The Jacksonville Jaguars

[MEGATRON]

LMAO at folks blaming things on the refs.  The Jaguars are playing the worst damn home football that the NFL has seen in ten years and you are blaming a 17 point blowout on the refs.

I didn't watch the game last night, but nothing I've read about itâ€"outside of this threadâ€"has complained about lousy officiating. And sportswriters love to complain about that sort of thing. Could someone direct me to a non-biased report about it?

Who cares.  We were smoked by 17.

Great article... a must read for all Gene Smith defenders...

I'm sure the 'full disclosure' note at the bottom will cause some to roll eyes, but the tone of the whole piece was neither snide nor flippant, but something close to disappointment at the direction of the team.

Im gonna slip the refs some money under the table for the next home game. Its apprent thats why the Colts did. UN-believble 

What's apparent is that this team lacks talent and the entire front office, minus Lamping, should be blown up.  Time for an enema.

MEGATRON are you a Gator Fan or just a fairweather fan? Rome wasn't built overnight and the Jaguars are going through some had times. 

How do the Jaguars shortcomings have anything to do with the Gators?  (Outside of Harvey and Nelson?)

As for the hard times??  We've heard....it all has to do with parity and this process  of Gene's that 99% of us don't understand.

One of the new Shad Khan changes that I absolutely HATE is that Everbank Field is a barricade laden fortress now. When Weaver was the owner, you used to be able to come inside the gate, and walk the entire perimeter of the stadium; Now you cannot do that anymore as it's completely segmented off by officers, security, barricades, and every kinda deterrent that you can think of. My seats are in 216 near Gate 2; Where I park at, the nearest gate is Gate 3, that's where everyone who's coming down Duval St will be FORCEFULLY bottlenecked into, Gate 3. Causing me and other Gate 2ers  to go outta my way going up the Gate 3 ramp then crossing all the way over to Gate 2 that's ridiculous, and unnecessary. Then get this, later on in the middle of the game, they take down all of the barricades, really what's the purpose?

I have been to all but one game this year and haven't noticed what you are talking about. The only barricade I have seen is the entrance to the suites once inside the gates and you can walk right through the opening they have.

The only barricades inside the stadium is setup before 11AM.  You can walk inside the area outside the South End Zone only until 11AM, then you can enter any part of the stadium after that.  The only 'gates' that are open until 11AM are the ones to access this area.. which is referred to as the Sea Best Entertainment Zone.  You've never been able to enter the stadium anywhere else before 11AM for almost a decade.

Just to clear things up, I'm talking about arriving at the stadium at a normal time just before the game (around noon to 1:00PM). In the Gate 3 Gate 2 area, they are barricades everywhere. The last home two games, they have this extreme funneling process forcing you to cross Duval right where the traffic cop is, directly into Gate 3. People who want to go to Gate 2 cannot go directly there from Duval St. If yall don't see those barricades lining the entire length of the parking area "A", and the barricades that separate the Gate 2 and Gate 3 areas inside the gate, then you are blind, or couldn't have been in that particular area, I don't know what else to say. Any cheap parker who parks near Talleyrand, and have seats near Gate 2 knows exactly what I'm talking about. I have had season tickets for quite a while now, and I'm not gonna make up something just to make it up.

BS.  Any cheap parker parks somewhere near Market & Forsythe and walks... #freeparkingallthetime

^^^True, I should have been precise and said ten to fifteen dollar parker LOL

[MEGATRON]

I have not seen any such barricades and I walk all over the place.

^^^When was your last time attending at a game? If very recent, what Gate number did you enter into?
