Another day. Another Josh Freeman story. Another black eye on the image of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and head coach Greg Schiano.

In what’s becoming one of the worst smear campaigns seen in sports recently, the Bus continue to their former starting QB’s life as miserable as possible, and noew they are fining him:

Freeman told FOX Sports’ Jay Glazer on Sunday he would like to be released if the Bucs can’t find a trade partner. So far, he remains a member of the organization, and Schiano said Monday that Freeman will be asked to fulfill all requirements asked of any active player.

"“I remain dedicated and focused to being the best quarterback I can be,” Freeman said, “and to help a team win a championship.”"

The Bus need to put Freeman out of his misery and release him already.
