"But our biggest issue is the lack of club sales. You'll see gaping holes on the east side of the stadium Sunday. It's an aweful eye sore for the stadium to be full except for the empty seats between the the 30's. Oh well."

I have been a Jaguars club seat holder since day 1. These seats are a bit expensive. My two seats cost approximately $5,800 for a season. That works out at about $290 (including taxes, etc.) per seat per game. In today's economy, that's a bit steep for a lot of people. Typically, corporate sponsors actually fill these seats in most stadiums, the Jaguars' inlcuded. Unfortunately, small businesses are finding it increasingly difficult to justify these costs.

The stadium will be loud this week for the Browns game. I hope for a good game with no major injuries to either team.

There fan base is the worse in the NFL, and I will be at the game, so 50% of people there will be Browns fans....

This is an outdated perception. Number of Jaguar home games this season = 5. Number of black-outs this season = 0. The only real potential black-out based on game ticket sales = Cleveland Browns (not much in the way of a natural rivalry). Early season nonsense: Natonal sports media projected more Broncos fans than Jaguar fans would attend the Jag season opener. Ask the Denver fans who attended - very little orange and blue in the stadium (most of which was Florida Gator attire) and a sea of teal.

One must realize that the Jaguars are a relatively new team and in a relativley small market. It take times to grow a fan base that is willing to take bad seasons along with the good. That now appears to be happening here in Jacksonville. Only a relatively few premium seats (club and sky box) have gone unsold (not unusual in the NFL, especially this year) during the first five home games. I suspect the game will not be blacked-out.

Enjoy your stay for the game, but if you are expecting to have a 50% Browns' representation and a dog pound, I believe you will be disappointed. If the Jags show up to play, this will be a close game.

Let's hope for a good game with no major injuries to either team.
