Feeling bad for Arthur Blank...

...I know, I know, Arthur Blank has more money than God, these are the Dirty Birds, and we should all be happy of their demise. After all, Atlanta is the Saints true rivalry. But I can't help it but feel bad for Arthur Blank. I think he's a great owner, who wants to make his team a winner and doesn't spare a dime in doing so. He's good with the fans, the players, the media... they have some quality people playing football for them, in Warrick Dunn, Keith Brooking, Alge Crumpler... but man, the way Blank has gotten stabbed in the back this season, that's gotta hurt. First Vick just lying to the man's face, and y'all know had Vick been honest, Blank would've done everything in his power to do right by Vick, then Petrino bailing out the way he did.

A lot of people are saying "Petrino went to Atlanta to coach Mike Vick" and excusing his bailing out because Vick is no longer there, but his title wasn't Mike Vick's Head Coach, or Quarterbacks Coach, it was The Atlanta Falcons Head Coach.
