im convinced the bye week has a negative effect on the higher seeds.

QQQQQQQQQQFFFFFFFFFFFFFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT LODM is absolutly right...gator fans as a whole are vomit inducing. Enjoy it while you can because as soon as tebow is gone you guys are in store for several years of mediocrity. Hell, you better hope harvin comes back next year because he was even tougher to scheme for than tebow. the biggest question i have is...how many gator 'fans' will there be in a few years? Not nearly as many as i see now, that's for sure. Yeah its tough dealing with all of the bandwagon fans. My roommate is a UF "fan" (blasphamous at FSU i know) and i just figured this out on thursday. I asked him to name 3 player on UF's roster. All he could name was Tebow. This has happened several times.

how about bobby jackson or anthony carter. Walker Russell in the D-league is averaging 15.6 and 11 assists. Will Conroy is averaging 25 and 7.5 assists Blake Ahearn (already picked up by SA) averaged 23 and 6 in d league. Just throwing out some names.

Eventually I think we need to trade someone (if only to solidify our rotation) but i think right now we need to be patient. More players on bad teams become available when the teams feel they are out of contention for the playoffs.

Everybody is happy for JJ and the team. I always root for JJ but try to keep grounded when he has a great game. This might be his one or two good games that he always has every season. All the JJ fanatics shouldn't be in "i told you so" mode yet. Cook did score 18 one time last year too and it really got him into the rotation.

Adande: (3:07 PM ET ) Lebron James has improved every year he's been in the league. Those of us at ESPN are flabbergasted at the rate he continues to improve. Lebron is the best player to ever wear the #23. Kevin Garnett Lebron James BRETTFAVREBRETTFAVREEBRETTFAVRE. Im honestly suprised this wasnt the response.

Somehow i think that would be illegal but it would work out well for us if its not. Yeah nvm, the rule for free agents is the can't be traded until dec 15th or 3 months, whatever comes later. I thought it was whichever comes first.

we should sign darius miles to a 10 day contract and play him in 2 games. Discuss

They should let this new guy call the plays because whoever was calling them before sucks. And why move the QB coach to RB coach. In the last few years the only positions that have consistantly been good were RB and WR. The position thats been bad has been QB. I miss the days of Moffett, Darcy Johnson, Mike Walker, Brandon Marshall, and a young kevin smith.

Viacom is trying to get Brighthouse to raise it's rates by a quarter a month so that Viacom can get more money. Dish networks is having the same problem. i gotta disagree...viacom owns those channels and all of them are very popular and without them BrightHouse would lose a lot of subscribers. The rates go up so often as it is without getting anything in return, i can't believe that BH can't figure out how to make this work. They have to be the worst run cable company in the country. They are too cheap. Well guess what dumb****s!? You're about to lose a ton of money to Dish if you can't figure out a way to keep those channels. When i said they were the problem I didn't say they were wrong, I just meant they were the instigator for the issue.

quote: Originally posted by KillingInTheNameOf: quote: Originally posted by Lewis4thewin:What has he done to prove he is a good coach though? I know he won the super bowl, but how long ago was that? Shanahan won multiple super bowls and kept that franchise in mediocrity while fielding pretty bad teams. A lot of coaches have been fired for less. In his 11 years coaching his winning % is .540 In his 7 years at tampa he is 57-55 .509% If you subtract the super bowl season he is 45-51 with 2 playoff appearances and 0 wins. 3 losing seasons and only one double digit winning season. so once again, what makes him a good coach? I'm honestly asking this question because i'm only a casual Buc fan because they're on TV here every week. The answer is longer that I want to post right now, but I believe Chucky is as good a coach as there is in the NFL. Since winning the SB, their talent declined sharply, and they are in the process of rebuilding it. With Gruden, as an offensive coach, it begins & ends at QB, and he's yet to have a QB capable of executing his offense. Garcia does 2 things well, he avoids turnovers, and moves the chains. But, he leaves more plays on the field than Trent Dilfer. Outside of Carnell Williams rookie year, Tampa has had an awful situation at RB as well. Honestly, I garuantee you I could run a faster 40 than Earnest Graham, and I haven't stepped on a football field in over a decade. I think Shannahan is among the top 10 coaches in the NFL as well and Denver firing him is a HUGE mistake. Their RB situation was a disaster this season and they need a better D. Shannahan has a very abrasive personality & my guess is that it finally collided with their arrogent owner. Gruden is 3x the coach Jeff Fischer is and I think Fischer is a decent coach. Tennessee stayed with him for 3 years while their team stunk & it's paid off. If the Bucs fired Gruden, I can't think of a single replacement anybody could consider an upgrade. Cowher & Parcells would not be committed to a long term stint, so that would be like hiring Larry Brown. earnest graham reminds me of samkon gado. He has some great statistical games for reasons unexplainable. Is Gruden in charge of the draft? I know the main reason for (my team) the Giants recent success is the drafting prowess of Jerry Reese and Earnie Accorsi getting value out of every pick. The bucs should see if they can get Graham Harrell in the second or third round.

quote: He was known as a genius, a mastermind and, yes, a Super Bowl champion. Shockingly, though, Mike Shanahan has a new title: Unemployed coach. Shanahan became the latest and most stunning victim of the NFL coaching purge, fired Tuesday by the Denver Broncos after a late-season collapse knocked the team out of the playoffs for the third straight year. Shanahan became the fourth coach to be fired this week, joining Eric Mangini, Rod Marinelli and Romeo Crennel, after going 24-24 over the last three seasons. That included three straight losses this year that turned a three-game division lead to an 8-8 record. http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news;_ylt=ApZvW0ycjeGCD4PK0...ed&prov=ap&type=lgns bucs should get him and fire Chucky.

The problem lies with Viacom. Viacom is trying to get Brighthouse to raise it's rates by a quarter a month so that Viacom can get more money. Dish networks is having the same problem.
