I just wanted to take a minute to say thank you to my fellow Jag fans, the greatest fan base in the NFL! Trust me I'm not poking fun or being facetious. As I watch the game I had an epiphany and its something I felt like sharing. I know this may come off as soft, especially considering the circumstances of today's game results. But I wont apologize for what Im about to say. 

 

 Thank you! Thank you to Jacksonville and the incredible fans that root for the home team week in and week out. This morning I went out and rode my bike for my morning 15 mile trek listening to fat tony and the Heel girls excited for today's contest. I was full of energy, excitement and anticipation. As the game unfolded my emotions quickly changed from hype to anger to apathy to sorrow to hope. Yes, Hope! Of all the sophomoric posts and sarcasm and immature posts over the years Im making a serious post about my Jags. But ultimately I want to say Im thankful.

 

Thank you to St. Vincent's for delivering my baby girl so many years ago (she's a freshman now), thank you to Shahid Khan for saving us from hell. Thank you for my education in tech school, Thank you for my best man and fellow jag fan (well cry in our beers after the game) thank you Dave Caldwell for drafting the core of our team that will see better days and who will have a future to build on. Thank you to BCB for being the face of Jag fans and traveling to see our team struggle through our youth!

 

But seriously thank you to Gus Bradley! Yes I said thank you to Gus, for holding the ship down while our worst days will soon be behind us and being the scapegoat. You did a hard job and your time is almost up. No one else credible would've taken this challenge and you sacrificed your career for it. That took guts! Thanks for trying! 

 

Fellow jag fans I know it sux, but somehow some way lets appreciate the future together.
