		<description>Randy Moss stated that the Patriots will be better than the record setting team.

I&#039;m taking bets that the Patriots put up 50 plus points on the birds.

Any takers?</description>

		<description>I can&#039;t believe the Vick Supporters....uhm......let&#039;s see the best thing on the field? Let&#039;s try, no have you ever heard of Bartkowski, Andrews, White Shoes, Tuggle, Nobis, Van Note, Deion, Roddy, Burner, Mattyice, and now Gonzalez? Yes, our D may be a concern, but I think team speed is what will make us win at least 10, but I see a 12 to 14 win season coming.  Undefeated at home.....all I have to say....

Now about you UGA idiots.....this is a Falcons post.  Why are you here? And as I always say, what has UGA done in 30 years? One title and wins in the Peach and Weedwacker bowls...hooohoooo...and who&#039;ll ever 4get the Hawaii Bowl? Oh, yeah I did as I fell asleep.</description>

		<description>Man...you people STILL can&#039;t stop talking about The Great Mike Vick.  I thought you people said that he was nothing?  Apparently not.  He is the best thing the Falcons ever had on the field and you know it.

		<description>&quot;SUPERBOWL or BUST&quot;

This team has everything needed for success.

Pro Bowl Running Back

Pro Bowl Wide Receiver

Pro Bowl Tight End

Pro Bowl Quarterback (oh that&#039;s Vick) sorry about that


Now there should be no excuses for not winning the superbowl this season.  A consecutive 1 and done is not acceptible.

Missing the playoffs is not acceptible!

The GM, Coach, Owner and QB are the leaders of the franchise.  All the blame should go to the quarterback because he is the leader of the team.  Therefore if the team is a failure, the quarterback will be responsible.

I mean, Vick was responsible for 2005 and 2006 - right?  Coincidentally, he still managed to make the pro bowl in one of those seasons and 3 times total in 4 full seasons.

Now the bad news:

There is rumbling in the ranks.  It appears that Roddy White and John Abraham are not happy about the &quot;crappy&quot; pay they are receiving.  Apparently, in order to earn 72-million dollar contracts, all you need to do is choke in the playoffs.</description>

		<description>@   What!!!  -  July 8th, 2009  9:04 pm

“350 dogs seized in dog fighting sting in 5-STATES”
You dog lovers go get em - oh that’s right, their name is not Vick and their eyes are blue  &quot;   





WOW.  

Boy, are you &quot;Vick Supporters&quot; stupid!     

Your average dog fighter, UNLIKE Mike Vick, does not have the wealth or resources to run an illegal interstate gambling operation.  

Vick went to federal prison for GAMBLING illegally across state lines and profiting from it, not for the raping and killing of dogs he did.

		<description>I agree with Don&#039;s comment on Bobby Cox. I think he is nodding off between pitches...or drinks. He lives and dies by the same rules of his retarded thumbs - lefty against righty, middle reliever for the 7th, setup for the 8th, closer (whoever that is) for the 9th. He constantly changes pitchers who are in a groove because that is just the way he has always done it. Hanson was smokin&#039; last Saturday through seven innings but pulled him anyway, only to watch the bullpen blow it. STOP CHANGING PITCHERS SO SOON - its like me changing my tire just because it hasn&#039;t went flat in a while!!</description>
