Hello Buc's fans, and those who frequent Buc 'Em. Starting today, I've been tapped by SB Nation to take over the duties of Head Blogger for Buc 'Em. I'll be assuming the day to day responsibilities of the blog, doing the moderating, and keeping it up to date with Tampa Bay Buccaneers information and NFL happenings.
To provide a little background on myself, I'm a local guy, having grown up in the Tampa Bay area. I graduated from the University of South Florida and currently reside and work in the Tampa Bay area. I'm an avid sports fan and my allegiances lie with the Rays, the Lightning, the 'Noles, and of course, with our Tampa Bay Buccaneers. I've supported the Bucs back into their Buccaneer Bruce days (which we get to re-visit this year) and have been a season ticket holder for the past 4 years.
My goal for Buc 'Em and for the fan base is to create and share daily content, including videos, fan posts, opinion pieces and general story lines regarding the Bucs. I'm a big believer in this being a community site, which basically means, speak up! Don't be afraid to post your thoughts and opinions. I encourage all of you to share your opinions on the team (in a thought out manner) that will allow other users the chance to comment. The beauty of a community blog is that it brings together like-minded individuals to a place where they can share thoughts on a common denominator. All I ask is that you respect the other users on the site, and while you may disagree with something that was written, do so in a constructive manner.
I'd like to thank SBNation for the opportunity, as well as thank JScott, Bull Gator, CraigT, and niko521bucs for their contributions to the site. I'd also like to thank you, the readers/commenters for your continued support in the upcoming months. Without you, our community blog becomes me rambling on for no apparent reason. With that being said, I look forward to taking over Buc 'Em and aim to make this your one stop source of info and discussion for the Bucs. If you have any ideas, suggestions, or just want to run something by me, I encourage you to shoot me an email (BucWildGuy@gmail.com). If any of you have designs on being a writer for Buc Em, let me know. Always looking to add voices into the mix.
Thanks and Go Bucs!
