Classless Week 8 Predictions!! The Haiku Vs. The Freeflowing Rhyme

Dr. Jaded
Oct 31, 2009

Jaded โ€“ 59-27

Indignant โ€“ 49-37


Indignant:
After my dominating performance last week when using the Seinfeld quote meme for making my picks Iโ€™ve decided I needed another gimmick to keep up my momentum. Being that I am quite the literary and artistic genius I decided I would write a poem in the form of a Haiku to represent my predictions for each of this weekโ€™s games. (For those of you who skipped the 3rd grade, a Haiku is a classical Japanese form of poetry combining 3 lines with 5, 7, and 5 syllables respectively.)

Jaded:ย  Iโ€™ve never been a fan of Haikuโ€™s, theyโ€™re too structured for me and I hate counting.ย  Iโ€™ve always likes generic rhyming poetry better, so I decided to counter Indignantโ€™s structure with my own and leave it up to the BR community to figure out which they like better.ย  (Yep, itโ€™s a slow weekโ€ฆ)


Broncos (6-0) @ Ravens (3-3)
Indignant:
The Broncos wonโ€™t lose
Baltโ€™s D not what it once was
Mcdaniels fist Pump (Broncos)


Jaded:ย 
Are the Broncos really that good?
Does their power come from Joshโ€™s hood?
Ravenโ€™s schedule has been nuts, all have agreed
Off the bye, at home, this game they need.ย  (Ravens)
ย 

Texans (4-3) @ Bills (3-4)
Indignant:
Schaubโ€™s been top-5 guy
Houstonโ€™s Weapons prove too much
T.O. cries again (Texans)


Jaded:ย 
Fitzโ€™ luck of the Irish, just will not matter
Nor will all of TOโ€™s chatter
Andreโ€™s playing, even he said so
The Texans are for realz YO!!!! (I hate myself for that)ย  (Texans)


49ers (3-3) @ Colts (6-0)
Indignant:
Maybe Smithโ€™s not bust?
Wonโ€™t matter, Colts are too good
Like 9ers with points (Colts)


Jaded:
Well, itโ€™s back to Smith, the number one pick
And suddenly Singletary is less of a prick
He got where he was by being mean
Now he looks soft, and gentle, and clean? (Colts)


Dolphins (2-4) @ Jets (4-3)
Indignant:
Would Rex sit Sanchez,
For not sharing that hot dog?
Weiner lovers win (Jets)


Jaded:
Roses are red and violets are blue
I still love me some Sanchez, and his receivers too
Iโ€™m pretty obsessed, just call me Mariah
And no, Ricky Williams is not the Messiah (Jets)


Rams (0-7) @ Lions (1-5)
Indignant:
Like fight between cripples
Rams best chance for win this year
Worst snoozer on turf. (Lions)


Jaded:
T.I. is in prison, Weezyโ€™s going too
Itโ€™s Dr Jadedโ€™s time, Iโ€™m โ€˜bout to break through
Ainโ€™t nothing to spit about, when it comes to this game
Might as well take this chance so you remember my name (Lions)

Browns (1-6) @ Bears (3-3)
Indignant:
Mangenius? Guess not
Cutlerโ€™s emo hair cutโ€™s gay
Hope Bradford Likes Orange (Bears)


Jaded:
They need some motivation in the C-L-E
The Cavs, Browns, and Inโ€™juns all look like debris
โ€œJust win three games,โ€ the owner should preach
Who am I kidding?ย  Even thatโ€™s a reach (Bears)


Seahawks (2-4) @ Cowboys (4-2)
Indignant:
โ€˜Boys looked good last week
Two enigmatic teams meet
Seahawks get Miles Austinโ€™d (Cowboys)

Jaded:
So wait, Dallas has a stud with a last name of Austin?
Nothing rhymes with that, so Iโ€™m just gonna say โ€˜Bostonโ€™
How has Jerry Jones not married this dude?
A namesake in Dallas puts Jerry in a very happy mood. (Cowboys)


Giants (5-2) @ Eagles (4-2)
Indignant:
Both teams trending down
Jackson is difference maker
Lilโ€™ Eli no likey cold (Eagles)


Jaded:
Oh Eli, Oh Eli, you breathe from your mouth
It makes me so happy, I feel it down south
Speaking of warm and forbidden places
When itโ€™s cold you throw picks, and then itโ€™s off to the races (Giants)


Raiders (2-5) @ Chargers (3-3)
Indignant:
We are seeing LTโ€™s death
When Chargers donโ€™t win 9 games,
Merriman chokes Norv (Chargers)


Jaded:
'Cause I've got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns
And the beer chases my blues away
And I'll be okay

โ€ฆSorry, I was trying to comfort Norv (Chargers)


Jaguars (3-3) @ Titans (0-6)
Indignant:
Owner wants Vince starting
Titans still kings of suckville
Garrard throws all day (Jags)


Jaded:

The corners are terrible, but so is VY
Get ready, Mr. Fisher, youโ€™re gonna need some K-Y
Youโ€™ve had six winning seasons, in sixteen damned tries
Its Shanahan time, as your owner should upsize (Titans โ€“ they have to win at some point, right?)



Vikings (6-1) @ Packers (4-2)
Indignant:
Favre back to tundra
Homecomings always let down
Blue balls are certain (Packers)


Jaded:

Halloween is scary, at least it should be
If youโ€™re Aaron Rodgers your o-line puts you on a tee
Memories from last time make Aaron wet his bed by the gallon
โ€œTundra Turf, meet Mr. Rodgers, Iโ€™m Jared Freakinโ€™ Allenโ€ (Vikings)



Panthers (2-4) @ Cardinals (4-2)
Indignant:
Lifeโ€™s got few sure shots
Donโ€™t get scared, just remember
Delhomme will throw picks (Cardinals)


Jaded:
Take off your mask Jake, this crapโ€™s gotta cease
Itโ€™s Arizona again and they started your streak
Just pretend youโ€™re not old and forget about psych
Else itโ€™ll be YOUR nose broken with Steve Smithโ€™s next strike (Cardinals)


Falcons (4-2) @ Saints (6-0)
Indignant:
Falconโ€™s might be frauds
Saints showed grit matches talent
Pickโ€™em โ€˜till they lose (Saints)


Jaded:

The Saints are realllll good, we realize this now
But they canโ€™t win forever, itโ€™s just not allowed
Iโ€™ll still probably pick you, and add to your streak
But Iโ€™d be remiss if I didnโ€™t mention that Reggis Bush is a damned freak (Saints)
