More like Rene Laudonierre's flagship, the Isabeau of Honfleur ;)
Do you believe that when the blue jay or another bird sings and the body is trembling, that is a signal that people are coming or something important is about to happen?

Wow - he's really rolling up his sleeves.

Anyone that does not support what this guy is trying to do needs to move asap. As a city, we really need to get behind him and the team. He's doing his part already. THANK YOU WAYNE AND DELORIS.

I have a great reserve respect for Mr. Khan, but I think you are "jumping the gun" too early on the entire Khan thing, DuvalDude. We aren't even into at least 6 months with Mr. Khan yet. It is better to judge a person AFTER the time allocated and any actions would speak for himself.

Not jumping the gun Josh. This man has a passion for Jacksonville and about making it a better place. And he is definately proving himself. Just what he has done with the franchise alone (hiring and reorganization) and the moves he is making with the city are actions that are speaking for themselves. If you know anything about Khan, he invests HEAVILY in any community he is a part of, just ask Illionios. (I mean come Khan has a school at UOI )He is a good guy, with good intentions and a good heart. Its about time we had someone with money who actucally cares about the city and making it a better place.

I wish Khan would've got in Jacksonville sooner.

PeeJayEss

He's not the Jag Owner we deserve, but the Jag owner we need.

Maybe he wants to increase the quality of the city via investment in order to increase population/attractiveness of Jax, in order that he might sell out some NFL football games properly. Make Jax a greater city, make the Jags a $2bil franchise, make Khan $$.

Maybe he'll even invest in UNF.

Can we stop substituting Khan for can? It's really not that clever.

excatly! Its two fold. Make Jacksonville a great city and people will want to live here. The market grows and that is more people for the Jags to draw from. His method is actually quite simple actually.

All I can say is.. I TOLD EVERYONE SO. He's going to do some good things for this city. I'd rather he own them than some bank.
Its going to take out of town money to make things better in Jacksonville, hopefully the GOB network is not powerful enough to run him off, their presence seems to be weaker than it once was. Very interesting.

Ashamed it takes an outsider who just moved here to realize the value of those buildings. With all the millionaires around this city, you would think they could step up, put thier money where their mouths are and do something to buy, rehab and make these buildings alive again. The non-group could have easily done something of this scale.
I totally agree. Kahn seems more like a Miami type of personality than a Jacksonville one. I often wonder if Jacksonville is "sexy" enough for someone like Kahn to hang around for decades. He doesnt seem like a country boy at all. Time will tell.
