If this has been posted already, my apologies. One thing that we usually notice in Jacksonville is the lack of Jaguar highlights in ESPN shows (Sportscenter, etc..). It seems like they show a couple of clips from the games, say a line or two and then move on to the next game. With Fred Taylor looking like he'll make the Pro-Bowl this year due to the unfortunate injury to Willie Parker, thought I'd share a highlight that was posted in youtube of Fred's best runs THIS year.
Take a look at what you've missed from one of the most underrated back possibly in the history of the NFL.

Ya, it is really a shame that Fred Taylor has probably had a HOF career, and the first time he goes to the Probowl it's going to be as an injury reserve.
Well to be fair, ESPN is in the business of just showing who they feel are the top tier teams. That's why the Pats, 'Boys, etc. are shoved down our throat. Before AD blew-up, the Vikings got absolutely NO love from the MSM. All people remembered was the loveboat. And even if we were as good as we are now, we still probably wouldn't get as much attention if AD wasn't on the team.

First the federal government borrowed money; then gave the money to Bank of America; then I borrowed some of that money from Bank of America and gave it to the federal government; then the federal government gave the money back to Bank of America.

I live in Florida and I've never heard of a Jacksonville before.
I'm pretty sure its in Mississippi, I think its the capital.
I'm praying to god that this is sarcasm, but I really don't know.
