So are you sold on this sports experiment that’s under way?
We now have a choice of sports that we can watch everyday
So far hockey and basketball are looking good under their bubbles
However, major league baseball is having their share of troubles
Players on the Cardinals and the Marlins have tested positive and the season is in doubt
That’s two strikes against them: one more team and they’re out?
The CFL has chosen Winnipeg as its hub city, should it return in the fall
Chances are Canadian Football will not have a season at all
The NFL is a whole other case
Their players are testing positive all over the place
Lots of these athletes are bowing out for this reason
Who knows how many stars will play if they do start the season?
All the NHL players are safe and there are no cases to report
I hope this trend will continue and the season doesn’t fall short
I like the format they are using to get into the playoff run
If they would have left things as they were, my team would have been done
My Blackhawks would have been out of it , they finished in twelfth place
Now they get to play a best out of five to enter the playoff race
Their last appearance in the playoffs, they lost in four straight
They’ve won their first game, which really is great
Are they in a position to topple the Edmonton Oilers?
Now this is just the first game, are they going to be spoilers?
With Connor McDavid as the Captain, this team is never out of the game
It’s nice to know the Hawks have won one, just the same
This means at least in this series they will not be shut out
The fact that they are competitive is what it’s all about
There is so much hockey to be played before they call it a year
Here’s hoping that every player continues to play and is able to stay in the clear
Every major sports organization will have their share of wins and defeats
When it comes to reality, it’s the Covid-19 Virus that we all have to beat
