Big Day For Bucs Brass

February 25th, 2020

“Jason, should I tell the media today about the time you and I stuck Steve Keim with a $200 bar tab at Kilroys? He probably found a way to put the bill on Mike Bidwill’s AMEX Platinum, anyway.”

Bucs AC/DC-loving general manager Jason Licht breaks his 10-month silence today.

Licht has not spoken on the record to any group of local reporters since his wrap-up press conference following the end of the 2019 draft 10 months ago. At high noon today, Licht will step up to a podium at the Indiana Convention Center and face the NFL media as a whole.

Licht will later do a media car wash, including a sitdown with the local pen and mic club. Arians is expected to do the same. Arians is scheduled to speak at 11 a.m.

So stay tuned to JoeBucsFan.com all day for loads of Bucs information coming. Arians and Licht surely will be peppered with questions concerning the future status of Mr. Entertainment, America’s Quarterback, Pro Bowler Jameis Winston. The duo will be asked about other key free agents as well, including Bucs sack king Shaq Barrett, Demar Dotson, Breshad Perriman, Jason Pierre-Paul, Ndamukong Suh and others.

Big day of Bucs news today. Prepare to belly up to the bar.

    Prediction. They won’t say anything of substance.

  2. Ndog Says:

    Anyone that thinks they are going to say anything is insane. So in other words SteveK is going to hang on every word.

  3. Shaq's Missing 1/2 Sack Says:

    Don’t expect they will let much out of the bag sadly. We will still be speculating until the pens hit the paper while signing those contracts/offers.

  4. Theodore Says:

    Ask him what kind of tree he would be!

  5. #1 Pick QB 2 Cent Brain Says:

    Zero news will be said

    Just filler commentary and Joe reading into every comment to find meaning where there is none as there is not much going on in Licht’s brain

  6. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Finally! Some real misdirection!

  7. Dreghost Says:

    @joebucsfan
    We know there will be a lot of smokescreens today, but by chance can someone please ask him how he feels about our secondary

  8. Allbuccedup Says:

    So glad Jason Licht is still here I really enjoy not going to the playoffs. This time of year is great for perennial losers you look to the draft and pray for help.

  9. Cannuckbuc Says:

    let the smoke screen FINALLY begin !!!!

    Good morning, sunshine !🌞

    How are you doing on this fine day? I hope your week is going well.

    If your definition of “insane” or “clueless” is to award of the historical
    Data that says the team that wins the turnover margin wins the game 70% of the time, then count me in.

    On the contrary, I consider you to be #turnover blind. It’s really humorous to me.

    Can’t wait to see how it all shakes out.

    I intend to argue with facts, and you choose to hurl insults. I forgive you, bc I consider you to be irrational and unable to form a debate based on facts.

    Thanks,

    SteveK

  11. SteveK Says:

    Is to be aware of the historical data*

    Sorry, should’ve proof read.

  12. Bucsfanman Says:

    “let the smoke screen FINALLY begin !!!!”

    LOL! Well done! Coffee spewed!

  13. QBKilla Says:

    A smoke screen with plenty of mirrors. We won’t know much until March 10th.

  14. ATrain Says:

    NDog please have your psychiatrist on stand by

  15. Hodad Says:

    Ask him why it took Mr. Magoo so long to get his eyes fixed? Ask him why he couldn’t wear prescription goggles before then? Ask him if he puts his pants on one at a time, or if he tries to hop in both at once.

  16. LazyMoak Says:

    They have been practicing with each other what they will not say

  17. Morgus the Magnificent Says:

    Gee Joe….all I said was “prediction…they’ll say nothing” and it gets run??

  18. PSK Bucs Fan Says:

    Smoke time!

  19. NPRSageBoy. Says:

    Joe – you must have meant Mr. Reckless, America’s Turnover Machine, JayMiss Winnone

    It has a more accurate ring to it.

    Peace, out

  20. RagingBrisket Says:

    If you want to know how everyone in the front office and coaching staff likes their coffee then definitely ask Jason Licht. If you want to know anything meaningful about this football team then you better ask anyone else that works there.

  21. Dusthty Rhothdes Says:

    First question should be: “Jason why do you think the bucs have been so bad during your tenure as GM?”

  22. D-Rome Says:

    Thanks Joe. Will be looking forward to the updates today. That said, 70% of what BA and the backstabber say is going to be lies and half-truths.

  23. LazyMoak Says:

    The photo looks like someone in the press fell for the ole pull my finger joke

  24. Morgus the Magnificent Says:

    I’m sure they’ll tell the truth, nothing but the truth, so help them God.

  25. TOM EDRINGTON Says:

    10 months? This guy has had adequate time to rehearse Saying Nothing of substance….

