So only 8 Georgia fans cheer for the Pro team in the state!?!? That’s weird.

I'm actually a Steelers fan. Don't like the falcons.

I consider myself a Falcons fan and watch most of the games, but all emotional connection to the outcome of the games died when we blew the 28-3 lead in the Super Bowl. Falcons blew it again today. They’ll probably blow it again the next time they have a big fourth quarter lead.

I texted my buddy earlier today that maybe it’s time for a total rebrand. Maybe they’ve ridden “Falcons” as long as they can, and it’s time to shake it off and start all over again.

I gave up on the Falcons in the 80s. I had to look up who they played.

A price had to be paid for UGA/Braves championships.

Pretty certain if you went to both games you would note the differences.

Same. My entire family is from Western PA (grew up south of Atlanta)so that's a damn birthright.

I'm not going that far. I hope that they do well but I'm not a Falcons fan.

Blank is a terrible owner. He needs to sell the team. He has no idea what he's doing.

I went to the Falcons/Lions game last year, and there really may have only been 20,000 people there. Some people really care, I’m sure, but I also have known people in this state who are HUGE football fans, know all about the sport, and probably could not name a single Falcons player or even the head coach.

Georgians (outside of the perimeter, anyway) don’t really care about professional sports, except the Braves.

They may as well move the team if they wanna do that.

I hear you brother Nola no call, Minneapolis Miracle, and the 2011 49ers game makes it tough for me as well lol.

Honestly, it’s a price I’d pay every time.

Same. Super Bowl was great after Katrina but crying with my dad in the Dome in 03 was so sweeter. The other 2 were icing on the cake.

College football is king in the south my friend and Atlanta is filled with transplants.
