What Is Donald Penn Getting At?
April 9th, 2013
Bucs stud left tackle Donald Penn is one of the coolest guys in the Bucs’ locker room. And recently he signed up for Twitter and has been a Twittering fool.
If you happen to be a Lakers fan in addition to a Bucs fan, Penn is a must follow.
This afternoon, Penn seemed to be teasing Bucs fans claiming there is some big news ahead.
@DPENN70: I just heard some good news Bucs fans y’all will find out soon and it has nothing 2do with Revis but will help our team out a lot #trustme
So if this isn’t Revis, what could it be?
Did Bucs rock star general manager Mark Dominik swing a trade for a corner other than Darrelle Revis?
Did Dominik sign a right tackle?
Did Dominik trade for a tight end?
Or, what may be more likely, has graybeard Bucs legend Ronde Barber made his decision to return to the Bucs?
The plot thickens.
UPDATE: Donald Penn sent out another Twitter to clarify his previous statement and suggests the “good news” does not involve Ronde Barber.
DPENN70: Dang I didn’t know it would do this but here is a hint has nothing 2do with the GOAT Ronde Barber as far as I know he is still undecided
Could it be that Mike Williams signed an extension?
And no, “GOAT” does not mean Sabby the Goat, but is an acronym for “Greatest of All Time.”

Andre smith at RT?
April 9th, 2013 at 4:28 pm
Guessing Ronde is coming back.
April 9th, 2013 at 4:28 pm
I hope it’s Ronde!
April 9th, 2013 at 4:31 pm
Eric Winston? It would make sense that Penn would know first
April 9th, 2013 at 4:33 pm
Lol love your pushing be calm joe

My guess is Ronde is coming back.
April 9th, 2013 at 4:35 pm
I’m guessing Ronde.
April 9th, 2013 at 4:36 pm
they must of fired the Pop-star?
April 9th, 2013 at 4:39 pm
If it is Ronde, and no offense to him, but that news is…well…yawn.
April 9th, 2013 at 4:42 pm
Wright or Ronde coming back most likely
April 9th, 2013 at 4:43 pm
Raheem is coming back as equipment manager.
April 9th, 2013 at 4:46 pm
Winston
April 9th, 2013 at 4:50 pm
O the power of the athlete and social media.if its not revis then it’s not a cb.that leaves o-line, dt, or urlacher and we move foster outside…
April 9th, 2013 at 4:53 pm
I hope it is something nobody sees coming ,ya I want ronda back but I want and hope splash move.Winston or something close would be great.We will start off great this year I just hope It sells tickets so I can watch the game because I can only afford 2 games year.Bucs 11-5 2013
April 9th, 2013 at 4:55 pm
Has to be Ronde coming back or a RT signing. Can’t imagine Dom would confer with Penn about any other position. And Penn might have found out from Ronde. Hope it is either one.
April 9th, 2013 at 4:57 pm
I love me some Donald Penn. He came from undrafted and youngry, to fat and paid. My man, he is a great player and a helluva a dude.
His transparency, lack of BS, and fighter mentality (fought Jared Allen, and then Allen got a beast sack on next play) are all reasons to love Penn.
He is American as hell and I wish big #70 all the best, I think we got Clabo.
April 9th, 2013 at 4:57 pm
Honestly I love Ronde, have been watching him since I was a kid an dI do want him back. With that said, him coming back doesn’t make the team better, it keeps it the same. Hope it is something no one is guessing. Freeman extension, which I would be a huge fan of, would be the ultimate laugh out loud moment for me reading all of the anti-Freeman posters out there.
April 9th, 2013 at 5:04 pm
Penn and the players know just as much as the GMs out there. They don’t call the shots, but don’t be naive the players and agents talk. That is how business gets done.
April 9th, 2013 at 5:06 pm
Blount extension.
Maybe Freeman.
April 9th, 2013 at 5:07 pm
Hope it’s Ronde coming back but I have a hunch that Mike Williams has agreed to a new contract.
April 9th, 2013 at 5:07 pm
What are ya sayin? The Penn is mightier than the board?
April 9th, 2013 at 5:10 pm
@ J 2.0 –
Ronde coming back doesn’t make the team better? Please tell us about this other guy on the roster who will be a better nickelback in 2013…
Goldson+Ronde as Free Safety and Nickelback is better than Goldson at FS and Leonard Johnson or Danny Gorrer playing nickel.
Btw, we played with a nickelback in over 70% of our snaps last season, still very much an impact position.

