If the Falcons did this and was warned then I would be upset with the Falcons to continue to cover up a lie with another lie and another one. I know some if not all of us have had an adult say "Don't cover up a lie with another lie" Eventually its gonna catch up to you and here we are 3 years and the punishment is 10x worse than what it would have been

If they would have been stopped when initially warned then they would have been unpunished like the other teams in the league that have been doing tbis since the 80's.

Can't do the crime and then get upset with the consequences. (This last statement was moreso for Saints players complaining. Like Brees and Greer)

I can agree with all of that. I am pissed myself about any covering up which was done. But, fans will be fans and it is hard to be objective when it is your team in the sights. I have preached this for as long as I have been a member here, "All fan bases are the same. They just happen to wear different colors on game day."

I have never come here to troll. I like this site because it happens to be one of the best in the league and very similar to my home site, B&G. I put up with a great deal of crap here because I actually do really like a number of the regulars. It would have been easy to disappear while all of this was going on, but I really felt that it needed to be discussed. I know the management here knows I do my best to avoid undue controversy, but some things deserve other viewpoints.

Yes, I'll admit I am a homer. What is wrong with that. I have been one since the franchise came into existence and I will remain one until the day I die. I attempt to be as logical as I can, but you must understand that logic sometimes has difficulty coexisting with passion.

I apologize to any of you I have upset, but do not expect me to change.
