We've seen people's creativity in the photoshop thread - are there any wordsmiths here?

There was a great guard named Nash, and another in the East called Flash. They get all the praise for their wonderful ways But they won't win if their big men don't bash. and retro NBA-style There once was a giant named Wilt With mighty foes on the court he would tilt. His basketball plays were sure to amaze, but on 20,000 his legend was built.
There once was a Rocket named Smith Who could jet with the best he played with When he ran out of steam He would dish to the Dream Before Maxwell committed his fifth.
I got a nice hummer from Liz I don't think she quite knew the biz It sure made me frown she sneezed and bit down And now there's some blood when I whiz
There once was a man from Karpas Whose balls were made out of brass In stormy weather They clanged together And lightning flew out of his ass!

A poster named Fatty said his part About a thread he did not even start. That's the problem I say about young folks today They just don't appreciate great art. ---------------------------------------------------------- There was a commissioner Stern Who swore he'd make JVG learn. But a hundred grand fine did not get him in line, And Houston loved Coach in return.
There once was a man named Joe Gunn Who in bed was supposed to be fun. A defect in his bod Cause a split in his rod And two heads are better than one.
There once was a man full of malice. Today he was a little more than callous. For his favorite team lost, Making him ever so cross, Causing him to scream, "DUCK FALLAS!"
I present to you this highly offensive limerick I made up in class after a racial discussion last semester. There once was a limey named Lew, Who wanted to capture a Jew He flung many a penny but couldn't catch any So instead went to pub for a brew.
