Ode to John & Lance of 1560 The Game

Morning radio in Houston is no longer lame
Thanks to the fine folks at 1560 The Game
Once John & Lance hit the airwaves at 7
There’s bound to be laughs in their sports loving Heaven
Nunee and all the gang offer knowledge and humor
Bringing listeners’ joy and the occasional rumor
Rising above the rest is no easy feat
But, hands down, The Game has all the others beat.
 
They offer variety where others have none
From the very moment their show is begun
Starting at the top, ‘til the last story’s aired
Their wit and wise banter cannot be compared
The Astros and Texans; Rockets and Dynamo –
They share all the input others want to know
Expressing their views in a way that sparks fun
No doubts; without question, you are #1.
 
Your coverage of sports on the National scene
Beats the heck out of words from Chef Paula Deen
MLB, NFL, NBA – you know all
You’re always prepared when we, listeners, call
Here’s to Lance & John and your whole morning crew
It is without question, I give thanks to you
And to a fine station, deserving acclaim
Here’s a toast..... Cheers..... 1560 The Game!
