    Twas' the night before Christmas

    'Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the boards

    Not a poster was slurrin', not even JJlinn;

    The red cards were issued by the Madden forum with care,

    In hopes that Ian Cummings would want to stay there;

    The members were nestled all snug in their beds,

    While visions of Acid's sister danced in their heads;

    And DKgojackets in his cell, and I in my domicile,

    Had just settled down, but only for a while,

    When up in the NCAA boards arose such a clatter,

    I clicked open the window to see what was the matter.

    Away to the subsection I flew like a corner,

    Tore open the thread topic and stared like a foreigner.

    The language and good points of the respected gaming vet

    Gave the shock and awe
    of a Shaq free throw that was nothing but net

    When, what to my wondering eyes could be read,

    But Auburn Alumni, and eight angry threads ,

    With a little old mouse, so lively and quick,

    I knew in a instant that he must be ticked

    More rapid than eagles his issues they came,

    And he hollered, and ranted, and called them by name;

    "Now, Robo QB! now, Poor O-line play! now, lack of bowl patches and Interceptions all day!

    On 1-AA schools, on online dynasties! on inability to get a sack, on Operation Sports I demand my money back!

    So back to the off-topic thread I flew,

    With an arena full of nonsense, and Pjv too.

    And then, in a twinkling, I read something spooky

    The vomiting and sickness was induced by a thread from Dookie.

    As I brought up my hand, and was turning around,

    Down from the home page TJ came with a bound.

    He was dressed all in fur, from his head to his knee,

    And his clothes were all tarnished with schnapps and his throat was with weed;

    A bundle of infractions he had flung on his back,

    And he looked like a k-9 just sniffing out the smack.

    His eyes -- how they twinkled! his 4 teeth just how scary!

    His cheeks were like roses, his nose was wide open just like a prairie!

    His bearded little mouth was drawn up like a bow,

    And the whiskers on his chin were fluffed out like a fro

    The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth,

    And the smoke it produced circled his head like a wreath;

    He was with Chubby and KDRE, a right mean old administrator,

    And I cringed when I saw him, in spite of myself being a long time donator;

    A wink of his eye and a click of his mouse,

    Let me know that he would not tolerate my crap in his house;

    He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,

    And carded all of my posts with an evil little smirk,

    And sticking his finger inside of his nose,

    he farmers blew a wad and up the home page he rose;


    His damage was done and him out of sight, but all that could be heard was


    "Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night."

        Very creative. I didn't know that DK is in the cell again. My favorite part was about all of us sleeping with thoughts of Acid's sister in our heads LOL!

        Merry Christmas to you and everyone here at OS.

          Nice.

          How much time did you take writing this?
          "It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

            Very cool! Although I'm disappointed I didn't make it in there, I mean you are in my sig.


            One thing though, if you ever do something like this again, try not to use black text. Makes it hard for those of us with black backgrounds to read.

              Thanks for the compliments guys. I didn't know if anyone would find it amusing or not, but I figured I'd give it a shot

              Well, I started it in the morning and then just kind of forgot about it until a bout half an hour or so ago, so overall about 45 minutes...

                      That was good this one is by Jeff Foxworthy and when I read yours I had to post this.

                      Twas the night after Christmas and all through the trailer,
                      The beer had gone flat and the pizza was staler,
                      The tube socks hung empty, no candies or toys,
                      I was camped out on my old La-Z-Boy,

                      The kids they weren't talking to me or my wife,
                      The worst Christmas they said they had had in their lives,
                      My wife couldn't argue and neither could I,
                      So I watched TV and my wife, she just cried

                      When out in the yard the dog started barkin'
                      I stood up and looked and saw Sheriff Larkin
                      He yelled, "Roy I amd sworn to uphold the laws
                      And I got a complaint from a feller named Clause."

                      "Clause, I don't know nobody named Clause,
                      And you ain't takin me in without probable cause."
                      Then the Sheriff he said, "The man was shot at last night."
                      I said, "That might've been me, just whats he look like?

                      The Sheriff replied, "Well he's a jolly old feller, with a big beer gut belly
                      That shakes when he laughs like a bowl full of jelly
                      He sports a long beard and a nose like a cherry."
                      I said, "That sounds like my wife's sister Sherri."

                      "It's no time for jokes Roy," the Sheriff he said,
                      "The man I'm describing is dressed all in red
                      I'm here for the truth now, it's time to come clean,
                      Tell me what you done, and tell me what you seen."

                      Well I started to lie then I thought what the hell
                      It wouldn't be the first time I spent New Years in jail.
                      I said, "Sheriff it happened last night about ten,
                      I thought that my wife had been drinking again."

                      When she walked in from works she was white as a ghost
                      I thought maybe she'd seen one of them UFO's
                      But she said that a bunch of deer had just flown over her head
                      And stopped on the roof of our good neighbor Red,

                      Well I ran outside to look and the sight made me shutter,
                      A freezer full of venison standing right on Red's gutter.
                      Well, my hands were a shaking as I grabbed my gun,
                      When outta Red's chimney this feller did run

                      And slung on his back was this bag overflowin'
                      I thought he'd stolen Red's stuff while old Red was out bowlin'
                      So I yelled, "Drop it fat boy, hands in the air."
                      But he went about his business like he hadn't a care

                      So I popped off a warning shot over his head,
                      Well he dropped that bag and he jumped in that sled,
                      And as he flew off i heard him extort,
                      "Thats assault with intent Roy, I'll see you in court

                              It took me somewhere in the neighborhood of around 45 minutes or so. It really wasn't a bad way to pass the time.
