Vita Vea is one

Joe’s officially calling it. (more…)

Antonio Brown dives into the end zone late in the first quarter.

This just ends any curiosity as to why the Bucs offense scores a bunch of points. (more…)

How does this keep happening? (more…)

Had time to throw.

Joe thought the Bucs got decent pressure on Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts. (more…)

No, the root cause of three bad passes in a row late in the first half doesn’t have to be the bad thumb of salad-bar-hating, park-violating, home-invading, NFLPA-ignoring, down-forgetting, handshake-stiffing, jet-ski-losing, biscuit-baking, tequila-shooting, smartphone-phobic, waffle-grilling, trophy-throwing, roller-coaster-scared, numbers-rules-peeved, helmet-tossing, football-punting, Bucs-Super-Bowl-winning quarterback Tom Brady.

Good morning on this beautiful Victory Friday. Joe doesn’t get to type that often so let’s dive in to the deep end of the pool while we enjoy it. (more…)

Joe is so encouraged by the Bucs’ 5-1 start, despite savior linebacker Devin White looking like a mere mortal and little like the force he was in the playoffs last season. (more…)

At times against the Eagles last night Joe was having 2010 flashbacks. (more…)

Was injured thumb bothering Tom Brady?

Tom Brady was hot as a cheesesteak right off the grill in south Philly. But with a few minutes left in the second quarter last night, Brady seemed to get ice cold. (more…)

Strong game!

Who had O.J. Howard with 49 yards receiving and a touchdown tonight? (more…)

Winning.

A win is a win and the Bucs and Joe won tonight (if you get Joe’s drift coughEagles+7cough). And my how things have changed that at least for one story, Joe isn’t doing cartwheels while trying to balance a Big Storm Brewing beer. (more…)

Yeah, everyone loves Tom Brady. But Joe has to bow to the men who didn’t allow Brady to get sacked tonight.

He was hit just three times. (more…)

Bucs QB Tom Brady.

The versatile and lethal Bucs offense marches on. (more…)

More hate.

Comments through tonight’s game with fellow fans and a small handful of haters.

Behave like a decent human being — unless you’re blasting the zebras or moronic Eagles fans who find their way in here.

Go Bucs!

Devin White

Without Lavonte David prowling from sideline to sideline and using his on-field savvy, Joe has no doubt what’s coming from the Eagles tonight. (more…)
