Tampa Bay Buccaneers

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers were pretty good between 1997 and 2002 — including a Super Bowl win over the Raiders — and have been largely unwatchable both before and since.

And it doesn’t help your team has grown up under the shadow of the Dolphins. They have the pedigree, the Hall of Famers. You don’t.

Well, Warren Sapp, I guess.

Your hard-to-watch product might be turning things around soon though. And even this turn of events doesn’t seem to generate the interest you think would be there from a hopeful fan base.

At least you moved away from those putrid uniforms of the late 1970s and early 80s.
