Leaving Las Vegas

Haiku = worst poetry format ever…should be a new forum topic ;)

Bumbling Doc Rivers
Another pathetic loss
Inevitable

Or how about a line from the movie (spoken by Nicholas Cage to Elizabeth Shue) that is appropriate for Celtics fans: “Don’t ever tell me to stop drinking.”

Isn’t haiku formet 5,7,5, when it comes to the amount of syllables???

Ya, nevermind im an idiot, HAIKU ON lol

Fire Danny Ainge. Now.
Please Wyc. Fire Danny Ainge. Now.
And Doc Rivers Too.

Magic Underwear
Wearing Mormon GM must
leave Boston post-haste

Celts unwatchable
Auerbach cries out from his grave
“Ainge Responsible!!”

Rondo plays twenty.
Doc forgets to call timeout.
Gerald sits on bench.

How could the Celtics
Hire that idiot Rivers
Shame on you Danny

Oh joy unconfined!
Doc’s slow train to Orlando
will be leaving soon
 

This isn’t challenging… how about iambic pentameter?

That Ainge must go is doubtless clear to see
With Doc, he killed the celtics fan in me

Yes, it’s difficult to capture this mess in only 17 syllables. Maybe someone will try his (or her) hand at a sonnet.

Certainly Shakespeare knew what it was like to be a Celtics fan:

In faith I do not love thee with mine eyes,
For they in thee a thousand errors note;
But ‘tis my heart that loves what they despise,
Who, in despite of view, is pleased to dote.
Nor are mine ears with thy tongue’s tune delighted;
Nor tender feeling, to base touches prone,
Nor taste, nor smell, desire to be invited
To any sensual feast with thee alone:
But my five wits nor my five senses can
Dissuade one foolish heart from serving thee,
Who leaves unswayed the likeness of a man,
Thy proud heart’s slave and vassal wretch to be:
Only my plague thus far I count my gain,
That she that makes me sin awards me pain.

That’s pretty good Brick.

As the streak wore on.
A shame fell over the fans.
Wear bags on your heads.

On Causeway Street did Danny Ainge,
A blighted Celtics team o’ersee
Where Walt the injured forward ran
Through plays disguised as ping-pong plan.
Out with the Doc he’ll be.

Coleridge

If you want poetry, go to the Yahoo home page and watch the Pete Maravich video. If I could have made a pact with the devil to be any player in the world, it would have been him.

i hate wally a little more every time he gets hurt, god damn it wally

I love Wally a little more every time he gets hurt. Then I don’t have to watch him get beaten by his man on defense every bloody time.

wally is a cripple, a para palegic, a retard and to boot a crappy basketball player. all he ever had was a decent set shot andthat is not even a given. i would rather have christopher reeves after his accident than wally world. he is the worst…

I drank a couple of beers
Yet another loss… :’(

wow brickowski wrote a sonnet in iambic pentameter.
i dont know what’s sadder. that he did that or that i know that

oh, and even yahoo recognizes pistol pete as the youngest HOFer, even though the (incorrect) “answer” to this same question was reported as ed mccauley by our wonderful FSNE broadcasters two weeks ago.

i emailed them about this and you think they’d so much as reply acknowledging the error??? of COURSE NOT.

THIS FRANCHISE IS A GIANT DUMPSTER

What gave you diehards the right to be surprised by last night’s outcome? Has one win in 19 games justified your indignation that this struggling franchise has managed to lose YET ANOTHER GAME?

I only got to watch part of last night’s game but I saw several offensive moves by Jefferson that literally rocked me awake. This kid is on his way to stardom as a reincarnation of legendary McHale, especially with his “illusionist” moves around the basket.

While this team flounders the oft mentioned “silver lining” is the quiet maturation of some of our future stars. There may yet be hope for Delonte (who has struggled with decision-making) and with increased PT, that of Rondo and Green as well. While we hold our breath for the ping-pong ball drop, the consolation prize(s) may already be on the roster.

It is sadder still that you don’t recognize the sonnet as one of Shakespeare’s.
