As I continue to jinx our guest spot hit ratio, we have word that one Stylez G. White may be in attendance this evening. If so, I am sure we will have a good time learning more about how our defensive line is going to be more effective next year amongst other things. As for the rest of the show, big news out of 1 Buc is the signing of a new QB Coach. A young leader of men to learn under the watchful eye of Greg Olson. Alex Van Pelt (former OC of the Buffalo Bills) has been inked in a move to sure up our staff and give the young Josh Freemen much needed guidance.
Tonight we will be reviewing the following and looking for your feedback, so put the drinks down and use your email people!
- Introduction - Reminder about the Jessica Rose Foundation fundraiser Saturday
- News from around the league - Hey Cincy…looks like something is in the water again. WHAT UP?!
- Probowl discussion (Short) - Nothing like a scrimmage with no contact
- Superbowl Chat - Screw the Saints…just sayin
- Discussion topics
- Is it stressful being a multi-millionaire college coach? Is complaining about it whining or being a bad example?
- What happens to you, as a fan, if there IS a work stoppage in 2012?
- Is there ANYTHING that the Glazers could do, short of selling the team, that would make you believe they care about winning again?
- What are your plans for supporting the Bucs next year? You a season ticket holder? Giving up your tickets? Coming to the RIDICULOUS tailgates?
It is the offseason and it sucks. No movement but a Senior Bowl that showed a few interesting things. Tebow showed the weaknesses we all knew he had (not the end of the world people but not a surprise either). More chat about Mr. Dansby from Arizona is swirling, but does the FO care? Most of all, we have a reason to congregate and talk about our Bucs and other sports related and therefore not life threatening topics. So grab a drink and join us at 7:00 PM Eastern.

Tonight on our broadcast we were fortunate enough (through the work of Captain Bones) to be joined by former Buccaneer, Shelton Quarles. WE also covered news and did our normal things (including an excellent call by Chainlink) but the last half hour was really about what Shelton has been up to since leaving the game as well as some background you may not have known. Give a listen and let us know what you think. Additionally, if you are willing and able to donate anything (money, time, gifts), please contact Shelton’s IMPACT Foundation at info@prolanthropy.net.

We will be recapping the final loss of the year, talking about the upcoming draft and I am certain, discussing the coaching situation in Tampa. I am working on a special guest and will let you know more when I know more.
We would love to hear from you on a 2009 Skull and Sword (Overall) as well as your votes for the Skulls and Swords from the Atlanta game.

We will be live tonight at 7:00 talking about the Falcons and trying to pretend that football, for Bucs fans, will not be ending so soon. This season has blown ass but it is still the greatest time of the year. We will be forced to watch other teams pursue the trophy and then be force fed baseball and other crap until glorious football returns to us. My hope is that the Arena League can get its crap together and give me an alternative (GO STORM!!!).
In other notes, Mark from the Atlanta Bucs Fanclub has some exciting news and a great opportunity for local folks. Here is the info from him directly. If you are able, get out and show some support for Mark, the Atlanta Bucs Fanclub and the Bucs by enjoying this great deal Mark lined up! We will see those of you at home ONLINE at 7:00 right here!
From Mark:
To celebrate our last game of the season – Bucs vs. Falcons – and the AtlBucs Krewe carrying the flags and leading the Bucs on the field Sunday, AtlBucs is having a pre-game party Saturday 8P at Lee Roy Selmon’s on Boy Scout Drive across from International Mall in Tampa.
All Buc fans are invited to join us!!
Tell them you are with the AtlBucs Krewe and ask for me. For $11 cash (plus a tip for the servers), you will get an wristband from me (make sure you ask for Mark since I am collecting the money and paying w/ a credit card):
- All-you-can-eat wings (some of the best ever), nachos, quesadillas, and fried green tomatoes. Please note that I made a mistake on my previous email – it does not include Ahi tuna or sweet potato fries.
- Run your own tab for drinks including a special AtlBucs deal…..$1.63 for domestic beer.
Try and wear your AtlBucs t-shirt, Bucs jersey or other Buccaneer related shirt to show your support!
Hope to see you Saturday at Selmon’s!! Pass the word to others!!

