The Falcons Curse Is With You

by InMattWeTrust on Jan 16, 2012 12:21 AM EST

Congrats on your stunning win first. Most of America thought you would lose, but your skill plus the curse guided you. What is the curse you ask, well every team that prevented the Falcons from doing anything in the playoffs has either went to or won the Super Bowl. In 2008, the Cardinals beat us going to the Super Bowl to eventually lose. In 2009 the Saints stopped us from reaching the playoffs and won the Super Bowl. Finally, the Packers beat us last year and won the Super Bowl. This might be a coincidence but, to the BBVers that are superstitious, you have a curse on your side. Good luck.

Hahaha this is pretty sweet

Strikeouts are boring- Besides that, they're fascist. Throw some ground balls - it's more democratic.

No curse

But playing in a dome doesnt help. Domes anger the football gods. Not to fire and brimstone, but it’s not good.

On a serious note, saw you hired the Jags OC. Not sure that’s what I would have liked for you guys. Is he a west coast guy? That’s what I would have picked for you, would have made Julio a pro bowler and White would have thrived too. Oh well, I wanted a WCO here too and it worked out for us.

Good luck next season, beat the Saints

It’s already a wrap… might as well not show up tomorrow.
