Video proof of Lovie Smith getting fired up.
Joe gets a kick out of the meatheads who argue Lovie Smith, Bucs coach, is unemotional.

Joe had a chance to talk to Bucs defensive line coach Joe Cullen after the game.

You know who you are, Jameis Winston haters, unabashed peddlers of anti-Jameis horse manure across the Tampa Bay area and on this site.
