Topic: My BDBL draft poem ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 01-11-02 09:34 AM Ridgebacks Here I sit upon my ass waiting for a stupid pass I do wish guys would leave a list Cuz then I’d sure be much less pissed. I was going to do a Haiku but I couldn’t remember the number of syllables in each line. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 01-11-02 09:44 AM novamustangs Nice poem Tom, too bad you didn't write a hiaku cause then we could have used the infamous words of Eric Cartman ... "Your hiaku insults have no effect on me, cause I'm regional champion" . Kick ass! Also, on a side note, Rotoworld has changed their website slightly and old book marks may not work.

There he goes, what a shock!! I guess I can use Dante Bichette D'oh! He's taken now as a pinch hitter! Oh S***! Well, maybe Nelson Cruz will still be there. NOOO!! He's gone. It might be a long season in the Country of Bear. Maybe, Mike Trombley or Dreifort will fit the bill. Nope, they are now taken! Ahh... they were over the hill. I NEED a CF, so I'll go after Michael Tucker C'MON! Now he's gone; I am a huge sucker! Perhaps I can still snag Doug Glanville Oh cool, he's available! But, wait! He's awful!! I wish it was my turn so I can get what I want But, by the time its my turn, I'll get stuck with Brad Clontz That's ok, though , this is all in fun. I hope I like my team when this draft is done. (As you can see, slow day at work). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 01-11-02 01:25 PM BDBLcommish Tom, you've inspired me to write a poem of my own. Here goes: These are the saddest of possible words: "Clemens and Chipper and Trot." Trio of all-stars, acquired for useless turds, Clemens and Chipper and Trot. Ruthlessly stealing his fourth straight league title, Marazita will deny that his trading was vital. Yet if not for the charity of his fellow league members, We all could have finally enjoyed a Zoots-less November. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 01-11-02 02:29 PM fmimes Hey, nice work guys!!! I love the poetry. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 01-11-02 03:09 PM novamustangs Ode to the Draft Oh how I love the draft All it's twists and turns Picks stolen all over An owner's heart burns We play with our fake dough As if we really care Overpaying for players By the wishes of Donald Feir But alas my draft is over Players taken too soon 10 mil on Jeff Kent What a baffoon! I'll live vicariously For the rest of the draft And watch my fellow owners Build a team by their craft So all praise the wonderful draft And pick your players with caution Cause hopefully next year It'll be replaced with an AUCTION!!!!
