I still scratch my head over how the Buccaneers wind up on our dance card as the last pre-season game every year. I mean, Dallas and New Orleans I understand but what do we have in common with Tampa?

but what do we have in common with Tampa?The Gulf coast?

The idea of 'don't break what works?' An NFC opponent somewhat geographically close (as opposed to say the Seahawks or 49ers)?

Eh, I choose not to be bothered by the 4th preseason game, outside of having to pay full ticket prices for the home game, of course.

Is St. Louis closer than Tampa?
