OT: Official 2021 Tompa Bay Gronkaneers Thread

[Ice_Ice_Brady]

I was just going through recent MVP voting and saw 2009... lol

Manning 39.5 votes
Brees 7.5 votes
Rivers 2 votes
Favre 1 vote

 

[Lagaffe_07]

Yeah now that I think about it stepping back Arians made a big mistake saying that. I would of said to the media something along the lines of "we are looking into it and will make a decision" instead of that definite statement

Arians says a lot of dumb things.

good for him. I hope (but doubt) other voters think this way. not just for that reason though because there are too many reasons to list where Brady is actually the true MVP other than just being an idiot and looking blindly at passer rating and TD/INT ratio

Someone a couple of weeks ago maybe sb1 had mentioned that they thought some voters may not vote for Rodgers because of his behavior this past off season and obviously lying about his vaccination status. That looks to be true at least for this voter and he did say that there were others that felt the way he did too. So who knows. But it certainly helps Brady that at least this guy feels that way.

I do wonder if the Bucs thinking is:

-AB‘s fit during the game may be complicated by injury, and it might be a mess with the NFLPA.

-If he doesn’t show for practice, he has unequivocally broken a rule, so whatever suspension/release at that point has clear cause and effect.

Or, maybe they are indeed reconsidering.

Licht is a pretty savvy GM. I don't think there is any way that AB gets released. I think they pay him for this week and then sit him for the post season.

then why the hell did Brady want him on the Bucs? If he cares so much for Brown, why didn’t he tell him to hang up his cleats before things got worse? So he can pad his ring total? Brown’s CTE issues have been known for a while. It’s not like they suddenly appeared. Gimme a break…

You’re such a fu.cki.ng idiot

I completely agree, as I said before, that BA was too reactionary when he talked about AB and possibly on the bench. That doesn't change the fact that the way AB left was ridiculous but being reactionary like that limits your options. Not being careful with how you treat you lunatic #1 WR also had a price. People can be emotional and just **** on AB which is 100% fine but it doesn't get results. Always let things cool down and then let your captains tell you how it is in the locker room and go from there. He's too good. The world is not fair.

I saw some fans saying Bucs players liked his post and it reminded me of the Pats players liking Butler’s post after SB52

People who are obsessed with celebrities tend to score lower on measures of cognitive ability

"Our results also support previous findings showing that excessive behaviors such as celebrity worshiping can possibly impair cognitive functioning, presumably due to the increased focus and energy invested in this behavior that becomes dominant in the individual’s life."

Manning was great in 2009. No different than Brady winning the MVP in 2017 and this happened...

Interesting. I mean everyone knows you're a clown. But interesting you bring up a game where Brady never punted all game and put up the most SB passing yards ever. In a game when the Pats defense benched their best CB and made 4 secondary players all play out of position all game. You are a total clown

Do you really want to know what the main board thinks of you? I've gotten PMs from people about you but whatever.

In any event, my point is that Manning deserved the MVP in 2009 just because he made a costly mistake in the SB that year. Same deal with Brady in 2017.

That's completely unfair. Clowns are far more respectable then this schmuck and they don't deserve that level of association

They practice today at 10:50 EST. We will see. The beat reporters all say he's gone though so might be your first two points that are true.

The beat reporters for the most part are clowns. The Pats are so lucky to have Reiss, he's actually all about the job. It would be hilarious if he showed up for practice but wasn't he in NY watching NBA games? He doesn't strike me as a dude that will apologize or make the first move. Just IR him. I really don't see what the issue would be with IR since he's got an ankle.

Im 99.99 percent sure he's played his last down in Tampa. They probably want another reason to suspend him and keep him off the playoff teams. One reporter has said they are teams interested in him

I believe that is what will happen but there is a timing issue. They probably have to wait for him not to show in order to avoid issues with the PA. It is fortunate in some ways that this happened right at the end of the season so they have options on how to basically retire him from the season without cutting him.

I won't got 99% but for sure it's the most likely outcome but why not IR? Why suspend him at all? Am I missing something with the rule? He can fight both but seems to me IR is the quieter option. He could argue a suspension all day long and possibly even claim that the Bucs cut him last Sunday on national TV so whys how up for practice. It just seems so loud and distracting to suspend him.

This is pretty awesome. Only took the GOAT 2 seasons to be the best QB in Bucs history.

Anyone could do it because it's a super team. Brady is a hack.
