Title: Signal stealing haiku
Post by: NeilT on November 14, 2019, 08:39:05 pm
There was a time when this site would have known exactly how to respond to allegations of illegal sign stealing.  Let's remember our glory. Offer up your sign stealing haiku.

Camera relay,
Pound bats against metal can.
Batter takes a curve.

Hallway lonely, silhouette
Dejected, batless

Altuve at plate.
Our Yankees, who is better?
Sign stolen, ball gone.

Sanchez fingers wiggle
Can is banged, slider is hanged
Poor Jomboy enraged

Slider not sliding
Changeup hangin. Fastball off.
You hear a whistle?

From the Yankee perspective:

They can't be this good
There has to be some cheating
Or why would we lose

Altuve up. Great!
Crucial runs, second and third.
BANG. K flailing. Fuck.

Let's go over the signs again: 5 whistles, 7 thumps, 5 crying yankees fans

Home wins prove cheating
Three road wins, four home losses
To cover it up



All the teams have one
A center field camera
Astros sole users

Bench coach has a scheme
A relay man to watch a screen

If you could have massaged that into haiku format, I would declare you the winner right now.

Five whistling bench guys,
Seven banging garbage cans,
Five butthurt Yankees.

It's even meta-descriptive, which I'm pretty sure was Homer's point in the first place.
