Roar! 37-17

For ten years now, the Tennessee Titans have been more hated by Jaguars fans than maybe even Osama bin Laden. The Titans beat the Jaguars 3 times in 1999, in what many thought was a sure run to the Superbowl. In 2004, there was another humiliating loss to the rivals from Nashville. Tennessee once claimed that Jacksonville was their other 'home field.' The Jaguars may not go to the Superbowl this year, may not even make the playoffs...but the Titans took a beating at the hands of the Big Cats today, and there is some comfort in that. This is a bit like the Army-Navy game...it's almost ok if that's the only win Navy gets ALL YEAR LONG.

The win today puts my hometown team back to a 2-2 record, which is nothing to be ashamed of in this world...unless you're a Football Dynasty (we'll know about the 'boys later today), and the Jaguars haven't achieved that. They DID hand the Titans a record of 0-4 -- that's ZERO and FOUR. No one deserves that record more.

Go Jaguars!

UPDATE: "America's Team" (I lived there when they were God, separately and as a group - it was disgusting...I wore a Steelers shirt for YEARS in response - and because I had a crush on Rocky Bleier) has a spectacular record of 2-2 after getting whupped by the Broncos today. Last time the 'boys beat Denver was 1995. HA!
