The Off-Season Blues

Well, now I'm depressed because of the Dave & Brett news. Depressed enough to write little piece...

...

Another season in the books

Another putrid campaign

Another year of watching others

Pop the glorious champagne

...

Those scumbag Rangers lost the West

But will prolly beat the birds

They sure might go on to win it all

Just to anger us beyond words

...

Footer and Z have packed their bags

Brownie may retire

And now, Dave and Brett are gone

Throwing gas upon the fire

...

It took a furious rally

Just to finish one game to the rear

Of the awful pace we had to face

When we were 'terrible' last year

...

Our roster still looks feeble

In fact, it really sucks

So far behind, the new league won't mind

When we spend our $30 million bucks

...

Sure we've got some prospects

Tell that to Kansas City

They've got young talent in spades

But their picture still isn't pretty

...

Our ballpark is a ghost town

There's dust in half the seats

But next year will be better!

...As Ranger fans flood our streets

...

We've got a top notch architect

Laying down the law

But he's building a bridge to the future

With his only material, straw

...

And then there's the upcoming switch

Mutilating the past 50 years

Where we will be subjected

To Red Sox and Yankee jeers

...

Enjoy the bitter winter folks

Try to forget what you've seen

Start bracing for spring training early

It's gonna be an unlucky '13

...
