Falcons Fans: Lack Of Understanding


Recommended Posts

Falcons Fans seem to be on different pages all of the time. Whether it's people getting offended simply because people call us terrible fans.

Well, here is the fan base again. Why in the h*** are you rushing the coaching staff to win it all? It's not like we have done anything in the past. 45 years, one Super Bowl appearance, no back to back winning seasons until this regime came in. No back to back playoffs appearances until this season. I think you spoiled brats are forgetting something. After 2007, we were doomed. Nobody liked us, and nobody wanted to come to Atlanta (to play or coach). Ask all of the other NFL Teams that are in rebuilding stages about winning. They probably can't tell you. Don't give me your justice about what the coordinators are doing wrong. There have been worst defenses and offenses that have won it all. We just have to get it together as a whole. It takes times. I'm out, flame me, bite me, and go kick rocks.

True. But there are some strong fans that are beginning to agree with those. Also, they can let that clown on ESPN have that "Peach Picking" thing. We've overcome things like that before.

It's sports. They're entitled to their opinions.

No staff can guarantee we win a Super Bowl.

It's funny, but most of the threads this week broaching this subject matter seem to be coming from the people who are perfectly happy with things the way they are.....

Been very quiet from the other side. I guess we're focusing on the huge playoff game we'e playing at 1 pm tomorrow.

As it should be. Thank you so much! I am proud to post on the same board with you! You're the man!

Most Group 2 folks have clearly stated repeatedly that they hope to be wrong, because that would mean the Falcons are winning.

Besides, it's a football message board. No one here is curing cancer or solving world hunger.

Most of us are here to share our common interest in the Falcons, share ideas about the team/organization and hopefully have a few laughs.

Most posters get that concept.

Look no further than the recent re-signing of Tony G to find your answer on what he feels.

Would he re-sign with the Falcons if he thought the team wasn't headed in the right direction?

These are from yesterday. Do they look to you like TG thinks there is a problem with coaching or execution? Jan. 06, 2012 4:07 p.m. - by Knox

Bardeen - Corrections are simple, Gonzalez says of offense

TE Tony Gonzalez on fixing simple mistakes: “When we look at film some of the time, it's like 'What was that guy thinking?', 'What was I thinking on that play?' It's simple stuff, stuff we know we can correct. That's why I take a positive approach. If we get it corrected, we're tough to stop.” Falcons RapidReports

Jan. 06, 2012 4:07 p.m. - by Knox Bardeen - Gonzalez: Inconsistency was a problem for everybody

TE Tony Gonzalez said inconsistent play has been the biggest issue this season on offense: “Not just one player -- all of us together, not doing it when we had to do it.” Falcons RapidReports

Yeah, and if the NFL ever institutes a "regular season Lombardi" we have that sucker wrapped up.

This is my last post in this thread falken. For whatever reason you have totally misread this entire Group 1-Group 2 thing......about 95% of it has been written in fun and parody. You seem to have taken it personally, as if PokerSteve and I were somehow insulting you (or the Falcons) directly.

You just don't get it, which I find really strange considering how you contribute so much humor to this board with your great Photoshop posts.

But I'm tired of getting in these circular war of words with you so I'm just opting out of them from now on.

Go Falcons!

I didn't start supporting this staff because of the whole group thing. I didn't stop when someone yelled truce because the board was still littered with threads about what coaches to hire or what coaches had to go.

Gritz.....I never thought it was personal. I'm not sure what I did to make you think that but it was never my intentions.

Nothing but respect for you Gritz.

I did take exception to the fact I was told that I shouldn't support our staff while in the middle of a playoff run. I felt like someone was telling me to quit shooting while they reloaded their weapons. It felt personal against me.

I honestly feel everyone is entitled to their opinions.....including myself.

Like I said....nothing but respect for you Gritz. I admire our shared passion of the Falcons.

Of course Gonzo isn't going to point the finger at anybody else but himself. That's just true professionalism.

SMH. You would supply the egg eh? Yes, I've been vocal in my preceived faults with this team, but doesn't mean come tommorrow, I, as well as everyone else won't be cheering our azzes off for a Falcons win!

Despite what some might think, the game will be decided on the field, not on this MB.

Way to stir up the whole fan-against-fan drama that Supes, Gritz and other leaders of this board asked everyone NOT TO DO during this week before the play-offs. You didn't say anything that hasn't already been beaten to death on here 42,000 times. Congratulations on being a clueless moron who just can't let sleeping dogs lie in the interest of the town, the team or even this forum. Please take an extra sharp butcher knife and stab yourself in the left eye up to the hilt then throw your worthless self off the top of a building. Failing that, at least never post here on any other internet forum for the rest of your miserable life.

Those that wind up with egg on their face usually supply the egg themselves.

.....but maybe I can oblige.

I'm also very aware that regardless of which side of the fence you are on with this staff means you are very passionate about the Atlanta Falcons.

I'm not too thickheaded to realize that with love comes passion.

I mean.....you can't tell me that isn't passion!

I bet you will. Hopefully, my fears about my concerns with the lack of talent/performance in the trenches were unfounded, if not, I will be very, very, very sad.

Lets go Falcons!!!!!!!!!!!

OP, don't take anyone (posters and admin alike) or anything (threads and posts) seriously at all. We are all spending our leisure time entertaining ourselves on a simple, petty sports message board. It's no different than people watching Fox News/CNN or their favorite sitcom.
