The Armchair Quarterback Volume 50: Eulogy to Super Bowl LIV

Into Miami they rode heads held high
Shouting, screaming, doing the battle cry
All-white tunics waited for them upon arrival
But as they found out, those were also left for the rival
In their all-white outfits, they roamed about South Beach
As each of them were interviewed and gave a short speech
They deserved to be there as they had knocked off the savages from Wisconsin
And the People’s Tight End got to meet his hero Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson
As the game began, all the side stories ended
It was time to play football and it would be splendid
They kept it close all the way to the half
Tied at 10-10 it was not a matter to laugh
The third quarter came, and they took the lead
They negated their opponents’ wit and negated their speed
But the fourth quarter arrived, it took them by storm
The opposing quarterbacks arm started to get warm
It started with one touchdown, then two, and sadly three
How did the sweet taste of victory cease to ever be?
A 10-point lead seemed a thing of the past
Now an 11-point loss was in full mast
The game shocked the players, coaches, and fans sitting on their recliners
If you haven’t figured out by now, I’m speaking about the San Francisco 49ers
But now is not the time to mope, be frustrated, or sad
A new season is on its way and it’s the 49ers to be had
“I will be back here” is not a clue or a riddle
They were words of affirmation from tight end George Kittle
Fans get ready because the 2020 season starts today
And soon enough the Lombardi trophy will be brought back to the Bay
