On Saturday, July 31, Central Alumni Tyrone Goodson, now residing in Ocala, traveled back to his childhood home turf in Brooksville. He and his close friends and family members took over Ernie Wever Youth Park to give back to the community he feels brought him success by offering a free youth football camp.
TAMPA- The road to Los Angeles starts now and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are looking to win the franchise’s third world championship and repeat.
TAMPA-The 2021 National Football League season will be one like no other, literally, as the league will embark on its first campaign in which each team will play a total of 17 regular season games.
A month of Sundays came and went. Every night is a lunar eclipse.
Hell has frozen over.
To appreciate the significance of Tampa Bay's athletic accomplishments, one must go back 46 years to when we didn't even have any major teams.
In 1976 the Tampa Bay Buccaneers became our first major-league franchise. They were winless that year at 0-14 and piled up a record 0-26 mark before finishing 1977 with two upset victories.
GAINESVILLE- Though an official announcement has not been made as of yet, the Florida High School Athletic Association released what will be the new classifications and districts for prep football for the 2021 campaign. Teams from Pasco and Hernando counties will be in new districts and the newly created divisions are listed down below from Class 7A to Class 2A. Nature Coast, Springstead, Hernando, Central, and Weeki Wachee will all be playing within new districts, which vary in competition.
TAMPA- The band is getting back together one by one and with each day, it’s looking like the Tampa Bay Buccaneers might be fully loaded.
TAMPA- This Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ defense stepping up at the right time and now they’re heading to Super Bowl LV in their own backyard at Raymond James Stadium.
Sitting at 7-7 in 2019 with a couple of games left in the regular season and it looked as if everything would likely stand pat for the 2020 campaign. Jameis Winston looked to be well on his way to being the returning starter, but two bad starts against the Houston Texans and Atlanta Falcons ended his time, after the Buccaneers defense played very well down the stretch.
TAMPA- The addition of quarterback Tom Brady has paid off and then some.
If there was any doubt about the greatness of Tom Brady before he came to Tampa Bay he’s pretty much silenced mostly many of his naysayers. How you might ask?
Here we are. The year is 2021 and for the first time since 2003, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (13-5) are finally back in the NFC Conference championship game. The last time they were at this point, the Buccaneers were heading to the city of brotherly love to take on the Philadelphia Eagles, a team Tampa Bay had to overcome past demons. Fast forward quite a bit to present day and Tampa Bay has exorcised another demon, the New Orleans Saints, in the Divisional round of the playoffs.
