Bucs Reach “Infamy”
January 3rd, 2016Last week, it was pointed out by none other than the Custodian of Canton, eye-RAH! Kaufman of the Tampa Tribune, that the Bucs were on the cusp of NFL history with a loss to the Stinking Panthers.
And after today’s curb-stomping by the Stinking Panthers, infamy has been reached.
Since the AFL/NFL merger in 1970, no NFC team has finished in the basement of its division five straight years. Until tonight.
The Bucs have become the first NFL team in modern history to be in last place for half a decade (and counting). At least that’s something to hang your hat on. Not even the expansion Bucs, which lost its first 26 games, could pull that off.
It is officially the worst era of Bucs football.

Lovie changed addresses but has never left the basement for the last 3 years!!!
January 3rd, 2016 at 8:29 pm
Raheem sucked
Schiano sucked
Lovie sucks (and hopefully that can be past tense by tomorrow)
The common thread: The Glazer boys, who might be making us long for Culverhouse soon. They are solely responsible for the worst Bucs era ever.

Hat tip LovieDovie!

The fans aren’t supposed to be patient…thanks Lovie. Still holding my breathe.
January 3rd, 2016 at 8:32 pm
Joe keeps saying that the most important lesson licht has ever learned!! Admit you mistake and move on!!!!
Keep moving Glazers!!!!

@ The Realist
I bet you ejaculated all over your TV set today!!!…..maybe even twice.
I’ve never seen you more engaged…..a 4 game losing streak and another year to write your mindless posts.
After 40 years as a Buc fan….I now have one more reason to root for the Bucs…..to see you STFU.

Embarrassing
January 3rd, 2016 at 8:33 pm
I said this last week and I will say it again, this boob makes me dream of glory days where out players were called “yungry” and our Dline crashed the victory formation.
My goodness it’s good to have a guy like incompetent Lovie Smith here catapulting this franchise into relevancy!!
I’m sad

@Realst
And….you keep this up….I will attack you mercilessly and urge true Buc fans to do the same…..I’ll do it every day several times a day until you start “talking football” as you erroneously claim you do.

@ The Glazers
These are not tough times!!! It is time to be Tough!!!! Stand up and pull this Franchise out of the garbage!!!! Do not do what is easy and keep the status quo and watch your business flounder!!!!
Now is time to lead!!! If you do what is hard and make the right decision, years from fans will talk about how the owners took over the situation when it looked so bleak, And carried this Franchise back to greatness!!!!
You have to take that chance Mr Glazers!!!!!!!!
January 3rd, 2016 at 8:36 pm
That falls on the coaching staff…
It’s as simple as that!
January 3rd, 2016 at 8:37 pm
Whatever, I’m signed up for this long haul voyage from day one. The rafters are creaking, the ship is taking on water yet remains barely afloat. Hope for the future springs eternal.
January 3rd, 2016 at 8:42 pm
If by some miracle of justice incompetent Lovie Smith gets shtcanned can we please revert our unis back?
January 3rd, 2016 at 8:46 pm
My wife just asked if this means the Bucs have a high draft pick again this year. It then occurred to me that our marriage and overall family dynamic would be greatly improved if the Bucs weren’t such an awful football team based on my mood on Sundays for 17 weeks at the end of the year.
January 3rd, 2016 at 8:51 pm
I wonder how it feels for Lovie to keep getting butt-whipped by a coach that he once fired?
January 3rd, 2016 at 8:58 pm
From a Season Pass Member…..Glazers PLEASE fire Lovie and move on. Promote Koetter and clean house on the defensive side of the ball. I have been a Buc fan since 1982 and this is the worst ever.
January 3rd, 2016 at 8:59 pm
We are wasting an opportunity with our young QB with this incompetent coach. Be bold Glazers and cut bait and move forward.
January 3rd, 2016 at 9:03 pm
No question this is a bad time…but it’s not the worst era of Buccaneers football.
This franchise went 11 (ELEVEN!!) straight seasons with double digit losses in the 80s-90s.
THAT was the worst era. The last decade has been pretty close though.
January 3rd, 2016 at 9:17 pm
Anyone who thinks this is the worst era of Bucs football missed the Leeman Bennett, Ray Perkins, Richard Williamson years.

you do not know what u are talking about!

The Glazers have been in last place for 87% of their time running the team. It’s not quite Culverhouse but it’s damn close. First time ever with 5 DFLs in a row. Says a lot.
January 3rd, 2016 at 9:35 pm
The Joes must not have been around in the 80’s. Those 11 straought double digit losing years were the worst
January 3rd, 2016 at 9:38 pm
Fire Lovie
January 3rd, 2016 at 9:47 pm
FIRELOVIE- Promote Koetter or give him an honest interview for the opp…..
January 3rd, 2016 at 10:25 pm
I wouldn’t hire Koetter, the last 4 weeks the offense hasn’t looked good
January 3rd, 2016 at 11:02 pm
Worst winning percentage all time by an NFL franchise. 75 or so fewer wins than the Seahawks, who came into the NFL the same year.
January 4th, 2016 at 12:22 am
But they never finished in the basement five years in a row. NFL record.
January 4th, 2016 at 5:39 am
Lovie preaches takeaways. Well he succeeded.
He took all the joy away from watching Bucs football.
January 4th, 2016 at 11:33 am
Wow someone actually married dallasbuc. She must have been drunk
January 4th, 2016 at 11:45 am
I HEARD THAT LOVIE WILL BE FIRED , GOT IT FROM THE PRESS…….
January 4th, 2016 at 12:04 pm
Fire the Glazers. We need new ownership.
