We used to praise you as our heroes
On the fields and on the courts...
We cheered you on so feverishly
In the world of professional sports...
We were proud to wear your jerseys
And memorized all your stats...
We were fiercely proud of you
We even called ourselves the Who Dats...
And then one day you decided
To dishonor our American Flag...
You knelt during our American Anthem...
Discarded us like a doggy poo bag...
So now when Benson’s teams
Kneel to lace up your cleats...
We will forever refer to you
As nothing more than AssLetes...
You are no longer our heroes...
You are no longer athletes...
You ruined it all with your politics...
You are nothing more than AssLetes...
