This is the End
My beautiful friends
This is the End
My only friends, the End

Of our elaborate plans, the End
Of everything that stands, the End
No safety or surprise, the End
I'll never look into your eyes again

This is the End
My beautiful friends
This is the End
My only friends, the End

Welcome to the final Game Day thread of the 2024 season. Much was lost this year beyond the many games as the Jaguars franchise hits what feels like the lowest of lows we've experienced in our three decades of despair. All those hopes, dreams, and expectations for the season washed away by a fateful 30 seconds way back in Week 1 as the team just never recovered from the collapse in Miami. Today we say farewell to many players and perhaps leaders who will not be making their return next season. Mac Jones leads an offense that looks to get Brian Thomas Jr fully into the NFL spotlight. Really that's it. That's all we have to be joyful about this January day. I hope you'll enjoy the bitter taste of today's game, for win or lose...this is the End.

That game is on TV today at 1pm. I intend to be drunk by 1:01.

Thoughts, commentary, arguments, snark and perhaps some wistful hope for a new day tomorrow to follow throughout the day.
