Bucs Trade Perennial Quit It
Last night, the Bucs traded the largely ineffectual DE Gaines Adams to Chicago for a second round draft pick. Gaines was the 4th overall pick in 2007 and had yet to live up to his potential in Tampa.
By all accounts, Gaines has become a hard-worker in the offseason, but that never translated to field. Adams has only had 1 sack and 10 tackles in the first five games this year.
This sets the stage for Stylez G White to take over as starter, but the Tampa media (like the Tampa Tribune, here) seem to think that the team might be looking for an instant replacement via another trade. The trade deadline is Tuesday.

There are fighting rookies, retired quarterbacks who won’t go away, and one little lady who can definitely stand the heat in the Vikings’ kitchen? Need a little clarity?

Chick Chattin’ With Vilma

Nothing whets a chick’s appetite more than fresh meat! Just don’t tell that to the Saints’ newest defensive stud-muffin Jonathan Vilma.

And since we know we’re not the only ones who want to know a lil sumphin-sumphin, we’re giving you a chance to get all up in Vilma’s grill. (Sorry, when to sleep with MTV on.)
New-per Bowl
Our emotions about this year’s Super Bowl match-up: “Ugh” and “Eh.” It’s the New England Patriots and the New York Giants in a battle of two teams with the word “New” in their names. Other than that fascinating fact, we’ll all get to suffer through the next two weeks hearing about the Pats quest for perfection and Eli Manning’s quest for redemption. Yippee!!
NFL Players Looking to Get Lei’d
In less than a week, we’ll learn which NFL players are headed to Hawaii for the 2008 Pro Bowl game. We all know the obvious candidates: the Tom “Baby Daddy” Bradys, the Adrian “Catch Me If You Can” Petersons, and the Tony “I’m Banging Jessica Simpson” Romos. But which of some of the lesser ballyhooed NFL players deserve a shot at post-post season glory? Furthermore, do any members of the Black and Gold squad deserve a shot on the Pro-Bowl roster?
