The Blue Bird Herd

Hey Hawks Fans,

Bet you were all wondering where I’ve been for the last little while….or more likely forgot totally that I existed.
Well, I’m here to announce that rumours of my absence have been greatly exaggerated, and that I’m pumped and ready for the 2011-2012 NFL Season. The NFLPA and Owners have finally taken a lesson from my 3 year old and decided to learn to share and play nice, and I’m ALMOST to the point that I can forgive them. The first clash of pad on pad should complete the process nicely.

Anyways, not much I can add to Derek’s thoughts on the ‘Hawks acquisitions in the last few weeks at this point. I was initially quite skeptical of the Tavaris Jackson pickup, but now that Sidney Rice is aboard I can see Darrell working some magic using some guys that already know his system. T-Jax is a known commodity to Bevell, and I can’t imagine that he would be picked up lightly. I’m thrilled at both the re-signing of Mebane, and the other additions to the line. All we need is to pick up a corner, and I’ll be more than happy heading into camp.

Until then, Go Hawks Go!

Expect to hear more from me soon!
