San...Diego...Super Bowl'ers!
[We freaking did it!!!]

Thanks so much to everyone for all the well wishes! It makes up ten-fold for all the smack we've had to take over the years in our blogs, the press, and the world in general for being Bucs fans. What a year! Our Sooners finish in the top 5 after an amazing Rose Bowl performance, and now our Bucs are World Champions. Both of our teams, college and pro, have two of the best coaches in the game. I just can't believe it's over...7 months of golf...ugh.

This isn't the first time "my team" has won the Super Bowl. I was a Cowboys fan all of my life, until Barry Switzer's firing in the late 90s. I was raised in silver and blue and had a Cowboy Cheerleader's uniform before I could barely walk. But I can definitely say this is the sweetest. We live in, and are a part of, this community. We've been here through the early lean (orange) years as Sapp and Brooks were starting out, and the mean years where we got close but no cigar. So this is more sweet than anything I could have possibly dreamed of... Second only to our being at the Orange Bowl when the Sooners won the National Championship in 2000.

Again, thanks to everyone for the congrats and well wishes! What a day! The official celebration begins at Raymond James Stadium tomorrow evening. For those in Tampa Bay, the stadium parking opens at 6:00 p.m. with the team expected to arrive about 9 p.m. Hope to see ya'll there!



Hey boy take a look at me...let me dirty up your mind...



Mega congrats. The Bucs deserve to win. They played a great game!!!

Kudos to the Bucs....the Raiders surprisingly gave up...it's a dissapointment but Chucky-er Gruden deserves the win

Whoo Hoo, Whoo Hoo, Whoo Hoo!

Congrats to the 'Bucs. This was the first, only, and last time I actually agreed with my sisters fiancee about anything.

I'm glad they won!

Congrats to Tampa Bay on their impressive Super Bowl win! And this comes from a Philly fan *ducks and runs*....but my new hometown team (Ravens) got their trophy when they were at the top of their game, and now the best of the best won theirs! Kudos to the Bucs!

CHAMPIONS!

YAY!!! I'm so incredibly glad that they won! I was kind of surprised at the lack of an even game, though... The Raiders just weren't in it, I guess. Regardless, Tampa played an amazing game, and deserved wholeheartedly to win!
GooooOOOOO Chucky!!

Here's a interesting fact...MALCOLM GLAZER, owner of the Bucs, used to live in a house behind and down the street one house here in Rochester NY. His daughter Carla, had me arrested once when I broke into the neighbor's house as a kid on a dare. Didn't take anything and got off with a good grounding but that's a fact!

hehe... that was the first full American Football game I've watched and now I can see why you Americans actually find it good! Still, it's never gonna be soccer, is it?!

Congrats to the Bucs and to you guys for enduring the smack talk the last year! :) The Bucs deserved the win, they played like they were there to win and I'm glad they did!

I don't think we'll make it to the CITS tonight but we're on for the parade tomorrow!

Oh I wish I could be there celebrating, having rooted for the Bucs since the start. I must admit I, too, am a cowboys fan, but only when they play the Redskins - it annoys my inlaws so. heh. Hey Pete, I went to college with Joel Glazer!

and again, I say "wooohooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
