Ever write a haiku? Give it a try -- haiku is a Japanese verse form consisting of three lines of 5, 7, and 5 syllables.

Here's an example:

Eyes dart back and forth
Chest hits, arms grab, runner falls
Tedy rules the field

A panel of judges will scream out the haikus in our best Howard Dean voices, and pick the one we like best. The winner will get a nice cheesy prize from our Marketing Dept.

violent hurricane reigns
Bruschi is the eye

The piercing penetrating Bruschi stare
It's what every NFL quarterback will fear
producing the ultimate sack and tear

Budweiser is great
Coors Light too, but nothing beats
an ice-cold Bruschi

I am a big back,
In the hole, I met Tedy,
I fall down, lights out

cool, crisp, hard-hitting
nothing light about bruschi
Grab me another

Reading passer's mind
Bruschi jumps, grasps, intercepts
Thoughts turn to touchdown

Stealing ladies Hearts & Offenses' Thunder.

On the battle field,
