2 years no football downtown....

Taxslayer bowl year 1 --- 30,000,000 impact
Taxslayer bowl year 2 --- 30,000,000 impact
Florida Georgia year 1 ---  33,000.000 impact
Florida Georgia year 2 ---  33,000.000 impact
Jag year 1 ------------------ 30,000,000 impact
Jag year 2 ------------------ 30,000,000 impact

Total -----------------------  186,000,000

Additionally, all current stadium employees, consessions, grounds, mantenance, parking, security etc wave goodbye and good luck for the next 2 years.

Team travel expenses 8 additional games gotta be quite the expense.

Local fans lose 2 prime years of our QB's career after enduring many, many, many years of not having one. 

Taxslayer link below.  You can get each year of the Gator bowl off the City of Jax website as they track it in pretty good detail. I used 33 million as they vary between 30 and 35. The last link is other losses not included above.

Even with the figures removed. The biggest takeaway is that in bold above. We finally get a competent, bona fide superstar at the prime position in all of sports, only to turn around potentially and lose out on two years of his potential ascension into the upper echelon of QB's. No thanks. Pay the [BLEEP] extra fees. Keep the revenue here and stretch it out over four years. This two year idea is really, really souring everything for me as a fan.
