NFL SUNDAY
AND CFL SATURDAY
AND NCAA
“Put the team first ...
and the ball seems to find you”
(Torry Holt: September, 2025)
like thunder crowd roars
brown pigskin flying in wind
thursday night football
You never meant anything to me anyway.
If I twist my wrist and thrust it down,
I flick my hips and slip away.
If I smash my forearm into your grill,
this is how I get my thrill.
You never meant anything to me anyway.
I am just a player, playing for fun.
But when I begin to play for money,
I flick my hips and slip away.
Sometimes, brutality and reality collide.
Brothers and players stand side by side.
You never meant anything to me anyway.
Well-off fans and super-rich owners,
to the players, are nothing but donors.
I flick my hips and slip away.
The players always give their all,
but always are expendable.
You never meant anything to me anyway.
I flick my hips and slip away.
Waterboarding
The NFL
Will help Trump sleep
Extremely well
The NRA
Will make amends
When Dick Cheney
Can shoot more friends
The GOP
Has set some goals
For Kim Jong-Un
To fix the Polls
The USA
May be a mess
But that would be
Trump's second guess.
He didn't get it,
our toddler president, locked
arms were in protest.
Don't know 'bout you, but I'm in a stew
that Rice ain't nice and the NFL smells.
Seems a shame, just 2 games
suspension for sending fiancé to unconscious dimension
but 5 games in the pink for some "illegal" ink
and a season on the rope for smokin a little dope.
Too bad, violence gainst women so sad
but these are men in a violent pen
NFL pretzel logical?
Whatever the reason, dirty laundry in preseason
washed clean yawl, if Ray take us to the Super Bawl.
Tennis anyone?

Finished before start
Colts fans leap from Bandwagon
Peyton Manning's hurt
The first game was played in California;
LA Coliseum the arena.
Here, you may have a doubt.
The game was not sold out.
This is just some more useless trivia.
The Packers were led by Vince Lombardi.
Hank Stram brought his Chiefs from Kansas City.
In this football showdown
from this West Coast town,
the team from Green Bay won the first trophy.
