Monday Afternoon Chicago Bears Haiku

For some strange reason, I had a request at the end of last week to answer a question in the form of a haiku. Then, this began to interest me, so I've written some haiku about the game yesterday. I'll give you a little sampling of it now, and you can check out the rest after the jump

Warm day with the sun
Fans in blue and orange garb
Football has come back

Star-divide

Field re-sod and new
Detroit is scared and shy
Fifty-four destroys

Need to punt the ball
Mannelly snaps to Maynard
Coffin Corner Kicks

Lions back to pass
Backus becomes a turnstile
Pep ends Stafford game

Deep in Lions den
Briggs runs fast through the linemen 
Fumble at the one

Ball is on the turf
Tommie grabs and stumbles over
Next time just fall down

First play for Olsen
Catches then fumbles the ball
Hands made of charmin

Bears Territory
Screen to Forte out of play?
Inconclusive View

Last down and goal line
Wall of Lions proud and tall
Kick the effing ball

End of game prevent
The Megatron makes the catch
No, wait, just kidding

Dallas game next week
Their O-line made of swiss cheese
Kev predicts five sacks

What do you think? What's some ancient japanese poetry among fans?

I have to admit

So soft…lol.

"Kick the effing ball."

Haha, well done and so true. How you DON’T take the lead that’s offered to you is beyond me.

by Steven Schweickert on Sep 13, 2010 11:49 AM CDT reply actions  

Exactely!

What kind of Moronic Psycho-Babbly was that regurgitating out of Lovie’s mouth about the defense protecting a 5 point lead vs a 2 point lead because blah, blah, blah,
 …. HEY!
Lovie!
Ya need to first friggin TAKE the Lead, before ya worry your knucklehead about PROTECTING the Lead!
… and here’s the killer that came out of his “pie-hole” …. “I’d make that call every time”
Is this the “Epitome of Stupidity!!!!”
Is this man is truly beyond redemption???

Exactly.

Step one to protecting a lead…

Taking said lead.

Lovie tried to go for style points and it almost cost the team.

offense stumbling
but the D was vintage Bears

Outstanding.

This is by far the Greatest collection of Chicago Bears related Haiku’s dedicated to week one of an NFL season in the history of the world.

In the 8th grade Mike Ditka won his school's Science Fair with a model of a working volcano. There were 17 other working volcano's made that day, but only one named Mount Ditka.

The Number Four looks Bad!

The O gave up Four sacks.
The O had Four Turn overs
The O went Zero for Four in red Zone TD’s … (or O%)
The O had close to Four Hundred yards, … but scored only in the teens :(
We can’t count on our D knocking out the starting QB every week.
It was a nail-biter, to the last play, of the fourth quarter, to the worst team we will play :(
We’ll find our with The Boys how this season might go, … if not, … for sure with the Pack.
Go Bears!

Why? You feel neglected?

The natures of the contracts or the clients I may or may not represent is of no concern unless, said individual deems the hype man reveal his true intentions.

But doesn't the quality of your hype for David Taylor

decrease with each additional client you take on? Or are you just so full of hype that we should call you Lovievsworld? ;-)

The key to a great hype man is

versitility. And if you ever call me Lovievsworld I shall…. Well this will happen to you.

Thanks Kev

I thought the one haiku I requested would be enough. This is fantastic!

by ClawsClawsClaws on Sep 13, 2010 1:00 PM CDT reply actions  

Yeah, no problem.

I do what I can. Perhaps I should make you my groupie hype man like Ditkavs World.

If I did what I love for a living, what would I do in my free time?

I didn't know you were in the market Kev

and it’s all one word….. Ditkavsworld. If you like we can discuss the possibility of me being added to the WCG staff as personal hype man that way the rest of the writers/editors don’t feel like they are being neglected.

No thanks.

I am my own groupie hype man.

And I know it’s not Ditkav’s World, but my brain refuses to separate them properly.

Lol Do you realize how long it took me

to realize that was a “vs” in the middle? Well, it was much longer than I like to admit.

It's less racist

and more classist.

And the actual spacing is supposed to be “K e vH”

ode to lovie

lovie stands pensive
expression akin to sloth’s
while game slips away

Nicely done Kev

A+ for effort.

If you can't laugh at yourself you must not be very funny.
