  7. NAW please find OJ Santiago, your homie who played for Falcons back in the day. He truly enjoyed and celebrated his time as a professional Canadian athlete in the ATL!

  11. Walker is playing better than Trey. I bet anything he has a higher field goal percentage this year than any year Trey had. Trey may have a place on some roster but he seems to be jinxed.

  13. Got to keep these two until they retire. GREAT interview. Both of these guys have seriously got it going on. Both are absolutely as well-grounded as anybody could ever be. I know everybody's calling this JJ's team (and it will be), but right now – THESE two guys are the voice of reason and experience. These two guys (IMO) are the main reason the Hawks are where they're at right now.
