Gee coach, what a novel idea. Explosive players, and nobody else's ever thought of that.

It might be hard to find. I mean it would have to be a red, pewter, black and orange couch. In this case I wouldn't recommend getting a La-Z-Boy!

Where should we put the couch? In the coach's office?

Well since their season is over...I guess redecorating the offices would be fun.

Wonder Woman, Wonder Woman.
All the world's waiting for you,
and the power you possess.

In your satin tights,
Fighting for your rights
And the old Red, White and Blue.

So thats where you got that bikini!

Ok, I do know I can't spell. But I also know that I haven't liked Chuckey since he got here. And he should be sent on his way. Sure hasn't done anything for our Bucs!

Sure he has done something. He broke apart a Superbowl team.

I think that decision should be left to the new coach.

You don't know who ISIS is???? Come sit with me on the coaches couch and I'll tell you...

Shazam! was a half-hour live-action television program produced by Filmation (the animation studio's first such program), based upon DC Comics' superhero Captain Marvel. The show ran from 1974 to 1977 on CBS; from 1975 to 1977 it was known as The Shazam!/Isis Hour, and included The Secrets of Isis, about an Ancient Egyptian superheroine resurrected in the body of a schoolteacher, as the second half of the hour. Actor Michael Gray starred as young Billy Batson, while Captain Marvel was played first by Jackson Bostwick, and later by John Davey.(Actress Joanna Cameron appeared as Isis, and her alter-ego Andrea Thomas, on three episodes of Shazam!, and Davey likewise appeared as Captain Marvel in three episodes of Isis) Today it is considered to be one of the prime examples of camp.

Thats funny that i don't remember her. I remember Shazam, the old guy he traveled with in the RV and the Ancients.

Let's look for explosive players on special teams. Building the offense is good. We're holding them well overall on D. Now we need more points. I understand Bill Callahan might be possibly coaching (RB's) for this team next season. I read some bad press on how he treated players in Oakland. Hopefully if he winds up on the Buccs sidelines next season, he won't be like what i've read. The only Oakland game i've really watched with him coaching was SB37. Wasn't impressed. He & Jeff Fisher are the only to HC's that did not beat the NFC in the SB in the last 10 yrs, but Fisher came a lot closer.
