Khan's going to do what he want's to do. He's a billionaire. He has an ego. Despite his [BLEEP] record as an owner it's ultimately his team. The real clown show hasn't started yet. That'll happen in a few weeks (depending on what happens hopefully no later than Monday at this point) when season ticket holders say "[BLEEP] it" and don't renew. 

Maybe he'll [BLEEP] get the picture and big idea then. Billionaires only understand one thing and one thing only. Profits. Hurt his pocket. Then the real clown show begins.

This doesn't ever end with the owner caving to the fans though.  It's not just about what happened at the stadium.  The plan for it to happen made for discussion on ESPN.  Shad got the message.  My point is it either had no effect on his decision making or possibly an "oh you clowns want this guy fired?  Well you better learn to love him and get comfortable with him for the next 5 to 10 years then."  I don't believe he would do that completely out of spite if he was indifferent about Baalke, but I do believe it would make him much more comfortable feeling that way if his experience with Baalke to date has been positive and he already has some affinity for the guy, which, in my mind, has to be the case.

I wasn't behind the Klown movement.  I thought it was silly and I had no interest in disrespecting khan.  But I definitely didn't fault our fellow fans for it taking it to that next level.
Sounds like you're saying the fans are to blame for this fiasco though, and that kind of sucks to hear (read) from anyone.  If Khan really has dug in to spite the fans, it really only justifies the Klown movement even further.

Maybe the Khans were tired of the leaks.

They’re keeping every single topic close to the vest until they announce it. It’s been so quiet on every sides front. The Jags, Adrian Wilson, Byron…. Nothing.


The title is misleading. It should say maybe. Jags to hire coach MAYBE some time soon and we dont know who

Shad has the power, no doubt about that. He owns the ball, if he wants to start pouting and take the ball and go home there's nothign we can do about it.

That said, everyone has their point at which they are not going to keep bending over for the guy though, and I am at that point. You may not be there yet, but a lot of us are.

Ah, fair enough.  Reading comprehension is fun!

I’ll never be a rabble rabble guy regardless of what’s going on.  It’s either be a season ticket holder (which I am), a non-season ticket holding fan that attends games infrequently but watches on tv, or not a fan of the team and likely disinterested in the NFL as well.  If/when I get to the 3rd option, I’ll disappear from these forums unceremoniously.

*You're. Guess you're one of those uneducated Peckerwood's based on how you start sentences off in lowercase format and don't know the difference between your and you're. So, there's that. 

Sounds like you're equally invested (probably not financially, based on your typing skills you're probably barely hanging by on the lower end of the middle class), except, you're on the wrong side of the argument here. 

I mean, if you're content with accepting below mediocre products. Have at it. 

For the record though. You wouldn't have the [BLEEP] stones to run your mouth to me in person, Peckerwood.

Peckerwood. Sounds like a drama series on a lower tier streaming service.

This week on Peckerwood, Pete navigates the treacherous terrain that is the Jacksonville Jaguars message board. Streaming only on Tubi.

Since Brady announced his retirement do you think this will spur Leftwich to make a deal.

(This post was last modified: 01-29-2022, 03:57 PM by Pick 6. Edited 1 time in total.)

Unfortunately, if Baalke is retained, that is the final straw. I will be walking away. I am not from Jacksonville, so I was more invested in the team than the city, but I feel bad for everyone from Jacksonville to have to put up with this guy even though the city gives him anything he wants. It will also be unfortunate that my only home game as a fan was a blowout loss to the Niners, but I did get to watch them whoop the Giants in Metlife. Also, Myles Jack wasn't down, so I wish we got to celebrate a championship before bozo the clown ran this team into the ground. Sadly, they will waste Lawerence's career; maybe he can fake a back injury like Ramsey.

Honestly, I was happy when Khan bought the team because his story was inspiring. A self-made billionaire who came to America with nothing. But the events of the past year and the last two weeks suggest that it was a stroke of luck, and he fell [BLEEP] backwards into his fortune.

I give props to anyone that can hang on if Baalke is retained, but after 25 plus years as a fan, enough is enough for me. I will not cheer on stupidity. If news drops that Baalke is retained, moderators can pause my account or suspend it. I will cheer on the refs and gladly save 3 hours of watching this miserable team every Sunday until Baalke and/or Shad are gone because there is no way a new owner could be as stupid as Shad.

Apologies for the rant.

so Brady is retiring. That may help us land Byron. Ups the risk for him substantially if he does not land a different HC gig.

Haven't your heard that the problem isn't Byron. its not clear Shad wants Byron...


Or maybe leftwitch stays to get the bucs job if their head coach retires

Shad definitely wants Byron, he just wants Byron to want Baalke. We'll find out if Shad chooses Byron or Baalke.


The only positive is that Leftwich hasn't had has agent putting out info about interviews. If we hear him taking other interviews, then they are moving on or forcing Khan to make a decision.

They requested 2 days ago but nothing since then. No date or anything.


Sexton represents all 3 people the Saints have interviewed. It's been heavily rumored that the Saints want to promote from within. I think the Byron request was just a favor to Sexton and their agency to try to nudge the Jags into hiring Byron expediently.
