game day haiku

[Samoo]

Back where we belong
Let's take this ship for a ride
Good things will happen

 

[XLCenterFan]

I once wrote a game day haiku
But the stanzas were a bit askew
I went to the dojo
To learn of the mojo
@XLCenterFan he hasn’t a clue.

This is not haiku.
So take your trash talk elsewhere.
You’re an idiot.

 

[Hans Sprungfeld]

Thank you Hans Sprungfeld,
Appreciate your comments,
Haikus are tricky.

But seriously,
Swing back to post number one
Edit out that line

It's a mojo thing
To clean up haiku errors
The gods will thank you

Your soul will feel good
And coaches and players both
Will perform better

Hurley back in dance
Huskies clamp crab eatin' 'pins
Rudy says hello

Don't listen to this
Message board gas bag alert
So much weirdness here

You, him, ev'ryone
Is it checkers, chess, or Go?
In what dimension?

A day of chaos
The oddest day one ever
Eye of the tiger

Time to walk the beach
Step away from the madness
Clear head for later

 

[XLCenterFan]

Golf in the morning.
And golf in the afternoon.
Ready for showtime.

The wait is over.
We are back where we belong.
U-C-O-N-N!

Hurley back in dance
Huskies clamp crab eatin' 'pins
Rudy says hello

Welcome, once again
You arrive later than most
With solid haiku

This is what we need
Like defensive stops, free throws,
And no turnovers

To close out close games
UConn's winning formula
Has always served well

Terps are red-Not green
Red Danny-Will not be seen
Blue or white-Looks clean

Shut your mouth gasbag
Nobody listens to you
Or cares what you say

Internet tough talk.
You would not dare in real life.
In real life? Victim.

Break out the sleds, 'skies!!
Mushing in March has returned!!
Still, don't touch your face.

There are no victims
Volunteers, violators,
message board gas bags

Lets just win the game
and get to the second round
i hate the first round.

Boneyard oddity
Affected punctuation
Poor toilet training?

James Bouknight is primed
Len Bias is not playing
Let’s have turtle soup

Hyphenate the word
Mucho commas -Quite absurd
Prefer -I have heard

 

[Hans Sprungfeld]

Hyphenate the word
Mucho commas -Quite absurd
Prefer -I have heard

Weird and disjointed
Pretentious, without a point
Really makes no sense

It looks silly too
And has no consistency
Detracts from message

Commas have purpose
Same for periods, colons,
and semi-colons.

Exclamation points,
parantheses, question marks,
and hyphens do too.

Yours offer nothing
Except to say, "I am me,
because I do this."

They confuse readers
Without entertaining them
Clif makes much more sense

Too late to stop now?
Afraid of being boring?
You gotta be you?

"You be you; others
are all already taken"

Over thinking this
Sometimes ignorance is bliss
Swing and miss on "diss"

 

[OviedoFLHusky]

Huskies are hungry
Turtle soup is for dinner
Eat 'em up, big dogs!

 

[huskyjawz]

I awoke today
A pink turtle on my bed
Left by my daughter

Co-incidence NOT
Fed to my dog to destroy
Like Huskies will Terps

Poor kid cried all day
But she did right and gave in
Her mojo is strong

Maybe yes or no
You remind me of OldBosd
I called him OlbDosb

I respect haiku
As a rule-based discipline
Punctuation too

Ultimately, I
think it affects the mojo.
Doesn't mean I'm right

When it's too cutesy
It's like that too fancy pass
that's a turnover

And I remember
when, "I lack experience"
backed your ask for help

Is it clarity
or personality that
that motivates you?

Took one for the team
No doubt she'll be rewarded.
Happy canine too

Haiku Hans the best
Will give the hyphen a rest
OK Off my chest

 

[Doctor Hoop]

This post made me laugh
You made one little mistake
The Terps are Big 10!

Living in the past
I remember Len Bias
Beating UNC

Better than Jordan
Alas, the cocaine took him
And Celts lost a star

I've repaired the post
Mojo takes accuracy
And five-seven-five

Rhyming I let go
Let some Zen master scream, "No,
they hurt the mojo."

Sure ain't gwine be me
Cuz after that travesty
My time's lots more free

So here goes....

Honestly, I knew we were screwed yesterday when I awoke to this tire fire of a haiku thread.

I purposely didn't participate because it only got worse from there--even chief came by to drop a turd..

The damage was done.

And no, this wasn't an attempt at haiku. Thread didn't deserve it.
