Oh yeah. Been a fan since birth. What an INCREDIBLE draft we had. ;D The additions of Hall and Jenkins are huge pluses. I can't wait for the season to start.  |

New Vick Jersey, Caps, sunglasses, etc. Then we get a logo and color change. Now I'm hearing that the home/black jersey is switching to the home/alternate jersey and the home/alternate-red will now be the main home jersey. But I really like the change. |

Okay, I was just wondering how it was that you guys made it through the "Dirty Bird" phase of the Falcons. I've lived in Georgia for the past 12 years, and I'm just now getting over that horrible fiasco. They did really well during this phase, but I ended rooting for the Denver Broncos just so I wouldn't have to see that horrific end zone celebration anymore.  With the addition of Vick, and the players they drafted in this year's draft, I may finally have a reason to at least cheer for my state team.  |

Surely you don't rank the 'dirty bird" worse than having to watch Billy Joe Tolliver at QB do you?
Or Jerry Glanville leaving tickets for Elvis at every home game?
The Run N Shoot offense. Ugh. That one makes me cringe.
But there is at least hope now in Atlanta. The best move they made was getting rid of Reeves and bringing in Rich McKay.

That one makes me cringe. I'd have to. I don't remember those other phases. I've lived here in Georgia for 12 years, but I never really rooted for the Falcons. The "Dirty Bird" phase brought them to my attention.  Kind of bad. I live in the state for that long and don't really even pay attention to the fact that there's a team. Main problem is I live in Southeast Georgia, and the broadcast as many Panthers and Jaguars games as they do Falcons games. |

You guys thought you had it bad with the run-n-shoot? You do realize that there are football fans in the Houston area who still remember the Oilers? We had Glanville before you did...then we ended up with something even worse...Jack Pardee.
"And the Oilers take a 35-3 lead...yup...Buffalo has Houston right where they want 'em."
"......"

LOL. I remember quite well the "House of Pain" and Glanville's days in Houston.
