With Drew Brees next on the agenda I\'m just wondering how the Bucs are going to keep in this game?
I think that the Bucs will likely be down by by 14 in the 2nd quarter.
at that point Morris will abandon the running game and Freeman will...
Anyway 1-9 coming up!

It’s tight at the top for United
MANCHESTER UNITED are acting out their own version of A Christmas Carol at Old Trafford.
Jim Carrey is recreating the character of Ebenezer Scrooge for the big screen this festive period.
But the unpopular Glazers are doing it for real behind the scenes at United with swingeing penny-pinching that has stunned staff.
LEGEND ... but cuts have hit WhitesideFears are also growing that Alex Ferguson will not have money to spend in the New Year as the club\'s £690million debt begins to bite.
The cost-cutting measures have stretched to United legends being BARRED from seats at Old Trafford after addressing fans in lounges - or even having a HOT MEAL!
And that is on top of continued ticket price rises and redundancies, which have affected presenters and other staff at the club\'s TV station MUTV.
One United legend, who did not want to be named, summed up the mood at the club.
He said: "The cuts are really starting to affect people\'s morale. The staff are at a low ebb.
"We can\'t even watch the game or have some hot food to eat - even if seats are free and food is left over.
"The cuts seem to be affecting all areas of the club.
"You just have to hope it does not affect Sir Alex or any team-building."
The cuts will have been sanctioned by co-chairman Joel and Avram Glazer and seen through by chief operating officer Michael Bolingbroke.
In the 4½ years since the Glazers took over, they have a net spend on transfers of just £6.25m.
They use part of the club\'s profits to pay off the huge debt they have plunged United into.
Last season, the club made a net profit of £80m after winning the league, Carling Cup, Club World Cup and reaching the Champions League final. But £43m of that went to pay the interest on the club\'s debts.
A conservative estimate puts the total of money taken from United to service the debt at £250m.
Money that could otherwise have kept them at the top transfer table with Real Madrid.
The club sold Cristiano Ronaldo for £80m to Real, spending £19m of it on Antonio Valencia and Gabriel Obertan.
Ferguson missed out on his No 1 target in Lyon\'s Karem Benzema when he was outbid by Real, who landed him in a £35m deal. The United boss said at the time he was not prepared to pay over the odds for the player.
The Glazers\' spokespeople continue to claim the rest of the Ronaldo money is available. But the huge cost-cutting plans continue to go on behind the scenes as ticket prices go up.
Tickets have risen by an average of 42 per cent since the Glazer takeover.
The cuts have stretched to the treatment of legends such as Jimmy Greenhoff, Frank Stapleton, Stuart Pearson, Norman Whiteside, Lee Martin and European Cup winner David Sadler.
They are paid as hosts in various suites around Old Trafford to give their views on match days.
The former players would then take up seats outside lounges to watch games but have now been told they cannot have a seat - even if it is free. They have to watch it on a TV inside.
They also used to be allowed to have some of the left-over hot food put out for paying guests but are now given a packed lunch of sandwiches and crisps instead.
The cuts have also hit the Carrington training ground where \'non-essential staff\' are no longer allowed a free breakfast.
Groundsmen would come into the canteen after preparing pitches and make themselves toast from any left-over bread - not anymore!
United became one of the first clubs to set up their own TV station 10 years ago, believing their global appeal would lead to major subscription-based profits.
The club have always refused to reveal how many subscribers they have and a number of backroom staff and presenters have been axed.
United have also whacked up the price for radio coverage of their Champions League games, which clubs control independently.
This has led to Radio 5 refusing to cover United\'s last two European home games live. Instead, they have covered it from a reporter\'s house while watching TV.
A United spokesman said: "Like any business the club keeps a close eye on costs and tries to identify areas where savings can be made."
United will no doubt point at the turmoil at Liverpool, Arsenal\'s lack of spending and even Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich being more frugal.
But when a club that used to be the richest in the world denies a European Cup winner some left-over chilli, there are understandably concerns.

threads[4] = new thread(3829597, 'Worst Call Ever!', 'ArmandoG', '11/16/09', '01:18 PM','Before anyone starts with "we should have won anyway" rant - that is not what this post is about.
This is about the "Worst Instant Replay Call Ever"
Let me recap: Clayton leaps and catches an 11 yard pass - with two hands, as he comes down on his right foot he secures the ball with his right arm and is tackled by a Miami player. Clayton\'s butt, back, left elbow, all hit the ground and he has the ball tucked in his right arm. The momentum of the tackle now roles Clayton over, landing on his knees and from behind a Miami player strips the ball in the air and Jason Taylor catches it and it\'s ruled an interception.
Here is why this call reeks. It denies the basic fundamental rule and the purpose of tackling. If a player is not down when tackled, then the rules have now changed.
Once long ago in baseball a flied out was not an out until the ball was thrown back to the pitchers mound without any drops.
So does this now mean that a tackle is not a tackle - until when then?
This is simple math people. Throw, catch, run, tackle. If they can\'t get this right- what the heck else are they screwing up. Forget the game\'s outcome and concentrate on the awfulness of this call. If this had happened to the Patriots or Pittsburgh, Dallas, ESPN and NFL Today would be losing their minds. Bradshaw\'s hair would have grown back.
Clayton caught the ball was tackled and they gave it to Miami. Raheem gets a 15 yarder and Miami scores a TD. Instead of having the half run out - Miami get ten points in the last 1:30 of the 2nd quarter.
And worse this call was reviewed on replay - which everyone saw Clayton catch the ball and get tackled. This is the WORST CALL EVER ON INSTANT REPLAY.

