Boycott Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Page 2 of Arkansas Democrat Gazette Sports section. Daily column called second thoughts.

No link

Beating up on Clinton continues
Bucs signed Darrel Russell, 2 time drug offender. Suspended 4 games in 2001 for failing to comply w/NFL drug policy. While suspended, tested positive for banned substance. Suspended 1 year. During that time, charged w/drugging woman and videotaping sexual assault by 2 friend. 25 (twenty-five!) felony counts dropped for lack of evidence.

Signed by Bucs for league minimum for veteran players.

Here's the bombshell

TB GM, BRUCE ALLEN, whose brother is a Repuke senator from Virginia, said, and I quote, "BILL CLINTON DID A LOT WORSE THINGS THAN DARRELL RUSSELL, BUT HE WON FLORIDA TWICE AND WAS OUR PRESIDENT. I KNOW HE DID. HE DID WORSE THINGS."

WTF does that have to do with football

Hate TB anyway. But this is an all-time low.

On a positive note, I applaud the Tampa Bay Schmucaneers for their policy of hiring criminals and the mentally handicapped in on field and front office positions.

This weeks extra chromosome award goes to the Tampa Bay Schmucaneers with a special dry cleaning bag to GM Bruce Allen.

3. Son of George Allen
former Redskins coach and Nixon boot licker.

I'm sorry that one of my favorites, Chris Simms, could be starting at signal caller for this criminal racketeering organization.

4. Any team with that fuckwad Warren Sapp deserves to be delisted
Looks like his career is ending careers.

5. Sapp signed with Oakland.
And frankly he was a great player until last year.

7. Letting John Lynch go turned many against Gruden.
He is a long-time favorite of everyone here. The guy was in tears. He wanted to finish his career here. Gruden is losing hearts and minds quickly.
