Banks Talks Lovie’s Defense
July 13th, 2015
Johnthan Banks sees improvement in Year 2 of Lovie.
Yes, the Bucs defense was sorry last year. The culmination was the curb stomping in Atlanta before the eyes of the nation, no less. Cute. [read more]
The Countdown: 20 Worst Buccaneers Personnel Moves Of The Past 10 Years — No. 15
July 13th, 2015
“You got me 15th, Joe? You’re out of your freakin’ skull, man.”
It’s the countdown feature you’ve all been waiting for. Not really, but on the heels of last year’s award-winning “20 Worst Buccaneers Of The Past 10 years” feature, Joe had to deliver.
A list like this is highly subjective and toxic. Fits of rage were common during production meetings at JoeBucsFan.com world headquarters. Scared interns soiled their pants. Full beer bottles were smashed, and a treasured Rachel Watson poster was accidently destroyed. But order was restored.
Current and former general managers and head coaches might not like what’s coming, but it had to be done. This is what happens when your team is 30-70 in its last 100 games. [read more]

Evan Smith Talks Jameis (Indirectly)
July 12th, 2015
Evan Smith discusses Jameis, without mentioning Jameis.
Joe has had fun poking center Evan (nee: Dietrich-) Smith for how he refuses to acknowledge by name the guy who just may save his Tampa Bay career, “America’s Quarterback,” Bucs signal-caller Jameis Winston. [read more]

Chucky Had A Good Day
July 11th, 2015
“Jiminy Christmas, I love Hooters, man! Love’em!”
What is a better combination than Bucs football and Hooters?
Joe can’t think of any and pardon Joe while he gets a bit nostalgic for good football and good chicken wings (and lovely lasses in form-fitting orange shorts). [read more]
Now, The Bad Bobby Rainey

Yesterday, Joe brought word (and disgust) about why Bobby Rainey was shelved last season amid a plethora of head-scratching, vodka-chugging decisions that resulted in one of the worst seasons in Bucs football history.
But as much as Rainey should have had more snaps, Joe’s not about to pretend Rainey was another Walter Payton. [read more]
Derrick Brooks: Sapp Will Be “A Better Person”
July 10th, 2015

Orlando Would Host Jameis Winston Trial
July 10th, 2015
How fitting that the Florida home of Mickey Mouse and fantasy, where legions of soccer-crazed lunatics run around in purple shirts screaming, “Kaka,” will play host to what might be the most important legal proceedings in Buccaneers history. [read more]
Glennon’s Chances Of Starting
July 10th, 2015
Chances of starting examined.
Sure, Joe is all about competition. Until there is no competition.
That’s what is happening in the case of quarterback of the past and quarterback of the future and perhaps quarterback of the present, Mike Glennon, and “America’s Quarterback,” Bucs signal-caller Jameis Winston. [read more]
Rainey Can Move The Chains
July 10th, 2015
Few running backs were able to turn catches into first downs as well as Bobby Rainey did last year.
Good grief, all the wacko things that happened to the Bucs last year, Joe can’t count them all.
Turnover-prone Josh McClown, Ghost Johnson, Anthony Collins… and that is just the guys the Bucs signed. That’s not counting the guys they ran off who were productive with other teams. [read more]
