    And people were wondering why Memorial Stadium was empty?!

    When the punter is your team's best athlete, it's hard to deny that Irsay was trying to deep six that team...

    I read somewhere that he retired with the most total yardage of any punter in history. I don't know if that's true, but it's plausible: a good punter on a terrible team will rack up some yardage.
    It is true that Rohn Stark retired as the #1 guy in career punting yardage. However, he now stands at #7, as six players since 1997 have eclipsed his 49,471 yards. Current #1 is Jeff Feagles with 71,211. Shane Lechter is the only active player in the top ten (at #4).

    And there are reasons why that 'brain trust' is no longer with the Jags....besides they thought they already had their QB in Blane Gabbert - now there was the big mistake!
