Pre-Big-Game Haiku

Tired, so tired
Take the taste out of my mouth
By roasting weenies.

Ordinarily
Running backs, not cornerbacks
Are ankle breakers.

Which Kevin Hogan
Do we see on Saturday?
Salvage the season.

We're leaving Las Vegas
On Sunday 12/21
Victory in hand.

Farm will rise again
Team's reach should exceed grasp or
What's the Rose Bowl for?
—Jeff Suto

Irrelevant Game
Two losers, pitched in battle
Back to normalcy.
—Richey Neuman

Would it be mean to write a haiku about Josh Shaw?

"USC cornerback Josh Shaw admitted to school officials that he had fabricated a story about rescuing a nephew from drowning and lied about how he suffered ankle injuries, the school announced Wednesday." —Los Angeles Times

Yes, it is mean, but
What would Manti Te'o do?
College kids f up.
—Gary Tyrrell

Ordinarily
Running backs, not cornerbacks
Are ankle breakers.
—Jeff Suto
