Once again the folks at GoldenStateofMind prove that bloggers on this network are nothing if not classy. They paid up in timely fashion, and what verses these were! I hereby nominate GSoM Writer YaoButtaMing as the official poet laureate of SportsBlog Nation!
I alleged,
That we Warriors would have you sledged,
But in the end,
We were the ones unfledged,
You see,
You were right,
Your blog is in flight,
To be the best in sight,
And I can't believe,
My warriors didn't achieve,
A morsel of respect,
And thus I am a wreck.
But where do I begin?
Your logo has me doing back spins,
With the amazing font,
Your endless grays,
With red-ish rays,
I have to give you so much praise!
But it's not about your looks,
Or your hooks,
It's about a writer named Dave,
Or should we call him David?
Because David beat Goliath,
One man versus the five of us,
Dave is boisterous,
Precious,
Exhibits coolness,
And is absolutely tremendous,
And boy does he have a community,
Posting 500 comments a game,
It's a real shame,
That GSoM can't complain,
For we are too blame,
And one day hope to gain,
What you are able to maintain,
Tonight it was Zack,
To the attack,
And this rookie named Roy,
Who took all our joy,
We didn't have Davis,
But no excuse for our laziness,
Credit the Blazers for their win,
And putting us in our dead spin,
Congratulations to the Blazers,
Making our Warriors act like geezers,
Even with all your brilliance,
We still have one thing in common,
We both have great readers!
Thanks a TON to the GSOM guys. They may come back to make us pay in the last game of the season... Yikes.
