Jim Behrle tweets at @behrle for your possible amusement.










Jim Behrle, you're smart
and funny but you sure do
suck at picking teams.
Please note I assumed that your surname requires two syllables.
The sociolinguist in me loves the Pittsburgh haiku. (As a Wisconsinite, however, I am baffled by your anti-Green Bay bias.)
@Sunny Schomaker Agreed. but any proper burgher will tell you it's "yinz." Like zubaz.
@Sunny Schomaker I know! To reject Green Bay is one problem, to like Denver is another entirely.
These still don't rhyme.
It ain't a haiku until someone's branded a fatass.
Glad to know it's not just the entire female population of New England who hates Gisele.
