Effen

A name so brilliant, Heineken would be proud
A drink so smooth, you'll never notice you're plowed.

Flavors, not varied, but two done right
Choosing between them is sometimes a plight.

Slowly but surely distributed coast to coast
To drink, no longer requires a trip to the Post.

Besides being tasty, it's a fun name to say
Way better than ordering a goose that is grey.

My drink of choice used to be tonic and gin
But that's been replaced by anything with Effen.

Season Over

Holy Toledo
Wake me when it's time for hoops
What? We suck at that?

Twenty-four and oh
Ruined because of K.C.
Can this year get worse?

NLCS

Twenty-five to one
The odds to start the season
Now six wins away

ALCS

Three hundred to one
Tampa was an after-thought
Could make bettors rich.
