Your Team Sucks Haiku Contest


Babes Love Baseball has teamed up with TBS Hot Corner to hold a contest to see who can write the best haiku for grieving fans whose teams are already or soon-to-be done for the 2009 season.

Be thoughtful or crass, sympathetic or sarcastic. We don't care. We're just going to choose the one we like best -- from the comments section -- and pick the winner on Monday, October 5th.

The TBS Hot Corner Prize Pack includes an Adidas Laptop Bag, a Nike Golf Longsleeve pullover, a sleeve of Nike ONE golf balls and a 16 oz. Tervis Tumbler. The BLB Prize Pack includes a BLB hat and t-shirt.

Okay, go.

Update: You win, Bassmaster. First, your haiku was fact-based. Second, it was not about football. Well done.

This one is specific to the Arizona Cardinals:

Antrelle Rolle once bit
on a fake tennis ball throw,
just like my dumb dog.

Daniel said...

Nationals' pastime
Was waiting for the Redskins
Still need Hope & Change

Bassmaster said...

I hate the Tigers
And I can't stand Magglio
I hope they blow it.

Chris said...

For Blue Jays Fans:

Sucked Again This Year,
At least Rios is long gone,
Thanks for Hill and Lind

Chris said...

Another for Jays Fans:

Toronto needs help
Can CB4 Play Baseball?
Bring on the Raptors

Autumn in D.C.
Global warming won't help 'Skins
End zone frozen fast.

pyrotech9 said...

Promise much, blow bucks;
Act confused, fall flat, shift blame:
'Skins denote D.C.

Bryan said...

Greinke for Cy Young,
Bullpen blows, can't hit or field,
Thank you Dayton Moore

Bryan said...

Miguel Olivo,
Yuniesky Betancourt,
And Mike Jacobs. Fuck!

my bad...repost:

Woe is you Cubs fan
Here's to a hundred more years
Of north side whining

DL said...

also:

an A Z cards post?
this blog is baseball focused
NOT babes love football

M said...

Cubs are out again
God, one oh one and counting
"Wait 'till next year" sucks

dmac said...

October baseball
minus your favorite team
equals less heartburn

John G said...

Farewell, Metrodome
Teflon sky to lose fly balls
Target Field next year!

JK said...

AL East upstarts
Gifted Series run last year
We dared hope again.

For my beloved Blue Jays:

Memories of the spring
Keep us warm in October
That and the bourbon.

Julie said...

Ozzie is a tool
A.J. is quite hated too,
The White Sox just suck.

Jeanine said...

we'll get 'em next year
one hundred forty two days
until spring training

Aggieangler said...

Finally rolling
September approaching so fast
Blew it at the last

- Rangers fan for 20 years!

Aggieangler said...

Angels, Red Sox, Uggggh!
Hoping against hope to last
Fading for the fall

Aggieangler said...

Chipper Jones chopped hard
Tball play hit in the dirt
No braves postseason

Pyrotech9 said...

For Nationals fans:

Equinox starts Fall.
Washington's began in May.
Global warming? Hah!

Pyrotech9 said...

Passenger pigeons
Have nothing on Orioles -
Neither flies next week.

Pyrotech9 said...

Two for the Yankees:

Many hate U.S.:
"Yanks grabbed men that others loved."
Other fans relate.

Fielding, steals, and bunts -
Insurgents' plan to beat the
Big guns of the rich.
