NFL Limericks, Part III
It’s been a few days, but here’s the third installment. In case you missed them and are too lazy to scroll down a couple entries, here are parts one and two.
Houston Texans
The Texans: expansion no more
And great expectations galore
But before this new team
Can fulfill its fans dreams
They need to find out how to score
Indianapolis Colts
Indiana, you whine and you whine
So much the league should levy fines
Though you have some great stats
You just can’t beat the Pats
Or come back when you’re falling behind
Minnesota Vikings
“Culpepper got smarter this summer”
That headline is always a bummer
‘Cause the past couple years
Have ended in tears
That could only be cured by a hummer
New Orleans Saints
The Saints have some talented players
And Joe Horn has plenty of flair
But bad execution
Will halt the solution
To N’Awlins fans’ unanswered prayers.
New York Giants
The G-Men last year went and quit
After playing all season like shit
Will Eli or Kurt
Give the playoffs a flirt
Or reach December in a snit?
New York Jets
Chadwick Pennington and C-Mart
Are already off to great starts
Of course these two guys
Could get cut down to size
If their knees once again fall apart
Oakland Raiders
“The Black Hole” is Oakland fans’ lingo
Though the players were born before Ringo
How can you win a game
When your roster’s so lame
That their post-game excitement is bingo?
Washington Redskins
The Skins name may be controversial
(They keep it because it’s commercial)
Can Joe Gibbs reclaim
His great coaching name
When he hasn’t been active since Herschel?
