Encore une fois

A hog and a frog cavort in this blog,
But not the Spartan coach.

Big B, little b, what begins with B?
Basketball baby, but not Dicky V.

There was a team named Fordham
That had a coach named Digger
He moved to Notre Dame
And his reputation got bigger.

He broke the UCLA streak
And went to the Final Four
With Tripucka, Laimbeer, and Woolrich
His reputation was galore.

But then he couldn't keep up
His reputation did fall
Accusing the Illini of foul play on Laphonso Ellis
Was his only way to play ball.

Now he has a long history as commentator
On ESPN College BBall
Bearing a grudge from long ago
So he picked the Illini to fall.

But homecourt advantage really doesn't mean much
The refs call the game just the same
You can't win even with an emotional crowd
If the play of the home team is lame.

So Digger now plays the role of baffoon
Along with his friend Dickie V
Teaching us all the hard learned lesson
If you can't coach, don't commentate on TV.
