The Mad Dog, 

 

Did you hear any [BAD WORD REMOVED] while you were at tonight's practice? I know I didn't. Chime in with what you heard so we can get to the bottom of this.

The problem is people really have become so inoculated to the lyrics and really don't think they are offensive. Sad.
 

I'm in full agreement.

Whats the difference. I can't comment because I wasn't there?? I can still empathize with the situation. You and a few others are being team lackeys on this issue. The OP has a legit point.

Personally, I've never paid attention to the music at the practices, but you still don't want to play anything that's got vulgarities in it because of the broad spectrum of audience you're catering to. 

 

It's possible people didn't hear it because they weren't really listening.  I seriously doubt someone would complain about this if they didn't hear it. 

Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

And rightly so.  You shouldn't have to be concerned about the music being played during practices with your child in attendance.  Those who don't understand this are children themselves.

The practice was at a school...there should be no inappropriate music on the play list. Period.

Quote:1. The music that the Jags play at practices are the same no matter if they’re in St. John’s County or at the facility at the stadium.

 

2. The music played at the practices is diverse (rock, hip-hop, pop, etc.). It’s reflective of the music tastes of the players, coaches and the coveted demographic of 18 y/o – 40 y/o males. The team has a resident D.J. that does a good job of mixing things up.

 

3. Though some of the rock and hip-hop songs have explicit versions I have never heard them at any Jaguars practice or game so I don’t know what you’re talking about. I’d love to know what [BAD WORD REMOVED] you thought you heard.

 

 

 

 

Tonight, I saw face painting, picture taking and autograph signings with the Roar and players, and all sorts of other family friendly things PLUS the Bartram athletic boosters had to make a killing from the snack sales. Seems very family friendly to me. 
OP clowned himself! They always play the EDITED versions of all the music at every game, practice or public event, so the I'm sure the OP is trolling. Exactly zero chance they actually played a song that is even PG.

LEONARD FOURNETTE FAN CLUB PRESIDENT. I WAS BEHIND HIM WHEN YOU ALL SAID HE WAS BRANDON JACOBS. QUIT HATING ON THE JAGUARS. GUS IS GONE. COUGHLIN HAS RESTORED ORDER. FOURNETTE IS FRED TAYLOR. DONT BELIEVE ME JUST WATCH.

I was not there, wish I could have made it, but I find it hard to believe there were songs being played with cuss words in it over the loud speakers.

I dispute that the Jags played “vulgar” music. Rap in and of itself isn’t vulgar, it’s a unique type of music just like country or gospel or classic rock. Still, I understand that when some hear it they only think of the type that does include adult lyrics.

 

No one around me seemed to have any problem at all with what they heard. That’s what’s so odd about this thread. It’s like his hearing was different than others from others there. How is that possible?

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And to the notion that it was a “family” event because it was in the suburbs…

 

I for one don’t think a practice in St. John’s county means it’s more of a family event than the same event in Duval county.

 

I see plenty of kids of all ages at Jags practices at their facility in Duval County.

 

Am I missing something?

It does seem unlikely...but accidents do happen.

If they did it would have been a change, as you said they play edited versions.

That sucks that you had to be surprised by that and your child heard that. And I agree that because the organization and team want to be more family/fan oriented, this should have been either prevented or addressed to the public about possible language. However, at some point in time, our kids are going to hear this stuff. We all try to bottle them up and prevent them from receiving this information. My children know some bad words, but they know they aren't supposed to say them or repeat them (until they become adults; in which they can decide for themselves). It's up to us as parents to address this, not blame others for making the information available. This is football and we know that our team likes to play music during practice; and hip-hop, regardless of your opinion of the music genre, is very popular and can get people very hype. I listen to all types of music and have no problem with foul language in music. I don't make it visible to my kids yet, because they don't understand where the music comes from. So I understand your concerns. But we all know what kind of music plays during practice. If the kids aren't old enough or informed enough on what they hear, they shouldn't be permitted to go. Right or not, harsh or not, you just gotta make a choice. I don't think the music will change, they just may need to find some edited versions.

GO JAGS!!

Thats my point exactly!!! 

 

If it was a regular practice at the normal Jags field, then fine. This was a guest appearance at a school and was likely going to be more family centric.

There's nothing wrong with the songs played by the DJ when at the Jags facility. I am not seeing the issue if that was the case as someone has pointed out already.

Location has zero to do with it being a family event.  The focus of the Jaguars has been to make every event they host a family friendly event. 

 

It's possible the music they played didn't have any vulgarities in it, as I tend to think if it did, Gus would have had them shut it off.
