Maybe the Pirates should look into this.

This would be great for the Kansas City Royals, the Florida Marlins, and the Nationals.  You can throw in the WNBA while you're at it.

honestly that's sad. LOL

my question in.....do the players realize that they are not real people? I don't know about you but it wouldn't make me feel better or "bring a boost" to my club. If anything that might be the knockout blow. Can you imagine how freaky that would be to walk onto the field? I wouldn't even be able to participate I would be laughing to hard........wait, maybe that works as a home field advantage!

I don't get it... it looks like they're all cheering, but there's no noise coming out...

Matt Millen sold them all of the inflatables at half price.

We have probably seen the best comment of the day right here. Good stuff, Pat.

bravo sir bravo.

haha she looks more like she is screaming "RAPE!"

Holy crap... AG just made a funny!

haha i did laugh at that

u guys r all perverted!!!!
but inflatable fans would just depress me, as a player. and as another fan, it would creep me out!!  majorly!!   i think this idea is FAIL!!!

The one thing the players can be happy about, is even though the team might not be that good, they will always have a date after the game.

"Look at Johnson! He hasn't played a minute all year, but hes dating that girl in the front row!"

This would be a fine solution for the New York Islanders or the Florida Marlins.

It's sad...but BRILLIANT!

I mean a company actually thought of this!  I'm going back to the drawing board with my band-aids for different nationalities....all shades of colors, various browns for African Americans etc....all ethic backgrounds can choose their own color and no one will even know they have a band-aid on!

Now That is Seriously SHOCKING News!

Where is this place?...at least I'll have a date for after the game......hey bayybee...

u miss the point of the name.  its something along the lines of im just pretended to be sweet, or u think im something im not.  either way, there both bad for ur health.

oh god here we go again

dudes, do not start this convo again, i will die from laughing.    and if ur joking u gotta put something that lets me know ur joking, like a wink  or a smiley

thanks for making me lose my appetite right before going out for a heavy night of drinking

No problem...that green beer would've done it to ya anyway

right, but by then i would have eaten, and had something in my belly to soak up the massive amounts of alcohol i am sure to consume.

haha

Wow, Amazing Grace A Doctor?

yeah, but the say there is something funny about the drugs he uses to put you under.

Faith And Having An MD Are Two Different Things! I Still Believe... Though... In God That Is.

Jax has most of its available stadium full every game.  maybe not a sell out but not as bad as the Marlins

haha. god help everyone is a knife fight breaks out

knife.  bah, i could knock the stuffing out of those guys...

was speaking in regards to the blow up dolls..................now you can laugh

Solid points. Isn't it a given that if they thought they could sell the seats, they wouldn't cover them up? So even a "sellout" isn't a sellout at a place like that unless they let the stadium fill to capacity. Since they know they can't get that, they don't even bother to try. Pathetic, imo.

Ok well here it goes.

1) Its a small market team that is only 14? years old. It's had little to no success. Marlins however have had 2 WS. My point is you cant sit there and say Jags need it as opposed to Marlins or Royals. Jags are also in a rut it seems with the front office making bad choice after bad choice. Jack Del Rio is not a fan favorite nor was Matt Jones. People dont want to see their team lose.

2) Pro Football is not the culture in Jacksonville yet. UF vs UGA is different because people travel for that. They dont travel for Jag games because they have had little success. I was at every game last season and it was not even close to the level of the marlins. Its not the same at all. Playoff year doesnt mean you automatically get a football culture in a city. Especially when that franchise is so young.

3)
sports.espn.go.com/nfl/attendance

Take a look at that. In there it states the following:

Jacksonville- 65,167 avg attendance per home game 

Pittsburgh - 62,890 avg attendance per home game

Pittsburgh has a 65,000 capacity right? Well they cant fill that up every game so OMG get 2-3 thousand blow up dolls cause now Steelers really need it. Jags have more people come to the games than Steelers do. More seats, less people that have adopted the culture than Pitts. Yet you try to make fun of the Jags for not filling the seats? When they have the possibility of having 20,000 more people?! You are full of crap. Heintz field couldnt even come up with 20,000 more people to fill their seats. Ya'll are ripping a team for having a bigger stadium? Or are you ripping a team for attendance when its numbers are clearly higher than your favorite team the Steelers? According to ESPN a whopping 18,000 more people came to Jaguar games than Steeler games last year. And Pitt won the SB! Sure pathetic huh Pat?

