thenfl Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 There is an obvious answer to me but i want to see what everyone has to say. How long will you stand by Mr Blank as he continually rips you off by putting total ##### on the field. I must admit it must be unbelievably difficult to have a great team in the NFL when your #1 concern is not talent but character. While Blank talks about having great people in the organization he gets totally embarrassed. First Vick now Petrino. Mike actually looked like a great person compared to his brother so you have to give Blank somewhat of a pass for him but not Petrino. Petrino's lies and lack of loyalty were well documented before he even got to ATL. I question how Blank determines a person's character. What made Petrino a perfect fit for ATL but not guys like TO and Moss. In the NFL Moss and TO have proven to be all time greats and they arent a distraction at all to their current teams. They were previously but who is to say they wouldnt have worked out in ATL? What did Petrino prove in the NFL? Blank clearly knew about Petrino's past but he was willing him to give him a chance but not great players like i mentioned. What player has proven to be of great character on the team besides Dunn? Their might be another player or 2 like that but how is having the worst starting rb in the league by far putting the best possible team on the field? I think Blank needs to take a greatly diminished role as well as fire Mckay. I dont see how Blanks character formula can be one of success in the NFL when he cant even find decent people. With having the best possible players on the field and great character does that mean ATL will only have Norwood, Boley, and Blaylock on the field next year? They are the only ones that are reasonably young, talented and can just play and deal with the situations they are handed?Hall is ATL's best player but he is more than willing to speak out negatively about anything so does this mean he wont be in ATL? Roddy White while supporting a friend is great he shows he supports a felon and has no clue what is right or wrong i guess so must he go too?Arthur Blank has left the fans with a team with no NFL Qb, a rb that has been given no opportunites, a need for a whole new offensive line except 1 guy, 1 wr that can make plays the worst #1 pick in the NFL at this point this year and a solid defense at best but 2 guys that have contracts that will expire soon and can get top money elsewhere and actually play for a good team.Continue to stand by Mr Blank and the team will continue to be horrible only because it cant possible get any worse could it?Also anyone have any word of how much ticket pricing will go up after all the "renovations" will be completed?

archangelreb Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Perhaps you would like them to sell the team. Move them so you wouldn't have anything to ##### about. OK no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenfl Posted December 13, 2007 Author Share Posted December 13, 2007 selling certainly wouldnt hurt but why not first put the team in the hands of someone who knows what they are doing first? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlacksburgHokie Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 If you want to "save your soul," go PM RODDY_NATION. I think he's still taking applications for the Patriots bandwagon.As for me, I'll support the Falcons for as long as I live, regardless of who the owner or the coach is. After suffering through all these years of frustration, it will just make it that much sweeter once we finally win a championship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
