bucs cheerleader 0811Here we go! Joe is pumped beyond comprehension!

The Cardinals’ dome is closed and the crowd is heating up!

A loss today wouldn’t be surprising, but the Bucs certainly have enough talent to outscore Arizona. A win today would shake Tampa like nothing we’ve seen in years.

Bang it here with comments all game long. And prepare yourself for savage postgame coverage.

Play nice. Personal fouls at not tolerated.
