... the year the Gruden self terminates. :lol:

Chucky is going to explode one of these days over his obsession of being a complete and utter control freak. He just goes after one guy after another.. must really suck playing for that guy.. even the vets get "Chuckified".

GRUDEN MAD AT CLAYTON FOR DECLARING HIMSELF A STARTER
Posted by Michael David Smith on September 19, 2008, 11:43 a.m.

Buccaneers wide receiver Michael Clayton said on Wednesday that hes ready to enter the starting lineup in place of the injured Joey Galloway.

Buccaneers coach Jon Gruden would like Clayton to know that the coach is the one who determines whos playing and whos not. Stephen Holder of the St. Petersburg Times reports that when Gruden addressed reporters, he took a swipe at Clayton for speaking too soon.
A couple players have already spoken that [Galloway is] not going [to play], but Ill make that decision, okay? Gruden said. Ill decide who starts, too. As long as I have the title here as head coach, Ill do that.

This is the second straight week weve seen indications that Gruden wants his players to shut up about injuries; last week linebacker Derrick Brooks said Gruden gave him a gag order about his hamstring injury. In Claytons case, it wouldnt be at all surprising to see Gruden keep him out of the starting lineup on Sunday, just for spite.

He has the "RING"

That means he will be working for a long, long, time.

"Z" The man does not sleep. I am serious, he can not sleep, and I think that is a challenge. You say he will explode, I think he will implode.

I think he gets like 3 hours sleep a night. He is obsessive, he is a freak of nature, and it is all because, as he said: "His brother was a good athlete and he was not."

His story is interesting....

Zero2Cool (7h) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position

dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.

dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.

Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.

dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left

dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out

packerfanoutwest (28-Apr) : having a great long snapper is gold

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : LaFleur looking like he had some weight. Coachin will do that lol

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : Thanks Mucky and whomever created topcos for each pick!

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : Insane about Kingsley

dfosterf (28-Apr) : Putring it here so Mucky sees it. He was our guy!

dfosterf (28-Apr) : Bowden long snapper Wisconsin. Consensus best LS in college.

dfosterf (28-Apr) : We got Peter Bowde

dfosterf (28-Apr) : I personally interpret that as a partial tear that can be recovered from with rehab

dfosterf (28-Apr) : MLF said Kingsley Enagbare did NOT tear his ACL and did NOT require surgery, and that he is "looking good" for the 2024 season!

beast (28-Apr) : T.O. son signs with the 49ers

Mucky Tundra (28-Apr) : damn those vikings

beast (27-Apr) : Reportedly Packers have UDFAs Jennings and Jones

beast (27-Apr) : OL – Donovan Jennings, USF OT – Trente Jones, Michigan

TheKanataThrilla (27-Apr) : Interesting draft. A bit shocked that we didn't select an early CB. Definitely have Safety help. Pretty happy overall.

dhazer (27-Apr) : wow the last 2 picks are really stupid and probably will be special teams players Top 10 draft pick next year book it

TheKanataThrilla (27-Apr) : I think he ended up with a terrible RAS score

dhazer (27-Apr) : Anyone know what went on with Kitchens from Florida? At 1 point he was to be the Packers 1st round and he is way down the board now

Martha Careful (27-Apr) : Z, could you please combine my thread with yours please. I obviously did not see it when I Created it

Martha Careful (26-Apr) : Re: 'Kool-Aid' McKinstry. Other than Icky Woods, has there ever been a good NFLer with a childish nickname?
