11/30/1993 - Where were you when you heard the news?

#33

I had ESPN on in the background while doing some work.    When the announcement was made,  I was very happy for those in Jacksonville that worked so in getting an NFL Franchise.   Getting an expansion team was the ideal way of securing a franchise.   After seeing in the mid 1980's that the Jacksonville Bulls were the best supported franchise in the USFL,   I was convinced that Jacksonville deserved an NFL Franchise,  if the league expanded.    

 

One thing in particular that I recall from the ESPN coverage that day was Deron Cherry being interviewed.  Cherry was a minority owner of the Jaguars.  I'm not sure if he still owns a piece of the team.   I remember watching Cherry play Safety with the Chiefs at a pretty high level.
