Premature Jocularity?
March 21st, 2015
Joe himself is an entrepreneur. Therefore, Joe likes those who have that spirit of creativity and uniqueness to make a few shekels for themselves.
Sometimes, to branch out and earn cash, you have to use your head. And a watering hole in Tallahassee already took a leap of faith that the Bucs really, really, really like the favorite son of Tallahassee right now.
It seems the eatery/bar “Madison Social” in Tallahassee is so giddy the Bucs may take Jameis Winston No. 1 overall, that it had pint glasses emblazoned with Winston’s likeness and assumes the Bucs select him No. 1 overall, as you can see above from the establishment’s Instagram page.
Joe wonders what the NFL will think of using the likeness of one of its employees without league (or the Bucs’?) permission once Winston has signed his first NFL contract?

They will soon have a “Cease and Desist” letter in their mailbox.
March 21st, 2015 at 7:25 pm
I guess that means it’s a done deal. If the Bucs keep the #1 pick.
March 21st, 2015 at 7:27 pm
I better get one quick before the injunction comes through.
March 21st, 2015 at 7:43 pm
Again…you guys have gotten me to accept Fameis as the pick but not #5!
Gawd I hope he changes numbers before suiting up as a Buc. I hate that # on a Buc QB.

Hey Joe.
I can vouch for one of your ads and some posters here would truly benefit.
That Mind Valley Meditation music is worth the click. I like Mind Valley. I have a product they offer called Philsopher’s Notes by Brian Johnson and I can recommend it highly.
Some folks here need to either begin meditation or start taking their meds!

Looks like a Lawsuit waiting to happen, theres gonna be a lot of disappointed people when we take Mariota. Gonna be so funny.

And then there’s this:
Lovie Smith: Bucs looking at more than QBs in draft
“I just know I can see why people would assume that we are going to take a quarterback,” Smith told NFL Media’s Steve Wyche in an interview that will air on NFL Network on Monday. “They’re two excellent quarterbacks that are available at the top. And when you get a chance to draft someone like that most of the time people do. But there are other good players in the draft also. I think it’s a deep draft.”
“We have a good quarterback we feel like, Mike Glennon, on our roster right now,” he said. “We realize that they’re two excellent quarterbacks out there. We’re kind of going through the process right now. We’re trying to improve our ball club.”
March 21st, 2015 at 8:15 pm
WS99,
Ouch. That does scare me. Lovie had every chance to play his good QB last year and stayed with McCown. This is either a smokescreen looking for an RGIII type of trade or Lovie is truly going to screw this draft up.
Giving Lovie the final say in this draft is like giving a 5 year old a loaded gun.
Something bad is going to happen.

@SuperSam
Telling yourself day after day that they’re drafting Mariota is not going to make Winston’s name being called by the Bucs on 4/30 any easier for you. Just accept it man.

Tell’em again DraftJamies,tell’em again.

“Lovie is truly going to screw this draft up.”
——/—–
I’m prepping for my WTF moment on 4/30@8p. Im trying to encourage 87 to do the same. Unfortunately my confidence in Mr Lovie Smith is not very high. I’m wondering if my original prediction of lovie selecting Leonard Williams or Randy Gregory (I guess now it donate fowler) may come to pass. For all we know he might select Gurley with the first pick. Who knows anymore.
March 21st, 2015 at 9:45 pm
This is truly terrifying. I like Winston but I would be OK with Mariota. Still, every now and then the thought creeps into my mind that Lovie will pass on both and look for a QB in the 3rd. If this happens, we should revolt.
March 21st, 2015 at 9:56 pm
Let me break it down for you since you’re not getting it;
To Draft Winston?
Glazers =. No
That’s it. Your opinions mean nothing. #DealWithIt

You people should listen to SPBF more often.
March 21st, 2015 at 10:40 pm
Actually, the NFL can do nothing. There is no mention of the NFL on that glass. Winston, however, can sue…unless he made a deal with them.
March 21st, 2015 at 10:44 pm
Do they not know who our head coach is?
March 21st, 2015 at 10:52 pm
barry, aren’t you tired of being a penishead, yet?
March 21st, 2015 at 10:55 pm
It takes a cool, calm and collected Buc1987 to withhold from commenting…
It’s been tough, but enjoyable reading all your posts, and not firing back.
You guys can continue and carry on about what WS99 posted on Lovie.
For me, Lovie can say whatever he wants. He has my support, but it’s hanging by a thread.
I suggest you show up on draft day at Ray Jay. If neither QB gets called out with that first pick. Then burn the place down.
That is all.
Good Night.
March 21st, 2015 at 10:58 pm
P.S. “Then burn the place down.”
I truly mean that. Bring your lighters.
March 21st, 2015 at 11:06 pm
I’ll be there Buc1987!

@StPeteBucsFan
Good read-Thank you

Both of these QBs have red flags. But I’ll take either one.
Holy crap. We’re Bucs fans. We’ve never had a franchise QB. Oh, yeah, we had one (Steve Young), but we ran him out of town.
We can debate until the end of time about who will have the better NFL career between Mariota and Winston. But the only bad decision that the Bucs’ organization can make here is to not take one of these guys.
Make your pick. Commit. Build your team. Compete. Contend.

“Giving Lovie the final say in this draft is like giving a 5 year old a loaded gun.

That’s not how we see it in Texas…at least the something bad part with 5 yr olds. Now Lovie, take his final say away quick!
March 22nd, 2015 at 6:21 am
I think all season ticket holders should attend the draft party, and if the Bucs pass on drafting a QB with the first pick then we should all yell in outrage, and then burn our season passes. At that point Lovie will have tuned me out as a fan. He has shown me nothing to this point and why the Glazers would give him that power would be complete shock to me after what he did to us last season. We should have never gotten rid of Schiano at least he could draft. I was one of the few begging to give him another year. I saw potential in him. I say Glazers make this decision and go with Winston. I pray for my Bucs! Haha
March 22nd, 2015 at 7:57 am
I think the bucks have to go QB. I think the glazers want one. It would be a great local kid makes good story but for everything swirling around Winston. I don’t know how much of it is true, but he still poses risk. I’m for mariota because I believe what Chris Landry posted about the vast majority of football guys favoring him. The key to me is Ted Thompson form Green Bay. I can think of no better talent evaluator than him and he likes mariota. Simple as that

Sorry for the multiple posts, not sure what happened.

@87,
That was perfect. Great idea. I will see you there with my bic, and a bottle of gas with a rag stuck in it!

March 22nd, 2015 at 8:52 am
I think they want to keep the trade options open just in case a cant miss deal is offered. Dont get me wrong, I want Jameis, but as many holes as we have I could understand trading the pick….as long as its a farm type sacrifice/trade.
March 22nd, 2015 at 9:02 am
Nothing the bucs can do that’s an fsu glass they should be more focused on all the money fan duel is taking from them

What does Olberman have to do with this again?
March 22nd, 2015 at 10:29 am
Nothing the bucs can do that’s an fsu glass they should be more focused on all the money fan duel is taking from themthem
And QB’s wearing #5 have gotten the bucs double digit wins in a season or playoffs, I’d be more afraid of another quarterback wearing 8 because like Glennon if he does absolutely nothing people will talk about him as if he’s the next Brady even though he’s only a backup

Hard to trust anything Landry says anymore. He said in the past that he didn’t plagiarize, then was fired for plagiarism when this came out.
Interesting Marcus M. breakdown and comments about Landry NFL execs claim after.
