dunno if I'll be able to keep this up all season, but here goes for Week 1:

 

guarding Blue endzone
like Cerberus and Charon:
the twin Jeffs of Death

----------------------------

Fugitive reboot:
stubble jumpers nearly beat
by one-armed QB

----------------------------

jerseys stained bright red
cue Macbeth soliloquy:
"out, you damn stripes! out!"

----------------------------

FNF remake:
just like the rider game but
the one-armed guy wins!

Winnipeg's motto?

"If opponents can not score,

We will for sure win"

The Riders Suck

Suck suck suck they suck

They really suck

Green Riders without the horses
The Blue wave crashes on the shore
Team unbeaten, only illusion

Week 6 TiCats at Argos, LDC rematch

a tense back and forth,
a greenhorn kicker falters,
drama aborted

@TrueBlue4ever you gotta get your rhyming quick six haiku in here .. that's legit THN (the Haiku Network) Top Ten material there, so can't leave it buried in the season thread.

I do requests:

Bo - hospital ward

Maier adored. But ‘til points scored

Quick Six horse is bored

or

Bo’s return is due

Maier’s aim true, but 1 win?

Quick Six will be glue

Riderfans were saying that their favourite player was Liegghio.

Banjo Bowl

Harris v. Campbell
and forum v. Liegghio;
it's headhunting day.

 

Roughrider game plan:
establish Powell early
it doesn't matter.

The Riders Suck

I was right right right

They really suck

Battle of Alberta (halftime)

All the excitement
of comatose dinosaurs
drowning in tar sands

 

(except that drowned dinosaurs can actually be fantastic ... the Royal Tyrel dinosaur musuem of Drumheller is one of the treasures of the world.  See it.)

Punching? Ejected!

Rider D green with envy

Lol Isaac Harker

Watching Zach Collaros is fun.

Rider fans losing their minds more fun

Cry, whine, ***** ya losers.

Week 7 Stamps @ Hamilton

Huffer, D!ck and Bo
exiled from football heaven;
Stamps' paradise lost.

Week 7 Argos @ Saskatchewan

Dear coach Dickenson:
Please put Jamal Morrow in,

Week 7 Bombers at Antlers (guest poet: James Wilder, Jr)

flex flex flex flex flex:
flex flex flex flex,  flex flex flex!
oh ****, did we lose?

Bombers at Antlers (regular idiot)

Athletic QB
lays trap for Blue! Alas, he's
no Rocky Butler.

Edited September 19, 20214 yr by johnzo

Bombers game on the road
Ups and downs, but in the end
Elks in the Blue headlights

Sloppy bomber win

Suitor likes the heavy ball

Mourtada bye bye

A kicker please

Someone taller than my knees

directionally left helps

I swear I think you deliberately miscount the syllable rule on purpose to make my OCD brain explode!  Love the content though. 

Blue wave cresting high

Elk flex is so, so stupid

Biggie gets last laugh

 

Week 8 Alouettes at Toronto

Turnovers and flags--
these Als are not dirty birds,
they are sloppy ones.

SSK at BC

Epic orange collapse,
Green stock swells. My Advice? Pride
cometh before fall

EDM at OTT

Four-way tie for last

Heavy balls don't win you games

BC here we come
