So based on a 2006 playoffs theme, this is what I have so far. Lathum, my apologies if you don't like, but I incorperated my changes to your poem. I don't know if I am happy with either of the Limmericks I wrote. The Limmerick is supposed to be funny, rough humor type of poem at times. Mine seem too standard and dull. Does anyone want to take a shot at a funny limmerick based on the 2006 playoffs? (or any of the other ones for that matter)

Limmericks:


#1
Brady, Tomlinson and Mcnair
all play with a certain flair.
But Manning stepped in,
He knew how to win
to survive a first half patriot scare.

#2
In Indy, they couldn't win the big game,
All of the fans thought it was ashame.
But Manning ran the board
and Dungy thanked the Lord,
all of the Bears fans said Rex was to blame.


Haikus

#1
Twelve teams with one goal
to win in the bitter cold --
The Colts reign supreme.

Acrostic:

#1
Playoffs never let us down
Lots of cheers, cries and frowns
Adam Vinateri kicking against old foes
Young Chargers fans cheering on the pros
Offense is the key to the Saints win
Fumbling a snap was Romo's chagrin
Five turnovers were the Bears' demise
So we watched Manning claim the prize.

Rhyming scheme:
#1
In week one the Chiefs were bums
and Romo became allthumbs

The eagles looked alive
and the jets took a dive.

Vinatieri shined bright in week two
and the Saints were led marching by Drew

Marty was Marty
and DA BEARS spoiled Hasselbecks party

Peyton took over week three
casting aside all the demons AND Tom Brady

Bears D came to play
and Reggie, Drew and Duece had to call it a day

then it was time for week four
Devon and the Bears sprinted through the door

Peyton didn't even bat an eye
And in the end of it all the Colts were riding high
