Question from a falcons fan, why do you guys hate our fanbase?

[KingsoftheSouth]

Just a simple question, ive noticed alot of threads since ive been here calling the falcons fan base all sorts of names.

The reason I ask this is, from my expierence most NFL fanbases are the same, Im sure there are falcons fans that come here and rub every loss you guys have in your face, i know there are falcons fans who are very unclassy.

that being said guys there are some pretty unclassy panthers fans, saints fans and bucs fans too. that rub losses in our face, that were on our message boards given us grief last year when obviously we were having a bad year.

I think you guys started really not liking our fanbase, when we had an unclassy QB and you guys thought the majority of our fanbase, took to his personallity, wich some did, and is understandable.

but I served 3 years in fort bragg in the army in N.C surronded by panthers fans, and trust me the ppl in both states are alot alike, except we pull for a different team.

just wondering why u guys think the falcons fans are more unclassy then any other teams fanbase?

In a nutshell, when you guys drafted Vick, his presence unfortunately came with a tribe of incoherent blind fans that we could definitely see was just riding the coattails of the Falcons because that happened to be the team their "gangsta" QB was playing on.

Once you took out the trash, the quality of your fans started to improve almost immediately, telling us what we knew all along that a lot of Falcon fans were just on the bandwagon because they were really Vick fans.

Now I have to say the Saints fanbase has gotten more annoying than the Falcons', at this point anyway.

Yeah, theyre not as near as bad now. It did seem for awhile that they always had scumbag players though. Andre Rison, Deion Sanders, Vick, Deangelo Hall. Plus you guys stomped us regularly for awhile and had many chuckles about it. Yeah. Im getting angry thinking about it hahahha

Andre Rison was awesome though

well your reason is very logical, i'll admit I my self spend alot more time on the falcons message board now then i did during the vick era. and your right we had alot of band wagon fans riding vicks nuts, hell what amazes me, are the ones that are still around on the message board. we have fans from canada, california, iowa, and many other places where it would be bizzare to be an atlanta falcons fan

they all admit to jumping on board when vick was drafted.

alot of the chaos that was the falcons message boards is gone now that vick is gone , though

hahaha. I didnt say they werent talented, just that they were scumbags.

I think trying to pinpoint it on the "dirty birds" fans opens up a can of worms.

[StepandFetch]

a lot of it has to do with the handful of ATL fans that show up before/ after a falcons- panthers game with absolutely no class or common sense whatsoever... they rub wins in for the rest of the season, and blame losses on every thing but their own team..

Atlanta is my 2nd team... So there you go

I don't hate Falcon fans more than Saints or Bucs Fans. I hate you all equally from the bottom of my heart.

ha ha thats what im talkin about thats the answer i was lookin for

Only fans I can say I have no love for are Eagle fans! That goes back to a defeat in their home by our Panthers in the playoffs of 2003 where an Eagles fan, upset that Carolina was beating them the way we got beat Saturday night, told a complete and utter fabrication to a security guard that a few nearby Panther fans had physically assaulted her, which caused them to be taken to the stadium jail! (Having a stadium with a built-in jail should say enough about those fans)

Stadium video later proved the men had no contact whatsoever with the woman.

Other Panther fans at that game had their cars vandalized, or were littered with beer and other garbage during the game.

I can deal with a little trash talk in the parking lot by Atlanta fans, but when people pull crap like the above incidents, that is just too much.

I hope Arizona beats them so badly this week that our loss to AZ will seem like a close game!
