It's an adjective. It could describe people, which would be offensive, but it can also describe places and things.  Gardner was describing Jacksonville.  The businesses, the vehicles, the swamps. They're all pretty white-trashy, if we're being honest.

I think it's great because it plays to (and makes fun of a little bit) the national perception, even the self-perception in some ways but Jacksonville like most cities is diverse. There are 'necks even in New York and LA. I just hope that if it turns out he really is a great player on the field, that the Jags never let him go because he could own the town, possibly own the league with his personality if he's also also got the ability to lead a team to championships.  

Long way to go to get there.
