I don't know the area... or the people in Jacksonville... It's too hot....I'm not going if this person's playing... I'm not going if this coach is hired... I'm not going if they keep this coach.. GM... Coordinator.... I've heard just about all of them... And the negativity on any given Sunday is mind-blowing....And yes you keep hearing that the team is going to move and I wonder why... The league when they were giving out the expansion teams back in the day all the experts said the Jacksonville and it's fan base could not support an NFL franchise... And your kind of proving their point.... And yes Jacksonville has historically had an attendance problem... I remember I've been a fan since day one....a 9-7 team had an attendance problem and we had attendance problems when we were hosting playoff games... So don't tell me I don't know what I'm talking about because I don't live in Jacksonville... I also hear a lot of stuff outside of Jacksonville that you guys don't... And how other fan bases and NFL teams view the fans in Jacksonville.... So go back to stick in your head in the sand and act like it's a non-issue.... And get this clear I'm not calling out people that are season ticket holders... I'm not calling out the ones that have been supporting them since day one.... The ones that go to the games obviously... I'm talking about the over negative people that simply won't support the team because they don't play well or they have a certain coach... It's those people that I'm talking about.... And if you're not one of those people then don't worry about it.... But to the ones that have lashed out at me because of my opinion? Do you have a guilty conscience? Seem to be taking it awful personally... If you go to the games your season ticket holder and you support the team through thick and thin then I'm not talking about you.... I'm talking about the fair weather fans
All this arguing over a statistically disproved position. Sad.
I'm sorry that you see it as an argument.. I look at it as more of a conversation about an issue.... I mean isn't that what forums are all about.... To have conversations.... Not everybody is going to agree with each other... Like I said time and time again it's my opinion... I look at it in the past there was an attendance problem was there or wasn't there... We couldn't sell out games we had blackouts... We tarped seats... We had issues selling out home playoff games... All correct right? Then we did go on a run where we were selling out games and things were going well... Untill halfway through this season... All I'm saying is I feel like we're going to be going into another one of those droughts.... And that's going by the attitude of the fans and the late-season numbers on attendance... And if you read this forum you know what I'm talking about.... I just don't want to see the fan base turn on our team just because of the past two horrible seasons... And yes if we go into another drought where fans start to not go to games like they have in the past... this team will be gone maybe... And I don't want to see that and I'm sure none of you want to either.... But you have to admit when you read this forum on every Sunday it's pretty negative... Especially the game thread.... For a long time I refuse to read it on Sundays because I thought it would bring bad luck to the game lol all the negativity that is.... And yes I'm superstitious...BTW I do read other forums it seems like ours is way more negative then most but once again just my opinion...
You guys can beat me up for my opinion... I have thick skin I can take it... Call me whatever names you want
