New Triangle Offense With Bucs

Saturday, December 25th, 2021

Bucs RB Le’Veon Bell.

Former basketball coach Tex Winter was a man who learned in college something he perfected later and won fame and rings with as an assistant on the Michael Jordan-led Chicago Bulls.

That is a triangle offense.

It seems, the Bucs now may have added their own form of a triangle. (more…)

Merry Christmas!

Saturday, December 25th, 2021

NFL Podcast League Championship: Ira Kaufman vs. Todd Wright

Friday, December 24th, 2021
Ira is just one win from an amazing fantasy football championship. He’s done everything right all season long and posted the highest point total in the league. Now, he must defeat Todd to win it all. Todd’s running out of healthy players and had already made seven waiver claims this week at the time of this podcast.

AND

The Out Of Control TSA

Friday, December 24th, 2021

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 in the playoff hunt.

Let’s hope a win tomorrow night helps the Bucs to once again play meaningful football in January. It’s a wonderful thing!

The following is an example to demonstrate how the snooping of the federal government upon innocents gets out of hand without proper checks and balances. On his rounds from the North Pole this evening, Santa Claus was detained by TSA agents — tipped off by the IRS goons — who have decided to call in the notorious Jack Bauer to interrogate Santa in the bowels of CTU.

Presumably, Santa is believed by the FAA to have forgotten his papers while flying over the fruited plains.

(This, boys and girls, is why you cough up the $85 so you too can utilize TSA Pre just like Joe and avoid harassment from the feds.)

Bruce Arians Announces Who Is Out Sunday

Friday, December 24th, 2021

Who is out?

Sad news.

While Bucs Super Bowl-winning coach Bucco Bruce Arians said several players will be game-time decisions on whether they suit up Sunday, two starters definitely will not play.

And they are big names.

That would be receiver Mike Evans and safety Antoine Winfield.

Brace yourself accordingly, Bucs fans.

Could “Rusty” Le’Veon Bell Be On Active Roster Sunday?

Friday, December 24th, 2021

Much like when the Bucs signed veteran corner Richard Sherman, it seemed a stretch that he would play in the first game after he arriving in Tampa. But he did play in his first game after signing, against the Belicheats. (more…)

Friday, December 24th, 2021

Not an MVP with NFL suits.

The NFL is no different. (more…)
