'TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE FOOTBALL,

<p style="color:rgb(20,24,35);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">when all through the house;

Not a creature was stirring, 'cept left clicks on my mouse.

The fantasy lineup was hung by the chimney with care, in hopes that Julius Thomas will soon be there,

The children were nestled all snug in their beds, while visions of Blake Bortles danced in their heads.
And Mama in her jersey and me in my cap, we just settled our wagers before Tinker's long snap,

When out on the field, there rose such a clatter, I hurried to EverBank to see what was the matter,

Away to the press box I flew like a flash, tore open the door, and misplaced my stash,

The moon on the breast of the new chosen Roar,

Gave the lustre of midday to the cheerleaders I adore,

When what to my wandering eyes should appear, but a huge yellow cat and 53 players I hold dear,

And a pot bellied man putting up such a fuss,

I knew in an instant - that must be coach Gus.

More rapid than Eagles, his players they came,

Gus whistled and shouted and called them by name.

Now Blake! Now 'Cedes!

Now Yelden! Now Marks!

On Cyprien! On Colvin!

On Odrick, you start!!

To the top of the division, To the top of the game!

Now dash away Carolina! Dash them all, make our name!!!


Go Jags!!


 

Go Jags!
...But it's not nighttime yet.

Brilliantly done, bravo.
haha thanks... I obviously have too much time on my hands, but have not posted in a long time so I figured I would share.  

Very well done! do you write other things too? seriously, that was awesome.

I mean you pried some of it from santa's cold dead hands but still.. and this is post #3000. Glad I have a life.

Thanks lol!  I knocked this out in 10 minutes this morning waiting for my latte to brew.  I just usually post my nonsense on FB, but do not write.  Quit my real job and started up a kayak eco tour company so I have time on my hands lately.  Hope to share more on here instead of just reading everything.

That's certainly a gamble! I like it! I quit my job and moved to southern California (with no job) to join the giant legion of Jaguars fans out here.

Best wishes on the new business, that's one thing this country needs, more small businesses.

Football Eve. I get nervous knowing I'm either going to be extremely happy, or extremely depressed. And its been the latter for the past 8 years.
Nice!
