Remember the Alamo & the FSU Tournament Train

Well, our madness continues
To the surprise of the pros.
And just where it ends
No one possibly knows.

Tip off comes tonight
At just before ten
So get your tribe together
And bring your best zen.

Now only the best remain
So we had best not relax
Tonight it’s the VCU Rams
To match wits with coach Ham.

They should know better by now
But the brackets just do not allow
The unlucky to choose their own fate.
Though we all know what horror awaits.

Many VCU fans will congregate and commiserate
As they watch their poor Rams slowly asphyxiate.
Under the tireless and suffocating Seminole “D”
And the flaming long 3s of Miller & DD.

Bernard James & T. Shannon will dominate the lane
While Chris Singleton & D. Kitchen drive our brave train
Right through the Commonwealth Rams and into the Hawks.
And though KU may be mighty, it’s birds of prey we do stalk.

“Remember” it was just 175 years past
that in this very town
Where a different March Madness
was about to go down.

May no one ‘er forget Travis, Bowie and Crockett
And that long brave line drawn by sword in the sand
Though the odds they were impossibly hopeless
For liberty, those heroes made their gallant last stand.

Were we not all Texans on that fateful March day?
And did not General Sam Houston cause them to pay?
So keep this tourney train rolling, we have a great chance
To drive right into Houston and to dance the last dance!
