Poem 3:  Sports Channels

Has anyone tried to get the NHL package on their tv?                                    It can be quite an adventure if you were to ask me                                      In order to watch my team whenever I wanted.                                   Buying a package online worked for me, that’s why I got it

I purchased from Rogers and everything works great That’s because my team plays hockey  in the United States You get to choose your team’s broadcast whether they are
home or away You don’t need to record anything, it’s there to stay

You can watch it live or decide to watch it much later Honestly it couldn’t get that much greater You can archive games as far as two years back if that’s what you want to do Can relive your teams triumphs, they are all there for you

Now I am the exception because I’m in Ontario and not in the States If you live near your home team, things just aren’t that
great First of all you have to pay for all the sports channels
they offer to you There is no real choice, if you want to watch your team, that’s what you must do

So you have every channel in sports from coast to coast As far as sports goes, you pay the most Hey now I can watch every game our Canadian teams play! That’s when your blackout broadcasts start to get in the way

You only get to view the game they telecast in your own region The ban will be lifted when you get to the start of the playoff season I am not able to watch the games in my area for 48 hours after the game But I am still able to watch the others on the coasts just the same

You can buy the nhl package from your cable company if that’s what you choose Still you need all the sports channels, the cable company can never lose Two hundred dollars more if you want all the bells and the whistles you crave They covered all of the angles on you, there’s no way you can save

So you pay out the cash and some of us will still come up short We all need our hockey, it’s Canada’s national sport! So why do they have us jumping through hoops to watch our
favourite game? They keep sticking it to us, it’s such a shame

You would think with these new regulations they would throw us some bones Get all our hockey and the hell with these zones Imagine sitting back to watch your favourite team on the ice Throw in the minor league games as well, wouldn’t that be
nice?

This way you can follow the players from junior to when they debut in the big show And being able to stream these games wherever you go You know it’s a pipe dream, their deck is stacked It never will happen, it’s just a fact

Here’s hoping that an online iptv service will come along and fill all our wishes This way we cancel the cable and toss out the satellite dishes Stick it to your provider and tell them they can all go to hell Oh shit! They still got us, they own the internet as well!

Poem 2: Guess Who

Second entry of the blog, not sure if it will be daily or not.                         I’m just going to continue whether I have a little or a lot.                      There are so many subjects that are out there for me to muse.             Most of them are relevant but what do I choose?

Now there is a man out there that has made it hard for us to
ignore.                                                                                                                  Believe me I’ve tried it, it is quite a chore.                                                        His face a bright orange and his comb back a mess.                                  We all seem to know him it’s not hard to guess

So if anyone is still stumped with the answer to my game.                      Just to let you know Donald Trump is his name                                                I can’t help it, I mean he’s the topic wherever you go                                   He never aims high, it’s always seems to be low

He sits in a party that has no control of him at all.                                        All he is concerned with is building his wall                                                   He has been in the Oval office for what seems to be so long                      His claim to fame is not what he’s done right, but what he’s
done wrong

I don’t want to bring up everything he’s brought up in the past Hopefully this term will be not only his first but ultimately
his last                                                                                                                            I will start with something amusing that happened this week.                 He said “oranges” instead of “origin” when he tried to speak

He is threatening to close the southern border in a show of strength    Not just a few crossings but the whole entire length                                   He thinks this will hurt the Mexicans and force them to cave                  But consequences in America would be more grave

He’s lied to his country so many times it’s just another day        Everything he says has to be fact checked anyway                                          He said his father was born in Germany for some reason.                        He wants to charge all the democrats with acts of treason

He wants to cut funding to Special Olympics which seems quite extreme.                                                                                                                       I never got that mad when I didn’t make a team                                              I apologize to you, maybe in the midwest he’s a sensation                       But he would be a great hindrance to this fine organization

His Attorney General says the Mueller report shows he is in the clear Why does he want to stop it if he has nothing to fear?                   Oversight Committee is requesting his taxes, let’s see what
they find                                                                                                                  Just when the Trump White House thought it was time to unwind

So many investigations against Trump to explore.                                    And who really knows, there could be some more                                      His administration is in chaos we all can agree                                          Can he dodge all these bullets? Just wait and see.

Poem 1: Introduction

I’ve started this blog to share my points of view                                            Of anything that is topical and things I like to do                                             I may bring up the past or what happened the day before                   There is a wide variety of subjects that I may choose to explore

Things that are of interest to me and share with you in time                  The hardest part for me is to present them in rhyme                               Now it could involve politics or sports or anything at all                       From who makes the NHL playoffs of if Trump will build his wall

I will talk about anything that seems to peak my thoughts                   Right now I am so nervous that my stomach is all in knots                         So hopefully I can focus on this and keep calm and steady                    Well look at me I nearly have my first blog done already!

I’m not sure how proficient I will be or if my thoughts are thorough Hopefully I will have enough subject matter to put one out tomorrow  So please bear with me while I try to iron all these wrinkles out.       Don’t know how long it will be or what it will be about

Looking at my first page I can see that I have so much to learn           Right now just launching this will be by first concern                                 So in time I’ll try to polish the appearance of this page                             And hopefully we will find some laughs and topics to engage

So now I think I press the publish button to put it on display            Making it official that my blog is done and headed on its way
