Dude, you might want to reset that one for the younguns who have no idea what you're talking about. Rowdy Yates is also the name of a nationally syndicated country music jock, who used to be on air in Houston.

Somewhere over the rainbow!
Dont worry too much about its origin... It restarts every time a Falcants fan comments in an article. They justify the hate every hour on the hour.

A couple added tidbits: (old guys help me out)

-- I think the Falcons were our first Hail Mary loss.

-- one time they just kept piling on and beat us 67-7

-- another time, in 83?, they took out the whole 3rd quarter in one drive... that
one is where I got the hate.

-- in '87, we lost to the 49ers by 2... Morten missed a FG that would have won... Jim Mora delivered the famous "coulda, woulda, shoulda" tirade -which triggered a rampage thru our next 3 opponents (one of my favorite times being a Saints fan) --- we kicked it off with a 38-3 demolition of the Falcons. (lead to a gutsy rematch win with the 49ers in Candlestick)

-- in the old days, we had a long history of fighting with Falcon fans in the stands.... in Tulane Stadium, and Fulton County Stadium.

Along the "old guys" lines, might bare to point out that the two cities have hated each other going back to the Civil War and Reconstruction, football is just a continuation of that rivalry/hatred.

Falcons


The Gleeson statue item has not been added yet.

I am going with the Beagle. There will be a lot of offense in that game, and my entire fam are Eagles fans who enjoyed ripping me during the 49ers game last year.

Redskins - season opener.
We always seem to let rookie QB's off of the hook.
I want to see that change. Welcome RG3 into the league
with a nice 43-10 azz whipping he never forgets.
And I wish him well in that division especially against the girls.
We need to set the tone for the season in week one.
Total domination on both sides of the ball.
