It's Camp Time!


As reveille sounds at the breaking of dawn,
Each Seahawk awakes with a grunt and a yawn.
It's the first day of mini-camp, it's finally here,
Now line up the rookies to carry our gear!


It's closed to he public, so nobody knows,
Just what is a mini-camp, but everyone goes.
From the eldest of veterans, to the undrafted FAs,
With one notable exception, whose initials are SA!


They call it a mini-camp, but how can this be?
Do the kick off a small football, atop a golf tee?
Whatever the size, to make me a believer,
They'd best use a ball to put the "receive" in receiver!


And all of the questions to come out of the draft,
Is Ruskell a genius or just incredibly daft?
And what's up with Holmy, is this his last year?
Will SA and K-Rob again wear our gear?

On Shaper, on Herndon, on Fisher, on Dyson,
With these Free Agent moves, we'll hit opponents like Tyson!
And returning starters like Pork, Walt and Hass,
Expect this year's Seahawks to kick some Ram Ass!

So slop on the sunscreen, and break out the bug spray,
Because the new season, is unofficially underway.
Mini-camp is upon us, first step toward our goal,
Of Dee-troit in February for the XL Super Bowl!

  1. LOL, well done. Did you do that at work? If so, your boss must be super happy you are a diehard. Very creative, very funny.

  2. Thanks JoSCh. Actually, I did it after reading bedtime stories to the kids, which probably explains Suessian theme!

  3. I am the Dr. Suess master. Once you get into a rhythm with those you can really fly through them. My boy doesn't even like them much, but I always make him pick at least one a night.

  4. Once and a while you get threads that are so informative and insightful, they completely change your perspective and outlook.

    This is not one of those threads.

    LOL guys!

    BTW, JoshSC: Thanks for the new footer material!

  6. Yea, and if we trade for his brother, they'd be B-Ware and Better B-Ware!

    Vinny, it looks like Hutch is holding on to his 02 commemorative balls too!
