Jumping the shark after all these years... - FormerKCfan - 01-16-2012 04:26 PM
Hello everyone. I moved to the Atlanta area from KC back in 2000 and was slowly won over by the Braves to the point where they ARE my MLB team of choice. But, my old hometown Chiefs still had me buying the NFL Sunday Ticket thus remaining loyal to the that team, until today.
Exposed by the KC Star for its shoddy owner and GM in a damning front page story, I've now had more than enough, so I'm starting anew here and will be following the Falcons from this point forward. I know a great deal about the NFL but you will judge that for yourself over the next several days and weeks.
Meantime, I plan on getting fully up to speed on the ATL roster, having only a cursory interest in the team up to now. In other words, I'll try not to post anything stupid but no guarantees!
It will be nice to enjoy Tony G again if only for another year or two.

Welcome to the team!
Our Fans are in a state of "WTFJUSTHAPPENED" mode after the hiring of Dirk Koetter as our OC, so beware of any OC comments!

Welcome.
I'm interested hearing more about the KC situation. Also I'm curious to hear your opinions on the Falcons from your perspective as a long time fan of another team.

just because someone isn't paranoid doesn't mean they aren't bugging/following him
