		<description><![CDATA[The Bucs have had an interesting off season so far and we all can argue about most of what they&#8217;ve done, but the Brooks thing is still killing me. I know it&#8217;s the fan in me feeling it, but I still can&#8217;t find a legitimate reason for what they did there. I could understand salary cap issues or something like that, but they are far from having cap issues. I love the addition of Derrick Ward and Kellen Winslow. I like that they moved on from Jeff Garcia. I&#8217;ll break it down to what I think is positive and negative. Positive moves: Signing Derrick Ward. Ward is an animal and should combine with Earnest Graham to make a devastating backfield similar to what he was a part of with the Giants. Trading for Kellen Winslow. Say what you want about this guy, he can flat out play. He may have caused some problems and may be injury prone, but I feel this is one of those guys that a change of scenery and atmosphere may help more than anyone realizes. Firing Gruden and Allen. I&#8217;ve already spoke my piece about this so I won&#8217;t delve into it again. Good riddence. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[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 are made and, being fans first, we tend to get a little too emotionally attached to players like Derrick Brooks, John Lynch, etc. But when new ownership takes over and the first major moves made are cutting a Hall of Fame linebacker and trading for a hothead like Kellen Winslow, it makes you stand up and take notice, and not in a good way. The Pewter Plank jumped out on this today and did a great job of putting it all out there and that led me to pile on as well. In releasing Dunn, Brooks, Hilliard and company last week the Bucs got my attention and sent me into a confused whirlwind wondering what the hell they were doing. I can understand and get on board with the release of everyone there but Brooks. The only explanation I can come up with as to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I got a ton a phone calls and text messages yesterday when the Bucs released Brooks, Dunn, June, Hilliard and Galloway. Thank god I was at work or I may have done something stupid. I can understand or deal with all of those moves except for Derrick Brooks. Why Brooks? Is there a plan to bring him back? I can&#8217;t fathom this and I really don&#8217;t know what to say about it yet. I will try to get my head around it this weekend, but I just don&#8217;t see the sense in it right now. I have to throw a tantrum before I go to work now, so I&#8217;ll catch up with you later.

		<description><![CDATA[The blog world is a wild place. I have learned a lot of things the hard way since I started doing this last year and it has humbled me like nothing else I&#8217;ve done. I have done a lot of things in my life that have molded me into the man that I have become. My mentality and my world has constantly changed in my life and I know it always will. There were so many seemingly harsher things that I&#8217;ve dealt with and learned from like street fighting, USMC boot camp, parenthood, etc., that I thought it would be easy to jump right in to the blog thing and roll along without a problem. It&#8217;s a totally different animal than anything else I&#8217;ve done. I started this thing as a hobby site and it remains one and, for those of you that read already know, I&#8217;m still trying to find a direction to take this thing as it evolves. I&#8217;m not trying to be a journalist, become a writer or get credentialed in any way. That&#8217;s where I find such a huge difference between myself and most others out there. Rays Index brought something to my attention tonight that [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have to admit I was a little surprised to learn that the Gruden/Allen era came to an end on Friday, but was happy I was at work when I heard it. My immediate reaction was laughing and jumping for joy, but as I let it settle in I tried to put things into perspective. When Gruden first arrived in Tampa I was as excited as anyone else with the thought that he would be bringing his high powered offense to the Bucs. Matching that offense with the defense we had in place, I thought we were looking at least one Super Bowl victory, but had thoughts of a couple in my head. After winning the Super Bowl in his first season with the team I couldn&#8217;t have been happier. Since then the team has been up and down and things have slowly gone downhill. All of the excuses we&#8217;ve heard made for Gruden are partially true. The injuries, salary cap, draft picks and what not, but it all comes down to the fact that the team has no direction. The spats with players, the lack of major free agents being brought in and the botched draft picks sealed Gruden&#8217;s fate.  