Here's the full rundown on everything he was asked today while in Arizona.
"Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, if he gets angry, he's a mile away and barefoot."

Man, that is some great insight from the owner right there. Shad seems to have a great perspective on this whole thing. Yhanks for sharing~

This is how an owner should be. Pro-active in whats going on but doesn't get in the way. Putting a win-number for Bradley to "keep his job" only hurts this team. Of course there is a number. Keep to yourself (like hes doing). It only causes distractions.


Can't wait to see whats next.

Hooray for not having Silent Stan or that type of owner.

Not excited to see more home games go to London... Maybe if they ship them one of the preseason games too I could get behind it.

On the London games once they get to the point of 5 games per season there I think one of them should be a preseason game. If they really want to use the international series as a gauge for seeing if a team is viable in London then sale a season package to the 5 games with one of them a preseason game and see how that is also supported when 20% of your cost goes for a meaningless game.

I hear ya but like many others, I think it contributes to the ultimate financial health of the franchise which ultimately means the team stays here.  Shad looked at the smallest fan base in the league and asked "how can we change that?" and the answer is to get the Jags a big following in the largest city in Europe.

I'm condescending. That means I talk down to you.

Jags are up to number 2 in popularity Internationally.  This is an area that is going to help big time financially.  Not to mention if he puts 1 billion into the shipyards project make it a full time partnership with London for all I care at that point.

It really sounds like he wants to make Jacksonville a place to visit year round. Hopefully I can say I have finally visited Big Grin

Do we count Turkey as part of Europe these days?  Tell that to Erdogan.

London has a larger metro then Istanbul but after you get past 10 million or so it probably doesn't matter.

Istanbul (not Constantinople), is basically the border between Europe and Asia.

Quality reference right there my good man.
I'm trying to make myself more informed and less opinionated.

Stop saying whatever stupid thing you're talking about and pay attention to all the interesting things I have to say!
