Folks are going to have a hard time convincing Joe otherwise. (more…)

A legendary Buccaneer has plenty to say.

Keyshawn Johnson had a lot to say last week about what the loss (?) of Rob Gronkowski will mean to the Buccaneers. (more…)

Talks nicknames.

PRESENTED BY BILL CURRIE FORD

For 4+ years, The Free Stretch has been here for Bucs fans after being heard on several radio stations dating back to ancient times 2006. Bobby also hosted a national show on Sporting News Radio. (more…)

“Rondé, we’ve changed the whole meaning of Buccaneer Man.”

The Bucs signed serious football-loving warriors this offseason. (more…)

Bucs RG Shaq Mason.

One cool thing for Joe to see was Tom Brady sort of crawl out of his cocoon a little and slowly become more open. (more…)

Happy for another former Bucs DT.

Joe thinks it is cool when one former Bucs star gives a very public bro-hug to another former Bucs star, even though one replaced the other. (more…)

“Mmmmmm, Gronk like tuddies, Tommy.”

Browsing through the interwebs and listening to SiriusXM Radio, it doesn’t seem like there are a whole lot of folks who are shoveling dirt on the career of foot-rubbing tight end Rob Gronkowski. (more…)

“Gronk’s not here, Tom, and Cam can’t run that play.”

One of the reasoned and seasoned non-hollering NFL voices on ESPN TV is former six-time Pro Bowl Colts center Jeff Saturday. (more…)
