Twas the day after New Year’s and all through the Smith Family Pickem
Was a graceful Unicorn and Ain’t nothin saying (in a deep gravely voice), “Lick’em!”
The pickers had had their feats of strength with a lonely pole during Festivus –
But be sure, it isn’t over until the unicorn is captured by Smurf and the rest of us.
One thing that had made all pickem pickers smirk with schadenfreude glee
Was the fact that our team had whooped that team that’s always high and mighty.
They didn’t even look like the wanted to be there, those leprechauns in green,
After the pachyderms rolled in and the scoring process became routine.
The Beach girl was glorious; Bamanators’ litigating rang true.
Scooba Tech had picked correctly, uniquely, against Clempson and Dabo’s creamsicle zoo.
Honorary Baldwinan was right in the middle of all the players
As was that perennially pedestrian pickem picker, The Benevolent Dictator.
The Screen Queen’s score was the same as her Mumsy.
The “eights” were close and weren’t no dummies!
But now to the sevens, six, fours and three.
Mountain Mama was at the head and now at the knee.
Lindor Lover and theoliviayoung, too, the former with chocolate smeared and slathered,
Were slightly ahead of LizyBelle, ChickenDinner, and The Gaffer.
Finally, lastly, way down, way down, way down at the bottom,
Was Aquamarine, alone, lonely and almost forgotten.
That sums up the standings through the CFP Round One,
But don’t look away, oh no! Don’t do that, we’re not done!
There are MORE games to be played; and play them we shall!
7 games remain and 9 days to play’em and increase morale!
So, stay tuned. Keep checking your pickem scores.
Today has more games; in fact, four more!
So somebody, anybody, please pull out in front,
For Rainbows and unicorns is STILL leading the hunt!
