Merry GRIZmas to All!!!
Posted: Wed Dec 17, 2008 9:21 am
Twas the week before playoffs, and all through the state,
Griz Nation was ready, we knew it’d be great!
First up Texas State and Griz fans would not worry.
31 to 13, skinned dem Cats in a hurry.
With a smug attitude the Wildcats came flaunting
Our seismic North End Zone their players were taunting.
But once was enough and redemption at hand
Weber got spanked now ain’t vengeance grand
Of the Dukes they all said “They’re the best in the land,”
Redemption round two, just as we planned.
Special Teams were excited, showing grit and some gristle
Our defense ignited and launched the Butte missile.
A pick and a swat from a corner named Swink
On 4th down and 20 Duke’s hopes he did sink.
Bring on the Spiders, the Grizzlies don’t care
We’ve got Chase Reynolds who runs like a wild-hare
Mariani , Ferriter, Pfaler and Beaudin
Our feared air attack will soon be explodin’!
Now on-Quinn, now on-Horn, and don’t forget Dow
On Hillesland, on Dyk, bring it O-line---Kapow!
When all are covered with a juke and twist
He carries the rock our mighty Cole Bergquist.
Too many great players to name in a poem
But at Finley Stadium all Grizzlies will roam.
Under Friday night lights our fans have a wish
The Grizzlies will find some Spiders to squish
We’re ready and willing and can’t hardly wait
The players, the coaches, this game could be fate.
You’ve practiced, you’ve sweated, you’ve worked the whole season
The Championship Game is the one single reason.
So Santa is here to offer a toast
To the Montana Grizzlies, the team we love most.
To all of our coaches in this season of light
Merry Grizmas to all and to all a good Brody McKnight!
