Buc Fans Boycott fox nfl sunday broadcast

Buc fans, due to fox nfl sundays disrespect and dissemenation of the tampa bay buccaneers football team, we are asking all buc fans to boycott nfl fox sunday broadcasts. Send your comments to fox nfl sundays website. The bucs are having their best season since the superbowl, and it is not unrealistic to imagine the tampa bay bucs in the superbowl in their own stadium, the first ever. For all you ticket holders, give the eye of the cameras, " all buc fan"!

I think he's alluding to the lack of focus by Fox pregame on the Bucs

and I do agree to some extent, but only to the point of mild irritation. If they make the playoffs and make a run, they’ll get plenty of attention thereafter. A boycott is pointless.

Cannons... fire them.

I’d prefer that Tampa continue to fly under the radar or even better, be labeled as a pretender by the talking heads for several reasons.

1. possible motivator for the team.

2. possible that opposing teams take the Bucs lightly.

3. Most importantly for me, nothing is better than seeing people like Skip Bayless, ect… eat a shit sandwich when Tampa wins 12 games and goes deep into the playoffs. The mainstream media hates it when small market teams do well especially when said teams knock out a popular, big market team that draws better ratings.

Trust me I know as a NE Ohio resident the media hates it when the Indians and Cavs suceed (Browns never suceed :0(…) and basically campaigns for us to lose LeBron and the playoff coverage for the Cavs and the Indians is always disrespectful and biased. From what i can see it’s basically the same for the Bucs and Rays.

I agree with mgtbfb….we always do better when no one gives us respect. Gruden coaches better as an underdog and as a result, the team plays better. The reason we, and for that matter the rest of the NFC South, are largely ignored is the East coast biased of ESPN and the New York media. I think Fox, although based in LA, simply feeds off of their lead.

Brooks, Barber, Garcia and company are all professionals and no doubt can get motivated on their own but if a few slights from the donkeys at ESPN give them a little extra incentive to knock someone out or make a huge play then I say BRING ON THE HATE!