I think this is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Full Name: Derrick Dewan Brooks Birthplace: Pensacola, FL Born: 04/18/1973 Position: OLB How Acquired: 1st round draft pick (28th overall) in 1995 What we know: Derrick went to Florida State University and was a four year letterman standout in college. While at FSU he was part of the 1993 National Championship team (bs by the way, no offense Derrick) and graduated with a Bachelor&#8217;s degree in business communications, which he followed up with a masters degree later on. Derrick was one of the core members of the Dungy/Kiffin defense that would wreak havoc through the NFL for over a decade, capped off with a Super Bowl in 2003. Under the defensive prowess of Dungy and Kiffin, and alongside John Lynch and Warren sapp, Brooks was a core piece in the innovative and much copied &#8220;Tampa Two&#8221; defense that has become a staple of nearly every teams defensive schemes from High School to the NFL. Derrick is as celebrated for his charity work in the community off the field as he is for his defensive dominance on the field. He is one of the most decorated athletes in the NFL receiving multiple awards throughout his career, topped off with his Defensive Player of the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m currently working on some player cards for the site. These are going to be short bio type things with basic info and a short opinion of what we think of the players on our beloved teams that we cover. I&#8217;m not a fan of profiles or anything like that because I&#8217;m not a journalist, I&#8217;m just a guy writing about things I love. I&#8217;m having a hard time currently with trying to put stats to them so if I can&#8217;t figure it out I&#8217;ll just put a link to the players stats in the post. These will be done randomly and for teams in their off-season as they&#8217;re easier to track, so for now we&#8217;ll be working on Rays and Buc players and the Lightning and Magic players will be done when their seasons are over. Post any ideas you may have in the comments of this post and I&#8217;ll have the first one out this evening.

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve got a lot on my mind right now within the sports world and in trying to kick off the new year with more posts I just wanted to comment on a few things I thought about over the weekend. The playoff games I watched this weekend were pretty good for the most part. The Ravens showed everyone who the real Chad Pennington was and Ed Reed proved that he is the sickest defensive ballhawk we&#8217;ve seen since Deion Sanders and you could even make an argument that he might be better.   Tony Dungy may have coached his last game with the Colts and I would find it pretty sad if it was his last game ever coached. I do get the feeling that he wants a little time away from the game and if anyone deserves it, it&#8217;s Tony Dungy. I would like to think though that Tony would jump back into the coaching ranks after a few years of sitting home with the family. He&#8217;s only 53 and he would still be fairly young by coaching standards if he jumped back in five years from now. I hope it&#8217;s not over for Tony Dungy.   The Patriots are [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well, it was as ugly as it could possibly be. Not only did they drop the final four games of the season and miss the playoffs, but they did it in old school orange Buccaneer fashion. I think we all took the Carolina loss fairly well, it was on the road against a tough team and the Bucs were banged up. The Atlanta game was tough to swallow, but it was another tough road game and we could all understand it a little. The San Diego game was an absolute disaster and no one wanted to believe that it actually happened. It all could have been salvaged though with a win against an awful Oakland team and a Cowboy loss. The Cowboys did their part by taking an absolutely laughable beating at the hands of the Eagles, but it was too little too late. The Bucs had already lost to the second most dysfunctional team in the NFL, and it wasn&#8217;t as close as the 31-24 score would lead one to believe. This monumental collapse has left me wondering, who do we blame for this? Let&#8217;s try to figure it out. The offense? Jon Gruden&#8217;s offense has never really taken [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Bucs need help going into the final weekend if they are going to make the playoffs and it should come as no surprise to anyone. Since the arrival of Jon Gruden in Tampa, the Bucs have a 13-18 record in December (which includes a 3-10 record in the last three years) and haven&#8217;t looked like they&#8217;re going to make any statements yet this month. Within this scenario as well, I don&#8217;t think this upcoming game against the Raiders is going to be as easy as most think it will be. The Bucs have opened up as a 13 point favorite against a bad Oakland team, but I&#8217;m not buying it. The one thing the Raiders have that the Bucs must fear is a running game. Oakland can throw 3 above average running backs at the Bucs in Justin Fargas, Darren McFadden and Michael Bush and that&#8217;s more than enough to make me cringe. If the Bucs lose this game, nothing else matters, if they win they still need Philly to beat Dallas in order to get in. It&#8217;s probably more possible that the Bucs get in rather than not, but it doesn&#8217;t excite me either. I don&#8217;t mind a [...]]]></description>
