I regret to announce that the Run of Play Holiday Poem has been canceled this year, due to complex travel arrangements and a complete lack of acceptable rhymes for "major kidney stone surgery". If you find yourself enraged or despairing over this news, why not consider a tall glass of eggnog?

Eggnog…because nothing takes away the pain of not getting to read a satirical holiday-themed soccer poem that you were led to believe would be forthcoming quite like a frosty glass of eggnog.
We'll be back in a few days with our usual slate of dedicated Ligue 1 coverage and wall-to-wall Victoria Beckham photospreads. Until then, have a happy holiday, and don't put off your history paper until the last minute, this economy is terrible, and you're barely getting by as it is.



Might I suggest "Like a Liverpool burglary/ or major kidney stone surgery, Benitez and co. dealt with many things squirelly?"
I'll get me coat…
The burglary reference is brilliant, but I still can't shake the feeling that "stone" needs to rhyme with "You'll Never Walk Alone" at some point.
When Brian postpones
His audience moans.
But think of the groans
If bad Vinnie Jones
Grabbed those kind of stones.
It's a philosophy paper, and I'll put it off as long as I damn well please.
Happy holidays, and thanks for providing me with such a fantastic procrastination tool. The paper will not be done until ALL archival posts have been read.
