We know that even the drunk white fans are finally beginning tobe turned offby the endless epidemic of serious crimes being committed by black football players.
Another possible hopeful sign is that the Jaguars are having a difficult time selling tickets despite showing improvement in the Del Rio coaching era with two winning seasons out of three including a 12-4 mark in '05 followed by a one and out in the playoffs.
The team hadveryloud and loyal support when Tom Coughlin ran the team. Coughlin's teams, which routinely had 9 and 10 white starters,were phenomenally successful efforts for an expansion franchisethat nearly made it to the Super Bowl in just its third season of existence.
When theJaguars fellto mediocre status after a few seasons as a top AFC contender, Coughlin moved on anda young master of Caste System politics took over named Jack Del Rio. Despite Del Rio's impressive turnaround of the team, the city doesn't have the same passion for theJaguars that it did before. What other reason for this could there be than the fans are not in tune with the organization's seeming determination to employthe blackest team in NFL historyon a yearly basis. Can it be that the fair-minded white sports fans wholove to root for black athletes and even teams that are predominantly black,change once a team becomes (minus the kickers and long snapper) in the area of 90 percent Negro with only a rare white or two visible on the field of play during games, that a tipping point is reached wherebymany white fans become turned off or at best tepid supporters of the team?
The answer would appear to be yes, especially when none of the few whites are stars. Only Matt Jones has the potential to be a star, but working in an overwhelmingly hip hop environment with four black quarterbacks, three of whom throw poorly with only Byron Leftwich occasionally able to muster some streaks of accuracy, it will be nearly miraculous if Jones can thrive in such a situation. Further, the Jags are reminiscent of the coal black Saints under Jim Haslet -- the Saintshad some definite offensive talent but rarely could put it together, especially in important games and important individual drives. They were the least disciplined team and the one that regularly choked under the "leadership" of Aaron Brooks.
NFL teamsmodeled almost exclusively after the demographics of Grambling and Howard are doomed to failure, and they also turn off their home fans, who expect at least some whites on the home team to root for.
From Draft Daddy:
Not too long ago the Jacksonville Jaguars were insanely popular in Northern Florida, but these days they are struggling to fill the seats at an already significantly downsized Municipal Stadium.
DD.Comment: The Jaguars are suddenly so cold in the city of Jacksonville that the ownership can't even sell the naming rights to Municipal Stadium, now that Alltel's lowpaying deal (by N.F.L. standards) has expired.
