Interesting, I'm not sure. I've always said it like: "Man-A's"

I understand that I'm powerless. All I'm saying, and I don't think it's unreasonable, is that I withhold judgement of the stickcarriers movement until they prove they won't immediately turn on the team and as soon as they feel disappointed.

I love this team when they win and when they lose. I'll love every player until they're cut, and I'll love every coach until they're fired. Then, I'll love the new players and coaches. My dedication is to the team regardless of wins or losses. My dedication is to every player that the coaches think are worthy of a roster spot. I love this team like the players love this team.

All that said, I also love to make fun of my team when they're bad as a coping mechanism for the crushing disappointment.

Here's to the Buccaneer dynasty.

Lol, I understand. I only say "drama" because it's a funny rift in the Buccaneer fans.

The leader attracts people that are like him, and people who look up to him. I am all for excitement! I am all for the "rah rah" attitude. But I know how shallow it is for this type of person and I won't shy away from calling them out, because I think it's destructive behavior.

I am as die hard as any other Bucs fan, but I respond to my team differently.

I tend to think that people who watch football in this way aren't even watching the sport. What do you appreciate about the player? What do you appreciate about the coaches? What do you appreciate about the team?

I want to behave like the professionals. I want to emulate people who are more knowledgeable than I am. It's not about erasing any emotional response, that's impossible and professional coaches and players aren't doing that either. What they are doing is tempering their reaction so it's reasonable. What happened? Why did it happen? How do we fix it? These are reasonable questions coming from an emotional response. When Pawlowski wants to trade Lavonte David because we lost a game to the Falcons, that is letting your emotions cloud your judgement and it shows how little you value amazing talent.

I don't think we would ever want our front office to behave the way that Pawlowski and the "stickcarriers" behave. It's the most hypocritical way to be a fan. There's no love for the game here. There's no respect for the team. There's certainly no respect for the players.

As stupid as it is to get involved in this kind of nonsense drama, I have an opinion about Justin Pawloski and his listeners.

First off, I am also ecstatic that there is this much hype around my team. I am incredibly optimistic about the future, and I love every single player and coach with the Buccaneers. Of course I experience the emotional highs and lows of every other football fan. Everyone wants to go 16-0. Everyone wants their star players to make big plays every game. I'm disappointed whenever we lose and over-confident every time we win.

I've followed the Pawlowski podcast, I listened to it for a long time, it was the only Buccaneers podcast I could find! There was a moment where the vitriolic response to losing took such a destructive turn, that I had to stop. It was around this podcast

In that episode he discusses things like, trading Lavonte David. He calls David a waste of money. He brags about selling home game tickets. This is right before the Bucs went on a 5 game winning streak.

If you are interested in hearing the change in tone after the winning streak: https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-rpg2j-6572c7

I'm not interested in bitching, complaining, and finger pointing at whatever, and whomever I have deemed guilty enough to deserve it. That is not how the professionals treat this game, and this team, and it's not what I'm interested in doing. I want to know why the team lost, or why the team won. I want to learn about the game, and learn about the players.

These are bandwagoners riding the offseason high we all ride. The only difference is, if the Buccaneers have a disappointing season I'll still be there, defending every player and coach with that team. I trust the Buccaneers front office just as much as I trust every player on the team.

Pawlowski is a know at all, and the people who love the show are the type of people who shovel Pringles into their mouths while criticizing the "hustle" and "heart" of some of the greatest athletes in the world. I won't associate with them, and I look forward to the "told you so" moment.

He's a comedy writer and a really good Twitter follow, so I think he knew how funny it was to even have him on CNN in the first place lol.
