Mac is QB1 (a sonnet)

[jdlboot14]

It's time.

It's been three long years for Patriot Nation,
Living in despair of football oblation.
Trapped in the QB carousel-of-uncertainty,
And downright offensive offense-absurdity.
From Cam to Mac, to Zap and back.
From Josh Mc-D to Matty-P.
But from one Bill comes a second Billy.
The one to restore hope of relevancy.
Now with our hearts, and full embrace,
We must unite, and together face:
Our beloved Pats have just one man,
To lead us to the top again.
Despite our divisions, and trite intuitions,
The passionate pitches, and elaborate visions.
Our one clear chance, our quarterback,
Deserves the chants, he goes by Mac.


(Ian - if this doesn't earn me a "starter" ranking, I don't know what will)

It's not in sonnet format but it is well done. The Grammar Police will also give it a .

I love the creativity, but Mac is kinda mid.
Hopefully he proves me wrong

Cheer for Mac till your faces turn blue
His destiny is set
A QB 2

PS..............Wish it wasn't so

Nice poem
Fancy words
With a rhythmic rhyme
But if my brain didn't
Know it
My feet did
Because they are
Longfellows

The starter ranking is just based on post count

Mac is back
Bill is thrilled
Billy O will show
Mac how to throw
But his arm is weak
He needs a physical freak
Instead he got Juju
Who some think is doodoo
But I bet he can block!
And post on Tick Tock
On our way again to 8-9
Back in purgatory at draft time
Post Brady is no easy street
Rinse and repeat

Not a sonnet but how about a limerick?

There once was a guy named Zappy
Who as a quarterback is kinda crappy
The team said no more
And showed him the door
Now he’ll make an XFL team quite happy.

How’s that? Feedback welcome.

This Is one of the best posts I've ever read IMO. Great post! Even if it took the defense to not be as great, and Mac excelled we would then know, and feel solidified that Mac is the QB Going forward. This is great!

Quality trolling here

Yeah, two lines too many.

There once were JEST fans
Who thought their team didn't suck
They were all confused

 

[sb1]

There was the GOAT Qb named Tom
Under pressure he was always so calm
He threw so many darts
That broke his opponents hearts
They went all home crying to mom

Yeah, two lines too many.

And not in the traditional forms of Italian (octave) and (sestet) or English (three quatrains and a rhyming couplet [ababcdcdefefgg]).
