I have great news for you.

Lol. I watched zero football last night. So, I suppose this is good? No? Yes? Yes? No?

With those two, I wish they'd both lose, but oh well. I'll take it.

And thanks for not rubbing in my ignorance. :(

We also need to win vs the Jags Sunday to win the division against the Saints the following week
That’s not accurate. Tie breaker is conference record which we currently hold a two game lead on NO.
No matter what, if we beat NO next week, we win the division.
It goes Division Record then Common Opponents and then Conference Record.

I don't know where it stands with Common Opponents at this point.

None of the teams the Bucs have defeated now have a winning record. The Jags have a winning record. Could be a first for this years Bucs if the defeat the Jags.

According to WDAE just now, Jags announce it is "better than 50/50" Lawrence starts this week.

I imagine you're a big fan of Trevor's. But more and more 2022 is looking like a fluke season. Baker has been better than him this season and I'd fear him way more if I were a Jags fan than I would TL as a Bucs fan.

Me, too. But he's also talented as hell so it's one of those situations where you just kind of look at it side-eye.

Edit: Do you know what it is? He's Top Gun Maverick. Do I want him on my team? Not really. Do I want him on the other team? Oh, hell no.

We are so fortunate to have this team. Possibly only the Browns have it better.

It's love. It's hate. It's comedy. It's tragedy. It's absurd. It's awesome. It's unexplainable. It'sepic. It's nonsense. It's a Bucs Life.

After reviewing the Steelers remaining schedule, this may well be Tomlin's first losing season.

Anytime someone references a movie that references the Navy’s quasi-dong loving (cough) ,membership it gets an upvote outta me.

This isn't even a discussion. Yet, at the same time, it deserves it's own thread.

While true I've always found anticipatory disappointment to be a loser's philosophy.

Take Gholston, who I love as a bucs fan. Not on the level of the top tier guys of the franchise, but that next tier with guys like Shelton Quarles and others. Guys who gave us great play over many years and have rightfully earned the adoration of fans imo.

Now take their careers, keep every single snap the same, all same stats, all same outcomes, but make them a first round picks. All of the sudden they are hated busts. That's ridiculous to me. 99.99% of their careers remain the same but you change one moment, one that they had NO CONTROL over, and the entire perspective shifts.

Because of anticipatory disappointment.

We still control our destiny with a loss Sunday. Problem is so do the Saints if we lose, so hopefully we get this done as quickly as possible.

Doubtful. Like with most of us here, they don't even know I exist. We are just a collective of 'fans' that follow them.

They listen to me, tell me who you want on the roster - I'll see if it's workable before I send it to Jason's webcrawling spider.
