Solid practice.

Yes, Joe was at OTA practice today at One Buc Palace. A bunch of vets decided to take the day after Memorial Day off from the voluntary workout. But the young guns appeared to all be there for underwear football practice. (more…)

2021 teammate weighs in.

Joe remains interested in the historic Antonio Brown meltdown of January 2022 as the Bucs rallied to beat the Jets on the road.

Why? Because the Brown derailment probably cost the Bucs a place in history as back-to-back Super Bowl champions. (more…)

Tom Brady is known for being hands-on with teammates, but at least once it didn’t go so well. (more…)

Bucs OC Dave Canales.

This has been a thorn-in-the-side for many Bucs fans since former Super Bowl-winning coach Bucco Bruce Arians took over. (more…)

So Joe was at OTAs today when the Bucs, (most) veterans and rookies alike, had a voluntary underwear football practice on the sunny fields of One Buc Palace.

For those unaware, underwear football is guys in shorts. No pads other than a helmet. There is no hitting of any sort. Think flag football without the flags.

Let’s hop to it: (more…)

Joe doesn’t have to run, sweat and lift in spring practices at One Buc Palace, so Joe is busy studying all things Vikings in preparation for opening day on Sept. 10. (more…)

Chargers RB Austin Ekeler.

Interesting dynamic at One Buc Palace behind the scenes. (more…)

Rookie WR Trey Palmer will make Bucs fans smile with his wheels.

Earlier today, Bucs rookie wide receiver Trey Palmer, he of the 4.3 speed in the 40-yard dash, tried to tell the local pen and mic club he’s not fast. (more…)

Bucs OL coach Harold Goodwin helps guard Cody Mauch (69) with his footwork in the first practice of rookie minicamp Friday.

Joe isn’t going to go crazy here with a play-by-play, blow-by-blow account of the Bucs’ first rookie minicamp practice this afternoon. Most of these guys won’t be with the Bucs when training camp kicks off in a little over two months (damn, time flies). (more…)

Dave Canales will enjoy working with this man.

The Bucs don’t know who their left tackle will be. They know about center. But right guard and right tackle? Also unknowns. (more…)

Rookie Bucs edger rusher Jose Ramirez.

Joe has never heard Buccaneers general manager Jason Licht so jacked up about a late sixth-round draft pick. (more…)

Competing Bucs QB Kyle Trask.

Leave it to Sage of Tampa Bay Sports Ira Kaufman to ask a Bucs coach with nearly 45 years experience for his perspective on quarterback Kyle Trask. (more…)

Warren Sapp earned a hefty paycheck and his invitation to the Pro Football Hall of Fame by hunting quarterbacks.

He delivered hits and mayhem on football fields all over the Sunshine State, but a dark shadow is creeping into his life. (more…)

Bucs coach Todd Bowles.

The Bucs allowed an average of more than 28 points per game in their final six contests last season.

Sad but true. So it’s understandable why general manager Jason Licht handed Todd Bowles a new and exciting toy in the draft last night — instead of help for Bowles’ 18-points-per-game offense. (more…)

The Free Ke’Shawn Vaughn/Draft Bijan Robinson movements will love this. (more…)

Hated Saints DE Cameron Jordan.

This one will send Joe to the Big Storm Brewery taproom in Ybor City when it opens today.

Joe will be the guy crying in his Wavemaker Amber Ale and inhaling chicken nachos and onion rings. (more…)
