What I said, below this
And, I say it all again
Do anything, you have to
Just, as long as, you win!!

I posted this and then pulled it, but after hearing today basketball game tickets will be in the $1000s here in Orlando, thought maybe those millions spent on seats (and those freebies for politicans)to watch millionaires bounce a ball around might do more good and $ might be better spent to feed the hungry!!!!!!!!!!!
And thought the super(?) bowl half time show was terrible!!You'd think, madonna had learned to lip-sync by now.Screwmia too.
Sorry if you don't like.Don't read on then.Sports is just another crooked, dirty business.


Foolsball (Another Stupor Bowl)
Ticker Tape Parades

We throw down tons of confetti
On millionaires, who toss a ball
Yet, we don’t have Parades for those
Who, gave Some and/or Gave All.

A Nation that, just can’t wait
For, who wins, that coin toss
To bet which team, wins or loses
No thought for, ultimate loss.

We go crazy over stupid ads
For millions, as we are had
At half-time, fingered by non-talent
Who can’t even lip-sync, kinda sad‼

Watched by the biggest audience
That this World, has ever seen
Pride for Giants or Patriots
Neither, worthy of the title, or between!

The Ones who deserve those names
And, all that reverent, adulation
Are those, who fight and die for us
Who really, Stand Up for our Nation!

A reality check, is in order
To, review our priorities
It’s not some moneyed, stupid, sport (?)
That, should bring us, to our knees.
