YES!!!! I'm ready for lotsa football.....
Great game on Thursday (I'm a Peyton fan).
Good poem that read well and the ability to keep its shape is a skill by itself. I'm enjoying Florida this week!!!!
Regards, John

We've had some great storms for you. I was not happy about Thursdays game. I had to quit watching it, I was too emotional. =} I haven't been a Bronco fan since they dumped Timmy, but I do admit Peyton is one of the greats. Thanks for the 5 stars. Rox

Comment from Keelan Cloud

Good

Very nice. Form was brilliant(LOL). I just hate to see any football work that doesn't praise only the Oklahoma Sooners. And Tebow? I had almost forgiven him for the national championship game, but you re-awoke that image.

I'm sorry if I brought back painful memories. I'm watching the Ravens get bet by the evil Broncos. Stupid Ravens! Anyway thanks so much. Oklahoma is a very good school. =}

:) Well since I am from New York, I have to cheer the Giants, lol Yet I cheer this poem because it is fun and in the spirit of the season and very creative to create a football with your poem, I have to learn those skills

Thanks so much. Shape poems aren't hard, they just take a lot of time. Rox

Our English football has started and I love to listen to my teams. I have two. One in the county I was born in, and the other where I have lived on and off for years. I never used to like it, our football isn't the same as the teams you mentioned, at least I don't think it is. But just as exciting. I think you wrote this well, Rox, it certainly has lots of passion!! Enjoy your season! xsx Sandra

This is great, but I don't watch professional football anymore, they allow too many criminals to play. Until they start not tolerating criminals, I won't ever watch it. But I like your poem.

Thanks David. Yes, there is a lot of bad boys in FB. They've gotten away with so much their whole lives and just keep thinking they can. Rox

The poem is written with passion and precision in presentation.
Sure the meter isn't perfect but the tale is describing an important aspect of your life and so - Go football.

I can tell this is from a football fan. A Timmy Tebow football fan. I can see how worrying about the meter and keeping the shape would be difficult. Happy Season!

I can see that took a bit of work let alone skill to make such a perfect football. When Jim was alive we watched the games together. We were avid fans. When he died I never watched another game . Didn't have the heart. I hope your team wins. Nancy
