The Jacksonville Jaguars were 5-11 last season, and the team did what any team in similar circunstances would do: clean house. But if Week 2 of this season is any indication, the fans are avoiding Jacksonville Municipal Stadium like the H1N1 virus; you know it is not a good sign for the Jags when less [...]
