
goal!.

WAR OF WORDS
Wrestling with his conscience
Abstaining from verbal exchange
Regretting his words
Offended by obscenities
Forgetting his ticket
What is happening now?
Obnoxious little men
Rallying in no mans land
Dire Consequences
Spasmodic verbal abuse.

Football Sunday
Competative teams take the field.
Tha inspiration the hunger the glory they feel.
For the home team the visitors will not yeild.
The dreams they're living out are all real.
The excitement the game brings when your team wins.
Makes another game worth watching for a chance to feel it again.
