Michael Spurlock just returned a KO 90 yards for a touchdown. As I'm sure you know--it's the first KO return for a TD in franchise history.

Now we just need the Dolphins to continue on to a winless season.

One thing that never changes, though: Broadcasters just said that Joey Galloway predicted a win by tOSU over an SEC team. LOL

Earnest Graham also set a team record today by scoring a TD in his sixth straight game.

I love the fact that Graham has done so well in the pros this year. I always felt like, for whatever reason, his production at UF never matched his talent level.

They mentioned today on the broadcast that Jon Gruden's dad has been riding him for years to play Graham more, because he thinks Graham is one of the most talented players on the team. Gruden's finally come around.
The Tampa Bay area has really embraced Graham, BTW. He kind of runs like Alstott, who is a local hero--always pushing forward and fighting and trying to get that last yard. Since he became the starter, the reporters have started talking to him and the story got out there that Graham and his wife were, at one point, living out of a hotel, because they weren't sure if he was going to be with the team one more day. People love that he stuck to it and overcame that adversity--guy is a fighter who just brings it to work every day. He's really become something of a hero here locally.

Congrats to the Bucs. Also congrats to the sorry fucking Dolphins as well for starting a winning streak. Although, does one game constitute a winning streak?

when you start at 0 i'd call 1 a streak.

I always liked Earnest when he was at UF. I thought he had all the qualities to be a solid back in the NFL. He runs a lot bigger than he really is so its good to see him finally get his break.

^^totally agree...he's always been a tough runner. only listed at 5'9 but now that he's bulked up he is serious. he's put on 10-15 pounds since his UF days, hasn't he?
