About this episode

“Ready to feel energized and in control again? At Orderly Meds, we have helped thousands just like you take charge of their health with a GLP1.”From the transcript
The frustration surrounding the Buccaneers reaches a boiling point as Nick Wize takes calls and reads texts from angry Tampa Bay fans. Nick says he isn't surprised that Packers fans took over Raymond James Stadium, pointing to the heat, expensive tickets and, most importantly, the terrible product the Bucs are putting on the field. Nick believes the team sold its fans on "hope" and completely failed to deliver, and he refuses to criticize anyone who chooses not to spend their money watching an unwatchable football team.

Appreciate that Nick. All right. We're talking about the box and just the debacle yesterday. Some text messages coming in. I'm still dumbfounded about the decision to go for it on 4th and 11 instead of trying a fuel goal. McLaughlin has proved he has the leg. You know, here's the thing. I got to be honest. Kick in the fuel goal there. It never crossed my mind. A 65 yard fuel goal. It's makeable these days, but the probability is highly unlikely. I believe the analytics actually showed that making it and going for it were both the like 11% both chances were very low. Tim, could you imagine the reaction today? Let's say Todd Bulls kicks the fuel goal from 65 yards out and it's a miss. How many people are calling for his job today because he missed the field goal and what a stupid decision that was to kick a 65 yard field goal rather than go for it? Yeah, especially with Jalen Daniels who proved in this game. He can use his legs.

He could have. I'm not saying he could have scrambled to get that first down, but yeah, people would have been absolutely second guessing that being like, we got to running quarterback. He could have scrambled for this that and the other. You know, right. Yeah, there's no there's no winning in that scenario to be honest. No, they're not. Damn, if you do, damned if you don't, and it's not me having the guys back. It's just it to me. It's a non talking point. It's not once while I'm watching the game. Did I think they should kick a 65 yard field goal? I mean, it's we're not talking about a 55 yard field goal. We're talking about 65 yards. And I know today's kickers are much better than when our grandpas were watching football. But at the end of the day, it was still a 65 yard kick with a little bit of wind in the face and very humid day. It's like when you're playing golf, golf ball doesn't fly as good in the humidity as it doesn't that dry air. Now if they're in Denver, then yeah, I'm probably going to roll out the kicker and try the 65 yard field goal. But to me, it just to me, it's a moot point.

There's so many other things that went wrong. And I was actually surprised the field goal because that was like one of the first questions asked in the press or two. And he said they did think about it. But I'm surprised so many people are upset with the disease. And again, I think they're upset with it because it didn't work out. I think we're in the same scenario if he goes out there with the kicker and any misses, then you're going to be like, what a dumbass. Who kicks a 65 yard field goal? Another text from Angel, what's up with Vita Vaya, Lollie Gelling or Lollie Gagging around ball A. Sean Robinson was given the team a speech. Chris Mathis posted that on his Twitter page. I did see that video and I did write that. I thought so too. I wrote it down in my notes like Vita Vaya. Apparently, remember, he said he, if when Todd bulls retire, he retires. So maybe Vita's just getting ready for retirement. I have no idea because he's committed a felony by robbing the Tampa Bay Buccaneers of $24 million. But yeah, he looked uninterested.

I should say, whole team, but a lot of them look like they've given up. They know that this season's already done. It's over with. I know some people, I think Pat and Aaron, you know, they're not saying that they've seen that this team is going to make the playoffs, but they did throw it out there. You only team to go on for and make the playoffs was what the 92 chargers, but agreeing with them that does this team look like a team that can make the playoffs? No, no, not at all. The only reason why playoffs are still even being uttered is because this division stinks. Exactly. Yeah, how's Todd bulls comment there being only one game back? Well, now he's two games back, Tom. Let's go to Brian and Iowa. What's up, Brian? Hey, Nick. Thanks for taking my call. And hey, shout out to you for what you're doing with fourth and bowl. I think this is the first time I've called into WDA even about 15 years. And it's because of you.

