Ladies and Gentlemen, submit your Barry Bonds limerick to the SF Chronicle and win $50 CASH MONEY!

A quick scan through the entries already online shows some slim pickin’s. Common offense are (1) a lack of creativity and (2) ignorance of the limerick form:

Cincy is red,
Dodgers are blue,
Intentional walks mean
“We know what you do”.

and

Barry Barry Barry Barry Barry
Barry Barry Barry Barry Barry
Barry Barry Barry
Barry Barry Barry
Barry Barry Barry Bonds (and The Giants)

My early favorite:

Barry Bonds was a slugger to fear
Having a sure Hall of Fame career
Said the announcer one day,
’bout a Bonds’ blast in the bay,
“Man he ‘cream’-ed it ‘clear’ out of here!”
