Brady, Bowles, and the Bucs on Top of the World

Tom Brady, Rob Gronkowski, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have won Super Bowl LV in convincing fashion. Bruce Arians and Todd Bowles had the game plan to contain Tyreek Hill and Patrick Mahomes that was executed to perfection. Jason Pierre-Paul and Shaq Barrett caused issues all night for the Kansas City offensive line making Mahomes run for his life most of the game. It’s another storybook ending for Tom Brady who is the greatest of all-time, and there’s not a close second. He is now 7/10 in Super Bowls. Brady commanded the game from the beginning. It was never really...

Super Bowl Week is Here

After a crazy, challenging year, the NFL did the inevitable, gave its fans a season to remember. There was no 12th man in Seattle or a single fan in the new $Billion SoFi Stadium in LA. But, the season went on, and week after week, it felt like society got a little more normal. Super Bowl week is here. It will look a little different. Fans are mandated to wear masks both indoors and outdoors in Tampa Bay this week. Only 20,000 fans will attend the Super Bowl making it the hardest Super Bowl stub to add to a collection....

Gronk the Great

Jason Licht urged anyone who is having a bad day to spend a day with Gronk (@carmieV). Well, DUH! Where do I sign up? Gronk is a hilarious human and at the end of the day, he will be considered one of the all-time great TE’s in NFL History. That’s a lot of take in for a 31 year old fresh off retirement. However, Gronk’s personality shines through always. He didn’t have a huge statistical year, but he did have a huge year in the locker room. Licht said in a statement that what Gronk has done for the locker...

Arians Uses Brass for Shot at Sterling Silver

Brass knuckles are used in street fighting to severely induce pain on an opponent.  They are a weapon that stuns the opponent upon impact.  On Sunday, we saw LeFleur settle for a FG late in the game leading to their MVP quarterback, Aaron Rodgers never seeing the football again, at home, in the NFC Championship.  We saw the Bills drive early in their game and settle for FG after FG, ultimately losing to the reigning Super Bowl MVP and Super Bowl Champions.  Not Bruce Arians.  Arians pulled out his own shiny brass set of “knuckles” on 4th and 3 at the end of the...

Rodgers, too Hopes to Play/Host Super Bowl

Tom Brady secured his 10th Super Bowl appearance on Sunday, this time, he will be playing at home.   Rodgers said he is unsure of his future, which I’m confident he says those things to screw with the media and give them no offseason. Ok, I’ll bite, OF COURSE Rodgers wants out of Green Bay.  He wants to play/host a Super Bowl before he retires.  Who wouldn’t?  One thing is for sure, Green Bay, WI will not be hosting a Super Bowl in February. It’s truly amazing what Brady has done.  He’s now won as many NFC Conference Titles as Brees and Rodgers.  He’s got TEN...
