FALCONS FANS SHOULD BE SO FUCKING PROUD TODAY

[BOSSHOG]

GARBAGE OFFENSE, LUCK, BAD CALLS. EVEN AFTER A HURRICANE NEW ORLEANS SHINES COMPARED TO ATLANTA.

FAVRE OFFENSE AGAINST THE SAINTS - 52 POINTS
VICK OFFENSE AGAINST THE SAINTS - 10 POINTS

THE FALCONS ARE FAST BECOMING THE BRAVES OF THE NFL.

1. Mr. Rubyduby called you a bad name

but I still love you :)

I distinctly remember a bumper sticker from the early 80s that was quite prominent around Atlanta:

Go Braves! And take the Falcons with you!

What goes up must come down. Take some comfort in that :)

2. That may have been the luckiest bet I ever won

I bet tons of first halfs, not the game itself. My teams tend to roar in the first half, then snore in the second. Today I had Atlanta -2.5 in the first half. It was 10-3 Saints with maybe two minutes left in the 2nd quarter. I had brief hope when Atlanta tied it at 10, but then I look up and the Saints are driving to close out the half.

I was walking toward the bathroom in a casino when the most thunderous roar broke out, accompanied by laughter. I trotted back to the sportsbook to see the Falcons celebrating. Atlanta blocked a last second FG and ran it back all the way for an incredibly sweet 17-10 halftime lead!
