I was in Bill Simmons's article a few weeks back about ATL sports. I think this sums up my love for SMU too:

Miami's Bye Week (-6.5) over Atlanta's Bye Week
How tough was this week for Atlanta sports fans? A glassy-eyed Rembert Browne asked me after three drinks this week, "Do you think I should own the Atlanta sports corner for Grantland, or is that corner just too depressing?" The answers: yes and yes. (By the way, EVERYONE is depressed about Julio Jones going down. Who wants to live in a world with a RedZone channel that doesn't have Julio Jones? I certainly don't.) Here's the best Atlanta e-mail I received this week, courtesy of Harrison in Atlanta:

"In my 26 years of living in Atlanta, tonight is without a doubt the worst night ever. Tonight was worse than Game 7 of the 1988 EC Semis vs. Bird, Game 6 & 7 of the 1991 World Series vs. the Twins, the 1996 World Series vs. the Yankees (took first two games at Yankee Stadium and promptly lost the next 4), our only Super Bowl appearance (damn you Eugene), the 2005 18 inning NLDS walk-off loss to the Astros and Chris Burke (Yes, Chris Burke), the 2012 Infield Fly Wild Card Game and even the 2013 NFC Championship. Being an Atlanta sports fan is like being in love with a knockout stripper who keeps breaking your heart by stealing all of your money, only you can't help going back time and time again."

D needs to step it up and shut Cincy down.

[NY Pony]

Anyone else think that we should have gone for 2 there to get the deficit to 10?
