    5 Activities to Do This Weekend in Atlanta

    While conversating with a friend, we talked about him starting his new job where he’s helping build bridges. The process was interesting because that’s one thing I’ve always been curious about.

We talked about what we considered to be the best Car injury law firm. We’ve known each other and pretty much know everything about each other’s families.

    As we all know, Raw invaded Atlanta and they had a huge show planned. After last week’s debacle where the crowd was dead for a damn good Raw, Atlanta had to do better.

There were a few legends that would be in attendance to honor the 16-time champ. Later on, it was announced that Roman Reigns would show up to give an update on his cancer treatment. With guys like Batista and the Rock in Atlanta, it was rumored they could also show…

    Atlanta Falcons Need To Consider New Offensive Coordinator

    The Atlanta Falcons are just a couple of years removed from playing in the Super Bowl. And while their roster is largely the same as the one who played in that game, the team looks like a shell of its former self, as the Falcons have struggled to find ways to put points on the board. With their playoff hopes all but gone for 2018, the Falcons need to think about their future, and consider a future without current offensive coordinator Steve Sarkisian. Sarkisian took over for former offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan, who left the Falcons after their Super Bowl collapse to take the head coaching job of the San…

Both teams couldn’t hit nothing through stretches that saw them hurl 3s left and right. Dewayne Dedmon provided a spark for the Hawks as this was his first game after missing the first four with an injury. Dedmon was everywhere as he finished with 13 points, 13 rebounds and 5…