At 11:42 I am now a Raheem Honk - Just like Dumig.....
Wait on second thought......
Why don\'t I just apply for a coaching job and show them my record for the bucs in my XBOX 360 Madden "09" hard drive. I dont see any difference between Hall of Fame Coaches and First year scrubs.
If I cant get an NFL Gig I am sure my stats will be able to get me the head coaching gig at FSU....

I have no idea how he does it, but he can make any game the bucs lose sound like a victory and that no matter what our record is we are headed to the superbowl.
Where do I start....
Yes the call was BS and should have been down by contact....
But the bottom line is we where winning with a minute to go and we let them drive the length of the field for the win.
Why do I even bother watching

There is something seriously wrong with a professional who is the same weight as the ideal "Spinner" from Mons Venus.
How can anyone get excited about two little people slapping each other in the Ring.
I can remember when I met one of my favorite golfers about 12 years ago, John Daley. This big power hitter, who is larger than life on TV is a Little guy.
This completly changed my image of him. Same as when I my Sly Stalone in NY, he is a little guy.
When you some Tom Curise in the Movies he looks larger than life, and ass kicking MoFo. In reality his women is 2 inches taller than him and has problably slept with more women than he has.
As a kid (12 yo) I could remember looking at Roberto Duran and thinking wow this is a tough guy. I know he wait was about the same as Pacquiao now....
But now that I am an adult. I cant get excited about two fighters who are both smaller than the referee.
Did you see the ref in that fight, he was put together and looked like he could have knocked them both out.
I would say for all future fights of these little guys...150 and below.........
Please make sure that the ref is about 5 foot 2 inches tall at least to give the appearance that the fighters are big and tough.
Its hard to get excited about guys who weigh less than hotties.

I purchased Body Solutions which Penner was pimping.

I Purchased Viaprin Strips - to make your crank bigger. I orderd the free sample and then they stuck me with a $50 bill on my credit card and I had to cancel my credit cards. Now this same company has changed names and is calling non-stop with some other lame ass product.
Why would I ever buy anything from any Advertisement from 620 WDAE, when they will pimp any product just for money.
I don\'t know anything about Nature Bee, but I do know of the other two products which I purchase because of WDAE....and I have learned my lesson.
I would love for the station to explain themselves, why would they subject their loyal listeners with products which do not work.

33% of the People Hate Sileo.
33% of the People Hate Duemig.
33% Probably don\'t Give a Sh!T.
I for one Love Sileo....and Hate Duemig....but I still listen to his sorry ass almost every day and every now and then I will find myself agreeing with what he says although its not often.
These are the reasons why I am Not A Duemig Fan.
Gave Trent Dilfer such a hard time, every stinking Day. And then we get rid of Dilfer and he goes on to win a superbowl.
Gave Chirs Simms a hard time for not being tough enough and then when he nearly died, all of a sudden he is a Big Chris Simms Honk.
All the Times he Says "You think you Know but you Don\'t Know" only to be wrong.
When ever he brings up the "Support your local team and dont wear anyone elses jerseys to the game rant...just poor radio.
For Bashing Jon Gruden and the GM, and then when he gets them on the radio he asks them soft ball questions.....big time coward....let me repeat that Big time coward.
For being such a Raheem Moris Honk, it is so obvious something is going on behind the scenes. If Raheem Moris had not been affliated with the Bucs and he was brought in to run the team Steve would be screaming that this guy is not worthy of running a billion dollar company.
And most recently for calling to have Coach Maddon fired. Does he forget that Coach Maddon brought us to the World Series Last Year with one of the lowest pay roll teams in MLB. I think at one point the Yankees where paying A-Rod more money than the entire Rays Team.
You have to have some pair of balls to be calling for someone to be fired who brought us to just a few games of a winning the world series. If it was not for mother nature, I think they would have done it last year.
He is quite the ego to be calling out Buc fans for being mad at the current hapless direction, when if fact he was bashing the Rays even when they were winning just because he hates the coach.
These are the things I don\'t Like about Sileo
1. He is a Yankees fan and all yankee fans are jag offs.
2. He only has the two chicks on the radio for the last 15 minutes on Fridays. They should be on every day for the last 15 mintues.

What do you all think about Cody?
Do you think weight will be a problem?
The running backs are getting better in the South Division and we haven\'t had a tackle like Sapp in a while.
Do you think the Bucs will pick D-line?
If Freeman(My pick) struggles will the Bucs pick a quarterback?
I\'m just wondering what the general consensus is. Now with Raheem in charge he wants to go with younger talent. Well with all the their picks it looks like a long draft weekend.

Personally I think the guy that shot up the base was just crazy, nothing more sinister than that. Political correctness did not kill anyone. A crazy american citizen went berserk. It does not do the military any favors to fan the flames of prejudice. I wish all religious extremists of all stripes would just go away.
