[NorvilleBarnes]

Wow - the crowd in the stands looks really deflated.

going in the Skins thread for Capella to see.

Took me a second to get this.

 

[mad sweeney]

If these clowns do an emotional sign off again today, even though they did it all last week, I'm going to actually vomit.

don't like either team, but I bet on the Skinsnot like I'm reading your PMs or something here. if you wanted privacy, perhaps the game thread isn't the best place for you.

I've been to Tampa many times and have relatives down there. I'm told the number is pretty high, and I think Capella has even admitted this fact before.

I don't think very many That's a very regional team.

They started improving in the late 90s, but they were horrible before then. Here is their percentage of seats filled each year, and keep in mind that these numbers are a bit inflated because they don't have a huge stadium to fill.Year

1983 69.2%

1984 63.5%

1985 52.2%

1986 53.9%

1987 58.4%

Just because interest was "sparked" by, oh say, WINNING for the first time in their existence, doesn't mean those are bandwagon fans. Bandwagon fans are Cowboys fans who can't find Dallas on a map.

I'm talking about the type of people who couldn't name 5 different Buccaneers players. I think they exist in high numbers down there.

sorry to let you down :(

I seriously don't understand the "hopping boxes" commercial. :shuked:

 

[fatness]

Redskins have 78 yards of offense, Bucs have 127 at the half. Anybody who thinks this game is over is silly.

THIS GAME IS OVER!HALF OVER!

 

[redman]

The Bucs looked good making those short, quick passes in that last drive even though it resulted in a punt.

On the plus side for the 'Skins, the defense has come to play, and in particular is getting pressure at key times, they're covering the WR's very well deep, and Moss looks like he's getting opportunities deep.

My concerns/questions:

What's wrong with Portis?

Why aren't they throwing to Cooley more?

 

[jwvdcw]

The announcers just said that Gibbs is undefeated when going into the 2nd half with a lead They had to mean "in the playoffs", right?

Not sure if that qualifies as bandwagon fans. Were they fans of another team before the Bucs got good? Please conduct a poll and get back to me.Maybe they just didn't look good in dreamsicle-orange.

This game is a long way from over, Skins fans have had their heart ripped out and stepped on too many times before.

Yes, 12-0 in postseason.

 

[NorvilleBarnes]

Good question.

 

[MeVsMaradona]

3 and out, portis hurt.

 

[MeVsMaradona]

Mark Jones to the 50

Lovely....can Joe Theismann come down and punt for us?

I'm saying they weren't even football fans (tough to blame them with how bad the Bucs were I guess), but then hopped on the Bucs bandwagon when they started winning. Once the team starts losing again, they will be nowhere to be found. That qualifies as a bandwagon fan, no?

 

[Johnny Ice]

Redskins punter hurt.

Poked in the eye, that's all.

 

[jwvdcw]

Redskins have 78 yards of offense, Bucs have 127 at the half. Anybody who thinks this game is over is silly.

The Redskins also had Moss open twice for TDs and made bad throws(one by Brunell, one by Portis). This game could be 28-3 right now.

that punt returner is never going to live it down

btw, I simply asked a question here. you lived there. do you think the number is low?

Live what down? The fact that he kept the returner from breaking it outside for a possible TD?

Maybe You said it yourself, hard to blame them

A little presumptuous to say they would be nowhere to be found... they sucked last year but people still showed up. I think it just took a little spark to gain local interest. That team was the joke of the NFL my entire life until around 1999.

he said the punt returner, not the punter.TB moving well here.

 

[hammerva]

Right now Redskins have the same feeling about their lead as I did about my WVU Mountaineers lead against Georgia.

 

[Portis 26]

For those of an IDP slant, Arrington's line currently reads:T-A: 6-2INT: 1FF: 1Which is an absolutely stellar performance. Any chance he's kept around for next season by the Skins? Or is he gone?

 

[NorvilleBarnes]

Some of us have been fans since the '70s. Tough years - decades.
