Sing it out loud Brother. If I had a singing voice I would be belting out some good old fashioned Gospel type music with Falcons lyrics interjected. Fan for 37 years and have a lot of ghosts to erase just like you. Today is the 2nd step in that exorcism.

That is perfectly OK, and it's good to share your feelings with the ONLY people in the Universe who can relate. That is what is so weird for me this season. Among my family and my circle of Falcon Fans I am known as "Mr. Doom." I usually am just waiting for the sky to fall on us, but since the Panthers beatdown late in the season, I got these goosebumps that just would not go away. For the first time since around 1983 or so, I am totally 100% positive we have a beast for a team. GROUP HUG TO ALL THE NERVOUS FANS!

You gotta learn to loosen up a bit there my friend NEVER EVER use logic when discussing Falcons Fandom.

This magical season has left me, and I am sure, many of you believing that we are truly headed into a date with destiny, that the outcome has somehow been preordained as a way to cleanse our ghosts of season's past and that every atom in the universe has aligned for the Falcons to finally take us to the promised land. Well if you have any more doubt then ponder this: "The Packers' charter plane to Atlanta for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Falcons was unable to take off from Green Bay's Austin Straubel International Airport because of heavy fog, and the team was forced to bu

Sleep? I went to bed a 2AM, woke up at 4AM and then tried to snooze on the couch off and on with little or no success. Now I am bleary eyed before I even hit the sauce, but SO TOTALLY PUMPED UP! Really how do these NFL players get any sleep before a game like this?

LOL exactly what I was thinking. While I never ever want any player injured, Jordy Nelson is just asking for trouble if he steps on that field today. He won't be heading home on the plane afterward, he will be checked into an area hospital after a chance meeting with #22.

Love all Falcons Fan, but gonna show up on the doorstep of any negative Nancys or Naysayers early in the morning to pump some Falcons Cheer up your wazzoo. Don't even try waddling in the mud of indecisiveness: either get ALL ONBOARD or GTFO the BUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG CUT ME SOME SLACK. WHO in their right mind is even entertaining any thought like this. This is OLD FALCONS thinking. "Gee Wally even if we don't win I think we did really good this season, and we look like we will be good next year." Appreciate the post, appreciate the highlighting of the incredible steps this team and organization has taken this year, but the whole "win or lose" crap is just too much like our old mindset to be suitable for this team that has shown no quit, no compromise and NO RESEMBLANCE at all to team in the past that folded when the heat got turned up. We a

Well without doing any research it looks very much like something from the Belgian manufacturers line of Fabrique Nationale (spelling), and chambered in .308 (7.62mm). As a former Cold War Warrior I saw many FN FNAR assault rifles while engaged in war games in Europe with our NATO allies. This weapon looks very much like a modern version of that same weapons family. Very reliable, very hard hitting, and as a former Marine who still idolizes the M-14 I carried, it has that nice solid feel that some weight and and a 7.62mmM cartridge conveys to a rifleman. Yes I know you can carry more rounds

Wow totally in awe of all you great fans who put together these video highlights. We have a lot of talent behind the Falcons.

Just one more proof of which "sex" is the stronger. If you have ever watched a woman give birth to a baby (I was blessed to do so twice). you will never have any doubt about this debate. Hand Salute to Katie: hugs and kisses to their baby girl.

I hear ya, but I am not sure you need to eat crow cause the Brooks Reed I saw tearing up that Seahawks offense we another whole player than the one we have seen in most games here. For whatever reason, the performance he put on against the Seahawks was exactly what I hear "heard" he was capable of when we brought him here. Personally, one of my favorite aspects of being a die-hard fan is watching draft picks or free agents like him exceeding everyone's expectations. Here is hoping the Old Man has another BIG GAME against the Packers tomorrow.

Wow that has gotta be the best article I have read on our young defense and actually getting into the details behind what makes our young guys so good on the field. Too bad there are not more writers who have this author's ability to break down the X's and O's for us neophytes.

Well I won't make any predictions about scores cause the NFL is too volatile a sport for the IMHO, but I also have been feeling "IT" for the first time in my 37 years as a fan. I honestly believe this team will win it all, and that is based more on just plain old objective football reasoning. The Falcons are clearly the dominant team of the last four standing, and I think they only thing holding any fans outside our family from recognizing that is our very long, sordid history of choking in big games. The Seahawks game killed any notion of that in my mind, and you can tell by the talking

You know on paper our Defense looks good against this injury riddled Packer offense, but Aaron Rodgers has that "X-Factor" that defies standard football logic.
