The Bucs 50th Season is upon us. So I'll be counting down the 500 greatest plays in Buccaneers history over the next 50 days. Starting with #500, @rondebarber fantastic interception on the first play from scrimmage Week 10 2001, announced by legends Pat Summerall & John Madden

50 seasons later, the look still hits. Tampa Bay vs. Seattle in the original uniforms, Week 5.
A ‘76 rematch in the uniforms that started our legacy. Expansion Bowl 2. October 5 on CBS.
3 new magazines for the collection. The Ricky Bell cover is sweet
53 Days 'til the Bucs Kickoff their 50th Season Throwback to former Pro Bowl linebacker Shelton Quarles
53 Days 'til the Bucs Kickoff their 50th Season Throwback to former 1st round pick and All-Pro linebacker Hugh Green
My favorite example of this: @rondebarber started on the same defense as Lavonte David, playing in 2025 and also started on the same defense as Hardy Nickerson, drafted in 1987. 37 year connection.
Kind of wild to think about: @rondebarber and @MikeEvans13_ were two years shy of being teammates.

57 Days 'til the Bucs Kickoff their 50th Season Throwback to Dave Lewis highlights. The Bucs selected him with the first pick of the 2nd round in 1977. Lewis was a very underrated part of the Bucs #1 ranked defense in 1979 and was a pro bowler in 1980.
