If you mess with the BULL,you get....the BOOT!

USF fans... Your new football coach is Skip Holtz! How do you feel about this?
Their last few seasons were carbon copies of one another starting 5-0 by beating up on the " cup cake" teams Like Wofford, Elon,Western Kentucky,and Charleston Southern and then falling apart once they get into conference play. Give Jim Leavitt all the credit in the world for building the team from nothing, but that's it!

I got tired of Jim Leavitt's hyper-act watching him embarrass himself and the program on National T.V by coming out after half time with a bloody nose from head-butting a player that had a football helmet on!...BY THE WAY BATTERY (ON JOEL MILLER ) IS A CRIME the last time I checked! I hated to watch USF get over-hyped (mainly by it's students and fans) and then come crashing down to Earth by playing undisciplined football. Now we all understand why.

Skip Holtz is a better coach Who has won the Conference USA Championship the past two seasons, and as far as recruiting talent he coached Titans RB Chris Johnson.Even before this latest incident I felt that he wasn't the right guy to get the team the"over the hump" and now maybe USF will finally beat Pitt,Cin, and Rutgers and have a shot at winning a Big East Championship!
REACT!

KEEP FOX ON!

Fox and Time Warner/Bright house need to do what ever it takes to come to an agreement and keep fox on our cable system. It is NOT right to monopolize most of the NFL games, American Idol,NCAA bowl games, and Most of the good HD programming that is on prime time TV and then rip the broadcast signal away from us at perhaps the most compelling time in the television season with hardly any warning at all. They(fox) have also managed to monopolize most major sporting Championship series' ie: The World Series and Super Bowl, and as a Florida Gator fan I am appalled that they have decided to use Tim Tebow's last game as a Gator as a pawn to hold millions of fans hostage!

KEEP FOX ON!

THIS JUST IN: Hades HAS BEEN HIT BY A BLIZZARD!

BREAKING NEWS: The schools are closed, the Lake of fire is now buzzing with ice skaters, and the ski slopes are full of people skiing and sledding due to the fact that "Hell has indeed frozen over". Why you ask?... Because against all odds and with a rookie quarterback the 0-7 Buccaneers BEAT the Green Bay Packers 38-28 to earn their first victory of the season.

The game started out just like every other Buc's game this season with Aaron Rogers hitting WR James Jones on a 74 yd touchdown strike completely torching CB Elbert Mack just three minutes into the game. At this point you're thinking "Here we go again" this is going to be ugly, but then after the Bucs go three and out and on the Packers second possession something happens...

The Packers tried to throw across the middle of the field and "Burnt Toast"RRrr Elbert Mack intercepted an Aaron Rogers pass returning it to the Green Bay 6 yd line setting up the Bucs first TD of the day (a 6 yd TD to Derrick Ward) and rookie QB josh Freeman's first ever touchdown pass in the NFL. The Packers regained the lead on their next series to go up 14-7 on a 2yd run by Ryan Grant with 2:39 left in the first Quarter and held the lead until something amazing happens...

At 11:59 of the second quarter Tampa Bay linebacker Geno Hayes storms in to block a Jeremy Kapinos punt and Ronde Barber "scoops and scores" returning the blocked punt 31yds for his 14th career touchdown. The Buccaneers first victory was the result of a complete team effort meaning...

1. Offense



2. Defense



3. Special teams

Buccaneer QB Josh Freeman was 14/31 for 205 yds 3Td/1 int and his three touchdowns in his first game is the best by a rookie QB since 1976.

Packers QB Aaron rogers entered the game vs. Tampa bay with the leagues best passer rating threw 3 interceptions and was sacked six times.His passer rating for the game was 57.6...Ouch!

This was only one win for the Buccaneers, but it was a starting point to start building on for the future. With the right players and better talent around Josh Freeman I think the Bucs will be ok, but its going to take some time!...Be Patient.

Online Gaming...At What PRICE?

I am just a bit bent on this new practice of Gaming companies charging a fee to play online! I guess that Xbox has charged various fees for their Xbox live feature which allows users to play online for as long as I can remember, so this is not my biggest problem because I'm also new to Xbox.

My problem is with the PlayStation network or (PSN) who are already "Cleaning Up" making Millions with all of the add on content to many different games which has to be purchased in the PlayStation store.This issue alone is fine I guess to a certain degree, but to expect users who purchase games to pay extra to play online where in the past the online features of those games were free is ABSURD!

Those of us who play Madden found out in this years version that in order to get the free code to play the "New" and "Highly Pimped" online franchise mode you had to buy the game new at around $65 ,so if you rented Madden 10 or bought it used you are out of luck....

