Official Steelers - Bengals Poem

[Menudo]

For all of my fans.

 

In the Stadium that is named, for the great Paul Brown,

The Bengals were fired up, cause the Steelers were in town;

Cincy’s early season surge, was going to be given a test,

As this was clearly a battle, between the AFC North’s best;

 

Can the Bengals beat the Steelers, is the question that remains,

And the answer looked like a yes, as Rudi was getting big gains;

Carson finds Chad, for what appeared a Touchdown at first glance,

And the showoff Johnson, broke into his own river-dance;

 

However, the call was overturned, after review by the ref,

And Shane Graham’s attempt for 3, sailed wide to the left;

After just 3 plays, the Bengals got the ball back,

And Carson began leading, another offensive attack;

 

Though they got them to bend, they couldn’t break the Steelers ‘D’,

And after another long drive, the Bengals were forced to settle for three;

The Steelers got the running game moving, with the Bus and Fast Willie,

Then Ben finds Heath Miller for six, so wide open it was silly;

 

The Bengals added three more, making it 7-6 Steelers, as the first half subsided,

Despite being outplayed, the Steelers were leading, but it was far from decided;

The Steelers got the ball first, but the Bengals took the momentum real quick,

As on his first pass of the half, Ben had thrown this season’s first pick;

 

But there wasn’t much time, for the Steeler fans to be sad and mope,

Because Carson’s first pass of the half, was intercepted by Hope;

Hope’s solid return, set the Steelers up, to take a nice lead,

But the Bengal ‘D’ held tough, and we settled for three from Jeff Reed;

 

Three plays later, Kimo tipped the ball, sending it on an awkward descend,

Into the stomach of Aaron Smith, the Steelers great Defensive End;

The Steelers offense wasted no time, making the Bengals day darker,

As the good guys got a 37 yard touchdown, from Fast Willie Parker;

 

The Steelers had pushed the lead to 17 to 6;

And the Bengals next drive, failed to move the sticks;

Ben and Bus were moving, on plays of Whisenhunt’s designs,

Big Ben’s back to pass, and it is a touchdown to Hines;

 

Hines tried to emulate Chad’s dance, and probably wasn’t as good,

But the one big difference, is that Hines touchdown stood;

The Steelers were in control of the game, and beginning to reveal,

That the AFC North Title, still runs through the city of Steel;

 

The end of the game, was simply a formality,

The Bengals and their fans, had been sent back to reality;

When the dust settled, it was an easy Steelers win,

As they continue to beat the Bengals, again and again;

 

The Steelers weren’t preparing enough for him, in pre-game, Chad would profess,

Now show some class Chad, put Ike on your list, and a big checkmark under ‘YES’;

To be the best you have to beat the best, is what experts often say,

The Bengals met the best, and were quite simply turned away;

 

Carson and T.J. were claiming, that the better team had not won,

Now, to steal a line from Ace Ventura, Fiction sure can be fun;

The Steelers got a big win, against some fierce and hungry cats,

And now we get ready for a matchup, against those Baltimore Sewer Rats;

 

The Steelers move to 4-2, and halted the Bengals growl,

And now I go back to waving, that wonderful terrible towel;

And now to the greatest Steeler fan, who was sent to heaven above,

This poem is dedicted to you Dad, with every bit of my love;

Hines tried to emulate Chad’s dance, and probably wasn’t as good,

But the one big difference, is that Hines touchdown stood;

 

LOL^ so true...

Keep in mind, this is just one man's opinion, but that schlock was unreadable.

 

Was that supposed to be iambic pentameter?

 

No tempo. Lame, forced rhymes where they didn't really fit or make sense.

 

Just a bad overall effort.

 

Like I said - unreadable.

Vet, I am not a writer of any kind. The first one of these I did was for fun after the Steelers beat the Eagles last year to razz my friends. I got tons of responses from people that absolutely loved them. The Steeelers liked them enough to make them a part of their official website. I actually get several e-mails per week from those saying how much they like them. Some say they print them out and pass them around to co-workers and friends. So, though, I respect your opinion, lots of people really love them, but those people and myself, are obviously not as smart as you are.

 

I get the feeling you are not a fan of mine to begin with, after claiming I was lying about my football career, so I'll just chalk this up to another chance for you to rip me. Good work.

Menudo, don't mind Vet, he's one of those someone-peed-in-my-Wheeties always angry Huddlers from what I can tell. It was a fun read, keep them up. Be sure to have some lines prepared Dec 4 to follow things like , "But Ben was sacked", "The Bus fumbled at the goal line", "Cowher broke his bottom jaw from scowling too hard", etc...
