The only positive from tonight

At least the Steelers won't have to open at Foxboro to open next season. They play the Pats at home. Hopefully the NFL makes the Falcons open in Foxboro. They more than any team deserve to have to watch the celebration since they're responsible for it.

Other possible opening games: Chiefs or Panthers.

It should be the Falcons though.

Look at Atlanta - it's a pathetic sports city. On par with cities like Cleveland for how bad they are.

 

I have a lot of friends in Atlanta. The food is terrific. But the city itself is awful, one of the worst places I have ever visited. I have never seen so many homeless people in my life, and remnants of old Southern values are still there, deeply embedded in the culture. The loss to the Pats will sting Atlantans like two WS losses to the Yankees: because they HATE northerners. And I am not kidding.
