Tell me about Arkansas’ NFL and NBA teams


Why would we want to support a bunch of over paid people that are too stupid to do anything but play with their balls. Not sure what the allure is. And of all states to be bragging about it Georgia pro teams are the laughing stock of the nation

Since 2009 I've had 6 years where my team has brought home the trophy. Thats basically every other year. In the years we didn't win we were in either in the championship game or very close to winning it. I dont know about most bama fans but I think having a shifty nfl team to break your heart most years is not something we want.

For someone who hates the State of Alabama so much, you seem to talk a lot about it.

We’ll do whatever we want to do here, and you guys do whatever you want to do there (such as voting for Joe Biden).

Btw, Alabama has a professional football team with a more recent championship than Georgia does.

You also have the Hawks and Falcons which are both super fun to watch right?

Google it pretty easy to find in regards to those demographics

quote:

A study conducted by CNBC ranked Georgia as the 11th worst place in the country in which to live. The network said it considered factors such as state laws regarding protections against discrimination and voting rights, crime rates, environmental quality, health, and child care to reach that conclusion.


One of many simple finds via search.

He’s just waiting for Stacy Abrams to go from Governor in exile to the Governor in residence. She’s going to make everything so much better in deep blue Georgia. (I should have left years before I did)

God forbid that to happen. If it does I may have to move. Alabama or Florida would both be better for me.

Did you wake up today and make the decision to be a dbag or is it your default setting?

Thank you for continuing to take the bait. Mississippi is actually the best place to live in the nation. We have fooled people and continue to do so that not too many people will move here. In fact one of my best friends who is African-American relocated and then retired in MS about 15 years ago. He grew up and lived in DC. He loves it here but he tells his family in DC, “No no, you don’t want to move here “ In reality, he does not want any of them to come mess up his hegemony. So you can keep urban mushroom that is Atlanta these days. We will be fine. We have plenty of entertainment opportunities that don’t include college sports. Pro sports are available if we wish to view them. New Orleans just down the road. Though, I rarely watch any pro sports these days. Baseball lost me when they cx the WS in 1994 (I think), NBA lost me after the glory years of the 70’s, 80’s and early 90’s, NFL when they let the Colts leave Baltimore in 1984. So all is good here.


All I took away from this is that you’re old as frick

The Falcons are professional team in name only. They're about 1 season away from being relegated to the XFL.

It's great to visit for a specific event or a weekend. I just wouldn't want to live there. It is absolutely a world class city though. With all the negatives and downsides that come with that.
