From 3000 miles away, please do not come any closer.
Just another thing for Khan and Co to concentrate on instead of Fulham
A happy Khan sports interest will lead to a Happy Khan supporting another sports interest............us
Can't believe there's NO mention anywhere on the Jacksonville forum about recent Fulham match.
Expected to see a thread called FULHAM go 6-8-6!
😂😂
I always thought a super bowl was a Jimmy Anderson hatrick.
Hope they go to the SuperBowl and makes a lot of money and wired some into Fulham FC :)
Serious question - how far are jags predicted to go this year? Are they Super Bowl contenders?

We might stand a chance of winning with that formation.
Jacksonville has been one of the two or three big surprises of the this year's NFL season. Their defense is very very good. Maybe best in the entire league. A fine young quarterback, some good targets to throw to. RogerinVirginia's post is right on--if his NFL football team makes him happy about owning a sports team, there should be some spillover effect on the real football team across the pond. They are likely to make the playoffs. That means a lot more income, TV coverage revenues, merchandise sales spikes. He won't have to reach into his back pocket for more money for his NFL team. They are quietly building something good in Jacksonville. And hopefully Shad will turn more attention to Fulham now that he doesn't have to sweat his Jaguars so much any more.
I wonder how many Fulham fans give a monkey's what happens in whatever sport the Jags play. Certainly I don't.

I don't either, it's not even a Sport, it's more a game, wearing suits of armour to protect their frail little bodies.

Stuff the bloody Jags. The Bills are letting me down yet again 😠😠😠

You have to look at the bigger picture. He owns another team in a different sport. A big money team in a much bigger money league. It has to have been a source of real frustration to him. Yet, he's poured money into that other team. The stadium, the concessions, the shops, the expansion plans continue, the parking, the enormous Jumbotron video screen hoisted above the field, the nice locker facilities, the training facilities. Money going out. Lots of money. And finally he has a good product in an odd corner of the country. Jacksonville, Florida. Miami has its Dolphins NFL team. Tampa Bay has its Buccaneers. Not much room in the inn for a mediocre team given the population density within an easy drive of the stadium. Picks up some eastern Georgia residents as fans. But they have their Atlanta Falcons team. Some South Carolina fans for sure. St. Augustine too. It's not New York, or London, or L.A. Of course, he didn't pay the purchase price that attends a big media market club and team.
No one is laughing at Jacksonville any more. Not the laughing stock of the league. The place where you go for an almost-assured win to pad your regular season record as you hope to make the lucrative playoffs. Not any more. They are for real. Best defense in the league. A quality team.
You don't care about any of that, I know. But you should. Let's say you had two children. You already know where I'm going with this, don't you? One is bleeding you dry for money and you don't see any indication of a light at the end of the tunnel. The other is across the ocean, in a huge city with rabid entrenched fans, a name known across the country, respected. This other child--let's call him Fulham. Was in the top league and for a long time when you adopted him. At a price commensurate with the league and history of staying up. Then it all goes south. Revenue from TV rights gone. Now in a league out of which it's hard to climb. A merry-go-round of managers. Good players leaving. Nearly relegated further down not once but twice since then.
To whom do you spend your available time and money assisting, getting actively involved. When both are in a bad way, you devote yourself more to the team with more money at stake, more upside potential, the one likely to give you more personal strokes. Adulation. And all that. But now that other team has its act together. Things have turned around. Looking good. So now he can afford to turn his attention to Fulham, and see if he can't get him to graduate. He doesn't own this team in a vacuum. If Jacksonville remained a major drag, it might so upset him he might sell us to some weird Dr. No owner from Thailand that never takes off his sunglasses indoors, or a sheik or kleptocratic oligarch from a certain cold country, or a Rob Peter to Pay Paul hardware store chain owner from the Midlands, or god knows what. I like Shahid Khan. He's approachable, a good guy, says the right things, won't embarrass the club, and in his own way is--and I don't know this for sure, but I believe it anyway--trying to do right by the club. A happier Shad is an owner more likely to spread the cash to help younger son Fulham get to the next level.
The above all makes sense FF and I care in the sense that it may induce Khan to put more focus and investment into Fulham. But I cannot bring myself to care about American Football. To those who enjoy it, fine, it's just not for me.

I can't see how his US football team doing OK has any bearing on FFC. Totally different system - after a bad season do we get first shout on promising young players from top teams? Of course not.

