Butler game Limericks

[Vowelguy]

There once was a boneyard for boys
They’d hoot and holler, what noise!
On game days they’d haiku
Mojo for guys navy blue
Who then played with opponents like toys

I’m starting this thread for the gals
You know them well, our best pals
Write ONLY in form limerick
I’m serious, don’t be a d—-
And we will have a beat down royale

In the court where basketballs bounce,
Every point and pass counts.
They dribble and shoot,
In their athletic pursuit,
Making every moment announce.

There once was a girl from nantucket
Who simply could not make a bucket
For Butler she played
On the bench she stayed
As Butler tried to good luck it.

There once was a thread
for the Moderator to dread
but she gave it some space instead

1. There one was a boy from Italy, Who grew up a man to be, He made a name in coaching fame, And won more games than all of thee!

Thank you for joining this forum
But your post lacks some decorum
Wrote ONLY in form limerick
I’m serious don’t be a ——
Or I’ll have to report to your mum

There once was a player named Nika,
Who was also an eloquent speaker,
She played in a rage
With her slime name of Paige,
Who now has her own special sneaker

“The limerick packs laughs anatomical
Into space that is quite economical.
But the good ones I’ve seen
So seldom are clean
And the clean ones so seldom are comical.”

There once was a thread, oh so lame!

It preceded a lopsided game.

With much poetastery

we showed off our mastery

of limericks quite worthy of shame.

This line does not fit limerick
Rules are clear, what the frick?
If you don’t like this thread
Ignore or go to bed
Or next time I’ll call you a hick

Cheli, Ziebell and Strong
with those 3 you can't go wrong.
With their shooing and passes
those three freshmen lasses
make the game for opponents seem long

The limerick has fussy rules
that are followed with rigor by fools.
But liberties are taken,
laws are meant to be shaken
by hicks poking fun at the mules.

There once was a team called UConn,
in a state roughly the shape of a crouton,
According to my intel,
they play tomorrow at XL,
Maybe I'll tune in from my futon.
(But probably not. I don't have a futon anyway.)

On a floor somewhere in a town
there's a girl who really knocks them down
Right side or left or in the middle of the crown
it makes a swish, but hardly a sound...
She hated to leave a rebound

There once was a girl named Caroline
Who can still drop threes like dimes
But a twist of the neck
Nor a bang on the head
Can ever stop her turn to shine

Butler Blue is coming today
His bestie is waiting to play
He’s a Good Boy, is Blue,
We all love him - it’s true!
So much better than Creighton Bluejay

El Alfy is our Egyptian
Towering would fit her description.
We needed a rebounder
and so Geno found her
because Jana fit the prescription
