Game Day Haiku UConn vs Providence

[Son of Robert]

Rivalry returns
let's get this season rockin
A good win today

 

[Vancat]

Need a diversion
I'm still tryna get over
Boeheim eating snots

 

[HuskylnSC]

It’s Time to avoid
The NCAA bubble
Step 1 is Beat Prov

 

[Waquoit]

I hate Providence
Just the name makes one want to
Eat their own boogers

 

[Hey Adrien!]

My plan for today:
record the game, cook dinner
then no commercials!

 

[ARIDE]

Tired of the gamemanship! Is Book in lineup or not!

 

[Get a Job]

Tired of the gamemanship! Is Book in lineup or not!

Come on, brotherman!
Thread is for haikus only!
Try this on for size:

"Tired of gamesmanship!
Is Bouk in lineup or not?!
Tell me now, Hurley!"

 

[Psolo12]

Bouknight is back guys
Time to hear Providence cries
Ed Cooley's demise

 

[wheelerdog]

The push begins now
A winnable game today
With or without Bouk

 

[QDOG5]

Let's turn up the heat
Friar, friar, shorts on fire
Extinguish P C

 

[mussels]

Been almost eight years
since Huskies last bit Friars
new start same result

 

[CL82]

Isn't a Fryer
some type of chicken? How odd.
Strange choice for mascot.

Let's fry up those birds
and have a delicious meal.
Victory tastes great.

Sorry, Ernie D
isn't coming out onto
the court anymore.

So lookout Fryers
UConn's back in the Big East.
All fear the Big Dog.

 

[Waquoit]

Bouknight is back guys
Time to hear Providence cries
Ed Cooley's demise

Rhyme is optional
For haiku, props for doing
So naturally

 

[OkaForPrez]

As the saying goes:
Don't judge a Bouknight by its
sleeve. Something like that.

 

[Get a Job]

Ain't no denyin'
Friars be cryin'
Cuz JB/AJ are flyin'

It's 5-7-5
5-5-8 doesn't cut it
Fix it for mojo

 

[mussels]

Time to avoid
The NCAA bubble
Step 1 Beat Prov

Let's turn up the heat
Friar, friar, shorts on fire
Extinguish P C

Ain't no denyin'
Friars be cryin'
Cuz JB/AJ are flyin'

Anyone buyin'?

Syllable alert
please count them you good people
to improve mojo

 

[JakeTheDog]

Friars get beatdown
And have to seek forgiveness
From their God Shammgod

 

[drayenob]

Providence you suck!
Who would name their kid David
With a last name Duke?

 

[hansonel-amin]

Bouknight enters game
Offense becomes more fluid
Scoring total up

 

[TerryBoyz]

“No I missed the game.
“ I had a conflict at 4”
A casual fan.

 

[QDOG5]

Where is my mistake
Contraction the sticking point?
Mojo is a must

 

[Get a Job]

Where is my mistake
Contraction the sticking point?
Mojo is a must

Second line is tough
Can be read as 5 or 8
7 is a stretch

 

[Big Cranky]

Don't let the snowfall
Get you down on life today
See you at 4 y'all!

 

[elmcityboy]

bouknight back, bouknight
back. there's all these b****es scream-
ing that bouknight back

 

[TerryBoyz]

Bouknight returning
Like the song by Timbuk 3
“I gotta wear shades”

 

[ZenConn]

Hope to see Bouknight
Bouk versus Duke would be great
When Bouk wins this one.

Normally write one
Because of this booger vid
I need to write more

So this booger vid
Is so upsetting and gross
Damn to you Boeheim!

 

[QDOG5]

Second line is tough
Can be read as 5 or 8
7 is a stretc

Let's turn up the heat
Friar, friar, shorts on fire
Extinguish P C

Merriam Webster
Friar is two syllables
Fire one certainly

 

[TerryBoyz]

I’m such a boomer
An old song to reference
Listen for yourself

 

[ClifSpliffy]

(not) sitting in the
stands of the sports arena.
wait! show to begin!

Red lights, green lights, straw-
berry wine, a good friend of
mine, follows the stars.

Venus, Mars right to-
nite. Venus and Mars are all
right tonight. rockshow.

 

[Hans Sprungfeld]

Time to avoid
The NCAA bubble
Step 1 Beat Prov

Line 1 & line 3
Need to be 5 syllables
Please change before game

Tired of the gamemanship! Is Book in lineup or not!

What the hell is this?
And why in the haiku thread?
5-7-5, man

"Tired of gamesmanship!
Is Bouk in lineup or not?!
Tell me now, Hurley!"

Good monitoring
Kudos for count & correct
But one small quibble

Your first word's tricky
Can be read as 1 or 2
I just avoid it

Let's turn up the heat
Friar, friar, shorts on fire
Extinguish P C

As did Get a Job
You've chosen a tricky word
To end your line two

When Castaways sing
It sounds like 1 syllable
With Billy Joel, 2

Second line is tough
Can be read as 5 or 8
7 is a stretch

Great way to put it
Applies on Castaways' song
Come to think of it

Merriam Webster
Friar is two syllables
Fire one certainly

Interesting source
Should the mojo be risked by
ambiguity?

Not mine to decide
Game Day Haiku is teamwork
We all play our part

---------

As to today's game
Our New England Big East foe
Always plays us tough

With many options
There are many ways to win
To start: play tougher
