BATSMEN WEAR A PROTECTIVE BOX

 

Batsmen wear a protective box

In order to ensure

That the bowler cannot

Rearrange his furniture

THE FIRST TESTICULAR PROTECTION

 

The first testicular protection

Known as a "box" was introduced

In 1874

Whereas the first cranial protection

Known as a “helmet” was introduced

In 1974

So it only took a hundred years

For Cricketers to figure out the score

That balls shouldn’t be more

Important than brains anymore

AT THIS YEAR’S INSECT SUPER BOWL

 

At this year’s insect Super Bowl

The quarterback played dismally

Rimsky-Korsakov dropped the ball

It was the plight of the fumble Bee

AS A MULTI SPORTS CLUB GRASSHOPPER

 

As a multi sports club Grasshopper

Club Zürich are just the ticket

They play a large number of sports

Though funnily enough Not Cricket

And I completely agree,

That “The older we get

An affair between a Sportscaster

And my wife was my suspicion

And when I found them, they were

In the commentary position

The man’s face was crimson red

And heavily pockmarked too

Like he recently been on fire

And put out with a Golf shoe

WHAT IS YOUR EXCERSISE REGIME?

“What is your exercise regime?”

I was asked by my new personal trainer

I said if I already had a regime

I wouldn’t need a personal trainer

MY DOG ATE ALL THE SCRABBLE TILES

 

My dog ate all the Scrabble tiles

When they were spilt on the mat

And for days he kept leaving

Little messages around the flat

COMMENTATING ON EQUESTRIAN # 2

 

At his first equestrian event

And he thought he was seeing a mirage

All the horses looked effeminate

But it turned out to be the dressage

COMMENTATING ON EQUESTRIAN # 1

At his first equestrian event

And he thought he was seeing a mirage

The campest parade ring he’d ever seen

Turned out to be the dressage
