Jacksonville Jaguars Fan Forums

Quote:It might just be coincidence, but we've now had two Jaguars stories appear on the nfl news page in twenty four hours. First one about Robinson and now Gerhart. Someone trying to say sorry by giving us some positive coverage ?

Nah. It just means there's not a whole lot of NFL news out there right now, so they're begrudgingly posting Jags news.

You can tell by the way the team acted when it was in London, waiving the flags around.  I dont know the writing almost appears to be on the wall.  If the owner truly feels he can double his yearly revenue over there he might move the team.  At least that is what I seriously thought until I saw the money he invested in the stadium.  That threw me off, and I thought he wouldnt do that unless he planned to stay here for at least a few years.

So you're on both sides of the fence on this one.

 

Khan is investing more money into the city of Jacksonville in general than he is into the stadium.  Nothing about the way the team behaved in London would give any indication that they're moving across the Atlantic.  Waiving flags?  Really?  That's your great measurement?

 

Khan will make more money in general in a London market, but he'll also have to deal with the punitive British tax structure.  Neither he, nor the players would be excited to have to contend with giving up more than half their income to the crown.

Apparently they were very enthusiastic, like they want to live there?

We're doomed.

Does someone on the Facebook page talk about flag waving a lot?

Those are actually pretty sweet flags.  Hopefully the locals get a taste of that swag this year.

No the Jaguar players were waiving around British flags.  I dont have the photo but if you watched the game on Tv it was kind of sickening as an american and Jaguar fan.

You do realize they were at a fan rally to get the folks fired up.  I'm pretty sure this wasn't some renunciation of their American pride, and to use that as your primary reasoning for thinking the team is destined for London is just silly.

Lol it was anti-american. Dont you see?

Clearly that was their intent.  Flag waving is a gateway to renouncing citizenship.

'Merica!!!


Truly sickening. I'm also sickened during the Olympics when our non-gold winning athletes don't walk off the podium and pummel whoever is playing the other country's national anthem.


We really need to get over ourselves sometimes.

Yikes...are you serious?

Unfortunately, I believe he is. 

The only thing that bothered me about those flags was the fact that I didn't get one at any of our home games here in Jax.................................................................... Yeah I'm selfish that way.

Agreed.  Those Jag flags were pretty sweet compared to the swag we normally get here. 

I was disgusted, personally.  I mean, never forget when those limeys tried to come over here and take our freedom.
