Week-3 of this 2010 football season may be considered a little early to call a game critical, even being that it is a divisional contest and a heated rivalry. But for the Atlanta Falcons, this particular trip to the Super Dome has the potential to stick and perhaps, define the ...Published on: 23rd March, 2010
We do this every year. For the NFL and the fans thereof, Draft Day is a little like Christmas; it is a holiday when all else ceases to matter and the family gathers for show and tell. The sports media loves it every bit as much, too. Heck, ...Published on: 10th December, 2009
Georgia Dome, Atlanta, Georgia, Sunday Dec. 13, 2009. It’s almost game time and you are the head coach of the Atlanta Falcons. Huddled around are your soldiers and as always, they are psyched and ready to go. But, you know that half of them are banged up, some pretty ...Published on: 9th December, 2009

If I listened long enough to youId find a way to believe that its all true... You know the disappointment is there. You don’t really have to look to know it but, if you must, it can be read it in nearly every article and comment by every Falcon beat writer ...Published on: 27th September, 2009
It seems that everywhere you read, there’s a story of some player, some team that has this pig flu. Yesterday’s college scene saw Tim Tebow go down from a hit but then… almost as an afterthought, it was mentioned that he had some otherwise undefined "respiratory issues."
