THOU canst express the constraint frivolity
discovered upon Trio's aforeday fame
pop, culture, television, nee virility
Scott Baio be thy name

Wherefore canst competition abound
between the ilk of Larry Wilcox CHiPs forays
vying in arms opposed on ground
to Cathy Lee Crosby regarding Simon Says

Howard Cosell with integrity lost
complementing Randi Oakes for her course
filled with obstacles yet not toss'd
claiming a title with no remorse.

Robert Hays at odds with Chad Evrett
Greg Harrison truly be Trapper John, MD
he alone conquers the tall wall of threat
off'ring CBS 25 essential marks t'ward v'ctory

Linda Carter, a Wonder Woman's weighty anchor
in the medly relay swim race warfare
Charlene Tilton filled with Dallasian Ewingish rancor
mayhaps unaware their suits be threadbare

Network braggadocia the vyers' true laurel
more important than renewal this title behold
back in the day when flag football was moral
and cable TVs reign hadnot yet unfold

This day long passed, our tears doth descend
satisfied instead by the marks of sweeps
Battle of the Networks stars forever portend
without such Grant Goodeve still weeps
