In Atlanta!!

Zombie drama shuts down Georgia highway

A zombie detour gives a whole new meaning to a mindless commute.

The popular AMC television show "The Walking Dead" began filming its second season here in Atlanta and is shutting down a state highway south of the city for most of this week.

A detour on Ga. 20 in Henry County near the Atlanta Motor Speedway will be shut down through late Thursday, Kimberly Larson, a spokeswoman for the state's Department of Transportation told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. The detour began Sunday.

The Channel 2 Action News helicopter has an image of the show's set. There are dozens of cars backed up and strewn along the highway.

The AJC reports that traffic is being detoured off the highway in both directions at East Main Street.

"It's a big inconvenience. I live right off of 20 so for me to go to McDonough where I work, I have to go all the way around through Clayton, which is extra gas," driver Demond Williams told Channel 2 Action News' Carol Sbarge.

Larson told the AJC that DOT issued a press release saying the highway would be closed for road work because it wanted to limit the amount of people showing up to watch the filming of TV show.

"The Walking Dead" stars Andrew Lincoln, Jon Bernthal, and Sarah Wayne Callies. From the show's website: "Waking up in an empty hospital after weeks in a coma, County Sheriff Rick Grimes (Lincoln) finds himself utterly alone. The world as he knows it is gone, ravaged by a zombie epidemic. 'The Walking Dead' tells the story of the weeks and months that follow after the apocalypse."

This is just one of the major productions filming in the Atlanta area.

    • I will start.  Please do not copy my ideas.  Reminder:  I SUCK at picking QBs, a tradition upheld since 2010. Aaron Rodgers___New York Giants__ Kirk Cousins*____will not be traded until after draft Sam Darnold __Minnesota Vikings (do not rule out a sign and trade) Justin Fields __Pittsburgh Steelers_ Russell Wilson Las Vegas Raiders So after these guys are signed in free agency, the following teams will need a QB entering the draft:   Cleveland NY Giants  (Signed Rodgers but might draft a QB too on day 2) NY Jets New Orleans Indianapolis Tennessee If my predictions are correct(?) two to three QBs could be available for trade.    Cousins could go to Indy, following the exit path for discarded Falcons QBs.  Tennessee will have to pick Ward and they should, which puts Cleveland in a unique situation.  I think the Jets, Raiders (if they don't sign Russell), and Saints will go hard after Sanders, and they will offer Cleveland a lot. Cleveland could move back, grab a bunch of draft capital, draft the T they need, and then they could draft a QB later--it all depends on how much they like Sanders.  The Saints have no cap room (-$44m), so a trade with Minnesota or Atlanta is out.  Moving up to #2 from #10 is expensive in terms of draft capital.  Suck it, Saints. They will have to stay with Carr.  I think that the Jets will trade up with Cleveland to get Sanders and Cleveland will take a T and draft a QB later.  Do not be surprised to see a player like Daniel Jones in Cleveland on a one-year deal if they trade back.  
    • Now Mikko is holding out on a Dallas trade over contract extension. He’s going to fug Canes over one way or another it appears. What we don’t need is a lame duck protecting his health for the free agent market, after paying the price of Necas and Drury for nothing.
    • Was listening to Rich Eisen, and he said he was hearing Darnold staying in Minnesota on a large, short-term deal (2 years?) and Daniel Jones to the Colts.
