DEFLATE-GATE WAS AN INSIDE JOB*

DEFLATE-GATE WAS AN INSIDE JOB*
by matt burns

Deflate-gate was an inside job*

Multiple Superbowl wins
Broken records
Greatest quarterback ever
Most popularity ever
Things have plateaued
Where to go from here?

Deflate-gate was an inside job*

'Til now, it's mostly been a man's sport
Women like the drama
So write them some drama
A scandal
A soap opera
Starring a dreamy hunk
Tom Brady

Deflate-gate was an inside job*

The court battles go on
And on
No resolution
'Wells' reports
Rulings
Appeals

Deflate-gate was an inside job*

And just in the nick of time
Right before the opener
Hooray
Suspension lifted
Tom Brady is exonerated
David beats Goliath
A giant victory for Patriots nation

Deflate-gate was an inside job*

The new season has a new story hook
Prove those haters wrong
Prove those deflated balls had
Nothing
To do with the wins
That's the story
That's the drama
Entertaining for the
Biggest
General
Audience 
EVER

Deflate-gate was an inside job*

*I have no hard evidence to substantiate such claims but I'm going to use Wells report lingo and say "it's more than probable".

DRAMA HAS BECOME THE NORM

Here is a poem meant to provoke some thought about today's relationships and why there may be so much drama in these relationships. I may not have articulated myself that well in the poem, but check it out if you like...

DRAMA HAS BECOME THE NORM

by matt burns

It’s strange to look at older people

And their relationships

And there’s usually NO

Or very little

Drama

Like my parents, for example:

Their relationship is pretty tame

Laid back

I’m amazed

But then I look at relationships

From the younger generations

And see 

LOTS 

Of

Drama

What’s the difference?

Maybe it’s REALITY TV

Over the past fifteen years

Reality TV has created a new norm in life

DRAMA

Because without drama

Reality TV has no entertainment value

But the overall message becomes:

Reality is about DRAMA

Drama is reality

Constant drama is reality

Creating drama out of every little thing is normal

Because people watch Reality TV

And they emulate what they see

And they say THAT’S what reality’s supposed to be like

My reality is supposed to have drama!

So these young couples come together

And their relationship becomes a Reality TV series

At least in their heads

And every little thing gets blown out of proportion

You didn’t hold the door for me

Cut to interview in front of green screen

“So Steve didn’t hold the door for me yesterday and I’m FUMED!”

Reality TV

Has made drama the basis of life

But needless drama is not necessarily life

It’s just entertainment

Meant to draw viewers

And boost ratings

The drama demon has wriggled its way into our realities

And if things keep going this way

Needless drama will overshadow everything important

And we will all be distracted by the drama

Our attention drawn away from what really matters

Drama has become the norm
