You can make a lot of jokes about the Jacksonville Jaguars, but one thing they can claim above all else. They have the best mascot in the NFL. Jaxon De Ville is the best mascot ever. No other mascots “strip” into skinnier outfits and thongs or mock Mike Florio on twitter. Jaxon is what a mascot should be. He’s not just a guy in a big suit who makes big gestures when the team scores and walks around the stands high-fiving small children. He’s actually genuinely entertaining. He engages people and he keeps your interest. He doesn’t feel cheap, it feels like the organization puts effort into letting him do his thing. Jaxon rules.
I recall him also making bets with other mascots that ended in him dancing in a thong and getting paintball’d be veterans. He made these bets on whether or not the horrific Jags teams would beat teams like the Patriots and Broncos. God Bless Jaxon De Ville.
Animated Comics? Yes Please.
Wow! Animation? Granted, I’ve studied this in college, so I know how it works on something like this, but kudos to you!
Now, do it more often.
As someone living near Jacksonville, I gotta say that Jaxon and Staley Da Bear are my favorite mascots, and surprisingly, I have to pick Jaxon as better than Staley. Still, almost anything is better than the Browns’ latest abomination!
The bull mastiff is great, the name is TERRIBLE. I really really really hope they rename it fast. Something like “Dixifield”. This is much more acceptable.
Should’ve named him Jim or Otto. Horrific name aside though, don’t be hating on dogs, they’re balls of awesome. For that matter, don’t be hating on live mascots. Always thought it was awesome when teams like the Broncos, Ravens, Seahawks, etc. have actual living versions of the animals their mascots are.
Y’know, I’m kinda glad we’ve got Oakland at Wembley this year. *shudder*
Still think the Jags are being fattened up for relocation though – eventually they’re off to either LA or London.
And I am FOREVER grateful that the Sexy Rexy isn’t on Jaxon’s budgie-smugglers. Bless you Dave, bless you.
With the things Khan’s done since coming in (the $3+ million locker room, $63 million stadium renovations which include the $26.5 million new giant scoreboard and the addition of the cabanas and pools) and the fact that he’s looking into doing something (new practice facility?) with the nearby shipyard property, I can’t see them relocating anytime soon.
The Rams and the Raiders are much more likely to move.
I’d think the Rams would move back to LA, if Oakland moves the Black Hole would be rioting in the streets.
There’s a lot more fan support for Oakland than there is for St. Louis.
Oakland has the famous die hards but there is a bigger Oakland fanbase left over in LA than for St. Louis. They can both move back pretty easily.
But it doesn’t matter because if the Chargers can’t get anything done for their stadium it’ll probably be them.
SD’s closer to getting a new stadium than LA is to building one. That isn’t saying much though.
RE2PECT!
What does jeter have to do with this.
Thanks for the Khan comic..IM a Steelers fan in Pittsburgh but I love Khans other club..Fulham FC, recently relegated from the Premeirship in England, but hoping to come straight back up! Khan seems like a really good guy and good owner..I think the jags will stay or be the first team in London(theyre playing games there and the Fulham tie in..I hear London is flooded with Jags merch)..Big fan of the comics in general but loved this one….Jaxon came over to England for a FFC match last year and entertained the crowd
Jaxson de Ville is the greatest mascot in the history of the universe and all realms unknown now and forevermore throughout all time.
Sounds like the ring announcer from that 2011 movie real steel.
“And he is the conquerer of all worlds known and unknown.”
