Sing it: Shahid Khan is coming to town

Amid a recent rash of YouTube footage depicting young people in various states of disrepair over the failures of the Vikings, Jets and Eagles — we catch wind of this.
Under the direction of schoolteacher Ms. Goleski, kindergartners at Neptune Beach Elementary, just outside of Jacksonville, issued a warm holiday-season-infused welcome to Shahid Khan, the Illinois businessman tapped to take over as owner of the Jaguars.
It’s clear the mustachioed wheeler and dealer has already won the hearts of Jacksonville’s youth. Next up: The NFL’s ownership committee, which will vote next week on Khan’s bid to buy the team from Wayne Weaver for a reported $760 million.
Nice work, children.
