Phillies Haikus

Poetic reflections on another Philadelphia Phillies playoff run

"Why can't us?"

This article from today's Philly papers explains how a sports radio caller misspoke beautifully, asking, rhetorically, about the Phillies' playoff hopes: "Why can't us?" Sounds like fodder for a haiku, to me.

Other towns have won.
They've made a gigantic fuss.
Phils fans, why can't us?
