    If Da Bears loose, they cant blame 'ole Rexy for it. The pass defense is taking a nap in the second half

    Bucs still suck.

    LOL, The Bears defense should be ashamed of themselves. I hope the Yucs beat them.

    the NFC sucks...during any given week any of these teams can look like crap. If San Diego can't take advantage of these bad teams, then
    they should hang it up. NFC is WEAK this year

    Yea the NFC sure appreciates the Sucs playing down to their level all year. Whew they're sure happy the Gay Pirates took it easy on them.

    The reward? A high draft pick. At least they'll make up for the three they gave away for Gruden, the coach with something like a 38-42 record after this season. He couldn't even put together back to back winning seasons, which has happened only once in Sucs history. Dungy of course.

    Will the Tampa mayor declare Monday "Tim Rattay Day" as they did for Matt Bryant? How about "Hooray We Scored Our First TD Since Thanksgiving Day?"

    Save it for next year.

    I think I recall the very BEST AFC team, in all football probably, at the time, was beaten by a mediocre NFC team.

    Cowboys and Romo beat the Colts and Manning.

    I am sure there is a good explanation for this, as well as anything some people wish to prove or dispute.

    SoFla...Nice of you to show up during a win week. You were MIA when the Bucs took your team to the shed, and crying in your soup
    with McNad went down....NOOOOOO, NOOOOO, its all over, I hate you Andy Re......

    You are pathetic. Gruden has a ring and Andy Reid has size 56 pants. You all needed Rocky to show up to the opening of your
    stadium, and then laid a goose egg! Dungy has no rings, a crappy defense, and a QB who gets scared in the playoffs. I wouldn't
    trade that for the 03' run.

    You all know you can't beat the Hawks at their place, you might as well lay down and prepare for Reid's eating binge!

    Has Gruden announced yet what college teams he's going to apply at for an offensive coordinater position?
  • joestalinjoestalin Posts: 12,473 ✭✭
    Steve..lets review:

    Phillies...so close yet so far
    Sixers...trade away thier best player and get nothing for him
    Flyers...suck suck suck
    Eagles....waiting to get punked by TO next week and then to limp into the playoffs only to lose to a crappy Seattle team. The next
    day shares of Krispy Kreame go through the roof.

    It don't look too good this year! At least Rocky willl win (well Im just guessing on that one)

    << <i>If Da Bears loose, they cant blame 'ole Rexy for it. The pass defense is taking a nap in the second half >>

    With Tommie Harris and Tank Johnson out on the D-line, and Mike Brown and Nathan Vasher out in the secondary...


    they sure do suck. The NFC is weak, but the Bucs actually showed some life.

    I think the Bears will lose their first game in the play-offs, again. But their 12-2 so maybe they'll figure out a way to win like they did today.
    EAMUS CATULI!

    Wrong again Joe Stinkin'.

    Do a search. Took a holiday and couldn't post. Also stayed out when your West Coast buddy came back from exile.

    Fact - Reid will have a job next year in Philly. Gruden? Signs point to no.

    What school will Gruden coach? You'll love this one.

    Temple.

    Calm yourself. Sit down. Grab the kleenex and and watch your historic 02 DVD. That's the only bit of satisfaction you'll have with this team for a while.
  • joestalinjoestalin Posts: 12,473 ✭✭
    you see thats the difference, Philly is ok with having a coach that only gets to the playoffs and then folds like a tent. Bucs need
    a super bowl coach...and we have it!

    Who would anyone rather have as a head coach.....Smart, respected, a leader in Andy Reid, or Jonboy Gruden? The choice is obvious. Case closed.

    : eye roll :

    Sure do talk a lot of smack about hometown teams.

    How are your hometown teams performing, JS?

    well the only teams I follow are the bucs and phillies. The bucs have put together two nice season in the past 5 years....with one
    super bowl victory. The Phillies suck, but I think can contend this year. I don't follow thugketball nor hockey.

  • stownstown Posts: 11,321 ✭✭✭
    Perhaps I should have worded by question better.

    What teams are from your hometown, JS?

    Thanks in advance image

    You love history so much. Here's a lesson for ya from this weekend's Tampa Tribune. Guess you didn't see it since you live nowhere near Tampa.

