Game On Poem by anais vionet

Place your bets, you're just in time
for the game, the fix is in.

What a thrill. Is it a crime to cash in?
The winners do, and that could be you.

You'll be a witness, as wise guys smoothly step in
- it's basic greed - and never a sin, as long as they win.

Mr slick ricky, you've got to be bold to win gold -
winners never just fold - betting never gets old.

The winners will add your few spare bucks to their pot -
let's admit, all that you've got - isn't a lot - it won't fuel a yacht.

Place your bets, you're in the front row all the time,
don't be lame, be part of the game, the greasy bigtime.

Note: I love NFL football, but now every commercial is for some sports book like "Draft Kings." How can the NFL, increasingly in league with gambling books, not end up mobbed-up and fixed?
It's ruining NFL football - the illusion that it's a real sporting competition. I'll tell you, Once they start calling the NFL "entertainment" and not sports - it's over - the game I once loved will be just like pro wrestling.
