Buccaneer playoff game 2006

THIS WAS POSTED IN JANUARY OF 2006 hours before the Redskin v Buccaneers wildcard playoff game: This was the scene from my taxi about 3 hours before kickoff. The traffic was already backed up past Borders Book Store. I pulled into the book store and spent about an hour browsing. I bought the soundtrack to Brokeback Mountain. It is pure Country Western without any hint of homosexuality. Willie Nelson..Emyle Harris..that sort of stuff. What I did not know was that the crowd was going to be about 10,000 Redskin Fans! What the hell is that! This is our stadium. The ones I was picking up later told me they where getting the tickets on-line! That means that our fans where giving their tickets up. What! Why our you doing this? I have always been suspicious of Redskin Fans. THIS CITY IS THE CITY OF CHAMPIONS. YOU ARE TURNING IT INTO GOOBER VILLE! You GODDAMN IDIOTS! This was an embarrassment.  I'm driving around all afternoon not picking up our people only people with PIG NOSE...

Tony Dungy at his first training camp 1996

With football season over, I thought I would put up a picture of Tony dungy his first day of training camp for the Bugs. His first season on his first day. Who knew how successful he would become. This was at the University of Tampa sports complex running across the street.

Tim Tebow would not be losing by 22 points

It is halftime at the superbowl and the Denver Broncos are losing 22-0. I think its funny. John Elway can look at stats all he wants but Payton does not play well under adversity. Tim Tebow thrived in that environment. You kicked Tim to the curb and now your Broncos are flaming in epic proportions. Tebow would be the guy to bring you back now, but front runner Payton is not. I'm just a Gator fan named Tim hoping your enjoying your shit sandwich..

Was the Jets Colts Superbowl fixed?

The Colts run the flea flicker and Earl Morrall missed a wide open Jimmy Ore for a certain TD Bubba Smith said to his dying day that the 1969 Superbowl was fixed and he believed players and the coach were in on it. The key was the play of Earl Morrall. The Colt QB threw three red zone interceptions and missed a wide open Jimmy Ore on a flea flicker pass to end the first half. Coach Don Shula waited until six minutes were left in the game to put in Johnny Unitas. This was when the Jets were leading 16-0, and with no two point conversion, the Colts would have to score three times in a tight time frame. Why would they throw the game? Simple, the league wanted this to happen. The Superbowl was not the event it is today. The game kicked off at 3:30 pm similar to most normal NFL games. The NFL needed to make credible the AFL which they had merged with. A New York win would create a mythology about the game and propel Joe Namath to super stardom. The league could see the billions ar...