    It Smells Like Bucs Are Chasing History

    By MARTIN FENNELLY

    Published: Dec 17, 2006

    CHICAGO - "Do you really have to go?"

    It's a question I've been asked several times this week.

    It's a question Captain Field Goal himself, Jon Gruden, and his players probably have asked themselves.

    But here we all are in the Windy City for the Bucs-Bears game, 3-10 meets 11-2, or, as one Bucs fan at baggage claim referred to it, "the big beat-down."

    But that's no way to look at this season.

    The Incredible Unwatchable Bucs and The Increasingly Desperate Coach have actually hit their stride.

    They're chasing history.

    And they're gaining.

    Watch. By all means, watch.
    Think It's Easy Being Awful?

    You see, you've been looking at it the wrong way, Bucs fans.

    What's going on this season might be as audacious an accomplishment as winning the Super Bowl.

    Because there's no bad history like Bucs bad history.

    It's a history so rich in badness that it's romantic. It's the history of 0-14 and 0-26. It's history with NFL Follies written all over it. It's creamsicle history.

    Trying to reach that kind of badness isn't easy.

    Give these Bucs credit.

    Last week was a "hump" game.

    A win against Atlanta would have killed the Bucs' chance to be considered among the worst.

    But they got past the Falcons. Now they're in full flying-coffin mode. They should be able to knock off these last three losses.

    3-13 just sounds right.

    3-13 is almost lyrical.

    3-13 isn't lousy. It's performance art.

    By the way, we'd like to update you on Gruden's search for a quarterback. As you know, after the Atlanta game, he announced a nationwide hunt for a "superstar" quarterback.

    Well, they almost caught one on Thursday.

    Gruden and GM Bruce "My father was George" Allen narrowed the search to northern Montana. They had this one quarterback trapped. The helicopter lights caught him in their glare, and the dogs were right on his tail. But he got away. He might have crossed into Canada.

    The search goes on.

    Back to today's game.

    This afternoon, Bruce Gradkowski will be lowered by his ankles into Soldier Field. Tim Rattay, as is his new custom, will be ready in case Gruden wants a veteran to come in and not score.

    Back to the new quarterback search. The Bucs aren't ruling out any options, including the idea that the next great Bucs quarterback hasn't been born yet. Toward that end, Gruden and Allen have been working area maternity wards.

    Gruden: "Doc, what's the word?"

    Doctor: "A healthy boy."

    Gruden: "Spleen?"

    Doctor: "Yes, he has a spleen."

    Gruden: "Have a cigar, Doc."
    Chucky On His Game

    We'd be remiss if we didn't thank the head coach for doing his part to make this season truly memorable.

    I don't see where vintage bad Bucs coaching, say, Leeman Bennett '86 (2-14, fired) and Richard Williamson '91 (3-13, fired) have anything on Gruden '06.

    I know you bad-Bucs experts have been waiting for the moment.

    "Coach Gruden, what do you think of your team's execution?"

    "I'm in favor of it."

    But, thing is, you already have it.

    You have the field goal in Pittsburgh.

    You have the boot of shame.

    Sometimes you just have to let art be art.

    And don't forget, shoppers, after today there are still two weeks left in this season. Who knows what happens on Christmas Eve in Cleveland? How many Bucs fans will show up for the season-ender with Seattle? How many Bucs will show up?

    Then again, the Bears, Browns and Seahawks might put up a fight.

    They can fight all they want.

    These Bucs won't be stopped.

    Onward, to history.

    On with the big beat-down.




  • << <i>Has Gruden announced yet what college teams he's going to apply at for an offensive coordinater position? >>



    Yikes.. what college team would want him? He has been watching them get beat down, and finally puts Rattay in. If your team isnt doing anything on offense, game after game, dont you have to switch your rookie QB for a former starter (although it was in san fran)?

    Jon Gruden may very well be the most overrated coach in NFL history.

    << <i>Jon Gruden may very well be the most overrated coach in NFL history. >>



    I agree! He shipped out the guys that won the Super bowl for him before they were done. In fact, it was only because he couldnt get along with them because of "personal reasons"

    He's a turd masquerading as a Head coach.
