Most of us who are fans know this depression. Now what?
Season's Over Depression
Oh, woe is me. Oh, woe is me!
No NFL on TV for me to see.
Season’s over. Playoffs, too.
Oh, my, what am I to do?
I am as lost now as I can be.
Sure, next week is Super Bowl
But, reality, does not console
The loss of both MY teams on
TV – they’re both now long gone
So, for cheering them, I’m in a hole.
Their season’s done. I’m depressed.
What do I do, you might suggest?
Golf, hockey, or basketball
Are just not for me at all…
Baseball? I snore by the 3rd, at best.
Nope, it’s football starting September
Is the sports joy which I remember
Players running hard and crashing
Quarterbacks and their long passing
Without these, my flame’s just ember.
Nor will next August start my season:
Exhibition games simply have no reason
I'd rather watch fresh paint dry
Than watch practice games, so I
Suffer seven months ‘till football’s pleasin’…
