This causes Jacksonville to lose voter support for an upgraded stadium, so Khan hammers out a new stadium deal with St. Louis and moves the team. Without a team as a revenue stream to improve the stadium, the Florida Georgia game is moved to Atlanta and Jacksonville spirals downward as a sports town. In reaction, local taxes are raised considerably, cheered on by the citizens who always hated the Jags. Economic collapse follows accompanied by commercial and residential flight. In a bizarre twist, Trent Baalke is elected as mayor whose first act is to abolish the police and fire departments because ‘they just aren’t a priority for a city. More linebackers are what’s really needed.’

We’ll be fine. Should I consider a Xanax prescription?

I always said it would be impossible to make a tacks fan out of me but that just might do it, ha! Nah, I'd become a WNBA fan first.

Which brings up a good theoretical question. If the Jags were to leave Jacksonville, would you continue to root for them in their new home, or choose another team to support?

I would probably adopt that weird psychological dichotomy of a spurned ex who just can't let go. I would cheer the new Jags if they won while also reveling in their losses.  

Don't do this to me, Jags! You have to win today.
