    I seem to remember a game from my childhood where Conrad Dobler got kicked out of a game and threw his helmet into the stands…To the Joe that brought him up, do you remember this?

    Absolutely! It was known as the “Thanksgiving Nightmare” in St. Louis. Miami came in and blew St. Louis out on Thanksgiving. Bob Griese went crazy in that game. Dobler got tossed and winged his helmet about 30 rows into the stands. LOL

    I am a diehard Bucs fan regarding Mike Evans (and Lavonte David as well). That said I am not a paid analyst, local or national. I am not “still wet behind the ears” either. I realize that the NFL is a business.

    Raquel Welch did a great job in the role she played in an excellent movie version of The Three Musketeers. She was very funny. It stands the test of time. Check it out, film buffs.

    I would be very happy to see us draft a DE/OLB in one of the first three rounds if they he can contribute as a pass rusher sooner than later.

    Joe: Thanks for the memories! Hahaha

    One guy on this podcast I can never understand. Sounds like he is halfway through a micky when recording this podcast. Always interested in Ira’s points, although I think Ira’s point about Hill being traded from KC is much different than the situation in Tampa and does not apply to Evans. Hill wanted to be the highest paid receiver by far. With Mahomes and Kelce in the roster, it made sense to explore a trade. Kelce is the engine of the offense, everything goes through him. Evans as far as I know is more of a team first guy, currently does not have a huge contract and does not have to worry about the Bucs having to pay a massive contract to another Offensive weapon aside from CG. I cant see the Bucs trading Evans unless he wants to go. Fan favourite, future HOF player, he has at least a couple years left in Tampa before he makes a decision to move on.
