The upcoming Bucs game, 11/13/2011

I'm touched by all the attempts to keep me at home instead of spending my money but I kinda enjoy the social interaction although it does suck when you have to watch with no sound. Then again, with some announcers, it's a blessing to watch with no sound.

I can't for the life of me understand why anyone would listen to the jackoffs they have on TV rather than the team's radio broadcast. Andre's insights are great and they focus on OUR team, not both teams or something else entirely like Al Davis or where to get the best cheesesteak in Philadelphia or who knows what.

Not surprising, or unexpected, but Dre is officially out for the game.

Here's to hoping he comes back strong for the stretch run.

Sad about Dre. I have a feeling he could really make a difference at TB. Oh well.

Yup, he certainly could. However, if we get him in good rested shape when we make the play off push I think that is more important. Manning should also be back and the other nicks and injuries should be better. As long as Schaub doesn't get injured I think we are stacking up well for a good push.

I just hope Andre doesn't have a reinjury upon return, because I'm having difficulty sharing everybody elses optimism that after a short time back he's his old self again. I think this injury is more serious and more complicated and recovery more uncertain than we've been led to believe ?

I've got some of the same thoughts, as this "time saving" surgery appears to be a "season saving" surgery.

It does prove, yet again, anything and everything coaches, players, and local mouthpieces are nothing more than flat BS. I know better, but I continue to get sucked into to coachspeak.
