We do this every year. For the NFL and the fans thereof, Draft Day is a little like Christmas; it is a holiday when all else ceases to matter and the family gathers for show and tell. The sports media loves it every bit as much, too. Heck, after an unyielding and seemingly unending basketball season has sent millions in search of therapy, and baseball that threatens another ...

Georgia Dome, Atlanta, Georgia, Sunday Dec. 13, 2009. ItÆs almost game time and you are the head coach of the Atlanta Falcons. Huddled around are your soldiers and as always, they are psyched and ready to go. But, you know that half of them are banged up, some pretty bad, including your No. 1 QB and RB.

You donÆt really have to look to know it but, if you must, it can be read it in nearly every article and comment by every Falcon beat writer and fan from Columbus to Savannah, Dalton to Valdosta, and all points in between. The loss to the Patriots last ...
