JoeBucsFan.com Optimist article REBUTTLE: 7.14.2010

You can check out the article and comments HERE on the JoeBucsFan.com site. It would seem I stirred the pot on Joe’s site, of which Joe is quite happy, as am I! Glad I could get some people to think; although the title of the article, which I did not come up with, is a little misleading and I think the greatest cause of some of the commentaries to not get it. The article is NOT about the Bucs were competative in 2009, to which they were clearly not for the most part. But that they WERE competative within the NFC South, which is the basis of MYTH 1 that I try to straighten out. To this, there is no argument, this is a fact. The Bucs WERE competitive in 5 of the 6 division games last year, period. You had some good comments on there from the likes of Gary and Ish to name a few. I may have liked ac3’s comment the best, who says ” how can so many people who claim to be fans of the Bucs since the 70s be so negative”…easy ac3, they havnt been fans since the 70s. These are the people who may have LIVED here in the 70s but were Cowboys, Steelers, 49ers fans, and then came onboard around 97-2002. Truely, if you lasted through the 14 years, then this is nothing, because at least you see a plan in place. Most of the morons out there simply dont want to be a part of a losing football team even for a year, so they would sell the future stability of the franchise for a 9-7 season next year, rather than 10 -6 through 12-4 teams for the next decade. Hope I was able to gain some fans from the melee’, welcome on board 🙂
