Quote:Why would anyone be embarrassed to be a Jags fan? On the contrary, we should be very proud to be Jags fans. It's easy to be a New England fan. Why would anyone be proud of that? That's like being born rich. Why should someone be proud of that? I'd be more proud to be born poor. And that's what we are in a sense. Jags fans aren't born with a silver spoon in their mouth, team-wise. We don't have the world handed to us every year, like a Pats fan. We are fighting through some long years of adversity.


So am I embarrassed to be a Jags fan? Hell no! I'm damn proud of it!

I relocated here and jumped aboard the Jags train when they came to town, I still am aboard the same train but I have and always will be a Pats fan first.


Like the Jags the Pats had so many terrible years, our stadium was one of the worst, toilets overflowed, drunken disappointed fans, losing our Monday Night Football participation due to drunken brawls.................wobbled into the Super Bowl only to get throughly embarrassed by the 85 Bears......................it took almost 20 years to climb back into contention. Before Brady we shuffled through quarterbacks much like the Jags have. Point is they may consistently make the playoffs each year but they had one heck of a losing streak much like the Jags.


Hopefully the Jags can find their way back into dominance. I am disappointed the way things have played out for the Jags but it might take a while. Our franchise twin has been to the dance and returns this year to the Super Bowl but they have also had tremendous highs and lows over twenty years!
