El Presidente Posted January 12 Posted January 12 You know I have been a lifelong Bucs fan since their winless first season. That was one of my favourites. 😉 We come up against Kens Commanders in the play-offs. Not sure he will be there but join me over a cigar and a tipple Prediction. Daniels 37 Mayfiled 30. Two great stories. Will be fun to watch 2
BigGuns Posted January 12 Posted January 12 IN. But hold on…if I’m reading that right, are you predicting the Bucs demise??? Pump your brakes. That’ll be a good game. Looking forward to watching it on delay with you 1
Ken Gargett Posted January 12 Posted January 12 to be honest, i suspect it is very unlikely i will be onboard. rob is correct. i don't play well with others in situations like this. last time i tried was a pub in the Hunter Valley where a winemaking friend and i joined a big crowd to watch the super rugby final - tragically, it involved the nsw team (we were, of course, in nsw at the time) and trust me, i dislike them as much as i dislike the cowgirls and the iggles, manspew and the English cricket team (okay, not quite as much as the English cricket team). so i had to swallow my pride and support their kiwi opponents. it did not take long before i was ejected and forced to join half a dozen kiwis, mid winter, watching through a window. bastards. fortunately, nsw got thumped. i would have worn crusader face paint if i had any. i am sad to report i predict the same score as the first round. we have improved, so has tampa. i think that was a 37-20 loss? the only team to beat us all season by more than one score and if anyone had offered any Washington fan that before the season, we'd have fallen over ourselves to grab it. scary terry simply needs more support, we need a running game, other than the QB, we need to be able to stop their running game, which is something we have shown zero ability to do. and if Lattimore goes down, then the crowd announcer will be asking if any commanders fan brought their gear because they would be a better option than the muppets we have as back ups. on Lattimore, i predict he and Evans will be ejected. evans for blatant thuggery and appalling behaviour. Lattimore for mistaken identity. whatever happens, what an amazing season. already looking forward to the off-season (keen to see what it is like to support a team where players actually want to go to play, not have to be bribed with massive overpayments, and then only the over-the-hill hasbeens accept) and especially next year, when expectations will be skyhigh. 2

BigGuns Posted January 12 Posted January 12 Just now, Ken Gargett said: why on delay? Hoping the problem has been fixed since then, but when we would watch SNF games together a couple years ago, you fellas in OZ would have a reaction to something I wouldn’t see for another 10-15 seconds. It was thrilling….”WTF just happened????”……………..OOOOOOOHHHHH!!!!

El Presidente Posted January 12 Author Posted January 12 I will be comfortable if Bucs can square the first half. They are (sadly), a second half team. Bring it on
Chas.Alpha Posted January 12 Posted January 12 The phenomenon takes place at my house. The tv in the bedroom shows the game about 5-8 seconds sooner than the Tele in the living room. I think it has to do with what satellite transponder each tv is receiving. (HD vs. HDMI or some such)

MrBirdman Posted January 13 Posted January 13 I respect your decision Ken, it’s hard enough for me to watch a playoff game with other Eagles fans.

JermzCC Posted January 13 Posted January 13 2 hours ago, KCCubano said: Best game of the three so far. As a Steelers fan it hurts that this is true.
MrBirdman Posted January 13 Posted January 13 What a great game. Sorry Rob and any other Bucs fans, congrats Ken.
Ken Gargett Posted January 13 Posted January 13 it was a cracking game. certainly the most enjoyable of the weekend to date (not just because of the result). i could say it was never in doubt, that had the zebras not duded us with dodgy calls including that no holding in the end zone and so on but i would not like to seem churlish. but seriously, just once, could we possibly win a game comfortably? i''m too old for this endless last play crap. that is seven games this year won on the last snap for us. those sort of streaks rarely continue. most of all, without a running game that is not all on our QB, we are not going further. still, i think every Washington fan would be over the moon with this season, even if this it.
Ken Gargett Posted January 13 Posted January 13 one last thing - even a dinky little field goal we have to make heart attack material. off the post? spare me. i did think that if we could not control evans we'd get a hiding. we couldn't and somehow still managed to stumble over the line. 1
alloy Posted January 13 Posted January 13 DOINK! The sound of a WIN! Bring on them pussy cats! HTTR!!! 1

It has been a helluva season for you guys. Getting slime ball Dan out does wonders I guess. (oh and I guess a stud rookie QB) 😆 I look forward to seeing you guys this coming Saturday. My Motor City Kitties better be ready; we've struggled against mobile QBs this season so I expect this game to be closer than the seed lines suggest. Ford Field will be rocking nonetheless.
anacostiakat Posted January 13 Posted January 13 Only road win wild card team win so far. Gonna be really really tough to win in Detroit. But this magical season continues. From last year thru this year it sure has been one hellof a ride. Ken is right. As a life long fan it is hard to even define. Heh.
