peterpiper Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Guys I have to come out and say, I love the Atlanta Falcons. I remember being 8 years old in 1978 watching them lose to Dallas in the playoffs, then again 1980 when I was 10 years old I cried when the Falcons lost again to the Cowboys in the playoffs. I thought that was our year. I had my Falcons jacket with the white leather sleeves and the snap on buttons. Then I went thru the Leeman Bennett firing, the Dan Reeves dark days, got excited again with Glanville and 2 Legit to Quit until we got stomped by the Redskins. I have been supporting this team a long long long time. I have one thing I want to say. I WANT A LOMBARDI period. I am pissed that New Orleans AND Tampa got one before us and I am REALLY pissed that Arthur Blank has sat back and not FIRED anyone in our front office. How he can sit back and expect us to pay MORE this year for seats while he has not FIRED one GD person in his front office has me fuming. I have been a season ticket holder a long GD time and the fact he expects us to just sit there and take it while he keeps people like Rich McKay, Thomas Dimitroff, and Scott Pioli employed is an insult. If Blank wants us to stand by him and this franchise he needs to do what the LOYAL OLD SCHOOL Falcon fans want. Blank needs to stand by his fan base. I and my peeps in Section 121 and 122 have been thru this before with Reeves to Mora, Mora to Smitty and we are going to give you ONE more chance with Quinn but if it doesn't pan out in two to three years and we still have NO LOMBARDI and you still have McKay sitting in Flowery Branch WE WILL BE GONE. We will not write an article in the AJC telling you we are sorry, we will not get a billboard out front of the stadium demanding McKay be fired we will just LEAVE. We have stood by this franchise a long time and we have endured a lot of heartache now its time for this franchise to give us what WE want and that is a GD championship. No excuses. No more coaching changes. Get the players, win the trophy, or take your PSLs and eat them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peterpiper Posted June 11, 2015 Author Share Posted June 11, 2015 Typical response, this board has a click of like 15 people that have no life that sit here and try and paint everything with rose colored glasses. Knowing that these are same people that watch the games on TV and never spend their hard earned money on tickets or parking or concessions. A click of people who pick on new posters and anyone who post anything that is remotely close to the TRUTH about the Falcons. It is one thing to be a board monitor and monitor people making harassing statements it is another thing to nail posters just because they have a different opinion than your. Just because someone calls it like it is does not make them a TROLL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtlantaFanatic Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Well I'm 28 years old and I know that Dan Reeves came AFTER Glanville. And what do you mean by "dark days"? The closest you've ever come to what you want happened with Dan Reeves. Also, yeah, we all want to win a Lombardi but if you bail on the team that's your decision. I'll still be here cheering on the Black and Red forever. Oh, and I wasn't aware that 45yr olds used the phrase "yo seriously." Not that it's a bad thing, just not used to hearing it.

Might I suggest you stick to the saints report or the carolina huddle? I know it's one of those two where your real account is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B3TD Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Am I the only one that reads a wall of text like the Micromachine man, as if the person just had way too much coffee (or possibly crack or meth).Paragraphs man, no one wants to read a wall of your jumbled up thoughts... But judging by the responses it looks like it wasn't worth reading anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
