You may know a lot about your favourite game <br />And from your commentaries and writings on it you know of wealth and fame <br />But there's more to life than talking of and writing of football <br />And about other things you seem to know little at all <br />By the followers of football your type are well known <br />And they look up to you as one in a class of your own <br />They well may be happy your praises to sing <br />For football to them is an important thing <br />But by other than me it has been said before <br />That football is just a game that and little more <br />For many from life's cares a brief getaway <br />To cheer on their team in the game of the day <br />And you football writer and commentator and sporting celebrity <br />You may seem enlightened to many but not so to me.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/you-may-know-a-lot-about-your-favourite-game/
