Merry Christmas!

Monday, December 25th, 2023


Joe hopes everyone has a wonderful Christmas.

For Joe, Christmas comes every day because Joe gets to write about the Bucs every day. Without readers like you, this site doesn’t exist. It is no more complex than that.

So Joe hopes all fans, including Joe’s many haters, find under the Christmas tree what they wanted from Santa. Maybe a bottle or two, as well.

Now don’t try to polish off that bottle in one day!

Thanks to everyone for reading.

Devin White Says His Game Today Showed He Is Healthy

The Out Of Control TSA

Sunday, December 24th, 2023

Detained.

Yes, this is Joe’s sad Christmas Eve tradition. But it is an otherwise hopeful Christmas, as Santa has allowed the Bucs to still be oh so close to a division title. (more…)

The Joe typing here thinks Brady is a big boy and can handle the truth. (more…)

Buccaneers 30, Jaguars 12

Could they be a dominant team?

Joe can’t go that far, but a four-game winning streak in December is stunning by any measurement. And the Bucs are improving steadily through the month, dropping a quality ass-wuppin’ today on a good but sliding Jaguars team. (more…)
