Birdseed: March 11, 2010
One day, I’m going to convince people my life as a team employee is often more hectic in the offseason.
Contrary to popular belief, team bloggers don’t keep teacher hours and take an abundance of time off from March to July. Actually, this is a time players and staff alike catch up on all the things [...]

Birdseed: February 17, 2010
It’s been almost two weeks since the Super Bowl and — much to the joy of some ad executives — one commercial is still making the rounds. It’s spawned plenty of office laughs and discussion in Flowery Branch and sparked a Facebook page demanding results.
It’s also my favorite of a lackluster group of 2010 advertisements.
Why [...]

Birdseed: February 9, 2010
So here we are in the football offseason and less than a week into the blackout men and women everywhere are confronted with a dilemma — Valentine’s Day is Sunday. Oh, and you can’t use football as an excuse to forget a present or dinner plans.
Mrs. J. Mike and I don’t have a good track [...]

Birdseed: January 27, 2010
Flipped on TweetDeck this morning and picked up a report from @AJCFalcons at the Senior Bowl saying Oklahoma State cornerback Perrish Cox has talked with the Falcons.
Let’s first clarify simply talking to a player doesn’t guarantee a team is ready to draft him. One of the best parts about the Senior Bowl is the ample [...]

Birdseed: January 5, 2010
The buzz around the Internet today is on the coaching carousel.
Mike Shanahan to Washington. Assistants moving around and promoted to coordinator. Head coaches keeping the job for another year… for now.
Coach movement is something largely covered but not completely broken down. Consider for a moment the assistant coaches finding additional jobs and — in some [...]

Falcons Will Pick 19th or 20th
The 2009 season just ended for the Falcons, but that hasn’t slowed fans eager to find out where the team will make its first-round selection in the 2010 NFL Draft.
Multiple sources, including ESPN.com and ProFootballTalk.com, have the Falcons making the 19th or 20th selection in the draft. The exact position will be decided on a [...]

Birdseed: December 1, 2009
Even with all the good feelings and playoff appearance, I can’t say a game in 2008 had the same immediate impact Sunday’s game against the Eagles will have on the Falcons hopes.
Maybe it’s a case of proximity and point of view.
I guess if you were to pick, you’d select one of the games in November [...]

Even with a stomach full of delicious Chick-fil-A, sweet tea, coffee and a dash of trail mix (trying to do better with the diet) I couldn’t satisfy a hungry writing muse this afternoon.
While the gut may not be the only source of inspiration in my arsenal, it is where my classy sappy words of inspiration [...]

Birdseed: November 2, 2009
My colleague Matt Moore (@FalconsMMoore) has a story about the Superdome he tells before big games in New Orleans.
He says the only time he’s been concerned about the structural integrity of a stadium due to crowd noise was the Saints first home game in 2006 — the return to the building after Hurricane Katrina.
New Orleans [...]
