Quote:You can just see people who made fun of us in the past just reaching to keep doing so. It is apparent the tide is changing in Jacksonville and I think it upsets some people.
I don't think it upsets anyone but the Jaguars fans who take this stuff personally.  Quite frankly, most of the people who made fun of us who are continuing to reach couldn't care less about the Jaguars.  It's just an easy go to for those who are ill informed.

There is no such thing as bad Mexican food.  I could live on nothing more than enchiladas, tacos, re-fried beans and potatoes for all three meals every day.  Throw in some fried eggs every now and then (huevos rancheros) or maybe some tamales to change it up every now and then and I'm good.

Heck no.  I have tried to eat at a few Mexican places here in Jagsonville, and it was pretty much  Sick .  I cook my own Mexican food which is really more Southwestern style.

... or good Mexican food.
Am I missing something?

 

Other than the comments section, where was the scathing article?

People's feelings are getting hurt by the comments.

Wow, really??

 

Not for nothing, but when it comes to PFT's comments section, few no teams are immune to criticism.

No you're not missing anything.  While the article was written like it was by somebody that isn't a fan, there is really nothing wrong with it.  Yes us tax payers are footing a portion of the bill, but the stadium is city property and it's being improved.  There's nothing wrong with improving property.  The Wifi upgrade will be a nice thing for some fans, especially during the "tv timeouts", halftime, etc.

 

The fact is, the stadium is not solely used for Jaguars games.  The upgrade is a big improvement.

The article dismisses the facts that the team is actually picking up $1.8 million, and the remaining money is being used from savings they've had with the bigger construction project. 

 

Since this is a league mandate to upgrade the wifi in NFL stadiums, I wonder how many teams are doing exactly what the Jaguars are here, especially with multipurpose, publicly owned facilities like EverBank?  Why is this news because it's the Jaguars?

Bad Mexican food. Never heard of it. I don't think such a thing exists.

Interesting... I didn't realize that it was a league mandate to upgrade the wifi in stadiums.

 

I would guess that it's "news" because it was posted on local news and picked up by the hack website that the article is posted on.

I tried to explain that to "Rich Head", but I don't think he gets it.

The article also fails to mention that this money is coming from bed taxes generated by local hotels, and is not coming out of the pockets of local taxpayers.

That's true also, and something that slipped my mind.  I remember reading about that.
