Talk about a pot calling a kettle?

Really?!

You can express your point regarding Birmingham all you want, it still remains that Birmingham is considered equal to cities like , Huntsville, Montgomery , Savannah, Tallahassee, and yes Augusta when discussing US cities; not Charlotte, New Orleans, Nashville, and certainly Atlanta. It's just not the same , period. It's just not!

And being a sports town has nothing to do with bring the home of a major business. And yes Atlanta is not perceived to be a sports town, but only because if the pro teams , which is very short sighted. When it comes to college football is there any question to where the home is.

It's hard to take what you say seriously when you equate metro Birmingham with "Huntsville, Montgomery Savannah, Tallahassee, and yes Augusta". Seriously, are you drunk, trolling, or simply that f'in clueless? Metro Birmingham is two and in some cases three TIMES bigger than all the cities you mentioned. In fact, up until a few years ago before metro New Orleans continued it's long term recovery from Katrina, metro Birmingham was actually larger than metro New Orleans. Yet you act like Birmingham is some podunk metro on par with Macon, Savannah, or Augusta. Are you really that clueless about a metro area only 150 miles from your beloved Atlanta?

P.S. I used the word "redneck" because I had a childhood friend from Alabama that moved to Griffin, GA (about 50 miles south of downtown Atlanta) in th 6th grade. He had a couple of really cool close friends. He also knew a handful of acquaintances who were rednecks that loved to tell State of Alabama jokes. It was so funny seeing rednecks from Georgia sitting on the high horse making fun of their own from Alabama. The irony totaply escaped them but hey, they lived an hour from downtown Atlanta so they were "kewl".
