rundown of Michigan's riser
Senior Day Haiku
Filed under:
An annual tradition. Special bonus this year: holy pants there are no seniors. Usually I skip a bunch of anonymous walk-ons who never saw the field unless they have a silly name; this year this is it.
Martell Webb
It goes thump. Sometimes
it catches or drops a pass.
Mostly it goes thump.
Perry Dorrestein
Bad back, outed grades
but through it all a kickin'
Punisher tattoo
Steve Schilling
Been around forever
Witnessed the Horror up close
Football purple heart
John Ferrara
Thrown into the fire
just two weeks after switching
'08: the nutshell
Adam Patterson
One last swing hits sod
A shaft of daylight strikes down
Hello two deep
Renaldo Sagesse
Hurling hockey kids,
the largest man in Quebec came
and he was all right
Greg Banks
Took the Moosman crown
as player most likely to
impress your TA
Obi Ezeh
Why did you tattoo
"Stand around, think about plants"
across your torso?
BONUS NOT MEAN HAIKU
Like Schilling, lived
through every last awful bit
and never complained
Jonas Mouton
The west wind in fall
brings everything, and then
takes everything
Mark Moundros
Walk-on captains are
intimidatingly bald
pretty much always
James Rogers
The last vagabond
a-wander from spot to spot:
Dread Pirate Rogers

HAHA.
HAHA.
HAHA.
As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk
the Law runneth forward and back --
For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf,
and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.

My favorites are Moundros and
My favorites are Moundros and
My favorites are Moundros and Mouton.
As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk
the Law runneth forward and back --
For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf,
and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.

One last swing hits sod
A shaft of daylight strikes down
Hello two deep (4 syllables: hel-low-two-deep)
Renaldo Sagesse
Hurling hockey kids,
the largest man in Quebec came (8 syllables: the-larg-est-man-in-Que-bec-came)
and he was all right
Obi Ezeh
Like Schilling, lived (4 syllables: like-Schil-ling-lived)
through every last awful bit (is every 3 or 2 syllables?)
and never complained
Jonas Mouton
The west wind in fall
brings everything, and then (is everything 4 or 3 syllables?)
takes everything (apparently you think it's 4 which makes every 3 which makes Obi Ezeh's 7 an 8 and another fail)
