As a Falcons & Tide fan, this is good news.

2. Julio Jones is hurt, but he says you shouldn't pay attention to it. "It's nothing,'' he said of the bone bruise on his right foot, suffered Friday in the first practice of his NFL career when he got stepped on while going in motion. "I can go full speed. They just want to be cautious.'' An X-ray and CAT scan showed no break Friday, and he was out on the practice field Saturday, running -- apparently -- unencumbered. For what it's worth, he is one determined hombre. Interviewed him after practice today, and he looked me in the eye on every answer. "I don't care about stats,'' he said. "I never will. I just want to win.'' I relayed the quote to GM Thomas Dimitroff. "Music to my ears. A receiver with no diva qualities.''

I think they are working on a play where Julio throws it to himself then catches it for a TD

Good stuff.

And he will win.  That kind of attitude is contagious.

I'm a fair weather Falcons fan.  It looks like the forecast is calling for sunshine this year.

The first Falcons/ Saints game will prolly have an all-time high TV ratings from the state of Alabama.

My only interest in the NFL is watching former Bama players to see how they represent the university.

I like it when he said he wanted to be a great player and person.
