The FIRST Annual Official Sherdog HAIKU contest?

[TempleoftheDog]

I was smoking a doobie after moving into my new digs. And I was thinking.

Haiku threads usually get a LOT of play in here.

Maybe have a contest? Like the contests for shoops? Submit your Haiku. And just let the people decide. Because I know it might be really hard with the huge amount of entries, I expect. But limit it to only one entry per person? That still might be a really big number compared to shoop contests. But just have pre-lims if there are that many entries. Heats of 20 or 30 (drawn randomly) Top 3 move on?

I’d put up $20 on a gift card. If people like the idea, I think we could raise a decent prize for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd.

Just something that came to me while I was composing a Haiku earlier. And it was not a great haiku.. lol. I’d be gone first round.

Decent idea..

Or

Rubbish?

Had to google what a haiku was. Fun. There's been threads on this?

I might actually borrow a book from the library with haiku poems. I've been trying to get into reading poems before but it's too dense for me and I don't understand what the fuck they are saying, but a three lined poem might work.

I penned this one after the infamous randy couture video:

Former champion
Randy coutures first name is
so appropriate

Nice.

Not a Haiku, though. 5 syllables. Then 7 syllables. Then 5 again.

Yours is 6, 7, and 7.

If this thing catches on I will donate a $1-2 to your gift card too. If 50-100 users all chip in the potential prize might make people put in more effort than improper format khamzat or Dana hating rhymes

Check my posts from yesterday. My shitty haiku is in there somewhere.

I’m stuck thinking about Tommy Lee from Motley Crue. It was the last video I watched before crashing some 4 hours ago. Like when a tune gets stuck in your head. You can’t ditch it. I have to return the U-Haul. So probably by the time I come back on line later. My mind will be clear.

Heavy, but I like it.

Khabib, is that you?