Good Season.
You know what they call Buffalo, New York? The City of No Illusions. You want a hard winter? Go live in Buffalo. :)
There were two Male Buffalo standing on top of a hill looking down into a valley at a herd of Female Buffalo.
The young Male Buffalo said to the older Male Buffalo. Let's gallop down the hill and grab a Female Buffalo each.
The older Buffalo replied, I have a better idea, let's stroll down the hill slowly and grab the whole herd.

Packers play the Browns this week...... why do i sense they'll get their first win? They've got a good D.
My son is a Green Bay Packers fan, having spent a year and a half at the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay, and in their soccer (football) program before transferring to NYU (thank god). He loves the Packers. The fans own the club. No, really. There's nothing quite like it in major league sports in the U.S. He's also been a long time fan of Arsenal, but finds it hard to follow that club any more. Like so many Arsenal fans, he quickly gets angry and argumentative on that topic... In any event, the Packers are in Wisconsin, famous as a dairy state. And as a dairy state, cheese making is huge in Wisconsin. A lot of the best domestic cheese comes out of Wisconsin. As a result, probably the best sports fan head wear ever created -- the cheese hat -- became a staple fixture at Packers games and game watch parties. And when you wear one, you're known as a cheese head. The name eventually transcending the object and became a shorthand expression to identify Packers fans, as in, "Don't talk to that idiot. He's a cheese head." They've been known to wear those weighty triangular cheese wedge foam hats with no coat or shirt in the dead of winter at home games. Brrrrr. Here's a photo (hope you can open it): http://www.gettyimages.com/detail/news-photo/green-bay-packer-fan-displays-his-cheese-head-during-a-1990-news-photo/81310716
Yeah, I even bought one. But only because my son briefly went to school there. The entire city drinks beer like you wouldn't believe. Good people.
I follow 3 teams but rarely watch it
Washington Redskins Wifes family
Jaguars Mr Khan

I don't want to sound unfriendly or without a lack of understanding. But to me its an alien game that I feel has less content than paper, rock, scissors, and reduces the effect of discussing a real and proper Sport, Association Football played by men and women all over the world.
Whereas this bowl game which is in comparison, apart from not being part of our culture, is not worthy of being on the same board as Association Football.
This non sporting Mickey Mouse full of endless hype event should be on another Forum, perhaps a Cartoon Forum, as that's all it is a Cartoon.
Full of little boys afraid to pick up a bruise or two, in suits of armour doing high fives just because somebody broke wind.
It's lowering the tone of our interlectral debates on a real Sport.
Of course I can walk on by and ignore it, but why should I, and the temptation to make a comment or two is far too tempting, as you more or less set yourselves up for it, although you may not understand that.
I feel I have more empathy with the daily life of a Dung Beetle than the Jags, which I give absolutely no thought about whatsoever. I am a Fulham FC Supporter.
Apart from that I can just about live with it, which is what I said before the Doctor lanced a painful boil under my armpit when I was 12 years old.

Dunno what walking in your shoes has to do with anything when your contributions to this thread show you don't know what you're talking about. "Little boys who are afraid to pick up a bruise." It's literally one of the most dangerous sports out there, regardless of whether you think it lacks skill or content. There are guys who can sprint near-Olympic pace with the physique of heavyweight boxers, running into each other at full speed over and over again during matches. The pads stop people from dying. Again, just take ten seconds to Google NFL's history with concussions and neck injuries rather than getting offended about people forming judgements based on your own comments.

I wonder how many Fulham fans give a monkey's what happens in whatever sport the Jags play. Certainly I don't.
I don't either, it's not even a Sport, it's more a game, wearing suits of armour to protect their frail little bodies.
Give me Ludo any day.
If you did just ten seconds of research into American football, you'd feel silly for taking the piss out of them wearing pads. This is coming from someone who doesn't like the sport.
When you have walked in my shoes then you can count yourself qualified to make such a statement, but of course you aren't.

Plus one, and that coming from someone who is not into the sport at all. But then i'm not into modern pentathlon, doesn't mean I insult those who participate and take the mick out of the sport.

Don't make me laugh, 064.gif bunch of Snowflakes the lot of you.
It proves what a stupid game it is, when a player wears a suit of armour and still gets himself injured, brains of a rocking horse.
Seattle Seahawks tonight. Both 8-4:
Tough game for the Jags!
Win this and the rest of the run-in looks better.
To Jags. 😁