But WAIT!!

Your in LUCK!...or they are. You can also purchase the online franchise feature in the PlayStation store for $10, so couple that with the add on content that pops up almost every day and Sony/ PlayStation is "Triple Dipping" and making millions. With the release of Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 just days away (11/10/09) I have heard rumors of having to pay to play online for this game also, but I must say that when I spoke with one Game Stop employee about this he said that he had not heard anything about this...so I hope it's not true!

We will have to keep our eyes on this and see if this pattern continues.

Your thoughts on this topic....

We don't know what to "Bull- ive" anymore.

In a prime-time nationally televised game between two unbeaten teams in the Big East which had been hyped and touted as (8)Cincinnati's offense versus (21)USF's defense,only the Bearcat's offense showed up. I shouldn't say that the Bull's defense didn't show up at all , just not at key game changing moments of the game. In the first quarter after holding the Bearcats to a 37yd field goal, true freshman quarterback B.J. Daniels connected with WR Jessie Hester for a 28yd touchdown strike with 6:14 left in the first quarter to take a 7-3 lead. On the next USF possession Daniels threw an interception to Aaron Webster (Webster's 3rd int this season) which he returned 83 yds and set Cincinnati up on the Bulls three yard line.With a Tony Pike 3yd TD pass to Armon Binns The Bearcat's were on top once again and never looked back.

The USF bull's proved once again that they are an undisciplined football team racking up 12 penalties for a whopping 113yds with CB Jerome Murphy collecting three personal foul penalties all on his own with two penalties taking away good field position and possible points, and the other one setting up Cincinnati inside the 10yd line which led to a Bearcat touchdown. With Tony Pike leaving the game at the start of the second half with an injured left arm, and the Bulls down 17-10 I actually thought that USF had a good shot at Taking this game.Tony Pike would not return and on their first possession (after Pike's injury) his replacement Zach Collaros executed a Quarterback draw that went fo 75 yds and a touchdown.

THIS WAS THE BACK BREAKER TO USF'S DEFENSE:

You see every season The Bulls get off to a good start after playing NO ONE. The Florida state game looked big at the time, but everybody (who is not Mormon) is beating up on FSU week after week making that win not look as big as once thought.Every year USF players and fans get too full of themselves until after their first loss which seems to derail their season as evidence of two years ago when the Bulls moved up the rankings to #2 in the nation, only to be destroyed by Oregon in the Sun Bowl. Jim Leavitt is a good coach , but is not the right man to get them over the top and to a BCS Bowl.

Which Playstation2,Ps3, Xbox360,or Wii games are you playing right now?

Hey I was just wondering what PlayStation 2,PS3, Xbox 360,or Wii games everyone is playing the most right now? Is it a sports game or a shooter or maybe something altogether different like a fantasy or role playing game. My favorite games right now are Madden 10, NHL 10, and NBA Live 10 for the PlayStation system.The other day when I was playing Madden I was backed up on my own 2yd line with the Buccaneers and threw a screen pass to Antonio Bryant who scored a 98yd TD and also had a 75 yd TD run with Derrick Ward in the same game against Dallas.I would like to hear one of your best moments from one of your favorite games...

WANTED : NEW OWNERS THAT WANT TO WIN!

MEMO TO THE GLAZER FAMILY: YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!


The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are sputtering into week 5 at 0-4 and I blame the Buc's owners for this season's debacle. The Buccaneers are 30 million dollars UNDER the salary cap, and have had the LOWEST payroll for the past five seasons. The bottom line is They have no cash and their interests are elsewhere ie:(Manchester United) where they also had to sell Ronaldo who in my opinion is the best player in soccer because they are strapped for cash. The Buccaneers made no significant off season moves in free agency to address the "holes" in the defense and in the 09 draft also neglected to draft defense, and instead MOVED UP to draft yet another Quarterback who is not even playing in this LOST season...

Since the 2002 season when the Bucs won Super Bowl XXXVII The price of season tickets has been steadily increasing,while the "product" and the team on the field has been has been dismantled and becoming increasingly bad. After starting the 2008 season at 9-3 the Buccaneers went on to lose their final four games(miss the playoffs), and after starting the 09 season 0-4 have lost their last eight games in a row. Year after year we always hear how they are going to make a "splash" in free agency by signing a "Tiger Woods"like free agent ie:The Brett Favre & Albert Hainsworth sweepstakes only to lose out to other teams because they can't pay the signing bonus and up front money.

We need new ownership whose interests and passion are in winning football games and not a certain soccer team in England! What are you thoughts and comments? React to me...
