teams are putting less importance on them than ever before.


The Birds/DQ have been leading the way on this.

Julio in his presser was getting after Ledbetter (thankfully, that dude is a hack)-- saying, "I haven't played in the preseason in 4 years. That doesn't mean anything as to how I prepare, and play."

Tend to believe our team feels the same way.

Praying for a sound offensive line, and opportunistic defense.

Ledbetter went on and on with the wording of that question. God he's terrible. Julio's response was perfect.

I never thought when Terrance Moore left, it could ever get worse. Moore was awful, but Ledbetter is just dumb. The way he asks questions makes it even more mind blowing that he went to law school.

"Hey, uhhh, Julio, you know, about your contract..." how this man has this much schooling and has been in that position so long and is still that terrible is something I'll never understand.

This sounds bad but the first time I heard Ledbetter on the radio I legit thought he had a disability and it was some special segment where they let a learning impaired person have a day of access with the Falcons. After hearing him a couple more times I realized he isn’t learning disabled but he has a really convoluted way of talking, asking questions and articulating his points. Hard to believe he has become as prominent a reporter as he is.

Julio signs 3 year 66 million extension. With his current contract, means we've got him for 5 years, 87 million.

He's worth it just to show the younger guys how to act like a professional. Dude is the complete opposite of that clown AB.

64 of that is guaranteed. Falcons gambling big time on him staying healthy.

Rather pay Julio that than anyone else. He is a consummate professional. That money goes in Blank's pocket ultimately and he knows how he is spending it.

I actually think the way football players get paid is outrageous when you see average NBA players making $15-25 mil a year. NFL makes the most money and the players take the most risk, but I think they get fricked on the player compensation side.

NBA contracts are a large reason that league sucks so much.

On another note, this season sure is off to a hell of a start.

Minnesota at home is a tough assignment.

But this is trash so far.
