Jacksonville has a lot of potential.  We have the largest land area of any city in the US.   We have terrific beaches,  education, and a lot of good people here. But thats just my opinion,  here are both sides of the story.

This is on espn.com,  and wasn't written by me.  However,  it is very relevent in Jacksonville.  Considering we are facing blackouts this season.

With rookie saleries skyrocketing and teams willing to pay them,  unproven players have been getting more and more money.  However, Crabtree (10th pick in the draft) is asking for more money than where he was picked at. He is asking for top 5 money.

Can we replace Percy Harvin on the offence next season?

Everyone knows the famous dynasty teams.  The 70s Steelers, the Boston Celtics, and the Cleveland Browns are a few.  All of these teams have their place in history as some of the most dominant teams in their time.  All of them won multiple titles.  Within a decade they all established themselves as winning teams. 

The Florida Gators football team has done this.  But are the Gators one of them?  They have won 2 of the last 3 national championchips.  They have dominated their conference in those two years.  I don't think they would be a dynasty team yet. But with the possibility of a third title in 4 years,  they may become one.  The only thing in their way is themselves.  Not many teams have the combination of talent and big game experience that the Gators do.

So what do you think? Could the Gators be considered a dynasty by the end of next year?

WIth a chance at a 2009 championchip in the Florida Gators sight, their schedule will be an important factor for them.  Here is their scedule in order.

1.Charleston Southern             7. Arkansas                                

2.Troy                                           8. at Mississippi State

3. Tennessee                             9. Georgia          

4. at Kentucky                            10. Vanderbilt

5. Bye Week                               11. at South Carolina         

6. at LSU                                     12. Florida International

                                                     13. Florida State

Looks to be a good  schedule with a good bye week right in the middle of the season.   I'm glad we have a bye week before LSU, because they seem to be a good team, but just struggled with consistency last year.  You can't get a much better shedule for a national champion.

I'm not going to preach how awful the BCS is, or how we "have to have" a playoff. I'm going to try to be as neutral as possible. But I am going to put in a few facts about the BCS, and what I think we should do if we were to have a playoff system.

Just remember, the BCS has signed a longterm contract with ESPN to show its bowl games.  So it might not be as easy as it seems to change a system.

   Is there really an excuse for what happened when we played Pittsburg?  Ben Rothlisburger threw up and down the feild, he was just playing pitch and catch out there.  When i was watching I kept saying, "theres no way hes gonna complete that pass".

  Then the I see downfeild, and there is a reciever wide open with no one within ten yards of him.  Is this the defensive coordinators mistake, the players mistake, or about half in half?  Whatever the problem is, we need to fix it RIGHT NOW!!!!  The Jags were known for a hard-hitting, hard-nosed defence.  Now we look like the stock market, on the verge of bottoming out.

   Somebody please tell me what happened!  We don't look like AFC contenders anymore, we are struggling to stay in the race.  We need to destroy the next 3 teams we face, and we will be right back in the mix.
