A TPJ Haiku (feel free to add your Royals haikus, 5/7/5)

Cannot hit the ball
Replacement glove on defense
Why Dayton Moore Why?

Casting through the zone
He reels a seven-hopper
To a waiting glove.

Had To Recommend

I used to be an A's fan until they left town and got good.

Freel is odd pickup
But it does beg the question
Moore hears voices too?

Farney slides: he’s safe!
While Freel himself, returning
To the dugout, sits.

rec'd, but let me modify slightly

Grit, grit, grit, grit, grit
Grit, grit, grit, grit, grit, grit, grit
Grit, grit, grit, grit, Freel!

You all mock Dayton
But neither Freel nor Farney
Have ever been Braves

Twelve million per year
Stone legas and a fading bat
K C fans got jobbed.

Now For TPJ

TPJ just sucks.
This is a truism, no?
DFA him now.

Dayton Moore worried
Offseason problems made worse
Giant ball of suck

Willie is still bad
Apology not needed
Mellinger pouts on

How about a Limmerick...

there once was a club from Kansas City
whose offense and defense were shitty
so they made a deal
for veteran named Freel
consumating their love of the gritty

We always did feel the same, We just saw it from a different point of view, Tangled up in blue.

TPJ again

TPJ has “it”
He can hit it one handed
Surely he is great

a personal note

I was at the beach
For two weeks, no Royal games
Why did I come back?

Royals mlb.com page haiku

Here we go again—
Soon the ‘yals MLB Page
Won’t show the standings.

Rany’s a blogger
and he lives in Chicago.
Why ban him? and how?

undefined format

Hoped Moore would be a pro,
but since everyone knows
Farnsworthless
is worth less
than 9 mil, we got hosed.

(in my head, the meter and rhythm sort of remind me of Judge Smails’s boat christening speech.)

TPJ

To Pena or not
That is the question to ask
Moore’s replacement now

Go Royals!

recent moves

TPJ can stay
Luis Hernandez must go
Where is the justice?

TPJs little voice in his head (perhaps we call him King Suck-tastic-Mc-Crap-ola)

Redemption not here
My Right hand still hurts a lot
Thank you training staff

and I’m the little voice inside the mind of 2X2L. I told him he should write something that isn’t so negative, and he came up with this. Well, he came up with the idea, and I smoothed it out for him. It’s a memory from our favorite game that we attended at (then) Royals Stadium, June 13, 1978.

Daylight gone, the sky
Around the flags and standards
Grades through royal blue.
