- The Falcons are now #2 in the NFL in total defense, #4 in scoring defense, #2 in passing defense, #5 in sacks and tied for #1 in takeaways after tonight’s game.
- By any statistical measure, Matt Ryan was the greatest Falcon of all time. This is truly the end of an era in Atlanta sports.
- The Hawks are staying over in Philadelphia tonight and will fly to Milwaukee tomorrow. Nate McMillan wanted it this way because he did not want his players to pack to go home before a Game Seven. He wanted them to pack for the Conference Finals tomorrow.
- This was the greatest season in Atlanta Hawks history. No NBA team in this city got this close to the Finals. They have absolutely nothing to hang their heads over.
- Joe Buck has an NFL assignment and won’t call Game 7 tomorrow. Dodgers/Fox announcer Joe Davis will substitute.
- If you are a Braves-UGA-Atlanta United fan, four championships in five years is pretty awesome.
- It took five years, but the NFL finally gave us the halftime show thay they should have held in Atlanta.
- I can’t believe… -They went for it on 4th & 15 with three timeouts -They then stuffed TB out of FG range -They got away with throwing over the middle, twice, with 0 timeouts -They got a delay of game on a FG and still made it -They won an OT coin toss (never happens to ATL)
- “Atlanta sports” over the last 5 years: Two new stadiums New arena World Series Super Bowl MLS Cup A deep Hawks run MVPs in NFL, MLS & MLB UGA annual CFB contender GA St consistent bowl team GA Tech ACC hoops champs Massive soccer attendance records We’re luckier than we realize
- That is the NFL Game of the Year so far
- The Braves and Hawks are division champions in the same year for the first time ever (since both franchises moved to Atlanta)
