It’s easier to win, going from a cold city to a hot climate, than going from a hot to a cold city .

It’s cold in Detroit 9 months out of the year and the Lions went into Tampa and easily beat the Bucs. Heat is overrated.

Easily beat the Bucs? You won by 1 TD, and it was down to the wire, against a very undisciplined team, so get over yourselves. A win is a win no matter what, but they way you talk you came in and hung 21 on the Bucs, which was hardly the case. I know one stat that the Lions will be beating the Bucs in this season, and that is the police blotter. Go Bucs!!!!!!

Smart coaching by Schiano. I like this guy, I think he’ll be VERY good for the Bucs.

I do think that hot weather can be more of an advantage. I don’t mean just warm, I mean brutal South in the summer time hot. When it’s cold, guys can layer more articles of clothing, wear gloves etc. When it’s hot and you have uniform requirements and are doing a physical activity? Not so much.

Ps. Everyone seems to be calling him COACH Schiano, a big step up from “Rah”. Its called respect and coach Schiano revels in it.

Yes it gets hot up north… IN THE SUMMER
Its hot down here almost all year, Hell we didn’t even have a winter last year. I love everything coach Schiano has done so far making this team tough the old school way. The Bucs are back..now lets respond Tampa and get rid of these blackouts!

Go Bucs!

Its easier for cold weather teams to play in a hot climate then it is for hot climate teams to go up North. Green Bay going to Houston to Miami or them going to Green Bay in December or Chicago?

Come down to the bayou in July and tell me Philly is hotter.

and maybe learn from Coach Rah’s mistakes and avoid drinking on nights before games.

Other teams poke your fun. Past coaches practice inside. Am glad we are going hard at practice. He wants the team to compete where the last few yrs we didn’t. It’s the steps we are taking now to build us back up to play against anyteam. 11 wins this year.

You ever just get a good feeling about something?? I know we’re not even in the season yet and talkin about it right now is just wishful thinking but who’s to say we can’t go from worst to first again?!

I was in the Coast Guard in Tampa/St Pete. The Heat could sap your strength in a couple hours, I remember being out in early March painting an Anchor chain and having a heat stroke later that night and I’ve lived in the South my entire life.

You can tell its the dog-days of football when there are articles about players preparing for future weather conditions. We all know this is an advantage for certain teams (Miami, tampa, new England, green bay), so do we REALLY need pointless stories?????

I’m born and raised in Tampa, and it’s the humidity that’s the most brutal! The Bucs forgot about free agency for a couple of years, hopefully that doesn’t have a negative impact on their game plan for 2012!

It is hotter than a mother down here. Being climatized to this humidity has to be an advantage come game time september
