I remember hearing from my buddy, Nick:
“Both these guys well worth first-round pick;
One hits dingers, one threes,
Both will be M.V.P.s;
Pick both Buster and Steph Curry quick.”

Nuclear Family
The Village Elliott: 5/15
When Steph’s daughter made MVP blink,
I Said “Curry and daughter in sync,
Think: Caroline’s new shoes
Upstaged Daddy and news
While world teetered on Nuclear Brink.”
Family Men
The Village Elliott: 5/14
Stephen Curry, of Warriors Clan,
Has been shown to be “Family Man,”
Not the first one, my son,
In Nineteen Eighty-One,
By another, re-hooked as a fan.
One year since met teen friend, Stinson Beach,
Showed me Local Ropes, Baseball I’d teach,
Weekly went to a game,
Giants, A’s both the same,
Season ends, “Wait till next year!” I’d preach.
Friend said,”Let’s go to Warriors game,”
I quipped, “Basketball isn’t the same
Since Bob Pettit’s a Hawk,”
He said, “Who?” then called, “Balk!
Come on, it’s half-price night; Don’t be lame.”
Double-Overtime Rebound Machine:
New/Still Fav Warrior, post-game seen
With Fam’ly at Denny’s
Gets standing “O” when he’s
“Daddy” Larry Smith, not “Mr. Mean.”
