Quote:With the amount of money the Jaguars make per year and Weaver's fortune, I'm kinda appalled that Ketchman didn't have that sort of compensation lined up for him here. I mean, we're not talking a mom & pop Deli here, we're talking multi million dollar business. They couldn't afford a pension for a team editor?? It wouldn't have cost that much in the scheme of things. 

 

It's no secret that the money made was not reinvested into the front office operation of the team.  In fact, they were constantly cutting costs to the point where they created fan programs to help sell tickets because they'd depleted the sales staff so dramatically. 

 

It may have been a multi-million dollar business, but it was run like a family shop. 

 

As soon as the deal closed and Khan assumed ownership of the team, one of the first moves he made was to renovate the ancient office space, and to expand the ticket sales department.  New desks, chairs, computers, the works.  I think as time progresses, we're going to see Khan continue to expand that mindset from a small market team that is just scraping to get by to one that is a world class organization.
