I don't get how you say "so what?" like it's no big deal (it isn't) then proceed to give a scenario with which you say "what would be even worse".

You're still sticking with that aren't you? Why do you care what people think so much? Honestly it just makes you look worse that you're going to drop your favorite team just because someone calls you a name on a message board.

Anyway, no surprise here. Most popular/prestigious College player in quite some time gets drafted in the 1st round.. I expected a huge number in jersey sales.

This will probably be the 9th home game for the Broncos 75% - 25% fan ratio in Broncos favor. It sounds ridiculous - but the fact of matter is the odds are that will be the most likely scenario.

Not a chance. The only people who would be Bronco fans would be the Gator homers who never cared about the Jaguars and would whine and cry to have him start if they ever bought tickets to a game had the Jaguars drafted Tebow in the 3rd round. Those fans are not what the team needs.

I meant that they ousted the original #15 Brandon Marshall for a guy who had #15 in college, Tim Tebow.

I think the team "needs" as many fans as they can get.

In all seriousness though - I'm pretty sure that first home game will be filled with Broncos "fans"

The real question....

If Tebow busts, will his fans sit around for years believing he will come back?

ahem.

They probably will sell out most if not all games this year. They are finally getting businesses involved again which helps a lot.


The gator fans never buy Jags tickets. They may have bought them the first few years, but that is it. These people complain none stop about the Jags, but yet won't spend a dime on them. Most of them also have never been to a gator game. I've probably been to the swamp more times than most of them as a FSU fan. If they want to go to the Broncos game and watch Tebow hand out drinks to the starters, the Jags should make them buy seasons tickets. Don't offer single game tickets.

Tebow is a different monster. The fans will be buying tickets to see Tebow I highly doubt they're worried about their handred on Jags. If anything theyll go out to watch the game cheering for Jags lose.

Lol you're fooling yourself if you think theyll sell out almost every game.

How many was sold out last year? Colts game and what?
