Note to self: Never bet on the Falcons having a winning season regardless of how much sunshine has been shoveled up my ass during the offseason.

We’ve got the steak dinner but not a knife. Not a reliable QB in sight.
You can’t really get too excited about anything, but it does feel like we’re headed in the right or better direction. So tell me if you’ve heard or felt that before….
Turns out Alex Van Pelt is not related to Scott Van Pelt. Weird
I’ve been stabbed so many times they can’t really hurt me anymore. I’m already fucken dead
Bijan 2.5k yards.
The falcons are guaranteed to win the division next year, if we stay healthy there is a home playoff game. I know the past is ugly, but it’s a new day for Atlanta football
All in for pain
Put it this way. We haven’t lost a game this season yet
You can both be excited and not have hope. It’s part of being an Atlanta sports fan
I’m setting a reminder for next September to have zero expectations of a good season
I’m not, I’m not silly enough, I go into every season expecting complete and utter mediocrity
I get hopeful every year no matter what happens.
Someone the other day posted the 2016 Braves opening day roster and it’s a big yikes in hindsight, but before that season I looked at the lineup and pitching staff and thought “we could make a run” lol.
I think the only year from any of my sports fandom where I didn’t have any hope was 2007 when it felt like this franchise was sliding into the abyss, but then Matt and Smitty saved us.
I don’t have a lot of hope for 26, but I’m off my “drafting top 3” take I had a month ago.
