I could love the Bucs offseason but….

The Bucs have had an interesting off season so far and we all can argue about most of what they’ve done, but the Brooks thing is still killing me. I know it’s the fan in me feeling it, but I still can’t find a legitimate reason for what they did there. I could understand salary [...]

Detroit still owns the Magic.

The Pistons are still torturing the Magic and it has really become disturbing. The Pistons are not the same team that were perennial NBA Finals contenders of years past, but the Magic still can’t get over whatever it is that makes them struggle so much against the Pistons. Chauncy Billups is gone, Rasheed Wallace is [...]

Glimpse of Things to Come?

Game 1 – St Louis:
Meeting Sully Friday before the game was interesting.  The team has had to go through several transitions this season:  Melrose – Tocchet – Shoulder Surgeries (defenseman revolving door) – Trade Deadline.  We heard the game plan, and then we heard about what to look for on the ice from both teams.  [...]

2009 NHL Trade Deadline - Lightning Comings and Goings

Brian Lawton said he was looking for draft choices – we got one. We did get some depth at defense.

Guest trash talking.

Just to give everyone a heads up, I have written a guest “shit talking” post for David Chalk over at Bugs and Cranks. It was fun to rip on the Pirates and I may jump in on some others if time permits. Thanks to David for reaching out and letting me do a little trash [...]

Is it already time to rip the Bucs new front office?

As you all know by now, no one was happier than I was and still am that the Gruden era is over. That being said, I have to start wondering what the hell the Bucs new front office is doing right now. I think most of us have problems with a lot of moves that [...]
