They said the exact same thing OVER 5 years ago: Jags will be gone in 5 years.

And yet, here they still are.

And them staying here is in no way contingent on more Super Bowls coming here.

How soon is another SB coming to NY? Are the Giants leaving too?

Most thought the SB was just fine. I talked to people who came here. Did you?

Oh, that's right: You're just a hater who lives in a ****** place of the country. Gotcha!

Jags voted best fan experience at their stadium. And we wear shorts and flip flops to the games, if not swimming suits.

Looking at that I'm hoping for a December game at Miami to get the **** out of the cold for a few days
 
Let's see, Shao Kahn becomes Jags owner in Jan. 2012 with no written agreement to keep the franchise there, just a verbal one. In Aug. of 2012, Shao Kahn agrees to play Jag games in London from 2013-2016. In July of 2013, Shao purchases London's Fullham FC. In October of 2015, Shao extends the Jags London deal to 2020. Certain league and team officials will claim the London revenue helps to keep the Jags in Jacksonville. And yet another round of "enhancements" to the Jags stadium is coming on the backs of taxpayers after the first round of "improvements" included ripping out nearly 10,000 seats in favor of swimming pools. Part of these new enhancemetns is a flex cover for a portion of the field. Why? So they can use the field for something other than football. Once the NFL works out the particulars for their London franchise obsession, hate to break it to some fans, but the Jags are first on the list.

And how many owners have written contracts saying they can't move the team? Care to guess? Do the Rooneys?

And you know this is going to happen, how?

They've been saying Jags will be moving for over 8 years.

The Rooneys have been the original owners since '33. Why would they need to sign an agreement?

And? And it's hilarious. You guys are lapping it up. Paying for things you think are going to keep the team there.

For some major concerts and other sporting events, but none that I know of that require the use of extra coverage for smaller gatherings that would occur much more frequently.

From looking at the facts. There's currently only one team in the league building a London brand.

You said 5 years, now it's 8. 8 years ago is when their attendance really started to hit the *******. I suppose there may have been a small threat of relocation then, but there were no serious plans for expansion or relocation then. LA has always been on the radar, but with no serious plans for a stadium being brought forth, it was never a real threat. The multi year deal for one team in London didn't become a thing until Shao and the Jag's plan in 2013. The league thought they had the Rams to do it in 2012, and then they backed out. Shao and the kitty kats were all too happy to take their place.

Isnt Shao Kahn Mortal kombat?! Lol. That right there made me lose half a brew out the nose!!! Funny ****
 
In all seriousness. These guys are business men. Wherever the $$$ or in Shao's case the €€€ leads them. American feetsball needs to expand worldwide. I think it's a neat idea imo

Travel is bad. I agree. From a paper stnadpoint it's a damn neat idea. Realistic speaking, not good. I agree. It's a disservice to the Jags and to who ever travels. Take back my statement on being a Euro team

A simple question which you dodged. Kahn should be vilified for not signing a will-not-move commitment, but it doesn't apply to others? Double standards much?



And? And it's hilarious. You guys are lapping it up. Paying for things you think are going to keep the team there.

"You guys?" I'm not paying a dime for anything. We have no taxes here and I get my luxury box tickets comped. Zero cost. All fun. While you stare at overweight moms in thick winter clothes, we soak in "10s" in bikinis. One of those things is better than the other.

So, you don't have a point. OK.

Which lines Kahn's and Jax's pockets.

But I thought Jags were destined for LA? That's what people like you claimed, and here LA did get a team, and the Jags were nary a mention. What happened to that prediction, smart guy? Jags were never even brought up, while constant improvements keep going on at the stadium and general fan experience. They were ruled the best fan experience of any team in the NFL. Did you know that? Jag fans are all chilled out, in shorts, flip flops, while starting at "10's" in bikinis. It's a tough job, but someone has to do it.

What did I dodge? You asked if the Rooneys signed a no move clause. The Steelers were never sold, so how in the world would they need to sign a no move clause? You make no sense. Your deflection of bringing other owners into this doesn't mean anything. The point is this, there is nothing forcing Shao to keep the team there. So the Jag fans that want to think there's no way he will move the team are delusional.

Half of that, $45 mill, is being funded by the city. That means "you", the people that live there.

I never said **** about the Jags moving to LA. Once Shao Kahn made the London deal, I knew exactly what he was/is potentially hoping for. Like I already said, the LA thing was never a real option until this year because there was never a real stadium deal until now. And the Jags were never a contender for that move this year because Shao has other arrangements and ideas.
