Live From One Buc Palace
April 27th, 2015High-ranking Bucs officials like national attention — for reasons other than MRSA and billboards calling for the ouster of the head coach.
So it’s a happy day in Tampa.
NFL Network is operating at One Buc Palace this morning, broadcasting live with Steve Wyche and Jordan Babineaux talking about the expected Jameis Winston arrival. (Here’s the video.)
It’s only Monday!
BSPN heavy hitters are moving in soon, as well.
All eyes are on the Bucs. It sure was a good thing the Bucs played Josh McCown in the season finale and pulled a partial tank job to win the Chase for Jameis.
Time for a moment of silent appreciation for Taverras King.

If national attention is what they want they should make Bruce Jenner part of their half time show. He will just add to the circus of clowns playing and running the team.

Its the prize you get when you were the worst team in the NFL last year! Are we supposed to congratulate them for this?
April 27th, 2015 at 1:30 pm
Tell me which it is…did he forget to pay, or was it “hookup” on the crablegs
April 27th, 2015 at 1:31 pm
Welcome to relevancy Tampa Bay. Welcome King Jameis
April 27th, 2015 at 1:31 pm
congrats lovie and licht….job well done
and the attention will surely follow when jameis is suspended
when the civil suit hits full swing
when he throws 20 picks
when we have the #1 pick next year..
keep up the good work

You know, that is so sadly accurate.
April 27th, 2015 at 1:44 pm
It’s really hard to get excited about having the #1 pick in the draft because that means that your team is the worst in the NFL and you watched and suffered through some really horrible games last year
April 27th, 2015 at 1:47 pm
worst team? L&L say we’re really close to being a contender.
April 27th, 2015 at 1:47 pm
Also got to thank the saints. They knew exactly what was going on, but still scored a touchdown with a minute left to secure the win. They could have easily just sat on the ball with only a minute left in a meaningless game for them and we wouldn’t have had the number one overall pick. So, a rare and most likely one time thanks goes out to the saints.

So let’s get some ecitement back in Buccaneer footbalL by drafting Marcus Mariota!
SUPERMARIO!!SUPERMARIO!!SUPERMARIO!!!

Will they bring in the clown car so we can see how many Winston look alike get out? Circus is right!

@Andrew 1
Now I wish the Saints had just let the clock run out.

The majority of Bucs fans want Marcus Mariota. Another poll on bucsnation today confirms that. Only fools actually want Winston and all of his baggage and mediocre skill set over Super Mariota. #WinstonWhackos

Here it comes! 3 days left, and then the Bucs make it official! I think I am getting a woody!
Comon haters bring it! Its your last chance, let it out …..

Wonder how Jaboo’s golf game is going.
Anybody else notice he goes where the big dog is?
Strategy?

You can talk down other people all you want, if that makes you feel better. I tend to enjoy it when people disparage others to strengthen their own case. It shows weakness. But, it won’t change who Tampa drafts.
As to the fool will be, when shall we meet back and decide who has become the superior NFL QB? 3 seasons? 4 seasons?

Ericwiseman – after all the stuff you say on here, you have a link posted to your company. Even if you are right about the polls, which is relative to which site your on, your still pissing off the Winston supporters which could negatively impact your business. Not the best financial move. If I was you, I would keep your personal blog post separate from your livelihood. Probably not a huge number but even if it’s 2-3% of your bottom line, is it worth it? Common sense dude! Just saying ….

I apologize for any name calling. I just feel like it is soooo obvious that Mariota is a better prospect…. football outsiders labeling Winston a potential bust…. I feel like my brain has those analytics within it as well and labeled Jameis a potential bust a long time ago, so it’s hard for me to understand how people could possibly want him over Marcus.
April 27th, 2015 at 3:04 pm
For some reason, i think we will go Defense in Round 1
April 27th, 2015 at 3:20 pm
ron and ian on the radio today said they tried to get jameis to talk. he wouldn’t talk about anything when they approached him. they also said he wouldn’t talk to anyone else. maybe they should get one of the bud light girls that will be at joe’s draft day party to talk to him. or one of the bucs cheerleaders…. or ex cheerleader like Rachel Watson…
I bet jameis would talk to any of them….LOL

Ericwiseman – the reason is this …. been a lifelong fan of fla teams, mostly gators until a kid went to FSU. Lived throught the meh ponder and manuel years, then came Winson and the vibe was unbelievably different. The drive, the IT factor, the no longer loosing to NC state factor. The kid is a difference maker. So that is what drives us to a preference over Mariota. That magical quality to fight the best when the chips are down. Having said that, we are all sick of the Winston vs Mariota analysis but what keeps us coming here is the fight. Its fun to bash each other and call each other names. It fun to see what rediculus things we are all going to say in our point counter point aruments. Thats why I say, take your business out of the equation and insult us all you want. No one can cost you money if the brand of your business is not out there for us all to either love or hate.

Yeah, how could anybody possibly want a kid who won a national championship, a Heisman trophy, threw for 65+% the last two years and nearly 8,000 passing yards along with 65 TD’s? That sounds like a recipe for disaster…… Yes, I know Marcus has similar numbers but it’s the system that Winston came out of that makes him more pro ready. Marcus reminds me of RG III.

Thanks for pointing that out Dream Big. Didn’t realize there was a link to his company. Will be sure to steer clear of the business.
I, like many Winstonites have done enough research to conclude that Winston is the better prospect and Mariota is the real gamble. Regardless, I will not do business who goes online calling me and like minded individuals fools. For what it’s worth I am not an FSU fan and I made my personal choice based on doing a lot of research.
