Am I the only falcoholic who received the exclusive invite to the State of the Franchise event??? This was held last evening at the Home Depot Store Support Center in Atlanta (Vinings). Arthur Blank, Thomas Dimitroff, Rich McKay, and Coach Smith were all there. They spoke about the draft and how they thought that they did in regards to addressing needs. Coach is very excited and can't wait for the season to start (just like the rest of us). They spoke about the schedule this year, and where they see the team going. Many things were discussed and fan questions were taken by all at the end. There is a video of the whole affair on the Falcons website.  I was very impressed with everyone and even got to shake hands with them all at the end. They even mentioned that several players took MMA training as part of getting prepared for the season and that so many wanted to do it that some got turned away. Go check it out, I think you might hear some things that you like as well.
