The whole country saw it.
Better yet, the whole Tampa Bay area saw it too. It was a packed house.
And yes, we noticed the Blue jerseys in the stands; so what. We’ll let them watch if thats what it takes for US to watch. If you consider it what it was, a huge 3 1/2 hour advertisement for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to show their product to people who now must consider it may be a fun day in the sun to go watch the Tampa Bay Buccaneers play.
Yes they may frustrate you during the game, but when it counts, when the 4th quarter is where the Bucs make their magic. The 4th quarter is where fans get excited. Its all or nothing, your either mentally commited to the game, or your looking to go home early. The Bucs should print a warning on all tickets: “Caution: temptation to leave early may cost you memories”
For the record, this was NOT #9 on the list of Freeman’s comebacks, the score was tied up 17-17 going into the 4th, but you get the feeling the Bucs will give you a chance later in the year; perhaps as soon as this week when the Bucs take on the 49ers who are flying high at 3-1 and in first place in the NFC West. The Bucs are tied with the Saints for the lead in the NFC South also at 3-1.
Watching a game in San Francisco is nothing spectacular around here lately, Checking out our Bucs do their magic that we always read about on the HDTV, was something all together different. And we werent alone. It was a Tampa Bay night as the Rays played their playoff game at 5PM, although unsuccesful, they will go at it again today at 2PM. But on the other side of the Bay, the return of Monday Night Football was the return of the Bucs Pass Rush for the second week in a row.
This 2011 Tampa Bay Buccaneers team is really parallelling the Tony Dungy led 1996-1997 teams in the way the young players are stepping up into the limelight. But instead of defense, this new version of the Bucs is centered around a solid young and improving offense. We will delve into this more on Bucstop.com today and the rest of the week.
And the great news, its becoming apperant these Bucs are becoming proficient in the 4 minute offense like never seen before in Tampa Bay, perhaps the only Bucs team to come close would be the late ’83 and 84 team with James Wilder. But that team didnt have very many ‘Save’ opportunities.
The Bucs are tied in First place with the New Orleans Saints.
