The Tribe’s gonna take the ALCS…

Sorry Randy Andy but soccer, for me, gives way to end of the season baseball...


Poem Artwork


My favorite team is up to win,

Though if they don’t, won’t be a sin,

I only betted this year a paltry fin,

With every home run I do give a grin…

 

I may live closer to the Phillies,

Don’t want to appear as silly,

But I’ve learned to like the Indians,

From all the visits to Ohio I have made,

Though I couldn’t live there, as it seems to me quite chilly…

 

Hey if the Red Sox do luck out and prevail,

I will stay with my tribe, I will never bail,

Sorry Randy Andy, but baseball, for me,

Is but one step below my love for the sea…

I used to love the Indians when I was a boy. Time will surely tell what will happen in the world of sports. May the best team win, and do so honorably. Blessings dude ... Hey Rufus ... WOOF! And don't let daddy human bet anymore than a fin!

For me, the Forty-niners can whipe those Andy sissies anytime!
As for soccer...don't like too much that "God's hand" they love so much.

Since my Cardinals don't repeat this year, I'm rootin' for the tribe and the Rockies. Being an NL fan, I'll pull for the Mile High guys.

I love your poem here.
