"Epic Fail"? overreact much?
The falcons have never had back to back winning season until last year.
This is not a franchise(unlike our own) that comes to expect post season
success.
FAlcosn fans, all dozen of em, should be happy at the progress and maybe they learned a painful lesson. seeding/HFA isnt somethign to hang your hat on anymore.
"Totally our fault,” said defensive end John Abraham. hmm, yeah all Atlanta...nothign that your opposition did to steamroll your overrated azzes?

I like how the coach emphasized that the Packers were the better team TONIGHT. I have news for you Mr. Smith, the Packers would be the better team 8 or 9 nights out of 10.

Love this fan comment. Hey we were the weakest team according to the NFL system.

With the Falcons trailing 21-14, eight seconds left in the half and the ball on the Packers’ 34, Ryan tried to hit Roddy White with a quick sideline pass to set up a field goal. But he threw way short and behind White and the pass was picked off by Williams, who brought it all the way for a score to make it 28-14 at halftime. The most audible sound in the Georgia Dome was a loud groan.
Brave fans stayed for the second half. But when the Packers scored on their first two possessions in the third quarter, it was like somebody yelled, “Fire.” By the end, it was only Cheeseheads in the stands.

Yes, that was pretty tacky. He said that about Rodgers as well, he was the better qb TONIGHT.

I heart our public school system.
Wild guess.

"Monica Lou Whiskey" is inspired however.
^^^ That's gotta be a troll. No one, not even your typical Falcon fan, can make that many typos in such a blind rage.
Game "MIGHT" have been different if Williams doesn't take it to the house.

Wow, you are calling out someone else for overreacting? That's gold.

Actually, that sounds like a typical Mike Vick fan.

If Babineaux doesn't have mittens on, the Bears game might be different today also ...
Don't underestimate Falcons fans. You think you see dum in some posts in our forum? They can take dum to a whole 'nother level.

Yep. I saw something like this before the Eagles game from Vick fans in Atlanta. Vick was going to go out and show Blank what a big mistake he made by cutting him. That didn't work out so well.
quote:GO TO YOUR SORRY HO DEPOT
Pretty sure that was not a typo either.

Yep. Include Mike Williams too. What an underachiever.

They obviously love their hyperbole as well.
