Falcons want outdoor stadium

No offense to anyone here, but soccer blows. And I don't give a rat's carcass, WHAT the rest of the world thinks.... NFL is football, and the only football worth watching...

That was kind of my point with the Uruguay and Honduras World Cup comment. Nobody cares about the world cup, nobody will be watching it except a bunch of lunatic soccer fans from another country who will riot when their team loses.

Are you familiar with Rugby football?......the father of American football before pads were introduced? Try to watch a game sometime. It's fun to watch but can be difficult to follow. But, I agree about soccer wholeheartedly. Soccer has taken over in the states, but then again so has the Spanish speaking population.

I actually used to get up early on Saturday mornings, to watch the New Zealand All Blacks play, on Fox Sports. Those guys are intense. I like Rugby, it's freaking brutal! Soccer is like watching paint dry....

Yes, soccer does blow, but soccer is foot ball... The NFL is handegg.

Almost every teacher in Georgia took a 4% pay cut this year, and every other public servant: police, EMT, firefighters, also took a hit.

So, there isn't tax money for the important things like education and public safety, but there is $$$ for a stadium that is completely unnecessary. What is the GA dome, 12 years old?

ass-backwards fiscal responsibilty

Agreed. Was thinking the same thing. Out here in California, they're cutting jobs in schools at an alarming rate, but talking about building the 40 whiners a new stadium. When does the madness end?

Maybe they are using the money that they were SUPPOSED to use, to build the new Bay Bridge, because no one seems to know what happened to it....

hahahahahahaha!

You know, lets face it. Outdoor stadiums on a decent weather day are the best. I sat in Candlestick in the cold, the Sombrero in the heat, Shreveport's I-Bowl in the rain. --- and I loved it all. The view is what does it for me. I wish the Saints would play one November game in Tiger Stadium, just one a year.
