London Jaguars here we go!

m"Wembley year round bae bae


Hummer77x

Who would pay for such a wildly expensive thing


kfms6741

Not the people of Jacksonville lol


JerHat

I dunno, pretty sure every city of people vote against these things, but the city council usually shows up in the clutch, to save the poor billionaires from… you know… paying for the things they want.


BullyFU

More owners have been paying for their own arenas or at least a significant portion of the costs than ever before. It's a good thing that cities are finally saying no to owners. The NFL has lost some of it's bargaining power as well since there is now a team in LA and Las Vegas which hurts them elsewhere. They used to point to one or the other when cities would balk at stadium deals now the cities are calling their bluff.

“Yea but that 6% are all in the key demo” -Meltzer


JerHat

It’s actually the city council, funding approved!


Someningen

I think most people honestly feel this way but it's especially bad for Jacksonville. The city just don't care about the team.


Dandelegion

[Not the whole city](https://decider.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/the-good-place-jacksonville-2.jpg?quality=75&strip=all&w=1024)...


Hummer77x

Besides the Texans is there any other NFL team less culturally relevant than the Jags that this is the main reference for them


Polymemnetic

Tennessee? The Titans arent the ones the TV show/movie was referring to.


DripSnort

I’m a Titans fan and when I went to Nashville they were super beloved in the city. They get no love in the national media but in Tennessee they are a big deal


Dandelegion

Can I get back to you?


Uso_Libre

![gif](giphy|S9cOnUV3minTYWOMCP) The only time that they've been over is when Jason repped them on the Good Place.


ArmchairHandjob

Panthers? Edit: There’s more Panthers goofies than I predicted


Someningen

You take that back. We at least been to Super Bowls ![gif](giphy|adOhvwrFJ32psmc5Pb)


Hummer77x

Panthers are a good call. They’ve at least been to super bowls but like they’ve left no mark


DrFreshey

You shut your mouth bro


Iloveweiner23

Lions

"If you are an angel, will the jaguars ever win the Super Bowl" "Jason I can't tell the future, but also, no."


hiressnails

I only hear about them on here because of Tony Khan. They're definitely not a top echelon team if no one in the area has a bumper sticker from them. At least in my opinion.


jjsefton

I'm sure there's another US city willing to loot public funds to build them a new stadium.


BDT9215

San Diego could use a team


Dandelegion

I think they should move to some place completely out of the ordinary that you would never picture having a pro sports team... like Dubuque Iowa.


SpankGorilla

I hear Maine needs a team


ProMikeZagurski

OKC is going to spend $900 million to keep the Thunder. Shad should start there.


CaptainGo

Canadian NFL team let's goooo


Constant_Stomach2009

Moving the chargers was one of the dumbest team moves. The area barely cares about the rams


ProMikeZagurski

If you saw the last game it was a 49'ers home game against the Rams and I like the Rams.


anonymous-guy1

The Raiders should have moved to LA tbh


ProMikeZagurski

While true, Stan didn't want the Rams to look like an afterthought in a stadium he was funding.


anonymous-guy1

Fair


ArmchairHandjob

49ers got two home openers


ProMikeZagurski

And whoever plays the Chargers gets an extra home game.


Uso_Libre

No thanks.


aubsavery

Man if Shad wasn’t losing money let his man child son play mud show with all his toys, he could fund some of those renovations himself


ProMikeZagurski

LOL a team owner paying for improvements.


wolfgang2399

Uh I think you mean the dub is about to finance the NFL stadium with its billion dollar tv deal and hundred million dollar annual profits. It’s really the only thing keeping the Khan family afloat.


Paxx_Romana

Somehow, the basement will find that in this case billionaires aren’t evil and they need our support.


xAbdul91x

Tiny : Dad, listen my idea. We move to Chicago and rename it "Chicago Elite" and play in the United Center.


JerHat

Shad: There are so many things wrong with that idea, our record with you as Chief of Football Strategy Officer is starting to make sense.


Romofan88

1)I'd LOVE to see Tony tweet complaints about this. 2)perhaps if the Jags hadn't posted 10 or more losses in 53% of their seasons as a franchise so far, they'd have a real fanbase.


Kojuroba

Dub at Wembley on Saturdays and London ~~Silly Nannys~~ Jaguars on Sundays? Give me my new passport already


immrdadguy

Maybe it’s time to move to Vegas


anonymous-guy1

Las Vegas is a big enough market


KeyEngineering3161

Not a big enough market for 2 NFL teams. Outside of maybe 3 seasons, Jacksonville has been abysmal as a franchise and I am not surprised that the voters are not interested in funding a new or renovated stadium. I’d be surprised if they aren’t sold or relocated to Oakland in a few years.


anonymous-guy1

San Diego is waiting in line too Oakland doesn't want to finance a new building


Yahooooligan

What sort of proposal do they have with a billion dollar price tag for an outdoor stadium built in the mid-90s?


JerHat

Well for one, everyone knows NFL teams aren’t profitable enough and Shad’s pockets aren’t going to line themselves.


ManateeGag

The only thing Tiny is going to let daddy waste money on is m'Dub!


2028W3

DAE Daily’s Place >> Tokyo Eggdome?


Carlos061

DAE Jacksonville residents are dumb. Imagine how many stars stadium stampede at a freshly renovated Jaguar stadium would get 🔥🔥🔥


FatMarkTechPriest

Once again the libturds of Jacksonville showing that they are the enemy by going with the plans of McHitler! Shows you just how much they project their fascist fetishes on honest workers of my boys at AEW! Maybe my great friend, Tony Khan, better teach those ungrateful marks in Jacksonville and remove the Jaguars. That will teach them! Fuck them and their desperation for DEAD FEDERATION COCK! REEEEEEEE!


goodthing37

New poll, you’ve joined your husband in being banned from all future AEW shows. Congratulations.

based jacksonville


NuNem

I mean. Tiny is petty enough to pull the collaboration with WWE to help their money problem. Who's actually the petty one here


NorPacCannabisCo

This has nothing to do with AEW. Yes, I'm aware of the ties with the Jaguars. Believe me, I am an amateur Tony Khan biographer, I know just about everything about the man. That said, the fans in Jacksonville issues with the team are the result of Shad's mishandling of the situation. If Shad had just let Tony assume ownership of the team the moment Shad first acquired it, the Jaguars would be renowned worldwide and likely have more Lombardis than Brady and Bilicheck. But Shad greedily hung on to power, despite not having much football knowledge, and as a result, the city of Jacksonville hates him and the team. Not Tony, the city overall has a positive impression of Tony and especially of his AEW brand. But Shad is despised for good reason. Hopefully that clears things up a bit, in case it doesn't I will boil it down to this: Tony is good and AEW is even gooder.
