I knew the Bucs would not win many games this year. But I didn’t expect them to be cover-your-eyes terrible. This is Ray Perkins level ineptitude. Tim Tebow returned for the Gators, not that he was really needed. Bobby Bowden’s chance to silence the growing furor over his future was squandered by Mickey Andrews’ defense. (more…)
For some reason, I just don’t have it in me this week. Just a few complaints and observations. And I don’t have the energy right now to run down the Bobby Bowden “affair”. I have an opinion, don’t be mistaken. I just don’t feel like writing it down just this second. So, please enjoy, and I’ll see you next week. (more…)
Tebow, bonked on the head. FSU bonked in the face. Penn State bonked (again) by Iowa. And Bucs fans once again bonked in the groinal region by their beloved team. Will the hurting ever stop? (more…)
New name, Thursday Afternoon Linebacker. I’m a late son-of-a-gun this week. Could the Bucs BE any worse? Depending on who you listen to, either the Gators held back because they were afraid of Monte Kiffin, or Lane held back because he wanted to stave off a blow-out by using ball control. Either way, the Florida-Tennessee collision was not a great game. (more…)
This is just a quick run down of the games I plan to enjoy this weekend. (more…)
Can you believe it? I have stuck with this thing for 5 years. What? No, it was a break. Yeah, that other one too. Look, it’s Elvis. Anyway. Officially, October 6th with mark the true 5 year anniversary of TALB. Thank you both for reading all these years. The very first full week of for-real football was a long one. Starting with the NC State-South Carolina snooze-fest to the scintillating FSU-Miami collision. I don’t know about you, but my butt was numb by the time it was over. (more…)
Glorious college football returns to our Saturdays today. I will be plopped in front of the DLP starting in just about 30 minutes for Gameday. And then throughout the day of surprising early-season match-ups.
I’m particularly looking forward to Georgia-Oklahoma State and Alabama-VT. The Oklahoma-BYU and Notre Dame-Nevada collisions are intriguing as well. And if our friends at Time Warner would subscribe to ESPN360, I could actually watch the Gators tonight. But alas it is not in the cards for me.
Feel free to comment throughout the day if you’re watching any of the games. And enjoy your tailgating for those of you going to a game.
