When love of sport turns to hatred for the opposing team
that's seriously taking the 'we' against 'them' too far

Now I’ve never been terribly sporty
For exercise isn’t my forte
But I’ve finally found
A sport that is sound
It involves getting naked and naughty

No Favorite Sport

I do not have a favorite sport.
Folks near me cheering laughing, snort.
At times I sit in bleachers,
And watch the gaming creatures.
I much prefer a tasty torte.

Water Sport

She climbed on the table at tea
and said she was surfing the sea,
I did wonder why,
as tables are dry -
then noticed her puddles of pee...

Beers, cheers, and jeers, which team gaining

SPORT MATCH
Sometime life is just a sport match
You can win but you can't catch
Everything we pursue is everything we must dispatch
At least we can leave anything for a simple latch
