It was almost embarrassing looking at those beautiful new video boards during the Tampa Bay Times ad where they declare they are the official newspaper of the Bulls.  Shameful.

They dont support us at all! We'd be better off without them. When they do cover us they always have to throw in something to bash us. You'd think they'd want the local team to do well.

They do support us in that they pay for that ad space.

The fact that they don't really do much in the way of good coverage is typical sales crap.

Today's USF game write up and story was literally on the back page,

Front page was the 24-7 UF/UMass embarrassment.

From a pure newsworthiness story... the UF game is a better story.

USF did what it's supposed to do.  Florida didn't.  That's news.

How is a 24-7 UF/UMass turdfest of a game more newsworthy than the USF game?  Because of Spurrier's return to UF?  Maybe, but at least put them together on the front page.  The front page header for USF game says on the back page.

Because it was a turdfest.

There was a nice banner at the very top of the front page directing to the back page where there was a HUGE pic of Tice after his td and the beginning of JK's article. Was continued on the inside of the back page with a full page of stuff. No problem with TBT this time. The UF "turdfest" was a bigger story.

They said the game day article was run on Friday! I hate the Tampa Bay times, thank god I live in Lakeland. If they slashed the budget to cut reporting for USF tomorrow I would cheer.

Sorry but this shouldn't be a story. First year qb, program having all kinds of players issues (lots of turnover, **** allegations, and weird stuff) who cares! TBT is the Tampa paper not Gainesville. Given them the back cover, and let every know USF football is back on the front page! We want butts in seats and the front page of thepaper will get us attention and bring fans to the stands. Burying us doesn't help us. Just keep winning and GO BULLS!!! :GoBulls:

 

***** gets censored? That is forced sexual intercourse. Wow never thought that word would trigger a filter.
