I want Tampa Bay to win because (1) everyone on the left seems to hate Tom Brady, and (2) the WaPo declared that the "Buccaneers" is RAAAAAACIST.

In #2 lucius septimius said: the WaPo declared that the "Buccaneers" is RAAAAAACIST. What do they have against French jerky makers? Buccaneers was the name given to sailors who jumped ship and lived on islands, making jerky. The name comes from the French word for the grill they smoked the meat on. Source

Reply to Kosh's Shadow in 5: Better source for the derivation of the word
buccaneer (n.) "piratical rover on the Spanish coast," 1680s; earlier "one who roasts meat on a boucan" (1660s), from French boucanier "a pirate; a curer of wild meats, a user of a boucan," a native grill for roasting meat, from Tupi mukem (rendered in Portuguese as moquem c. 1587): "initial b and m are interchangeable in the Tupi language" [Klein] (the Haitian variant, barbacoa, became barbecue). Originally used of French settlers working as woodsmen and hunters of wild hogs and cattle in the Spanish West Indies, they became a lawless and piratical set after being driven from their trade by Spanish authorities. Boucan/buccan itself is attested in English from 1610s as a noun, c. 1600 as a verb.

I picked Kansas City because a good friend grew up there. They sure don't look like winners tonight.

Like they'd care about facts. The point is that everything is White Supremacy now. Other outlets have already declared Brady a white supremacist and symbol of white supremacism. And the Nation of Karens is having a cow that he didn't wear a mask when he arrived at the stadium.

A buck an ear is the price they charge for corn at Whole Foods. I think that’s the origin of the team name.