Oh and one more thing... they can cover those seats because even when they do... they still have the same amount of seats available as the Steelers do. Only one Teams avg can fill up Jax's stadium... that team: Washington Redskins. with a 91,000 seating capacity

Honestly, I could give a crap about either team. They are both hovering around 97% capacity, according to your link.

The only important number for me is the 101.1% for the Patriots, meaning they average MORE than a sellout. Once again, the Patriots prove to be one of the premier organizations in the NFL in this decade, by any and every standard.

I never said otherwise. Their superbowls put them at the next level to elite franchise. No doubt about that. It's according to ESPN which isnt some stupid nobody website. No one ever said the pats werent. They are also top in Video Camera usage and hoodie sales. ;)

What's the capacity of Gillette Stadium?

68,000 something i think

Thats a terrible comparison though. Steelers have won 6 superbowls and date back to 1933
The jags are 14 years old in a city that doesnt have any other pro sports. No huge college football team. So I really dont know why you are getting on the Jags case about this because it is clear that the Jags are doing better than about 11 other teams. Sellout or not the Jaguars have more people in their stadium than the Steelers do. The pathetic team record is still 2000 shy of the Jags average in 2008. Its alot easier to go to games when that franchise has won 6 superbowls and has been there for 76 years. Your argument is moot.

Im not a Jag fan by any means. I'm a Dolphins. I got season tickets last year because im in jacksonville and i might as well experience season tickets to an NFL team. You act like Im a fan for them. Im not.

I used the Steelers as an example so you would maybe understand that what you are arguing is pathetic

And NO the JAGUARS were NOT the ones who lobbied. The investors of the stadium did it to attract an NFL team. So the Jags didnt do anything to sway the capacity because they werent around when the renovations took place. The stadium in Jax isnt just for the Jags its for bowl games and cocktail parties only the worlds largest and can host things like the superbowl. Its a stadium of Jacksonville not the Jaguars. In 1995 the Jags were just introduced so what the hell are you talking about "because the Jaguars were experiencing local tv blackouts even during playoff years?" Besides have you seen the old stadium? Jax needed a new one since it was about 50-60 something years old.

Wait are you suggesting the Steelers werent jealous that the pirates got their own park and the steelers had to deal with the hand-me-down stadium in three rivers? So they didnt get a new stadium because the pirates were finally on their own? The Steeler ownership just didnt want to pan out alot of money with their "scam B" I'm sure youre aware of that term. They added 6000 more seats. Having problems with too many people wanting tickets is unlikely since it was only a 6000 seat increase so it must be because of the Pirates getting their own park.

Clearly you missed my point in stating that the steelers were there for 39 years prior to your "record" setting sellouts. The numbers you displayed were from 2001-2008. Which the steelers had superbowls. Give Jacksonville more than a teenager lifespan and a chance to get some success before you call them out for anything.

Give the jags Heintz field and sellouts will come. But because Jax has to get ready for such events like a superbowl, UF vs UGA, Gator Bowl, ACC champ until this year, and more Jax has to have a bigger stadium . My point in calling out the stupidity of your comment was because it was ignorant of the true numbers in NFL games. They still reach a middle amount of attendence and to try to make fun of them is so ignorant of facts and actual numbers. Give the Jags 25 more years and maybe something different will happen.

Now just something different here... Three River had a capacity of 59000 right? well in 1970 the highest attendance that year was 50,214. 27 years later having trouble filling the smaller stadium. You gave the Jags 14 years to have sellouts every game. Thats what im pointing out. I could have used another team but I dont think that would affect you at all cause we all know how steeler fans are.

I dont understand why everyone is so upset. This blow up doll idea will work just fine for the Jaguars as well.
