It’s the game of the week With chaw in my cheek I tell Poet Devine “gooooo Yanks!” And every late inning When our boys are not winning There’s a hero for whom to give thanks First it was Jeter Nothing was sweeter Watching his tater Climb o’er the wall Then there was Broscious Being precocious It was like Kirk Gibson Smacking the ball Now its game seven Winner takes heaven And loser gets to cry On the news at eleven The match up is fierce Roger Clemens Kurt Shilling How can a game Be even more thrilling I’ll give you the poetry play by play It’s zero to zero and it will be all day Now close your ears If you’re easily shaken And turn off the comp If this isn’t well taken I stand at the plate and extend a forearm Smile at the flashes with a mystical charm And tell the whole world that this one is out The Yankees will win there isn’t a doubt! And you know what is great if the Yankees don’t win I can be happy for Sharon long as she don’t rub it in! (Hint Hint) |

Poor Walt, I'm preparing a special rub just for you D'Backs are on fire we've got one hit less than two! |

We got tired of the game being boring and so we decided to let the Yankees have a go but it'll stop right here Curt won't let them score we're headed for glory nothing less, nothing more |

the last they'll strike out right on the letters will be a D'Back cuz the Yankees are better. Our bullpen has pitchers that are pretty darn good Better than what happens When Kim's in the hood! [This message has been edited by wayoutwalt (edited 11-04-2001).] |

PDV I gracefully bow I'm glad that you have a winning team now The Yankees are cool But ya'll really played swell as to next year well who can now tell The lights are off now and the field is all quiet the chalk is asleep and in the streets a real riot i go to bed now with goosbumps on my skin if you root against friends you'll be glad their team wins! PDV, the Yanks are real sore But as to you and me pal Its the evenest of scores! NIGHT ALL! [This message has been edited by wayoutwalt (edited 11-04-2001).] |

The game, it is over The fat lady now sings. Johnson & Schilling Now have thier rings. I'm so sick to death, Of the media hype. They think you should win Just because you wear stripes. Heres to the rattlers The snakes with some bite. They stuck it to Yankees Fans on Sunday night. I feel bad for the Yankees They seem like nice guys. But I'm fed up to here, With thier fans who crack wise. Humilty comes with a Bittersweet taste. So to all of you Yankee fans, I say "IN YOUR FACE!" No one ever listened themselves into trouble.

The Diamondbacks are a family team - if you noticed last night, they held the trophy awards ceremony IN the stadium and in the post game interviews on the field, most of the players were with their wives or holding their kids. They have been called a 'boy scout' team. Well, they have strong values and a work as a team - acknowledging that every man on the team helped win the series, not just the ones on the field last night. I am proud to be a Diamondbacks fan. (And last night, you should have seen the fans leaving the stadium, high-fiving the riot police who just stood there waiting for something to happen - and it didn't.) Sorry don't mean to go on and on.... |

It's hard to type today after gnawing my knuckles raw last night... and bouncing up and down with glee doesn't help. *G* Walt and PDV... this exchange was immensely entertaining... your "on the fly" poetry attests the great talent of both participants. *G* I've followed Curt Shilling for years... so if you heard an ear-piercing screech from the south last night, it was just my scream of YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! |
