Falcons: My wife

[McUser]

Apparently emailed espn and asked them if they were biased, and wanted to know why during our beat down of the giants we weren't even featured on the top five stories on espn but the cowboys were and weren't even playing.

That's what I'm talking about lol

In other news I saw Matt Ryan going through choreographed handshakes with Harry Douglas and others. That's cool, I love this team and ill always support the coach and QB that made this run of success happen. If we had glen Dorsey we're probably 6-10 right now lol. Thank you Matt!!!

When I got home from work that night and was watching and they were doing the top 5 or top 15 thing.. the Falcons/ Giants were in it.. but got 1 to 1.5 secs of air time the other games and plays got from 7 to 10 secs of air or more.. it was pathetic.. and I'm not one to complain and whine like some little bitch... but damn !

Here's what's worse. I was doing some last minute shopping at Walmart today and while I was there thought I would buy my Dad a Falcons shirt, or something with Falcons on it, yet there was nothing. Literally NOTHING. Of course, they had 100 square feet devoted to uga. This is beyond pathetic.

Your right. it's not worth the complaining, but the hate is pretty obvious.

Until the Falcons win a SB, we won't see much in local stores.
I was in Target in Cumming today and saw more people wearing Falcons stuff than I did stuff for sale.

I swear that I'm gonna start taking pictures with people in Falcons gear and post them on here. It will annoy the hell out of my wife.

[juraitwaluzka]

Yeah I saw ten to twelve people wearing Falcons stuff but none for sale.

I doubt even winning the SB will help.if the local stores aren't getting on board by now they never will. To be fair there was nothing for any other teams either so maybe it's an NFL thing.

Might be an NFL thing. Could be they're trying to corner the market and make all their stuff available only on their website.

I know NASCAR has slowly been shifting that way. Used to be you could go to Wal-Mart or Target or any place like that and find loads of NASCAR shirts, hats and diecasts and now it's hard as hell to find that kind of stuff. NASCAR wants you to only be able to buy their stuff online or at the races. I guess that they make more money that way.

[juraitwaluzka]

They will make less money from me. Virtually eliminates the impulse buy.
