We all know that the Jacksonville Jaguars have had a less than stellar season – heck even a less than bad season.
But after many games of me coming home from spending multiple hours on the sidelines taking photos and not having anything positive to say to my wife, I chose not to tell her how bad the team looked Sunday against the New York Jets.
But when my wife leaned over the counter as she cooked up dinner, she asked me “How bad did they lose?”
