Now for my weekly moaning about how bad my beloved tampa bay storm is. They lost to Arizona 60-27 in ‘Zona. That 33 point loss was better than I ever expected. Firstly, they got Jason Boltus, last year’s qb, back from an injury, but that didn’t help the amazingly inept offense. Tampa has yet to score 30 points this season. The league average is 50 +/-3 points; the Storm’s average is exactly 27. That’s like an NFL team failing to score as little as 20 points over the first 3 weeks (6.333 ppg). The only positive for the storm is that they are going on they’re bye week. If Jeff Vinik (who has done great things for the city of tampa by putting an influx of dollars to revive the downtown channelside area near the arena) cared about the team even a little bit more than as a side project to use up the Amalie Arena and give sponsors a testing ground (Amalie motor oil started as a Storm only sponsor), which won’t happen because the lightning are in the playoffs, and that isn’t even a good excuse because Dan Gilbert, owner of the Cleveland Gladiators and Cavaliers, has put in serious effort to not only promote the team so that it sets records for attendance in Cleveland, (even beating 2008 attendance, when the league average was twice as high as it is today) but to keep the team competitive by getting experienced and quaiified people to run the team, not letting a local hero (Derrick Brooks is the team president) bring in some of his drinking buddies (assuming Brooks drinks) to run the team (Dave Wilson, director of player personal, played with Brooks at FSU and was coaching his high school alma mater before; Jeff Gooch, team vice president, played with Brooks on the Bucs and was the offensive line coach at Georgia Tech before coming to Tampa). An example of how bad Brooks has been as a GM is that he’s hired Dave Ewart, a person who hadn’t coached in the Arena League since 2001 as coach of the Florida Bobcats, who tampa regularly smashed into the ground like Tampa got smashed on Saturday, and now he’s hired the Arena League equivalent of his NFL playing career, Lawrence Samuels, as the head coach. Tampa has lost 57 games in the 6 years (5 full, 1 current) since brooks took over, and they only lost 85 games in the team’s first 19 seasons. In other words, do what the Lions did last year and fire everything midseason in hopes of starting fresh next year.
Now on to other games, Cleveland (1-2) lost a close one 42-47 at home against L.A. (2-1) on Saturday. (2-1) Philly smacked league-owned (meaning the other owners cover all expenses for that team for season while being as cheap as possible by only having the coach control all player decisions with the players all making the bare minimum salary of $800 per game) (0-3) Portland 70-32 in Philly on sunday. The week ended with (3-0) Orlando pulling out a thrilling last second victory over the (1-2) Sharks in J’ville last night by the final of 63-56. The 2 winless teams, the Portland Steel and the Tampa Bay Storm, will be on a bye this upcoming week. These 2 posts (the Storm rant and the actual recap took me an hour to make between both)
Congrats to Dave on 500
Trent Richardson can’t hit the hole
Happy 500
Please do a redux of Westeros Week for the new season!
Is the villain Paxton Lynch?
Haha, that or Bucco Bruce lost his hat and orange tint while escaping from a Raymond James Stadium storage closet.
Congrats to Dave on 500 comics.
I have to admit, that’s the first joke on this strip I didn’t see coming until the last panel. Bravo!
There’s a joke to be made here about Richardson having never gotten laid.
Congrats on 500 Dave
500!
This is hilarious! Congrats on 500!
Yay 500! Congratulations on and thank you for your efforts to bring us a few moments of laughter and smiles several times a week Dave. In a world where everyone can choose what they contribute to life you chose to make others happy with football related dick and fart jokes–and that is truly noble. Thank you.
King Nefarious should just make a wall of unstoppable minions. No way is Trent not gonna go through that.
Or he could just stand behind a hole.
That could be like 4 minions standing 6 to 8 feet apart from each other. Impenetrable.
Happy 500. This was a very worthy comic.
Epic
Congrats Dave! Cheers to 500 mate!
Wait how did he manage to get inside?
