By J. Michael Moore | Published: December 22, 2009
Monday afternoons are busy for me in Flowery Branch. Head Coach Mike Smith holds a press conference around 3 p.m. Then it’s a mad dash to the office — about 20 yards — to throw up some updates. Later in the afternoon I talk about the Birds on the radio, which I’ll share in regular segments [...]

Moving in and around the New York City area in a snow shower is easy for one or two people (did you know PATH trains have heated seats)? Moving a professional football team is a bit more complicated. So, faced with a storm that was shutting down parts of the mid-Atlantic, the Falcons and NFL took [...]

Comparing Ryan and Brady

By J. Michael Moore | Published: September 27, 2009
One day during his rookie season, quarterback Matt Ryan and other Falcons joined their head coach at PGA Superstore in Duluth for a golf lesson. Ryan didn’t really need it (he’s shot 88 at Augusta National) but he’ll never turn down a chance to learn something new. But it was in the tennis section of the [...]

A Look at the Throwbacks

By J. Michael Moore | Published: September 20, 2009
It’s Throwback Weekend in Atlanta and, besides honoring the 1966 team at halftime of today’s game, the Falcons are wearing some old-school jerseys. Good look for the Falcons, who haven’t “thrownback” since the uniform and logo change after the 2002 season. The Falcons will also wear the 1966 jerseys — black shirts, red helmets and all [...]

Halftime at the Georgia Dome during the Falcons-Chargers preseason game. Some thoughts brewing in the blog, but we’ll pass the time with a YouTube clip of the team’s pregame introductions (upload took a little while).

The View at Edward Jones Dome

By J. Michael Moore | Published: August 21, 2009
Random thoughts from the Edward Jones Dome press box while staring out on the light structure and rafters… So the seats here aren’t the best in the league, at least when it comes to proximity to the field. From my perspective, tonight’s preseason game between the Falcons and Rams will take place between two waring parties [...]