So I appreciate what you're doing. Thank you, brother. I appreciate that. I have someone who had to suffer both football games this weekend. I have a much tougher time stomaching the bowls. I think the bucks have been a victim of bad head coaching for a few years. And unfortunately, I think some of the most talented players just got sick of it. I, Mike Evans, who might have been covering up for a lackluster receiving core. I don't think God one is the one that Google looked a lot better. Is that three than a two? And I think all this has just kind of come together at a very unfortunate time that's going to lead to some house cleaning. But the more disappointing thing to me is. The USF who I love dearly and controls much. I'm doing a more talented roster than the teams they're playing. And I think this is a real first test for Brian Hartline to figure out who he is going to hold accountable to make sure what I think is a decent roster that has a potential for

a fairly strong season does not slip away. No, I think that when Brian Hartline got hired, everyone just thought immediately because it was a big name, it was going to translate to success. And he's going to need to coach better. And USF's going to have to perform better. And Brian, I'm sorry you're a fan of both because it's like watching the same team. Both incompetent offenses with, with defenses that are doing enough to get a victory. And the offense just struggles to move the ball. I appreciate the call listening and I heart radio in Iowa. But yeah, both teams are very similar. So if you're a boxing a bull's fan, definitely thinking about you today. Because those were just two brutal watches and you're dealing with the same thing. Bucks and bulls fans, you got offensive coordinators that you're questioning right now. I'm just, I'm questioning a lot more things with the Bucks though than I am USF. The downfall of this offense and especially this offensive line that was at one time good is just it's, it's bizarre how bad things have gotten.

You're going to pat and citrus. What's up Pat? Hey Nick, absolute pleasure. As usual, you hit all the nails on the head. The D 1714 on both USF slash Bucks. USF 1713. Yeah, very close. It's hard to win a game whether it's NFL or college. I got to keep this quick because Tim told me to. Hey, and then I, I work at Raymond. I know Pat. Keep it going. 80% of those people, 80% were packers. All the wire, why is everybody selling all their tickets? It's a joke and that's the reason why the stadium was 80%. It's ridiculous. I was out on the field for the first quarter. I had to leave because I looked around the arena. It was a ridiculous. Anyways, you nailed it. You got to score more than 17 points to win a game. Wow, I do disagree those last two games. The D has come up a bit and you should win that game but we have no, oh, like you alluded

to. Anyways, I got to leave it that way and congratulations to Tim's Patriots and his mom's birthday. Thanks for the call, Pat. Oh, wait. Let me know what you think about the packer fans and everybody selling all their tickets. Please. Yeah. Let me ask you this guys. Do a commercial right now and sell me a box game. Hey guys, come join us to Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 95 degree weather as we get ready to take on so and so we're 0 and 5. Come out to see our game. Sweat your ass off by $19 beers and pay $40 for parking. The hell would anyone want to go for? I'm not going to dog. The box fans are not showing up. It's a horrible product. We have a head coach that nobody wants here. That to me, that's maybe the one reason you do get rid of the coach because maybe it gets people to want to go to the game because they feel change is coming. I know they can help see on field product necessarily, but it might help the business

of Bucs fans going to the game. That's what we said about this week with Jalen Daniels being the quarterback. Yet apparently there are a lot more green Bay fans, but there were always there was going to be more green Bay fans before the game. We knew that. Because the team was 0 and 3. You're starting a backup quarterback. Everybody wants the coach out of here. I'm not going to dog the fans for not showing up. I typically watch the games outside in my backyard under a shaded roof. And it was too hot. I watched the games inside yesterday. You were never going to convince me to go to a stadium with 65,000 people. Sit outside and watch this team. I think the fact that any fans showed up to watch this team, you should be thankful for because they're not worth going to the game and watching. That is an absolute frustrating display of a product. They sold you on hope this year in all of that hope is gone.

They sold us on draft picks. Ruben Baines going to be this. And by the way, I'm not on Ruben yet. But if that's all you could sell me was this defensive line is going to be so good going into the year. Well, guess what? It's a failure. But why would anyone go to the game? It's it was hottest hell yesterday. Tim, I'm surprised you weren't there with the Packers fan though. I am quite honest. I don't know any Packer fans. You want to get people to go there lower the beer prices. How about you make the beer prices for every win they get. You make it five bucks. Right now they're free. Sell the bucks tickets at Costco like the Gators used to do two tickets, two beers, two hot dogs, 50 bucks. Maybe somebody will buy them. But no one's going to pay them amount of money to go see this team. So yeah, it's going to be takeovers. It's not the fans fault.

It's it's a whole deal. You got to get the kids ready. Drive down there. Sit in traffic on Dale Mayberry. Pay the $40 for the parking. I'm probably being generous on that. And then it's so hot, even if you just want to water, you're going to pay an absurd amount of money. Now, I wouldn't go to the game. I don't blame anyone not going. The hell wants to watch this product. If you're ready to feel confident again, visit orderlymeds.com to learn about which GLP1 you may be eligible for.
