America’s Sport Is Back! (In Brazil?)

‘Twas the night before football

And men everywhere

Were preparing their lineups

And floofing their chair.

Elsewhere in the house

Was a wife, not yet hiding,

But seeking out places

For comfy abiding,

Retreats where she’ll spend

The next 17 Sundays

Avoiding the shouts.

(Wait, they also play Mondays?)

The refs have made final

The script for the season

Including some muscles

To tear without reason.

Now all of us sigh

As we drift off to bed

Hoping this year the Chiefs

Will get bonked in the head.
