PrintWHEREAS, the Atlanta Falcons, currently 8-7, can guarantee themselves a winning season by defeating the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this Sunday; and
WHEREAS, the Falcons organization has never experienced two winning seasons in a row; and
WHEREAS, having earned an 11-5 record in 2008, a win Sunday will earn the Falcons their first successful back-to-back winning seasons in franchise history; and
WHEREAS, the Saints, being the Falcons' oldest rivals, have given Atlanta fans cause for joy and despair in roughly equal measure; and
WHEREAS, Saints fans this year have enjoyed an excess of elation over the thus-far-successful campaign of their team, and are in a magnanimous mood;
THEREFORE, we, the undersigned Saints fans and members of Canal Street Chronicles, wish to redress the balance, and extend to Falcons fans everywhere, and in particular to those members of The Falcoholic, our heartiest best wishes for a triumphant outcome in Sunday's game, and a successful conclusion to the Atlanta Falcons' quest for back-to-back winning seasons. No, really.

Go kick some serious booty
But watch out…don’t underestimate this Bucs team. We did, and it cost us…big time. Play up to your potential and you’ve got your winning season.
BURN THE BLACK PANTS!!!
hehehehehe
you said booty
kick their booty and then take it from them (their Pirate’s treasure booty, I mean)

Dave The F and all you rehab resistant Falcoholics, best of luck on Sunday as your boys spank the uppity Bucs and put two winning seasons together, back to back. You’ve got a great team and staff, sure to be a problem for the Saints for years to come. I like that Harry Douglas a lot, as long as he’s not playing the Saints. Good luck!
Peace, love and understanding.
Tell me, is there no place for them today?
Good Luck Falcons
Truely, y’all have been very gracious to us in the past and we really want to wish y’all good luck in back to back winning seasons. It’s hard to believe, with all the good teams you’ve had, but get it over with this year. And, with enemies like y’all, who needs friends. LOL
This is OUR year!! Yea, I said it. Who Dat!!!
You Can Do It!!!
To Dave the Falconer, Tom Slick, and all the other cool, classy Falcons Fans – You Can Do It!
I know that back-to-back winning seasons are pretty commonplace in other galaxies of the NFL universe, but for us guys in the NFC South, hey, it can be a pretty big deal. Congrats on your season so far. Just one more to go and you can put another (Falcon) feather on your Official NFL Authorized Cap!
I’ve enjoyed visiting "The Falcaholic" during the season and look forward to more of this next year. I, and many other Saints Fans, will be rooting for you guys to beat the Bucs. If you want your offense to run the score up on them here’s a suggestion: Don’t look at film of their last game!
So, all the way from Okinawa, Japan ~ GEAUX FALCONS!!!
Fat, dumb, and happy. Hell, two out of three ain't bad!

Good luck, youse guys
Saints fans have had it just about as bad as Falcons fans over the years. Even without the few drops of Cajun blood in my veins, I’d pull for the Saints just from a humanitarian perspective. Get that D healthy, looking forward to the postseason!
NO!!!

I've got money, effort, and heart invested in those Saints of yours
They better get to and win the SB or I’ll have to revoke Dave’s red bean and rice privileges.
Seriously, thanks for all the support. Though it may cause tremors in the earth’s crust beneath the Georgia Dome,

GEAUX FALCONS!

Congrats on a great season for the second year in a row, finally (and yeah, we know how that feels…chasing consistency!)
Good luck guys, and thanks for being the coolest opponent fans ever.

Irony: An atheist Saints fan.
GSO.
I live in Asheboro. I don’t have cable/satellite. I’ve been forced to watch the Panthers all year long. It has been depressing at best. Haha.
That being said, it brings a tear to my eye to see a group of Saints fans wishing the Falcons well. Well, a theoretical tear.
I really hope you guys make it to (and win) the Super Bowl. The only team I would accept aside from the Saints would be the Vikes, but if it came down to that, I’d take the Saints.

I’ll definitely be rooting for you guys. Even though you beat us twice this season, both games were so entertaining – and your fans are real gents.
um
which game were you at???

ok then
I was gonna say. I was at the game and I saw some things that I couldnt believe. Lots of hate from people who had no reason to be hatin. but that was just a few of the many who were there and most of the haters had brand new aints gear on so maybe they are bandwagoners…

This just isn't right
it’s like a bizzaro world. Just the other week I was cheering the Saints…….oh god I just coughed up some blood……against the Boys and now this, the world actually might end in 2012 if crap like this keeps happening.
hate to say it
because I hate the cowboys with a passion after 1980, but I was laughin my arse off that they beat the aints. The aints are my favorite team.. to hate.

Good luck.
Maybe the last time you ever hear that from me (unless in the future a win from you would affect the Saints’ playoff hopes).
"Gowin on fourth and 14 will punt it away. He hangs it very high, angling it for the near sideline...HAKIM DROPS THE BALL!!! HAKIM DROPS THE BALL!! Brian Milne might've fallen on it at the ten yard line! It's the New Orleans Saints' football! Brian Milne, the most unlikely hero of them all, falls on the fumble, the muff by Hakim! There is a God after all!" -- Jim Henderson

This was an extremely cool gesture, and I appreciate it. Good luck out there, kids!

By 2:30 PM Mountian Standard Time on Sunday...
I will be jumping up and down to the fact that the curse is over, and the monkey is gone!!!
For the Playoffs, I will be cheering for the Saints and Packers in the NFC, and AFC Indy, Cinci and Denver if they can get in.

Netter late than never - good luck
Please beat the bucs – I can’t bear to see Raheem Morris do any more chest bumps. May the spirit of Steve Bartkowski be with you…
he always is with me
I wear his jersey to every home game. although he isnt dead, so spirit might not be appropriate here…

%#$@&!!!!
Steve Bartkowski…full of grace, the Lord is with thee, blessed art thou among quarterbacks, and blessed is your desperation last-second pass, which could only have worked against the Saints. I think I’ll name it after mom.
BURN THE BLACK PANTS!!!
NFC South
Thanks to all you Saints fans rooting the birds! Our rivalry not withstanding, there is no one more deserving than the Big Easy when it comes to the success the Saints are rolling out. Great times for the NFC South!
Saints-Falcons are like a couple friends who fight all the time. When going head to head all bets are off….but when going against somebody else, you know you’re friends got your back.
Saints = Super Bowl Champs
Falcons = Back to Back Monkey off our back!
Here hoping on BOTH counts!!!

we won yesterday, and what I say about this finally happening...
YES, GO FALCONS IT FINALLY HAPPENED WE DID IT EVEN THOUGH WE DIDN’T MAKE THE PLAYOFFS! once again, I’ll cheer GO FALCONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Congratulations on the back to back winning seasons!
I know I’m late to the party, but I’m happy for Falcons fans. If the Saints don’t pull it together for the playoffs, you guys may be ending the season on a happier note than us. I expect the Falcons to remain a force in the NFC for years to come. The NFL schedulers really doomed you guys this year. Let’s find out who they are and TP their houses.

when Isaw our strength measures for our schedual I was not only shocked
and confused. How did we get that when we only won the wild card and they gave the steelers a way easier schedual and yet they didn’t even make it to the playoffs. We could have beaten the dorks of New England but they got away with alot of stuff that killed us and so did the cowboys (refering to uncalled penalties)
