State of the Franchise Presentation - 11AM Today

Quote:We're still doing all of this?! I thought we passed this proposal period!!!


If we can't get excited about this team, because clearly, then bring on some strip malls chock full of mattress firms and nail places! WOOT


The city decided to do another RFP to include the Met Park land in a hope to increase the chance at better proposals.


We shall see this week if adding the extra land actually helped encourage better proposals. I'd say it's a safe bet that it is Khan's land to lose.


The major hang up was the remediation cost of the soil but with Khan's latest proposal that section of land would be used as a park, which would allow them to not have to pay for a soil cleanup. Basically the Shipyards and Met Park are going to swap each other lol.

Quote:Does anyone know how many season ticket holders there are. Has it been mentioned or published somewhere?

 

It seems that since Khan took over a decision was made not to bring up any hard and fast numbers. Even before the blackouts were done away with by the league.

 

Perhaps I just missed some statement or publication. Just curious.
 Lamping mentioned today that they sold 60,000 tickets per game last year.

Quote:There is no doubt winning will fix a lot.

 

Barring a miracle in the next two years, it's likely this franchise will go 20 years without a home playoff game.

 

You'd have to be damn close to 30 years old to remember what a home playoff game is like.
 

I thought it was against the rules to have an NFL playoff game in Florida unless it is the Super Bowl...

Ha, just laugh that one out precisely indeed. The world would revolt. Firstly, countries not cities host the most esteemed trophy in the world. Ville barely handled an ethnocentric Superbowl. The World Cup? My dear hurricane, it's the World Cup. There is clout, then there is clout.
Success is a journey, not a destination.  Go all out Mighty Jaguars.

Precisely and why they will never have a fulltime NFL team there.
