Looks like Sattabaaz are notonly in cricket. ;)
Jokes apart... Well played Bucs..They deserved it.
dude, i just can't get into football. All my friends love it-the guys get so exasperated cuz i really don't get all of it :) i don't know...give me baseball, basketball, hockey, soccer (mmm...soccer boys :D-sorry abt that!), tennis (which i played) and i can get into it-but football...i really felt like i was the only one at school NOT watching the game :D
Jon Gruden the youngest coach ever to win a superbowl. His teams defence disected Raiders offensive game for most of the game.
During the first half, Raiders had only 3 first downs. Gannon, was sacked 5 times and had a superbowl record 5 interceptions. 3 of those interceptions were returned for a TD by the Bucs, which is also a superbowl record. OUCH!!
Its a very sad ending for the Raiders, who had prolly the best chance ever to win a superbowl. With a lot of Raider players over the age of 36, Im not sure if they can make it to the superbowl next year.
One thing that Al Davis, will regret and wont be able to forget for the rest of his life was letting Jon Gruden go. It must have come to haunt him tonight. How ironic.
And who would have thought that Bucs offense would put up 48 pts.
All the credit goes to Jon Gruden! - The offensive wizard.
man i am glad the raiders lost..they are bunch of talkers..if they had won the game they would still be talking about last year too..their key players are all very old so i dont see a bright future for them

The same question cameup last night between the commentators, Oakland regretted trading Gruden.
It all started with Tampa firing Dungey and wanted Gruden for 15 million, Oakland refused, Gruden's contract was ending and San Fransisco were fixing to fire Mariuchi and there was a possibility of Gruden going to SF and Oakland knew that would be a bad thing so they ended up trading Gruden to Tampa.
Well last year, oakland had to other option than to trade Gruden to Tampa Bay. I mean they weren't willing to pay'em that much so why bother!?
I don't think that oakland should regret their decision cuz Bill Callahan wasn't bad for a first time ever head coach, was he? Afterall, they did make it to the playoffs!
