You know, I am so rooting against the Falcons this year.
I mean, I have nothing against the players. Certainly enjoy watching Bijan and Drake London, and still hopeful for Pitts. Gotta admire Kirk Cousins' financial wizardry. By all accounts, Raheem Morris is a nice man. And I always kind of liked Arthur Blank -- he's a Stuyvesant HS graduate just like my eldest son, and if you find an NFL owner whose politics aren't bottom of the barrel, you need to respect it. And above all, nobody should have to endure the kind of humiliation they endured after 28-3 forever. [Except the Yankees, of course.]
But the Falcons turned their backs on the greatest coach of all time, to whom I'm forever loyal, so they're morons. And they did it in a way that was more dismissive and disrespectful than it should've been, so they're assholes. I want it proven beyond all shadow of a doubt that their owner sucks, their management sucks, and their coaching sucks. Last night was a terrific start.
