USA vs. Mars 2016 Rio Olympics


Soccer


As expected, Mars failed to arrive on time for the games

Space travel is difficult, compromised for non existent beings

Speculations run high that the media would not favor the USA

News reporters speak on Martian matters and on their behalf

Always have their way in such arenas with no figures

It was zero zero at half time

No one expected more

The end triggered overtime

Zero zero continued into eternity

As expected, the fans love good competition

Everyone knows in their heart

Earth is better than Mars

We have people for starters

We wonder what will happen in time

The Winter Olympics are right around the corner

Who knows how far Mars will go to score

Will they do any better on the toboggan or the luge

The news reporters favor the USA as usual

Or is it Mars

We see a bunch of zeroes in their future

No matter who they are