Keep dreaming… If Dom is that stupid, i have no doubt he will botch this whole Revis mess and we are doomed for the next 5 years.
April 9th, 2013 at 5:13 pm
I doubt it’s about Ronde. His coming back would be just maintaining the status quo, must be something else.
April 9th, 2013 at 5:13 pm
@j2. Can not be extension of Freeman as they have said they will not consider that until after 2013 season.
On 2nd thought, someone mentioned Penn being a fighter, who was it that sat in Price’s chair and got a knot put on his head?
April 9th, 2013 at 5:15 pm
Did we just sign another kicker!!!
April 9th, 2013 at 5:17 pm
I GOTS TO KNOW.
I just know I am going to get my hopes up and it won’t be that big of a deal.
HOPE I AM WRONG!

Just got the info. One Buc Place hired a new chef that isn’t as health conscious as the previous one.

Everyone needs to get over the fact that Revis isn’t coming. I seriously doubt he wants to play in Tampa and the Jets aren’t going to deal him unless they get the farm for him.
Time to move on, folks.

Myron Lewis has been resigned to a multi year deal?
April 9th, 2013 at 5:26 pm
The Termites are back? Or maybe it’s the Palmetto bugs? I want to know!
April 9th, 2013 at 5:26 pm
Bucs will return to creamsicle unis permanently??
April 9th, 2013 at 5:31 pm
stevek , Penn had the ability to possibly approach greatness but his gluttony has deflected his career.
April 9th, 2013 at 5:37 pm
Also Tweeted “Its not Barber”
Am hearing the same rumors as everyone else, I would like to read some truths on this. He’s 8 days late on April Fool’s.
April 9th, 2013 at 5:38 pm
Its mike william extention! thats good news, but i dont know that its great news
April 9th, 2013 at 5:38 pm
I am in agreement Rhonde coming back is not improvement, Freeman extension will not be an improvement either. I tend to believe Penn is aware of a player coming here. Winston would be awesome.
April 9th, 2013 at 5:39 pm
They fired Dominik.
April 9th, 2013 at 5:40 pm
Hell must be getting ready to freeze…I actually agree with @stevenk about Penn being a real straight up guy.Damnit
April 9th, 2013 at 5:41 pm
Its not Ronde per his twitter acount
April 9th, 2013 at 5:42 pm
If it the Mike Williams extension I don’t think I’ll pee my pants over it. Also, doesn’t make the team better, keeps it the same. Plus he really wussed it up in that Rams game last year.
April 9th, 2013 at 5:48 pm
Vinny’s comin back, and he’s bringing Tebow with him
April 9th, 2013 at 5:54 pm
Williams extension doesn’t “help” the team, per se.
April 9th, 2013 at 5:58 pm
indoor practice facilities
April 9th, 2013 at 6:05 pm
I’m Cool Hand Luke level-headed and Donald Penn has me guessing.
April 9th, 2013 at 6:07 pm
They have finally found a way to eliminate lovebugs. Damn lovebugs !
April 9th, 2013 at 6:10 pm
I have to think it is Vet. RT.
April 9th, 2013 at 6:11 pm
Elvis, just signed a five-year contract…..
April 9th, 2013 at 6:20 pm
As per Rick Stroud: Eric Wright restructure’s deal to remain in Tampa.
DAMMIT PENN WHY’D YOU GET MY HOPES UP!!!! BETTER BE MORE TO THIS>
April 9th, 2013 at 6:22 pm
Just read Wright restructured his contract on twitter.
April 9th, 2013 at 6:23 pm
Schiano allowing rap music in the locker room
April 9th, 2013 at 6:26 pm
Wright restructures his contract now we have him on a one year deal
April 9th, 2013 at 6:28 pm
Finally a non-Revis related article! I think D Penn has hooked himself some starving news Bucs fans. Probably laughing at all the reaction his Twitter is getting.
I know the news is slow right now, but all this “he said, she said” drama over Revis has gotten quite old. I won’t stop reading the blogs, but I really crave some “substantial” news about a trade.
April 9th, 2013 at 6:30 pm
When are we going to find out, wow do we love football this little thing is just so big.Damn I love the Bucs,the offseason is so bitter sweet.
April 9th, 2013 at 6:32 pm
T.O. is coming to tampa,thats my Quaterback.
April 9th, 2013 at 6:42 pm
If you are reading this- I guess you haven’t heard that we signed another kicker
April 9th, 2013 at 6:53 pm
Its about the indoor/ bubble practice facility…..guaranteed! Im thinking he just didnt know that news was already out there. Think about it, who in this world would be happier to find out this news? Nobody!
April 9th, 2013 at 8:31 pm
It’s just not “WRIGHT.”
April 10th, 2013 at 7:30 am
He looks like a little kid in that pic with Shaq on his twitter lol.
