I live in Decatur and there's a wonderful city of Decatur blog called Decatur Metro. Great way for Decaturites to stay in the know. Various opinions/view points...but all discussed fairly politely. Every Friday there is a "Free For All" thread where people can post any and everything...questions, observations, announcements, etc. With how well the Falcons are doing now someone posted this: Clairemont says: November 12, 2010 at 9:55 am How ’bout those Falcons?! Which prompted the following responses including mine and a desparging remark about WNBA/DREAM in reply to my post: Reply Marla says: November 12, 2010 at 10:04 am How ’bout those Thrashers? Reply Scarab says: November 12, 2010 at 11:59 am How about Atlanta’s CURRENT championship team? The WNBA ATLANTA DREAM: 2010 EASTERN CONFERENCE CHAMPIONS! Reply The Walrus says: November 12, 2010 at 12:18 pm Who? Calling on my fellow Dream fans (especially if you're in Decatur) to get the Dream's back and, if you feel so led, to respond to The Walrus' stupid comment. You'll have to scroll down a bit to find our portion, but here's the thread: www.decaturmetro.com/2010/11/12/free-for-all-friday-111210/#comments |

Oh, let me handle this! PLEASE do! I just posted this reply: The team that has been able to do more in just 3 short years in Philips Arena (2 playoff berths, coach of the year, rookie of the year, 4 All Star players, conference championship…need I go on?) than the Hawks and Thrashers combined….that’s who. But I'm chomping at the bit to see what you post!  |

Sorry Scarab. They are full of it on there. My friend and me posted something about the Dream and it was deleted. My comment is in moderation but it looks like they are probably going to delete it to..LOL. It was good too.

I posted this below. MY friends comment was much better but they deleted hers for some reason.
The Atlanta Dream are our professional womens basketball team in WNBA. They play in Phillips Arena just like the Hawks and Thrashers. If you go to Phillips, there are giant sized posters of Angel McCoughtry and Erika De Souza amidst the same rafters as Joe Johnson and Al Horford of the Hawks.
The Atlanta Dream only won 4 games as an expansion team three years ago. They got the first pick in the WNBA, Angel McCoughtry whose #35 is being retired today actually at the University of Louisville during the opening game for the Lady Cardinals vs the Tennessee Lady Vols. The WNBA Finals game was played at Phillips Arena to a sold out crowd. They lost to Seattle in the Finals. Attending that game were players from the Atlanta Falcons, Atlanta Braves, Atlanta Hawks and Thrashers, including former Falcon Coach Dan Reeves and Bobby Cox, know him? Also, for your John Smoltz fans, he’s on the Atlanta Dream male scrimmage team.

Yeah, she typed hers and it posted immediately, but they deleted it and I think put my IP in moderation so mine has to be read before they approve it. No matter, I still love Decatur..lol!  |

Also, for your John Smoltz fans, he’s on the Atlanta Dream male scrimmage team. Just checked....yours got posted. It's just not in reply to our portion of the thread. It's now posted at the very bottom of the thread (where the most recent comments/posts go)...which actually might be better....more people may see it instead going through all the older posts before it.  |
