Waiting.

So the Bucs initially hoped to resume practice Tuesday. We’ll see.

As Hurricane Irma had its sights set on Florida last week when the Bucs learned they had an unexpected bye week, Bucs players in the locker room were furiously trying to book flights out of town, to go anywhere to dodge Irma.

In fact, Team Glazer found four planes to get some players, football staffers, team front office personnel and their families to North Carolina to escape Irma.

But per California train-romancing, anti-football proliferation, outhouse-admiring, airline-napping, steerage-flying, Yogi Berra-worshiping, urinal picture-taking, video game-playing, Taylor Swift-listening, pickpocket-thwarting, Bucs-uniform-frowning, Allie-LaForce-smitten, Big-Ten-Network-hating, pedestrian-bumping, olive oil-lapping, popcorn-munching, coffee-slurping, fried-chicken-eating, oatmeal-loving, circle-jerking, craft beer-chugging, cricket-watching, scone-loathing, college football-naïve, baseball-box-score-reading, NPR-honk, filthy-hotel-staying, fight-instigating, barista-training Peter King of Sports Illustrated and NBC Sports fame, winning Bucs coach Dirk Koetter, along with a few other coaches, stayed behind at One Buc Palace.

Many of his players are scattered throughout the country. Trying to get home won’t be an easy task.

Several players had return flights for Monday. Problem is, Tampa International Airport is closed today but is scheduled to reopen Tuesday. But as anyone who has traveled much can tell you once a flight is canceled, getting a flight the next day when thousands are also trying to return to Florida is no easy task.

Koetter told King players raced out of the area as far as California but he has been in contact with “95 percent” of the roster. Schedule for the team is “TBD.”

To be determined.
