TDOS Limerick Thread

[venom_7]

bored so i'll start off with a few

Geoff, please trade Brad Miller
in the playoffs, he was the only Kings killer
his jump shot is sweet
but he can't move his feet
and throw in Hart as cap filler!

When it comes to naming the best
one has to throw in Artest
our defense wasn't lonely
when Artest owned Ginobli
and the trade - not hard to digest

Jason Hart isn't too good
not quite sure what he has under the hood
but while he isn't elite
his feet are quite fleet
maybe he is just misunderstood

Kevin Martin gives us hope for tommorow
while Potato leaves us with sorrow
Garcia was sweet
his defense concrete
the rest of the bench the Hawks can borrow

 

[VF21]

Great idea. I'm moving it to the Lounge, however, since it's more suited to that forum.

I'm going to request up front that people NOT post any kind of limerick that will get this thread closed in short order.

thanks...

 

[SacKings384]

These are REALLY good! Here's one...

The Kings energy was never too good
Without Artest in our neighborhood
He asked for some hustle
Now we've brung in some Mussel
Let's just hope no elbows draw blood!

 

[venom_7]

ha blood doesn't rhyme with hood

Bibby is mister ice
when it comes to the end, he's not nice
when the clock's winding down
and Bibby's in town
when that shot flies, don't look twice
kings win

"brang" ?????

 

[venom_7]

ha thats funny. brang. Colbert word.

 

[GoGoGadget]

"brang" ?????

I think it's a less common form of the word "bringed."

 

[hoopsfan]

That made me laugh! The sad thing it..people actually use it.

 

[VF21]

G3 - Is that "bringed" or "bring-ded"?

 

[kingkung]

There once was a boy named Mike Bibby
Whose defense was suspect as Libby
Then along came Muss
Who started a fuss
And...
ummmm...
...made Mike play really good defense.

 

[kingkung]

There once was a guy named Artest
Who never gave less than his best
Till one ugly scene
Got him kicked off his team



...and made him a champion out West.

So said a girl known as Gadget
With a reputation of naughtiness as habit
"I must stay PG,
this isn't for me,
I won't write a limerick, dag nabbit!"

 

[SacKings384]

brung brang sang all the same thing...

The girl with the name of G3,
Evoked a strong image in me.
By her use of "dag nabbit"
I thought of a rabbit
Who couldn't get out of a tree.

That's a strange image, I find
To have had "dag nabbit" bring to mind
I see: missing the trifecta
Or a grizzled prospector
Upon losing the nugget he mined

When up in the forest you dwell
It is sometimes not possible to tell
What your mind will denote
From a "dag nabbit" quote
As you mumble about the farmer in the dell.

 

[hoopsfan]

You guys are too good. I will not even attempt.

That's why us city folk gloat
Whilst keeping our noses afloat
No rabbits in trees
Sophistication, please
When determining what phrases connote

That's nothin'.

You ought to see my dirty haiku.

Flatlanders have nary a clue,
Wildlife to them's in a zoo.
We have lions and bears,
Raccoons and hares.
And even a Sasquatch or two.

And even a Sasquatch or two.

The nature's enough to entice
It's a theory, a concept, that's nice
But they're menacing creatures
With sharp, pointy features
No thank you. The zoo will suffice.

 

[hoopsfan]

This is like watching a tennis match...your serve VF.

 

[hoopsfan]

That's nothin'.

You ought to see my dirty haiku.

Ok....












I'm waiting....

 

[Prophetess]

dang, you guys are all really good.

 

[Prophetess]

i have three kids who sometimes give me grief
i turn to the Kings for relief
relief I did not find
or even piece of mind
when the Artest couldn't by himself get it done
and the Kings went out in Round one.

 

[Prophetess]

My two favorite players were Pollard and Barry,
one was quite bald and the other quite hairy,
they were traded away
each on a different day
for the good of both teams
so it wasn't quite as bad as it seems.

 

[Prophetess]

some think that Kevin Martin is hot
they care less if we believe them or not
and I want the truth to be told
that absolutely noone looks good in gold

 

[venom_7]

With VF I have to side
In the forest I also reside
In the city there's litter
as opposed to wood critters
and pride outside the divide

Yay Foresthill.... yechh

 

[venom_7]

"Dag Nabbit" is the sort of word
whose alternatives are much less preferred
but when used in context
it leaves us suspects
as to whether the weather's absurd

yay 200th post.

When you walk through the forest up here
The menacing creatures are clear
They don't wear sheep's clothing
And although you feel loathing
For us it's respect more than fear.
