Gameday Tampa Bay
August 8th, 2013
Preseason Week 1
Crows at Bucs
Kickoff: 7:30 p.m.
TV: Blacked out locally. Game will be broadcast via tape-delay on WFLA-TV Channel 8 at 7:30 p.m. Friday, and Saturday at 10 a.m. on NFL Network.
Radio: Buccaneers Radio Network (in Tampa WFUS-FM 103.5, and WDAE-AM 620); SiriusXM Channel 136.
Weather: Per AccuWeather.com, not too bad at all. After expected afternoon thunderstorms, game-time temperatures should be pleasant, about 84 under partly cloudy skies. The temperature will drop every so gradually to 82 by game’s end with thunderstorms expected near the end of the game.
Odds: Per FootballLocks.com, Bucs -3.
Outlook: Hope you enjoy hungry players battling to make a roster spot. Greg Schiano all but stated that starters expected to start Week 1 at the Jets will play sparingly, if at all. Don’t expect to see Darrelle Revis or Carl Nicks and maybe not Davin Joseph.
Expect to see a lot of Mike Glennon, Chris Owusu, Johnthan Banks, Mike James and Rashaan Melvin. The Bucs don’t want to risk an injury to a starter, understandably. But players they believe are fighting for a starting job or have a prayer of making the roster are expected to log quite a bit of time.
Among the players Joe’s keeping an eye out for are Steven Means, Gabe Carimi, William Gholston, Derek Hagan and Jonthan Casillas and whoever the Bucs trot out at punt and kick returner. That’s the fun part of this game, not so much the starters.

I actually know that cheerleader. She was at my girlfriends house party. She is pretty hot
August 8th, 2013 at 3:50 pm
There are a lot of injuries happening around the league last few days. Keeping my fingers crossed we dont lose anyone during the pre-season games.
August 8th, 2013 at 3:50 pm
Gus,
Can I have your number(s)? lol
August 8th, 2013 at 3:53 pm
Things I will be looking at tonight:
1. Glennon’s mobility
2. Barron in the Dime
3. Who will play opposite Revis – RCB
4. Who will back-up Doug
5. After Teo’ Nesheim, who will rotate at DE
6. Who is the 3rd WR
7. Who will return Kicks/punts
8. Who will replace Barth/FG Kicker
August 8th, 2013 at 4:04 pm
Wow Mac I’m on that same page and the pass rush.
August 8th, 2013 at 4:10 pm
Praying for our players health, the injury bug is rampant this offseason.
*Knocks on wood
Will be watching the game on NFL.com 🙂
August 8th, 2013 at 4:11 pm
Lol @macabee my gf is smart enough to not trust me with that number lol.

Will the NFL Rewind be playing the game after midnight?
August 8th, 2013 at 4:45 pm
So I found out the bogus news that the NFL Rewind does NOT include pre-season games. But of course, you can purchase the pre-season package for 19.99. WTF??? LOL
Either way, it still doesn’t bypass the blackouts.
August 8th, 2013 at 4:58 pm
It does if you arent a TB local, which I am 🙂
August 8th, 2013 at 4:59 pm
Am not lol

Good question! Joe doesn’t know the answer (guessing, no) but it doesn’t cost anything to try.

BucFan #238,
No rewind until regular season begins. You must purchase NFLPreasonLive @ 19.99. You will get all 65 preseason games live. If you live outside the Tampa Bay local area market, you can see the Bucs game live. If you live in the market area, you can view the game immediately following the live game, otherwise Channel 8 will re-broadcast the game Friday night at 7:30pm.
I got it because I wanted to scout the teams on the Bucs schedule this year. If you’re not lunatic fringe like me, NFL Network will be televising all the games from time to time. With PreseasonLive, they’re on demand.
Good Luck!

The NFL preseason live specifically states that games are not shown until 24 hours later for blacked out games.
That was a deal breaker for me. As in, heck no.

“Due to broadcast restrictions, all nationally-broadcast Preseason games are blacked out and all locally-televised Preseason games are blacked out in their home markets. Blacked-out games will be made available on-demand in the NFL Preseason Live archives. Preseason games that do not sell out in either team’s home or away markets and games broadcast nationally on ESPN will be available 24 hours after the conclusion of those games. All other blacked-out games will be available shortly after the conclusion of the original telecast in the NFL Preseason Live archives.”

That is ONLY if you live within the area that it is blacked out on.
I know, I have used it before and have been able to watch the “blacked out” games perfectly fine.
August 8th, 2013 at 6:29 pm
Yea what you posted just states what’s been said in so many more words 🙂
August 8th, 2013 at 7:00 pm
BucFan #238,
You’re right! gotta wait for 24hrs. I’ve already left for the game. I got it for the reasons stated. I hope you find an alternative!
August 8th, 2013 at 7:11 pm
Just google other means, it should be easy to find. I know a couple ways but I cannot post them here :(. I just enjoy using the preseason package or else I would be watching through other means aswell..
