Last night after a couple of drinks I penned a short verse to summarize the UConn situation:

T'was the week before Christmas,
and up North in Storrs
the UConn commanders
were asleep at their oars.

Sweet Suzie was nestled
all snug in her bed
contending that research
would cure all our dread.

Warde Manuel was sitting
alone by the phone
to monitor factors
and throw fans a bone.

While young Ollie struggled
his team to control,
Pasqualoni imagined
he might coach alone.

Alas on the Boneyard
the denizens wailed
"Just allow us to follow
the teams that have bailed".

But no such assurance
the leaders could make,
those bad guys in Bristol
our future might take.

So now as we sit
in this season of joy
let us beg all the harder
for our much wished for toy.

An invite to any sustainable group
where passports aren't needed
when to away games we troop.

Don't agree with some of the verses but great job! Big difference between you and HFD after a couple of drinks.

Thanks for the kind words. When working I always did a short verse at this time of year. Haven't done it since retirement. It was fun.
