Well in that case, hey to everyone except for Puckett, who I'm sure at this point is trying to get everyone to do scotch shots. I'd say Go Steelers but I don't want to send your house into an uproar.

I rarely listen nowadays to anything coming out of One Buc Pl , much less WDAE. To my mind not ’til they get on the field can one truly legitimately say how this team’ll do.

As for the Bucs and spending money. Much like Ebeneezer Scrooge, Christmas comes but once a year. And this wasn’t it in terms of them spending.

Tell me are all of the people in the Tampa Bay area on meths ?
WTF ? Here’s this story about a 2 year old being killed by the family pet ….a python ?

Police: Charges Expected To Be Filed Against Python Owner in Toddler’s Strangling Death …..

I hope they ship his or her as_s to jail for some time !

There was apparently a recent article in either the Times or the Trib that stated the Bucs spent less money than any other NFL franchise over the past four years. Now people are coming to Gruden's defense saying he didn't have anything to work with. Did you read that article and if so, can you send me the link online? Thanks. Hey, Al.
