Tampa Bay Bucs Sign Paralyzed Former Rutgers Player In Goodwill Gesture
Eric LeGrand was a special teams player for Rutgers in October 2010, when he was paralyzed from the neck down after making a tackle against Army.

Why Can't Roger Goodell Go One Day Without Lying?
Let's go on a magical trip to the NFL's fantasy world, where the penalties on the Redskins and Cowboys have anything to do with football. Indulge them when they tell you that two teams spending more than a nonexistent salary cap in the uncapped 2010 season constituted "an unacceptable risk to future...
Tampa Radio Host Who Called NFL Free Agents "Monkeys" Is No Longer Tampa Radio Host
Dan Sileo, who responded to rumors of Jonathan Vilma, Cortland Finnegan, and Vincent Jackson coming to Tampa Bay with an excited "If they get those three monkeys, I'll be good," needs a new job. WDAE cut ties with Sileo today, a day after his remarks....

By Bolting For The Tampa Bay Bucs, Greg Schiano Is Fulfilling Rutgers's Football Dreams
Adam Schefter is reporting that Greg Schiano and the Buccaneers have reached terms on a five-year deal that makes Schiano Tampa Bay's next head coach.

This Is How Close Chip Kelly Was To Leaving Oregon To Coach The Tampa Bay Buccaneers
What you see above are two versions of this morning's front page of the Register-Guard of Eugene, Ore. No, that's not an error, nor is it a do-over on a report that wound up reaching the masses. A source told the newspaper last night that Kelly, 34-6 in three seasons as the University of Oregon's f...
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers Appear To Be Setting The Bar High In Their Coaching Search
Per Chris Mortensen, the Bucs will have an interview tomorrow with 68-year-old Marty Schottenheimer, who hasn't coached in the NFL since 2006. Guess they figure they have to reach the playoffs before they can lose in them. [via]...
And Now The Bucs Have Fired Raheem Morris
Morris, like Steve Spagnuolo, is to some extent a casualty of his team's unexpected success last year—the Bucs won ten games (playing a limp schedule), and presumably management thought the team would improve upon or at least equal that this year. Of course, the Bucs suck, and so they went 4-12, wit...
Albert Haynesworth Is The Worst
From Peter King: "Great note by @AdamSchefter: Bucs are 0-7 with Albert Haynesworth, Pats are 7-0 since waiving him." Three cheers for the disgruntled one!...
Deion Sanders To Tony Romo: "Who Gets In Your Butt?"

Tampa Bay FOX Affiliate Airs Unidentified Buccaneer Locker Room Dong
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers lost a heartbreaker yesterday to the Tennessee Titans, a 23-17 game thick with penalties, turnovers, and otherwise sloppy play.

Tampa Bay Will Take In Albert Haynesworth
ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that the Tampa Bay Bucs have claimed Albert Haynesworth just a day after the Patriots released him (sentimental Belichick: "It just didn't work out"). This is an experiment that is almost proven to fail by now, but perhaps the warm air will be good for him. [Twitter]...
