Want Shula gone? Don't look for Rivera to do it...

What do they say about history again?

http://www.sptimes.com/News/020300/Sports/Bucs_send_Shula_packi.shtml

The Bucs did not score a touchdown in an 11-6 loss to the eventual Super Bowl champion Rams in the NFC title game Jan. 23 -- the fifth game in which they failed to reach the end zone last season.

Earlier Wednesday, Dungy said he hoped the impasse he, general manager Rich McKay and ownership had reached could be resolved and his entire staff would be signed for the 2000 season.

"That would be my hope, but it's out of my hands," Dungy said. "Truly out of my hands."

After a conference call involving Dungy, Bucs vice presidents Brian and Joel Glazer and McKay Wednesday evening, Dungy notified Shula that he would not be given a new contract. Apparently, ownership and McKay insisted Shula not return next season

Rivera doesn't have the balls to do it. It's the reason they indicated today that there will be no staff changes. If this offense and team continues to not make any progress at the end of the season Rivera needs to be let go and the rest of his incompetent staff. I think the writing is on the wall and Rivera is to naive to see it. So if things don't change ASAP him and his riverboat will sink.

    • Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!
    • How do I activate said Krispy Kreme deal? I'm stoned man you can't be playing with me about this...
    • When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
