Jaguars to partially abandon that hellhole Jacksonville

    No team ever gives up a home game to go to London when they're good.

    So the Jags' new owner has a four-year plan of sucking, at least.

    They MIGHT make more money from London than they would with another home date.

    It almost certainly will increase their merchandise sales.

    Guess it is time for more ticket giveaways at Winn Dixie, er Tesco.

    Poor Jacksonville. Rebuild the Gator Bowl with 20k fewer seats and you don't become a civic punchline.

    The British do not love our football.
    This is a total canard.
    The last game didn't even sell out with fans coming across the UK and Europe.
    It's an escalating money grab and nothing more.

    The fact that hondo's team is now:

    1. Owned by a Muslim

    2. Openly flirting with tea-and-biscuit-eating poofs in Europe

    ... makes me feel like this sounds less like reality and more like the cruelest episode of "Punk'd" that Ashton Kurcher has ever done.

    Very impressed hondo has ignored the obvious attempt to bait him -- in the thread title.

    Why? The logo is one of the best in the game.

    It's not even in the top 20 of logos.

    BTW, Ruckus should have his high school diploma taken away for this thread title.

    St. Louis fans can rejoice in getting another home game, or as informed fans call it, trying to get more money for stadium renovations.

    Am I the only one that found the lede strange in that it included Ross?

    Haters gonna hate. Can't quite figure out why people who don't live in Jacksonville rip it continually and who don't have a dog in the fight blast the Jaguars so often. Whatever. Shad Khan is proving to be one helluva owner so far and no one cares what his religious orientation is.
