Bucs help out McCoy

[Black&BlueBubba]

Since he was on an away trip for the 49ers game, his old Bucs teammates stepped up  for Gerald’s sons senior night.  Nice gesture by his old team.  They posted a cool Instagram message to him. 

Kudos to all of them.

I think that’s gotta be one of the lesser talked about inconveniences of being a professional athlete - you miss a lot of important stuff and family. 
 

you hear it a bit from coaches or players when they retire, they often say they wish they could have been a better dad.

True.... but there are many other professions like that.

Yeah. It’s no fun. I used to travel for a living. Put up over 150,000 airline miles in a year.  It’s hard on a family when you have kids.  

Don’t miss giving that up at all.

Then you have millions to spend nearly unlimited time with them other times of the year

They need to mow his lawn too.

From what I hear for players yes, coaches not as much because they are still busy with scouting, draft prep, planning for training camp etc etc.  The fact more coaches aren’t fighting for cushy tv jobs tells you about how competitive these guys are.

Why they gotta do stuff to make me like them? Good on you, Bucs.

This is the kind of stuff we need to see more of. Love it.

You can like the players but hate the organization.  It says a lot about McCoy that his ex teammates think that much about him

Wait hold up...

McCoy is 31 and if it's his son's senior night he must be 17 or 18? So that means Gerald was slinging some potent dick at 14/15?

Classy move.

Always had some respect for the Bucs versus my unbridled hatred of the Saints and Falcons.
