So it is that time again. One quarter of Bucs ball is about to be completed and before this game is even over, the Bucs get a solid F... And that is being kind. Even as I sit here contemplating this upcoming loss, I feel numb towards this team. Nothing they have done has been remotely close to quality football. And the fact that the coaching staff is relatively experienced makes it hard to fathom, but this time I have no glimmer of hope for this team of nitwits and weaklings. From the coaches play calling and handling of time, their strange roster adjustments (the offensive line woes are linked directly to Lovie, he has no eye for talent in that department)- just a massive bore. The malaise is here for me. I will watch today. If it looks like another poorly run crapshow, I bid this team adieu for the remainder. I will watch the game rewinds and what not, but this team has EARNED my current level of affection. Like an awful relTionship where I am getting lied to year after year after year by the Bucs organization. It isn't just the losses. It is how we are accruing them. Sloppy. Overpowered. Ran through. Pass on like the secondary was air. The clown-car offense, and refusal to properly address the QB situation, the pass rush...it's awful. And year after year we get this:"Be patient. It takes time. Give this team two years and it will click."GTFO of here with that pillow talk. This team, represented by the Glazers, is a giant heap of crap. It is my steaming pile, unfortunately, and I will wait patiently for something to come along that will inspire me to get really amped on Sunday's again. As of the end of buisness today, this team will be an afterthought. I will love the team, but like a sad parent who has to let their child learn their lessons the hard way because that's the o my way they will learn, I step back and let this mayhem transpire, but I will be numb to it. Not angry or frustrated with the team. Just numb. Put out a watchable and entertaining product, maybe with an Elite player or two to make things interesting...man, today has the feeling of going to the hospital to watch a sick friend struggle another day. No pass rush. The Defense will get torn to shreds. Big Rape might go 21-22 for 280 and 3 TDs on us. Their defense led by an antique linebacker will wreck mayhem on Arroyo Me-Boyo's whipped cream offense. Glennon will grind through a vanilla day, get sacked three or four times, throw a pick or two, our best wideout will be Myers, and the Bucs will lose bad. Final score is rather irrelevant, but keeping it within 10 points would be a moral victory. Unfortunately, I'm sick of those. The real W's are better. Bucs 13Steelers 38Anyone think we will "azz up-face down" the Steelers? Those days of hope are gonzo. Lolz...
