I have found new reasons to hate professional basketball.


Poem Artwork

Frickin Frackin

Razzin Frazzin

Lakers won’t be

Utah Jazzin

 

Cheap shot fouls

Became the norm

When they couldn’t escape

The gathering storm

 

Poor old Phil

His threepeat dead

Players let the season

Go to their head

 

Blame it on injuries

Or age perhaps

I prefer to call it

Mental collapse

 

The money in their pockets

Just weighed them down

Couldn’t make the shots

To win the crown

 

There’s a brighter side

And I’ll tell you why

No Lakers to kick around

In the middle of July

Middle of July is right. Could never understand why basketball continues until the middle of summer. The only reason I could think of is that basketball fans have nothing better to do and it's all about money. So glad poetry is about money and we can say what we want just like you did here–amusing without having to pay anything.

Sorry guy, I'm a Celtics fan. T me there is nothing sweeter than the demise of the Lakers, whenever and howedver it happens. Unfortunately, I think my team will soon be going quietly into the night. For me the big problem is players like Kobe Bryant and LeBron James who are allowed to thuink they are bigger than thegame they play.

Patrick, I like this.... Spoken like a "REAL" fan. Still, it was quite a shocker, especially that last game.

GO HEAT!

I love basketball, the way it's played in college.
Too much ego dulls the game at the pro level. gene.

The Wholly Book of Genesis by Jay Dubya

The Wholly Book of Genesis is a humorous satire on the first book of the Old Testament where the Story of Creation, the building of Noah's Ark, Sodom and Gomorrah and the families of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob are thoroughly spoofed and broadsided.
