Joe is sad to learn that former Bucs quarterback Shaun King, one of only three men to lead the Bucs to an NFC championship game as the starting signal-caller, was recently let go by BSPN. But not for that reason. Usually when BSPN lets go of an on-air personality, it’s for some sexual dalliance, whether it be [...]

Warren Sapp had fun with Dante Culppeper while Shawn King threw for 4 TDs on the day. View full size photo uploaded October 29, 2009 Funny how time works! Yesterday you saw how the 2001 Bucs demolished the Vikings at the Ray Jay, and how they did it three years in a row. Well one day later, it was one year earlier, and the Bucs started that streak 41-13 behind the passing of Shawn King and the running...

Apparently, this had nothing to do with him getting handsy with the wrong people either. Strictly for "performance" reasons, ESPN snitches say. Bully for Shaun.

Rich Rodriguez Tate suffered a minor concussion on his last play against Iowa. It was not the reason he sat out the last two drives, however. That was a coaching decision. He is still expected to start against Delaware State , but that's up to the team's medical staff. Both Tate and Denard are still pretty small guys, so the coaching staff is trying to limit the contact that they have to take. People...

Thew’s picks Week 1, which of course, is actually week 2. Once again I will be using the odds at VegasInsider.com, which has been known to give match ups that will not actually be played. This is purely for recreational purposes, and to show off how smart I am. North Carolina at Uconn +5- I have a feeling that Connecticut will not be worth mentioning much this year. They lost Donald Brown to...

Former Bucs quarterback Shaun King has served up his two cents on how to develop Josh Freeman. Joe has great respect for the opinions of former Bucs quarterbacks, even if they work for BSPN, like King and Trent Dilfer do. King offered strong opinions on Freeman’s development in an interview with Anwar Richardson, of TBO.com. King thinks putting the rookie in the No. 3 [...]

Shaun King of ESPN's College Football Live was quoted as saying that QB Terrelle Pryor was an "alpha-athlete," and a recent piece of news might have just confirmed it. Strength and conditioning coach Eric Lichter deemed Pryor as the fastest Buckeye with a reported 40-yard dash time of 4.33. That is not a misprint. It's not too typical that your quarterback is faster than the defensive backs...

Here is a copy of my most recent post at Checking the Numbers , my blog. Thanks again to Michael (aka Blitzburgh) for giving me a forum for my analyses. Note: When I started this post, I used this article from NFL.com to find the names of the rookies QBs that I didn't already know. However, in researching Shaun King's rookie season (see here , under 1999), I discovered that Pat Haden also started in...

I first found out about Shaun King and his “Courageous Church” plant in Atlanta through Fred Harrell (pastor of City Church in San Francisco) Twitter updates. The ministry they’re doing really encouraged me and I wanted to pass it along to all you Atlanta locals who I used to be near by and to the [...]