Well, even the most ardent and biased fan could not have truly expected a win this weekend against the 13-1 New Orleans Saints but fortunately and despite a horrible first half of football, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers made some people rich in Vegas Sunday. The 20-17 OT victory provided another brief spot of happiness in an overwhelmingly depressing season. The continued improvement of the defense against a team that has, let’s say, a powerful offense, is a cornerstone for growth. I know the naysayers are still pounding their chests about how horrible everything is and how the coaching staff has the intellect of the produce section at Publix, (regional reference to a super market….use Kroger or Safeway if it makes you happier) but the team does seem to be showing some distinct signs of improvement.
This week we will have our normal Monday show going over the predictive MVP’s, the Keys to the game and reviewing the tape. Make sure you get your Skulls and Swords in early here.
Discussion topics this week will include
- Is this really improvement or is the team as bad as it looked in the first 3/4 of the season?
- Are you excited about the Cowher rumors?
- A 100 yard rusher? Good play by the OLine or outstanding effort by Caddy?
- Freeman: Is he the answer or do we know yet?
- Is it me or does Antonio Bryant seem like a whiny bitch? (I know Spent agrees)
We will be live tonight (Monday) at 7:00 PM right here. Tell your friends to join us (and you show up too!)

Hello folks. I know that the Monday cancellation caused some confusion and for that, I am sorry. With the live event Sunday and the guest spot on 1010 AM Monday AM, we figured Monday night would have been overkill. If you missed any of that content, it is all available via the podcast and on the site now.
As for New Orleans, you know, the next team that we play, we will be talking Saints Wednesday night at 7:00 PM. The previously perfect Saints will be prepared to take out their frustration on a hapless Bucs squad that managed to put some things together on the West Coast and get a win for their embattled head coach. The atmosphere will be that of a party in The Big Easy as they will certainly expect to have little trouble with the 2-12 squad from Tampa.

The folks over at 1010 AM were kind enough to let me come in and talk Bucs football after the Seahawks win. This is part one of the show from December 21, 2009.

Never concerned about being politically correct, we are making a menu for the weekend and Seahawk better be the main course! After a DISGUSTING outing on offense versus the Jets last week, even a diehard, pewter glasses wearing freak like me was repulsed. I get it. Losing sucks. You guys are paid a ludicrous amount of money to play a game. I do not question that as it is tied to revenue. Get as much as you can gentleman. But, as a fan, I expect every play you are in on to be run at the your maximum efficiency and effort. Giving up is not acceptable. As for the bitterness from RaRa, screw that too. You are the leader. LEAD! You do NOT get to whine and bitch about anyone, reporters included. In Seattle this week, the Bucs can redeem themselves on the effort side by playing a strong game on both sides of the ball.
We will talk about the upcoming game tonight at 7:00 PM right here as well as on the “Big Boy” radio dial, 1010 AM here in the Tampa Bay area for the Morning Show on Friday (7:00 AM - 9:00 AM). The fine crew there have been nice enough to ask me to come in and tempt fate with the FCC yet again and as a budding media whore (I am in Captain Bones training class), I was all over it!
Topics for tonight include:
- News from around the league
- Injury Updates
- Discussion Points
- Have you given up and why?
- If you have tickets, are you going to the Falcons game?
- What will it take to bring you back?
- Are you still encouraged by Josh Freeman?
- What would you do with guys whose effort level is in the crapper?
- Seattle Seahawks Deep Dive
- Bucs “Self Evaluation of Ourselves”
- Keys to the Game
- Predictive MVP’s
- Pewter Prognostication
Get your predictive MVPs and scores into the email box questions AT whatthebuc DOT net.
REMINDER: We have a LIVE SHOW this weekend at O’Houstons Irish Pub! Get your asses out there and enjoy the food and drink specials with other depressed but passionate Bucs fans! Eddie and the team do a great job as hosts so come experience it live! We will have a Pregame, Haltime and Postgame show as well as live Internet chat.
