That lyric is legend. I doff my hat.
I’m currently on my 13th Tully’s Tender so I should probably schedule a funeral for my bathroom tomorrow morning.When you people update a bathroom and re shingle your roof, do you give your house a funeral too?
THE DOME IS DEAD!
LONG LIVE THE DOME!
Bye bye, old Dome, bye bye!
Anyone else want to try their hand? Limericks, haiku, song lyrics? We are a very creative bunch!
I'm not sure, being I haven't written a Haiku or any fixed meter stuff in a very long time... like I mentioned to Triple B, I always found parodies a path of lesser resitance. Either way, I wanted to tip my cap not only for trying to follow something so epic, but also for being the first dissenter on here! (I'm being sincere with all I plan to say in here, and felt the need to put that disclaimer...being I don't know how some take my posts when I am wound up).Great atmosphere when the fans turn out,
big mausoleum when they don't.
Is that how it's done?
You're certainly no Everly Brother.
It's just getting a new haircut.
At least there won’t be another John Thompson type of moment. That STILL gives me irrational feelings of hate.
Tremendous. No one should even attempt to top that. Nothing like sibling harmony.
Wait!!! Don't tell me the pee troughs are going.
Regardless of the size, an empty arena with low fan turnout is a cavern. When it happens here our attendance is only a dream for most programs.

Was going to say the same thing. Not a huge fan of Williams but glad to see he had more class than JT1At least there won’t be another John Thompson type of moment. That STILL gives me irrational feelings of hate.
Also--Roy knows he'll be visiting the new and improved Dome next season. No sense fooling with karma.Was going to say the same thing. Not a huge fan of Williams but glad to see he had more class than JT1
Oh there’s hummus.Where the a.c.'s overdue, and some hummus, too
When it's done it will be more like a gut than an update. This isn't new fabric. It's a removal and reconstruction with hundreds of tons of steel. Interior will undergo massive changes as well. Stay tuned.When you people update a bathroom and re shingle your roof, do you give your house a funeral too?
Oh there’s hummus.
it’s not your fault, you didn’t know.
That is beautiful!The Dome on the hill,
Shining bright like a Pearl.
Who gave you Life.
Masterful! Cleverness in every line. I especially like the last stanza above. “Where the a.c’s overdue,” Lord, that‘s true!Sweet Dome Onondaga continued-
In Binghamton they love the Recycler boo hoo hoo
Yeah, brings bored rappers to S.U.

Does Tom Brady bother you?

Everything you said is true and I feel the same way - but let's remember this set off one of the few super intense rivalries that isn't geographically based.At least there won’t be another John Thompson type of moment. That STILL gives me irrational feelings of hate.

Okay, now I have a question. What is the top of the Dome going to look like? At the game on Sunday some people were saying it was going to be clear. I didn’t think so.
I believe this is an old, obsolete and very badly done illustration.The roof apparently will be soft, though supported permanently instead of with forced air, with some of the material being a little more translucent to let in more natural light. They cut back on that idea, somewhat, because they don't want Sidibe suddenly being blinded doing a jump ball, like a Yankee outfielder searching for a fly ball at the wrong time of day. They will also use some LED lights to control dimness.
Don't know if they've altered this idea since... Copyright Syracuse.comView attachment 177458
