'Twas the night before the Game

[Pistons < Spurs]

'Twas the night before the Game, when all through the Palace
The Spurs huddled in fear, as they realized Detroit is not Dallas.
The nets were hung on the rims with care,
With hopes that Tim Duncan would soon cut his hair.


Eva was nestled all snug in her seat.
wishing it was true, about "The size of their feet".
Manu is injured, not walking but hopping,
Wanting to play, and dreams of flopping.


When out on the court, Mason stared with his flow,
Fans jumped to their feet, shouting "Fear The Fro".
Three's and steals, and defensive blocks.
The two best teams, No one else can hold our jocks.


Back and forth, both teams fought,
But the lead the Pistons built, could not be caught.
Rip undoes his mask, as he appears to have an itch.
Chauncey whispers into Bowens ear "Ain't paybacks a Bitch?"


We'll take the win, As victory is sweet.
Yet we still have the taste of last Junes defeat.
The rematch is coming, and man I can't wait.
But this year the Finals, will be in our state.


"Now Chauncey! Now Manu!
Now, Rasho and Ben!
On, Rip! On, Tay!
On, Bowen and Tim!
From the top of my lungs
I say it loud.
Merry Christmas from us all
You make us so proud.

is this supposed to be amusing?

[Marklar MM]

It was good, but I recommend you balance out the pros/cons. It is too pro-Piston.

[Warlord23]

Well, I think it's a pretty decent effort ... nice job with the rhyming, P<S

[Vashner]

Hum.. let's see who wins..

A bunch of your best cars vs our F16 squadron...

Merry Christmas Everyone!!

Merry Christmas until 12:30 PM Eastern then Spurs lock and load.

I agree not a bad poem, this is coming from a guy whose mother was a professional poet who would embarrass me by getting publicity for writing poems in Christmas cards in a mall every year. Now I miss her!

[Prefontaine]

that is actually pretty good. i don't even care its pro-piston :elephant

[Carrera_4S]

Hum.. let's see who wins..

A bunch of your best cars vs our F16 squadron...

DESTROY PISTONS!! LOCK ON>>

Permission to open fire...

That wouldn't be fair to you. I wouldn't even saddle SA with any vehicle made on this side of the atlantic.

[H1Man]

That's actually pretty neat.

[Kori Ellis]

Nice poem.

Merry Christmas to you and the rest of the Pistons fans.

9 hours or so til the game begins.

Here's one I whipped up, with a more Spurs-biased flavor since this is a Spurs board. :lol

Twas the night before tipoff, and all through the house
Not a Piston was pumping, not even Sheed's mouth
The Spurs banner hoisted just one month before
Detroit was defeated, but now back for more

The Spurs were all nestled in crap hotel beds
While visions of Father's Day danced in their heads
When Tim missed the putback and Rob nailed the trey
Here they were again, at the Palace to play

And how many people tuned into the game?
Almost none since they thought the teams boring and lame
But for true fans who did, the game was a treat
We don't give a fuck about the Lakers and Heat

The defense intense, the passing was crisp
And other than Nazr, the Spurs held their grip
Minute by minute, the teams battled on
The lead bounced around like a game of ping pong

Big Ben grabbed boards, Tim Duncan went glass
Parker made layups and was knocked on his ass
But how does it end? We all want to see
I hope the Spurs win with a Big Shot Rob Three

Go Timmy, go Tony, go Rasho and Fin
If Manu was playing, we'd certainly win
Go Van X, go Brent, play hard and don't quit
But even if we lose, it doesn't mean shit

So tune in and watch the two best teams fight
Merry Christmas to Pistons and Spurs fans alike

Good poems except for the rough language.

Budkin, I think your poem would be San Antonio Express-News material if it were "cleaned up".
