Quite a fun game though.

That Bucs stadium looks a hoot.

I wouldn’t mind teeing up a Bucs / Saints road trip.

Do it mate. I went last year for the first time vs Detroit and had an amazing time. Seen them play at other stadiums before but never at home. Followed them since 95 so it was rather surreal. The pirate ship is wicked, actually the whole stadium is beautiful. If you do head to Tampa, pm me and I will tell you where to go for $20 all you can eat and drink tailgating.

Haha, eat a "w". Did you see the look on the other players faces. Like what the f**k is this guy doing?

To be fair on Fitz, he wasn’t getting as much protection in the first half as he was in the first 2 games. If somene told be we would be 2-1 without Winston after playing NO, Philly, Pit, I would have taken it every day of the week. We didn’t play well in the first half but only lost by 3.

Will do mate.

I remembered your posts from last year.

I was slyly selling it during the game today to the missus and my girls (home on school holidays).

The cannons, the smack-talking parrot etc. The fireworks looked the tits as well.


How is the rest of Tampa? I’m presuming it close to Orlando? For all the shit that’s there? Is Miami worth a look? With/without kids? Any suggestions?

Orlando is all about the kids. I honestly prefer florida to cali, well orlando to LA (LA is a f**king shitbox). All the disney theme parks plus universal studios. Disneys Animal Kingdom is wicked for the kids (has an amazing avatar world as well). Tampa is a nice city, only about 1hour drive from
Orlando. Ybor is an area with heaps of bars and eaterys. There’s also Busch Gardens (think Simpsons Duff gardens). NY yankees have their training facility in Tampa for the
Winter.

I have never been to Miami so I can’t comment.

My overall advice, especially if you’re a saints fan, is to go over to the east coast and do the sights and take the family to florida and NO. Even as a divisionsl rival, you’ll still love going down to Tampa for a game, the fans are pretty chilled so it’s a great atmosphere.

I would move to Tampa if I could, that’s how much I love it there.

looks like talib might be done for the season. he will need surgery on his ankle. he's old. doesn't look good.

the dream of having two shutdown corners on the outside is finished after 2 games. the model is broken.

Just forfeit the season, save the heartbreak.

Boohoo. My team has already lost 4 starters for the year including our two best defensive players

That's actually a potentially fatal blow... that defense is soft up the middle at LB and S, and weak on the edges at the pass rush... the thing they need is outside corners to hold it all together...

i mean it may not matter because the rams could just outscore everyone if their D falls apart. But they maybe only 1 more major injury to Peters or Donald from being a pretty ordinary defensive unit

Yep. Booger McFarlane used to do a lot of the SEC commentary. Very good analyst. Always a good laugh on Finebaum Pretty sure he won a Super Bowl with the Bucs and Colts.

He’s also got a busted finger that puts Bryan Fletcher’s to shame.

I’ve noticed blokes with fingers like that love showing them off. They start waving them around more than Italian mime-artists.

I'm pretty sure the rams backups are better than the Steelers starters. No heartbreak there.

Joe Haden's pretty good when he's on the field + we've won 2 Super Bowls since your last with Ike Taylor on one side and a numpty on the other, there's hope for us both.

after 3 weeks of the season the rams have had a grand total of one drive that ended 3 and out. and that was the first drive of the game against the raiders. pretty much their preseason drive.

you know what that means, they'll probably have 10 of them this week.
