Lynch or Barber? Who goes in first?

February 15, 2017 general

Wednesday, 4 a.m. There for a while, John Lynch was my favorite Buc. Oh, Derrick Brooks was the best player. No doubt about that. His internal fires burned hot, and while Brooks didn’t beat his chest, he had a pride to what he brought to the table. He was once described as a traffic cop, […]

Random thoughts: For lunch, he can have shrimp

February 12, 2017 general

I can’t wait for the NFL combines, if only to see Western Kentucky’s Forest Lamp perform in the 40. I imagine dozens of NFL scouts and one guy yelling “Run, Forest, run.” – A San Antonio woman is suing Popeyes for serving her her rice and beans that had “flesh-eating screwworms” in it. On the […]

February 9, 2017 general

I say this because I was scrolling through through the internet Wednesday when I happened upon one of those first-to-last quarterback ratings from the NFL.

February 7, 2017 general

Tuesday, 4 a.m. It could have happened to us, of course. Tampa Bay could have been the team that couldn’t stop Tom Brady. It could have been the team that flipped through the media guides trying to figure out who James White was, and why he was stomping on their throats. It could have been […]

Brady closes all arguments; he’s the best ever

February 6, 2017 general

Monday, 4 a.m. How many times can you paint Mount Everest? How many ways can you describe a sunset over the ocean? How many poems can you write about the majesty of a clear sky? And how many times can you look at Tom Brady, the confetti flying around his head, and suggest that “hey, […]

February 5, 2017 general

The guys in a room didn’t think John Lynch belonged in the Hall of Fame. As a guy who saw every snap of his Bucs’ career, I disagree. Loudly. So congrats, John. You’re in the Shelton Hall. – No, I’m not among those who would have voted  Jerry Jones into the Hall of Fame. What […]
