SIAV SIOBBERS

(Russ Metre.)
Russia has no pennant hopes
Her teams all shot to thunder,
All her men must have the mOpes,
They're down and out and under.
A flag means nothing to a SIav,
He cares not for a batting ave.
He does not oere to be on top
When he can do n new flip-flOp.
Second Revolution.
The only sport the VoOvitches love
Is throwing salt at a shy peace dove,
Chucking a game in the ninth frame
To them is no disgrace or shame.