  26. BrianBucs Says:

    I know what time of year it is and everything that they have going on, but hopefully Licht and Arians will be honest and forthright and not just give vague and beat around the bush answers.
    I’m sure they have had their meeting with the Glazers and the PR department and have their answers scripted out.

  27. TOM Says:

    I see nothing. I hear nothing. I say nothing.

  28. martinii Says:

    I admit I have never been a big Jason Licht fan and BA is still in my “Prove It,” year. They appear in the photo above to have that “Sticks and Stones,” expression on their faces, in other words over the next two months we are going to pick Free Agents, Draft Picks, UDFA’s, possibly Trades, and mold the Buc’s into whatever we want with the resources available. Theres not a Dam thing anyone posting, texting, bitching, or standing there with their panties in a wad can do or say. And guess what, “The Glazers are going to pay us good money to do it! (Sticks and Stones) P.S. Ha, Ha, Ha…………

  29. Pewter power Says:

    First question should be: “Jason why do you think the bucs have been so bad during your tenure as GM?”

    Answer because the quarterback cant stop throwing the ball away at key moments in games.

  30. JP_09 Says:

    Tell me the Bucs aren’t going to draft a QB, they’re even interviewing Princeton’s QB lol, guess they figure he’s smart enough not to throw the ball to the opponent

    EASON @ 14 get over it

  31. Allbuccedup Says:

    What’s BA doing picking his nose and JL picking his a__.

  32. BFB Bucs Says:

    Please he is not entertaining throwing pics and not Americas QB

  33. LazyMoak Says:

    58 days of this and more

  34. SteveK Says:

    I hope we draft a QB.

    Let Jameis test the market. No shot in hell he gets a $30
    Million salary.

  35. Bucemup Says:

    What if Bruce says, “we’re going after Brady” and then drops the mic and walks off. Hahaha

  36. SteveK Says:

    That would be baller af.

    Ppl that are “ballin’” don’t proclaim and announce it. They just do it. Hence Jameis’ whacky ass end of season statement. He is turnover blind even after lasik.

  37. TampaTown Says:

    Joe could ask him if the Bucs are going to announce their decision on Jameis before the season ticket payment due date in approximately two weeks? Can you ask him how they expect season ticket holders to renew without knowing whether Jameis is going to be here or to expect another 5 year setback?

  38. View from 132 Says:

    All we really want to know is… are the Bucs going to be orange again or not?

  39. Cobraboy Says:

    So it begins: Liars Poker Season.

    Believe nothing.

    Don’t get snookered.

  40. ModHairKen Says:

    It’s going to be like porn in 480p resolution

  41. Joe in Michigan Says:

    Okay, we get it:

    Dusty Chode hates Jason Licht.

    tmaxcon hates the Glazers, Licht, Dungy, Dotson, and McCoy.

    SteveK hates Jameis.

    Do you have to post it every day?

  42. Cobraboy Says:

    And so it begins: Liar’s Poker Season.

    And amateur GM’s swallow every drop.

  43. Cobraboy Says:

    Someone should ask Arians: “Which player makes you swear the most?”

  44. Pick6King Says:

    Joe and the other nut huggers only saving grace is Jason Licht. He’s just dumb enough to keep Jamoist Winston, Mr No playoffs, America’s turnover machine, Pro Bowl alternate due to injury, in a Bucs uniform.

    Even one more year is too long. BA said we would not beat ourselves this coming season. That starts with moving on from the failed #1 over all pick. While you’re at it, send Gump packing as well. The Aguyo incident alone should have cost him his job. #NoPlayoffs

  45. AlteredEgo Says: Your comment is awaiting moderation. Says:

    BA& Jason Lite will have a viable backup to Jameis….to protect their own backsides….

  46. Tampa Native Says:

    Maybe these clowns should spend less time at the bar and more time fixing the Bucs.

  47. SteveK Says:

    Joe in Michigan,

    I hate turnovers and being insulted by Jameis/FSU fans that claim to be Buc fans. I hate denying the historical data of turnover margin and sweeping it under the rug to justify another post year with a QB who is reckless. I don’t like being lied to by the folks that are turnover blind.

    I hate not being in the playoffs, and I’m embarrassed each year we are talking draft by Halloween.

    The last press conference showed no remorse. Winston can go. He can be someone else’s losing QB bc nobody is winning with those turnovers.

    I’m sorry that you think it’s hate, but it’s not. I supported Jameis when drafted and bought his jersey. I still wear it and cheer for him. I just set my expectations to laugh at him QBing the team, like I’m watching a comedy or three stooges.

    If we had a QB that didn’t turn it over, we’d be in business.

  48. Joe in Michigan Says:

    SteveK: I was joking. I understand your (and others) frustrations, winning will be the only cure for all of our frustrations.
