@Mark2001

I get not being able to afford tickets, or having higher priorities…..I really do.
But people insisting they are going to give up their season tickets solely based on whether or not Mike Sherman gets the job a FOS. I’m sure they either do not have them to begin with or are making idol threats that will not be heard.

Would they have kept them if Jon Gruden or Raheem Morris were still here? LOL
I have no idea. I know this, I pay to go to NFL games in Tampa to see my Buccaneers play, not to watch clipboards strut the sidelines and I most certainly do not care if that HC got into an altercation with a former Buccaneer TEN YEARS AGO to stand up for a player he felt needed it.

Again, OF COURSE I GET THE ECONOMY IS A FACTOR! Family first, no doubt about it.

Garv,

I would dare say that some marriages are barely holding on during these economic times. But that doesn’t mean that there isn’t a “last straw”.

I don’t have season tickets….can’t afford them. But if I was hanging on to them as my hard earned discressionary income, which has been shrinking the last few years and maybe is down to these tickets or a summer family vacation and eating out every week or two. And if that is the case, I would think that the word “entertainment” might be a stretch should a guy that gives you little or no hope for the next few years…at least…be hired. That may be 20 or 50 or 500 families. I don’t know the actual numbers, but with nearly half the homes underwater, why would giving up the tickets be far fetched. And honestly, I prefer football, but given the choice between the Rays and Bucs….especially if Shermy is the HC, it would be a relatively easy choice for the better entertainment product between two teams you try to support.

Easy there Tex no need to start throwing names around. Your right I don’t know what the Glazers are going to do next. All I have to base my opinion on is the last 4 yrs of incompetence. And that big move to hire Kelly. How did that turn out? Get off the Glazers jock and get a grip.

Alstott…I agree to a certain extent about the reluctance, but it’s also true that the “right” hire is open to interpretation. Ask the people on this site what that means and you’ll get 20 different head coach suggestions. Just because a fan says something is “right”, does that make it “right”? No, it doesn’t. This upcoming hire will only be proven right or wrong after the next 3 seasons play out, like with Raheem, and we see how they perform. Calling a hire before they’ve have a chance to be proven is like calling a coin flip before it lands. There’s no way of knowing ahead of time and anyone who tells you differently is trying to sell you oceanfront property in Oklahoma.

Dallas,

I was hoping what happened with Kelly was occurring all along (jangling keys around in one hand, and having the other in a pocket, so to speak). So, it’s not hard to believe they are doing it again.

However, this is the same group that hired both a head coach and general manager, both with zero past experience, at the exact same time. So, I’m sure you can understand the reluctance of some to believe they are going to make the right hire this time.

MTM…read it again you moron. I didn’t defend anyone or anything. My point is that you guys think you know what the Glazers are doing with Sherman and you don’t have a damn clue. They fooled you completely already and they’ll probably do the same thing again. I’m not a Glazer supporter, but I’m also not an idiot who assumes he knows what they’re doing in their coaching search. Get a clue.

@FLBoyInDallas

Trusting the Glazers to do the right thing at this point just makes you a tool. You don’t have to be sharp to figure that out. Stop with the defense of the Glazer boys and Pop star GM.

The Glazers fooled all you guys with the Chip Kelly deal, after dangling Sherman out there as a decoy…and you’re all STILL whining about Sherman being hired? Seriously? They fooled you once and they’re already on the way to fooling you dimwits twice, and you still can’t figure out the game they’re running on you. Not the sharpest tools in the shed are the Bucs fans, are you?

@Rick Stroud
Sherman got a second interview, so it’s obvious he’s supposed to seem like a finalist.

Honestly…if we’re not hearing about others it’s a good sign. The Bucs are probably working in secrecy again.

As far as additional staff, I’m not worried. There are plenty of proven guys out there that people have forgotten about. Guys from last year for example. Or guys who went into media after getting canned as head coaches. These are guys that would be good coordinators.
