That is ATl. for ya...

Atalnta isn't a sports town.......they have sports there. Just not any fans. I used to be a Braves fan. But not anymore.

I cared in 2007. I cared a lot.

Its plenty of loyal fans here but its hard to see pass everything else that goes on in Atlanta.

ChrisXVI · 08-02-2012, 03:52 PM

It's probably harder to see passed everything else going on in New York, Chicago, Dallas, etc. but they are passionate about their teams.

Try DC as well... Nations Capital... all the political BS. But the Skins reign supreme. I am glad to see hockey becoming more and more popular here to as that is probably my favorite sport.

... hmmm, you don't say? We do offer a Black&Gold Hockey Group for those who, on occassion, like to take a break from the NFL and dabble in the 'coolest game on ice' ... just so happens we're holding a membership-drive and have room for a Caps fan,

It doesn't surprise me that Falcons fans are not excited about the start of camp...keep in mind, this is a fanbase that usually don't show up for the actual games until the second quarter!

Actually, it is the meeting they skip out on because they are too drunk to go.
