Spurlock Has Ball Of Bronze

The Bucs are going to have the football Micheal Spurlock scored his touchdown with bronzed and put on display at team headquarters. There was some speculation that the Hall of Fame in Canton would want the football or maybe Spurlock's shoes for themselves, but that is apparently not the case. Even though Buccaneer fans have been celebrating the touchdown for a week, we shouldn't forget that the achievement is only significant to us because it took so damn long to get it. It's not really a good record, you know? I don't think there's anything in the Hall of Fame

The comments in the Times thread quickly turned into a call for a "Ring of Honor" for the Buccaneers, and I can't say I disagree. The team spent all that money on statues commemorating the Super Bowl victory. They have a Lombardi trophy and surely several other pieces that Buc fans would like to be able to see. Why are they kept behind the wrought iron gates of One Buc Place so that only Buccaneer employees can view them? The article says there's plans to showcase the trophy, but doesn't go into detail. We'll see, but now that all the real demons have been excised, maybe the Glazers can start acknowledging the past with a little more regularity.
