I like haiku. Not the real stuff; limiting yourself to 17 syllables seems an odd way of expressing yourself. But I like sports haiku. So, in the interest of maintaining... uhhhh... my interest... I call on all you Rocket fans to post your Rocket haiku here. I will start. Cornrows and headbands Fashion statement run amok Moochie, Wiz, Cat: stop. *********** 48 losses Lottery bound before March Glory days, long gone *********** Creaking and groaning Ancient joints prevent quickness Hakeem, please retire *********** A new arena We must have soon. Otherwise? Hello, Louisville *********** The new domain name? Stroke of pure genius by Clutch Fans know the real deal The old domain name? No one goes there. Very sad. All the hits are ours. ************* ------------------ Anyone who advocates the use of violence should be beaten, tortured, and killed (painfully if possible).
Did we watch the SouthPark repeat last night and get inspired? ------------------ RocketFuel is taking the summer off!
Nope. I didn't know South Park did haiku. I thought fart jokes were more their speed. Actually, I was reading some Texas Longhorn football haiku and just about pissing myself laughing. This stuff makes me giggle. ------------------ Anyone who advocates the use of violence should be beaten, tortured, and killed (painfully if possible).
Dammit BK! Now you got me thinking about some.... Brian, Brian K administrator you making poetry c c dot net addiction is what you are read every day Steve Francis, point guard dunks on anyone around ask Sabonis about crotch Cuttino Mobley an unstoppable first step no one can touch him Scottie Pippen, ass Deserter and name caller You are Kobe's b**ch Rudy T, C D Finders of hidden jewels and this year's pick is.... Must stop with Haiku This has really gone too far Blame it on B K! ------------------ RocketFuel is taking the summer off!
LHutz LUVs his HIKU's BrianKagy loves the Haiku, too LHutz ex-wife the HO not really a Rocket Haiku, but I thought I owed the DUKE the last line, cause of my faux pais yesterday.
Haiku is so, well, Limiting in expression It never sounds right It really is sad I mean, this is the playoffs And we're not in it So boredom sets in And we all start going nuts We get poetic This doesn't seem right We should focus on the draft Or the offseason But here we all are Wasting creativity This is BASKETBALL I guess I'm saying When it comes to the Rockets Forget the haiku I think they deserve Something more like a sonnet To do them justice ------------------ "There are three kinds of lies: Lies, Damned Lies, and STATISTICS..." - Mark Twain -
What are you people smoking...can I have some? ------------------ We're going to miss you Chuck! Thanks for all the memories!
Francis to Houston! We lower our shorts for a smooch from Bob Costas Finding the Wizard at last, Dorothy demands: What's with the long socks? Under the table I cradle the lone french fry Hambone neglected That seated sculpture -- Could it be Rodin's Thinker? Or is it Bryce Drew? "We did that s---!" crows Mobley before NBC yanks the audio Moochie's paradox: a woman with facial hair and yet, she got game When the 3's don't fall Matt Bullard makes a fine place to hang one's laundry 42 million! Who says you can't make money writing children's books? Sigh. No more shoe deals. "Hakeem Olajuwon here for Metamucil..."
Will, you are a monster! That hanging laundry on Bullard is an all time classic. As Jim Rome might say, "Rack 'em!" I stand in awe. ------------------ "No one gets out ALIVE!" SaveOurRockets.com
I'd love to participate, but don't quite remember the requirements for haiku (maybe when I was in 10th grade?). Can anyone help me out? ------------------ "Okay KG, next time down, you give Cousin Billy his turn, then he'll give Uncle Joe his turn, then we'll give Shaq a turn." -Rudy T, in the Dream Team 2000 huddle
Here's mine : Huffingn and puffing there's got to be a way please don't make me stay. ************************** Williams shoots the three please dont ask for D I can rupture my knee *************************** Cato jumps What a man whatever !! **************************** Air Bullard for the three then he drives what a brick **************************** Moochie the student Tina Thomson the teacher ouch that hurt **************************** At the end of the bench there sits a man Drew is his name ***************************** Devin we hardly knew you hope you dont stay what a waste of space. ***************************** where is that team that has Hakeem the playoffs is not for me I guess this is it .......... ------------------ What now ?
Freak -- the rules are: first line 5 syllables second line 7 syllables third line 5 syllables and I think you're supposed to talk about something in nature. But hey, with only 17 syllables, who has the time? The best joke haikus, which have been circulating on the Internet for years, are Jewish. Here are a couple of them: No fins, no flippers, the gefilte fish swims with some difficulty. A lovely nose ring. Excuse me while I put my head in the oven.
Thanks Will! Here's a few to warm up with: Lash out at Rudy? Didn't you know you'd end up... Dealing coke again? Watch the Astros? Huh? Right. Season over equals Beer and 'hair metal' Fantasy trade talk? Please shut up. For the last time -- We're not getting Tim ------------------ "Okay KG, next time down, you give Cousin Billy his turn, then he'll give Uncle Joe his turn, then we'll give Shaq a turn." -Rudy T, in the Dream Team 2000 huddle
