Tampa Bay releases Brooks & Dunn

Looks like they're boot scoot boogy'in outta there.

That's a clearance sale ain't it?

Brooks will end up somewhere, he's not finished yet, IMO. Dunn will retire, I'm almost certain.

I'm worried, they're starting to clean house, getting rid of Chucky was the first step to turning them into an actual football team...

As much as I love Brooks, he's getting old. Keeping him around would be a mistake for a team that's trying to rebuild.

Tampa Bay is looking like they could be a powerhouse in the very near future. Yay!

I think the most unappreciated defensive player in the NFL (aka Barrett Ruud) will fill in nicely for years to come in the same role Brooks did for a very long time.He will be the next (quiet) leader of that front 7 in TB.

If Gruden/Allen had done this, the local sports radio character assassins would have screamed bloody murder.

I thought they only played really bad music.

Why not post this in the NFL Offseason Thread that is already going?

Wait, are we talking about football or country music?
