Jacksonville vs. Atlanta. The cracker bowl.

You got to be kidding...Is there a team in "Jacksonville" where is that? Who is that? I do like your term..."cracker bowl." You don't mean "Jacksonville Florida"? Do You?.. Does that town have an NFL team?
as stated before..."I know nothing"....thank you for reading this one.....................

wait a moment....I googled Jacksonville............and immediately came up with Jaguars. Didn't they play yesterday???? oops.....................my lack of football interest is showing again...

The Jacksonville Jaguars led New England in the American Conference championship game at halftime -- but Brady pulled off one of his miracles. As a Philly fan (my wife would shoot me otherwise) I was hoping for Jacksonville.

I laughed at “cracker bowl” too though.

I've seen it derived from "braggart" but I think it really refers to the nasal tone common in the dialects of many white southern groups. I have been reprimanded for referring to myself as a "redneck." This was taken as an expression of racism against nonwhites on my part. WTF? People with a transparent skin like mine get a chronic sunburn, especially if they work outdoors in a subtropical region. I don't, and my sunburn is not nearly as evident as my dad's was -- he did -- but the fact remains:I. Have. A. Red. Neck. But here's the thing. We good old boys pretty much don't give a damn what names we are called. Sometimes we take pride in them.

They fielded some really strong teams in the late 90s. Nearly went to the Super Bowl several times before losing their way. I think they’ll be a force to contend with over the next few years.

Don’t knock the Jags.

But what do I know.

..............you know, the east coast vs the west coast and all that nonsense. But .....But, But.
and here is a very very important ..."But", if this ridiculous discussion takes our minds off of the total idiot in the White HOuse...then I wlll indeed say this, "It should have been Boston vs Philadelphia"

Are you trolling? (Just kidding!)

Never call New York better than Boston and expect not to hear from us Red Sox fans.

Did you ever try to find a parking place for your car in Manhattan ? Tell me, what kind of name is "Manhattan"?
Who thought that one up?...

I would rather try to park my car in Boston. It is a far better place than....a suburb called, "Manhattan"
that word sounds like some reference to Batman and Robin in some crime show..


and here it is, instantly..from the search just completed..a map of Manhattan. (it does instant searches too)

He could be playing out of Gopher's Run, Arkansas, and they'd still salivate over him.

It doesn't hear that he's also the GOAT, by the way.
