I Love Football

Forward pass changed the game
Offense was never the same
Overtime rules continue to change
Tackling though can limit the range
Blitzes can really shut it down
Audibles can turn it around
Linebackers can do it all
Linemen are the heart and wall

Yep, can’t get this in acrostic—that ‘Hail Mary’ back-arching, last-minute, desperate winning touchdown—lest history repeats itself to the losing team—buy a new TV. Didn’t get a new one when the Raiders won the Super Bowl 77 against the Vikings!
