Buccaneers v Raiders -- Are They Both Pirates ???

[308nato]

What's the difference between a Buccaneer and a Raider ? One has a parrot and one doesn't ? Don't they both drink rum ? Is there a difference ?

I am perplexed ?

 

[UncleWai]

raiders = winners
buccaneers = losers

there is a pretty big difference.....

I thought about that correlation too, and wondered why no one in the media has milked it.. yet...

They both have eye patches!

Raiders can suck it!!

GO TAMPA BAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They both are pirates. I take a Raider to be mean that they are raiding villages and plundering not specifically a pirate. A buccaneer I believe is most certainly what they called pirates.

 

[slikmunks]

a raider is a land-pirate, a buccaneer is a water/sea pirate

Arrrrrghhhhhh!

Aye, the Bucs are pirates. Tampa has a thing for pirates...

Ask LordJezo...we looked up the definition for buccaneer back during winter break. There's a difference between buccaneers and raiders.

I was wondering how many replies there would be before someone made that lame joke..

Is this a real Buccaneer ??He doesn't look like Errol Flynn.

How does Swashbuckler fit in ?


Land Pirate ? Were they like the original wind surfers then ?

Windsurfing takes place in the water.

Buccaneer = A "traditional" pirate. Goes after all ships regardless of their nationality

Raider = A buccaneer that is sponsored by some country. Doesn't act against ships of the sponsoring nation, but pays extra attention to the ships of the sponsors enemy

That is the difference if I remember correctly

Only one of the teams has a sweet-ass pirate ship in their stadium. The other one is Oakland.

The Autumn Wind is a Raider

The Autumn Wind

The Autumn Wind is a pirate
Blustering in from sea
With a rollicking song he sweeps along
swaggering boisterously
His face is weather beaten
He wears a hooded sash
With his silver hat about his head
And a bristly black moustache
He growls as he storms the country
A villain big and bold
And the trees all shake and quiver and quake
As he robs them of their gold
The Autumn wind is a Raider
Pillaging just for fun
He'll knock you 'round and upside down
And laugh when he's conquered and won.

They teach the young in Finland about proper pirate identification technique?

I am impressed. My education was lacking in this.
