He had a fantastic game against the Dolphins, and I’ll root for him as long as he’s a Buccaneer, but Stephen Holder ’s “Kickin’ Back with Connor Barth ” (I see what you did there) revealed the reason why Barth and I would not be able to have a conversation ...

RAHEEM FINED FOR OUTBURST : This is a couple days old, but I never reported it, so as far as I’m concerned it didn’t happen until right this second. Raheem Morris was fined $20,00 0 for chewing out an official regarding the Michael Clayton non-catch against the Dolphins.

Chris Simms will finally start a game for the first time since the Spleen Bowl in 2006. Kyle Orton was injured during Denver’s loss to Washington last week and Simms played in relief of him, completing 3 of 13 for 13 yards and 1 pick while taking 3 sacks all for a stellar passer ...

The other day, Raheem Morris explained to a group of reporters, and therefore the world, that he didn’t have the right guys on his defensive line or linebacking corps to “knock people back”. He also said, almost with lamentation, that he has to play who they have now, but ...

While Arron Sears was on his hiatus (Is that what we’re calling now? Is that sensitive enough?) he evidently spent most of his time working on his mental health and left the physical stuff to his nurse, Sara Lee. As a result, when Sears came back to One Buc this week, he was out of ...

Mike Pereira , the head zebra of the NFL, broke down the Michael Clayton non-catch/interception from this past Sunday and said the same thing I did in the game summary about Clayton’s left foot never touching the ground. Ouch! I need to stretch this shoulder out more if I’m going ...

Lane Kiffin is tired of getting letters from the SEC telling him that he’s not allowed to call other coaches cheaters or liars or douchebags. And he’s smart enough to know that the next time he does, he’ll most likely be spending the next game at home. And while the ...

SAINTS SIGN MCALISTER : With both Jabari Greer (burned by gumbo) and Tracy Porter (bitten on the balls by nutria) out for the Saints, they had to scan free agency and find a cornerback to pair up with Randall Gay . And look was still hanging around : Chris McAlister and his last remaining ...

Hey, look who’s back .
Bucs guard Arron Sears , who has not been with the team since March while resolving a ‘private matter,’ has been reinstated.
The Bucs get to evaluate Sear for two weeks without having him affect the roster. Then they’ll have to make a ...

I raised the question yesterday about why the Bucs didn’t blitz more than they did when it became obvious that just rushing the four defensive linemen wasn’t getting any pressure on Chad Henne . Raheem Morris addressed that directly.
“When you play Dan Henning , ...

When you’re 1-8 as a head coach, it becomes quite a chore to publicly call out everyone who needs it. The more efficient thing to do is to just tell everyone en masse that they’re not good enough , not smart enough, and doggone it, no one likes them.
“We’re just not ...

Raheem Morris admitted that he second-guessed his defensive playcalling on Miami’s game-winning drive. Wait, HIS playcalling?

Maybe now we know why Jon Gruden is staying in the broadcast booth. Raheem Morris got penalized 15 yards for unsportsmanlike conduct and I’m pretty sure he’s going to get hammered with a decent-sized fine for telling the referee who ruled against Michael Clayton that it was ...

Somehow, ESPN got Jon Gruden to sign a multi-year deal with ESPN to stay on Monday Night Football and keep him away from coaching. ESPN wishes they had 84 guys like this!
In addition to his “MNF” role, Gruden will appear on ESPN’s NFL Draft and Super Bowl week coverage, ...

I guess we might as well start with the call . When I first saw it happen, I was pretty sure it would be overturned on review because it seemed obvious that Michael Clayton ’s back had hit the ground before the ball came out. And when it wasn’t, I knew there had to be something I ...

This article came out today that basically accuses Antonio Bryant of milking his knee injury because he doesn’t have a long-term contract, except the author takes the pussy’s way out and doesn’t name names or give any direct quotes.

Over the past year, Miami has become known for more than just hurricanes and fat Cuban asses. It’s now known as the birthplace of the Wildcat formation, which has always baffled me since it’s just another iteration of the single wing which has been around for 100 years.
In fact, ...

I’m sure Josh Freeman and Josh Johnson were up all night worrying that they didn’t have Michael Clayton ’s vote of confidence in their abilities. Oh whatever were they going to do without the approving words of a wide receiver who can’t catch? Well, everyone can exhale ...
