Falcons: Falcons vow to be in new stadium by 2017

[RFlagg]

Pretty much my thoughts exactly, Beef. I think Blank wants out of Atlanta for more than one reason.

1. Lower Taxes in the burbs.
2. Doesn't have to pay the city revenue for vendors in the stadium.
3. Can charge what he wants for parking and keep the profits.
   

It makes a lot of sense for them to move out of downtown, but the problem will be perception. It'll be called a money grab and a "travesty" and what not. Truth is, the Falcons will make more money and have more control in a location outside downtown Atlanta.
