*The Limerick Book*

The third championship

I loved a man named Larry Bird
The fabled garden was where it occured
In '86 the Lakers he faced
their dreams of winning he erased
that was the year he won his third.

These people call this Limerick a favorite:

2.5??? that is lame. Larry Bird is the greatest ever, referencing the Lakers in '86 and you give a 2.5. I am so being blackballed and tared and feathered.

You gave me a 2.5, and my limerick was better than yours. I was being generous!

i gave a reason for the 2.5! not some Bahston thing.

It was a stupid reason. Not being able to dunk doesn't mean you can't participate in an alley-oop. I'm the "oop."

I now have the top rated entry. Thanks, guys! Good limerick but I'm not a fan of Larry. Sorry.
