TX Falcon Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 So tell me. How many of you are ready to shell out your hard earned money to buy a PSL to reserve a seat you still have to buy the tickets for??? With the way these bums are playing its gonna be one game tickets for me and it needs to be a good team coming in to entertain me!!!I hope MR. Blank just dropped his PSL asking price about 35% at the least since we are in full rebuilding mode after this game!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dharma Initiative Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 I'm moving in a couple of weeks but I planned on keeping my season tickets and was willing to pay for PSL's. Then I learned PSL's will only be good for Falcons games, so that was strike one.Strike two is this season.Strike three will stop me from renewing for sure.

Falcon Fanatic Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 I am not paying for PSL's. Not going to happen. I was going to stay a STH until then though but now I am thinking about not renewing next year. It is hard for me to watch this team on TV little on having to drive a total of five hours to and from Atlanta to see it. I have pulled for the Falcons since 1978 so I know the kind of heartbreak all long time fans of this franchise has known but the **** gets old after awhile. I am disillusioned with this team, this GM, this coach, and these millionaire players stinking it up on the field. Very disappointed.

Falcons_own_nfc_south Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 I'm planning to drop my STH next year. As much as I love my birds but I'd invest that money into my 85 -100 inch TV (building a new house in Suwanee) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjqvi Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Why would anyone pay for PSL's? The congress just stopped NFL blackouts anyway so they can't hang that over anyones head any more. I don't live in ATL any more but I preferred to pick a game or two a year rather than be forced to pay for preseason and crap games etc. Now they want PSL's? HDTV sounds really good to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Is This What You Want? Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 I agree, I was fully planning to pay for my PSLs. At this point however I am in no way willing to pay for PSLs given the fact that:1: You only have rights for falcons games2: Our team is horribleI personally feel that we are not close to a Super Bowl winner given our current team, but are much better than our performance shows due to inept coaching. I will always support my team regardless of the personnel, however I cannot support a team that has obvious subpar coaching. My PSL purchasing does not depend on our record, however it depends on showing that we are doing what is best for our team to win. I do not see that right now.

Not to mention the fact the my family wasn't allowed to lower level stores to buy merchandise bc of restrictions. Sorry but if no one understands the expenses of being an out of town sth then they really don't grasp why it's all BS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheap Talk Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 I have been a STH 5-years running, but as of last week that streak will be over next year. The only way I would re-consider is if we had a new Coach/GM, that instilled the confidence that we can build a championship team in a year or two. It has been well documented why Smith needs to go, he has never been able to stop the run with the 4-2-5, which cost us the NLC game against the 49ers. His game-plan is not fluid and cannot seemingly be modified after the game is in progress (Which is what I thought Coaching was all about!) Blank knows enough about football to plan a viable game plan, but could not make in-game adjustments, that's what NFL Coaches get paid to do.TD hit the jackpot with Ryan and Turner, the Ryan selection was mandated by Blank. We rolled to some prominence with Ryan, Turner, and the maturation of some players taken in 2007/2006. TD has had (7) years to deliver a pass rush, but has invested instead in mirrors and a game-day magic show. Winning has protected his job, and masked his ineptness. Arthur, you are smarter than this, they both need to go along with Nolan's magic act. I like the OC, and the OLC, but they will be probably be collateral casualties.Arthur, please make me renew my STs next year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mega Flare Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Glad people are figuring out what some of us knew in February. Completely satisfied that I didn't renew, and I had seats downstairs on the 45 yard line. If not for PSL's I would have 4 season tickets right now to see these crispy birds get barbecued. Relieved I didn't waste money on this garbage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
since68andcounting Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 I've been a STH for nearly 50 years and it's gonna be a hard sell for me at this point. I'll potentially pay a small amount. I had a cutoff number in mind but it's dropping lol.It's sad. I love this team.2012 was a killer. Worse than 1980 imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falconsfansrus Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 I heard Arthur might charge $ 30,000 per club level PSL...A fair amount lower than the $ 85,000 per seat charged by the SF 49'ers. I don't think Falcons' fans will be willing to pay that kind of money, even for a championship team, let alone the garbage of a team we presently have...

g-dawg Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 nobody is going to pay for these PSL's - it won't work in Atlanta - and it certainly won't work off these back-to-back losing seasons.I have to laugh when I see these advertisments on atlantafalcons.com and in the ajc talking about the "season-ticket waiting list" - secure your seats now to the new stadium.waiting list my azz!

PSL's will be a hard sell in Atlanta. It is a bandwagon city. We are in the center of college football, but the Falcons relevance got a fanbase built up.But it's a fragile fanbase that is all about what have you done lately. People and businesses are not going to pay PSL's. It's not a good enough product, and we don't have a fanbase that shows up when things go bad like the Raiders and Browns.

Big_Dog Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 15 yr STH here and this is my last season. If Blank thinks people will spend thousands to watch mediocre football, he'd be better off pounding sand up his azz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theDIRTYcode Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 If PSLs included rights to the SEC championship game, Chic fi la kickoff, etc they would be worth the money. Knowing this city, Blank better hope he can buy a Lombardi before 2017 otherwise that's gonna be the emptiest state-of-the-art facility on the planet.

FalconFanSince1970 Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Dropped my season tickets after the 2007 debacle and spread that money between the Hawks, Braves and Falcons for select games. So to answer the question, I won't pay for the PSL but I will be in the Pantheon for a few games every season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking we wouldn't see through a price hike, which is what these "PSL'S" are without rights to other events, is insulting and just d@mn stupid on their part.

Dirtybird56 Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Our stadium won't even be close to empty I don't know why people keep saying thatIt will just be made up of opposing fans like the Bears game but worse lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KGrillz Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 My Dad has been a season ticket holder for about 12 years or so. He is leaning towards not renewing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
