Alrighty folks, we’re gonna try a new idea out here to generate some more thought and discussion here at Black and Teal. The fascinating thing about the internet is the communities that are formed of people all around the world with like interests or internet “tribes”, as some commentators on social media are beginning to call them. Just here at this site, the three standing correspondents are a valid example of this – Zoltan Paksa is from Budapest, Hungary; Luke Sims is from Minnesota and is currently attending school in Montana; and I am a Jacksonville native currently employed in Atlanta. But we all have a passion for Jaguars football and like many of  you, seek information about our team and the NFL from various venues and connect with each other in a (ever increasing!) variety of ways. I assume many of you were loyal “Ask Vic” followers when Mr. Ketchman was the senior editor for Jaguars.com and I am sure many of you have followed him to Green Bay’s website, as I have, because he continues to be a great source of knowledge and tradition (I think he even invented the forward pass). I also assume that many of you tune into what is now the “O-Zone” on Jaguars.com, written by Vic’s successor, John Oehser.

As our forefather here at Black and Teal, the great Terry O’Brien once said,

BlackandTeal is not trying to “break” stories or news. We do not have access to the locker room after games nor are we invited to press conferences. We are fine with that. We simply report on what we see and speculate on that. What we want to do is provide good thought provoking dialog about our team. That is where you come in. Your comments provide as much content as we do. We are here to simply start the conversation.

I believe that very much and that article is the reason I first contacted Terry to start writing for this site. In the spirit of friends gathering in the “online pub”, I would like to embrace the common information that we all read, ponder, and discuss on a daily basis. We are not trying to pretend that Jaguars.com or Ask Vic or Big Cat Country or any other source does not exist. We do not try to separate ourselves from them because that’s not our intention. Our intention is to talk Jaguars football.

With that in mind, I would like to start taking the best question/answer from both Ask Vic and the O-Zone each day and adding a little of my own opinion here at Black and Teal. I hope you’ll add your opinion, as well.

Today’s questions/answers/insight after the jump…
