I’m Dreaming of a White…

By J. Michael Moore | Published: December 18, 2009
Falcons-Jets game? The 10-day forecast on Weather.com has the odds of morning snow in East Rutherford, N.J. at 90 percent. That means the Falcons are getting ready for frigid playing conditions and any type of footing. Earlier in the week Head Coach Mike Smith called Sunday’s game a “two chin-strap” matchup, referring to a tough, hard-hitting affair. [...]
