Chucky Goes To Italy

March 13th, 2024

“Derek, I’m going to have some decent pasta for a change. Tired of all this #$@ damned Cajun seasoning.”

This is one way to chase Chucky out of the NFC South.

In the past year, the Bucs’ first Super Bowl-winning coach, Chucky, had been working with the slimy Saints as an offensive advisor of former Raiders quarterback Derek Carr.

Joe thought Chucky would be named as the slimy Saints’ offensive coordinator. That didn’t happen. Instead, Chucky is bolting to Italy. There, he will be an advisor for the American football team the Milan Seamen.

(Heh-heh, heh-heh. He said ‘Seamen.’)

So Chucky goes to Italy. To basically run a football team. What exactly might that do for international relations? Joe can only guess.

At the very worst, the Italians are going to learn a very colorful dialect of the Americanized king’s English.

What is it about ex-Bucs and Italian football? In recent months, former Bucs quarterback and Tom Brady wingman Ryan Griffin played for the Vaerese Skorpians.

No, Griffin didn’t play with the Scorpions! But that would have been cool.

    Very Cool. Scrambling to YouTube to find Ryan Griffin footage. Always thought he might be good.

  2. Tbbucs3 Says:

    Pro Football over in Europe is growing and I encourage any Bucs fans who are bored with nothing but women’s college basketball on TV to check it out….

    Good for Gruden taking on a unique opportunity without all the BS he’s endured recently

  3. J Says:

    Milan must be nice this time if year.

  4. Pickgrin Says:

    LOL – “The Milano Seamen”. Like adding the “A” makes it sound better somehow

    This is just weird…

    But yea – if it gets Gruden away from helping Carr and the Aints – its all good.

    Kinda sounds like another weird Jennifer Tilly movie sequel with a twist –
    “Chucky goes to Italy – Advises Seamen to ‘shoot the Tight End gap’ to avoid unwanted risk…”

    From Superbowl to seamen

    Lmao Joe, what’s the over under for comments before you shut them down with inappropriate jokes?

  7. German Buc Says:

    Yeah, Tbbucs3, it is indeed growing. But to be frank, there’s a significant gap in quality of play. So if you watch with adjusted expectations you are going to like it. The top teams are Rhein Fire (hate to admit, but they won last year), Stuttgart Surge and Frankfurt Galaxy. You find extended highlights of ‘ELF Championship Game 2023’ on YouTube.

    Drinking a few Big Storms and watching the EuroBall would be cool, especially if Chucky is providing some Color commentary.

    Well Chuckie did bank away a ton of coin from MNF as well as the Raiders before Goodell and his goon squad got him launched from the NFL so he can probably do whatever he wants. I do hope that his lawsuit does reveal who in the NFL decided to select a handful of e-mails out of thousands and thousands to send to the WSJ to get him run out of Vegas.

    German Buc, I looked over the general rules for the European League of Football and it looks similar to Korean baseball in that clubs are limited in the number of American players they have on their roster (4?) and the salaries look to be similar to minor league baseball, topping out at $3500 a month or so. Anyhow, good luck to Chuckie, glad he is not the coach in waiting in New Orleans after Allen gets launched. Interesting league, clubs from Hungary and Poland in the east to Paris, Madrid and Barcelona in the west.

    You know once upon a time sticks and stones would break my bones, but names would never hurt me. How times have changed. These days what one says can be much worse than what one does. Just ask the chuckster.

  11. Hodad Says:

    How do you say Spider 2 Y banana in Italian?

  12. Fred Says:

    How do I watch Gruden’s team? I’m a big fan of his and would really like to follow his team’s progress.

  13. Lt. Dan Says:

    I for one wasn’t afraid of Gruden prowling the Saints sidelines. More like amused. I’m pretty sure the game has passed him by.

  14. Irishmist Says:

    If you think his play call verbiage is complicated now, wait until it’s translated into Italian.

  15. Eckwood Says:

    Should have stayed on Mon Night …… nothing but a clown show , the Saints prob paid to fly him over .
    Only person alive with an ego bigger than the Donald !!
    Just to be clear both are better than ole Joe 🍺

  16. DoooshLaRue Says:

    I hear they’re gonna play the Milan Man Chowders to open the season.
    Those guys are gonna play with a lot of spunk.
    It’s gonna be a real Jizz Fest.

  17. Lt. Dan Says:

    Disgusting Doosh…

  18. TomBucsFan Says:

    Gruden did nothing wrong

    Yeah – I wonder why the Bucs didn’t give him a regular season game to ‘see what he has’….

  20. BA’s Red Pen Says:

    Milan Seamen would be a great landing spot for Trask as well.

  21. ModHairKen Says:

    Now playing the role of Ryan Griffin, Kyle Trask.

  22. Cobraboy Says:

    Sounds like a fun gig.

    I wonder if he saw Ted Lasso…

  23. Jay B Says:

    Equivalent of an old rock band playing a casino in the sticks. Pretty pitiful tbh

  24. T. McGee Says:

    Don’t make fun of the team name… semen from Italy is how I got here!

  25. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    T. McGee, lol.

    I imagine the name means something else entirely to them.

    I have friends in Manchester to do not know what a potato chip is…they call them crisps.

  26. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Australia has some really funny language ticks too.
