LMAO!

Brotha Harvey I have always loved ATL, but there is a great divide in that city. Its a city in which black folks make over 50% of the population. Not only that but there is such a large middle and affluent class of black folks in that city. Its truely a black Mecca. Now I can’t speak on DC I haven’t been there before. Also I know places such as the suburbs of detroit (Palmer Woods) have a extreme amounts of black wealth. But I am only talking citys.

I can remember talking to my cousin at xavier (N.O) and all of her friends talking about moving to ATL once they graduated and become doctors. Or how the majority of black folks that I graduated with in college who moved……..left to go to ATL. And if they moved somewhere else like Texas they only went there because they couldn’t find a job in ATL. It just seemed like every black college kid from the sout who lived outside of ATL, Miami or Texas wanted to move to ATL.

ATL is a unique city…….different then any other city that I have been to that is prodominently black (Gary, Jackson, N.O., Memphis, Detroit). I mean this is a place where you will actually see black faces at NBA and NFL games. Not just a sprinkle here and there but tons of black faces. I mean where else in America do you see that???

IMO this is where the hate comes from. The bigots can’t get away from us. Everywhere you turn there are people who look like us. From professionals, to VPs to doctors, to middle class and poor. Its black folks living just as well if not better then a great deal of the segments of haters. So no braging about your education when Morehouse, Spellman and Clark are there. No talking about your money when folks are managers, VPs and making as much bank as you.

So the hate for Vick was one more reminder of who was the majority of the city they lived in. It was a reminder that no matter how much money they made they still couldn’t get away from the ATliens cause many of them made just as much.

So you have kats who live there and hate the city…….because its bizzaro world for them. Everything is backwards……in there eye.

Then on top of that Obama the president……….LOL!!!

Let me make what I’m about to say clear also but the redneck contingent that’s always just under the surface here came out after the game on 790′s post game show when a caller said the Falcons shouldn’t be playing in the “inner-city” because the real fans don’t come to the games. We all know what he meant by that which was that all those “coloreds” in there rooting for that con-Vick were ignorant negroes who don’t deserve to be treated with respect due to paying White customers. SMH and reminds me the only reason I’ll ever live here again is for my son.

However, the REAL truth of the matter is that these same radio personalities are upset because:

1.) Michael Vick is back in the league and making millions
2.) He is STILL beloved here in the ATL, despite what the haters may say or think
3.) The fans wanted to see him come in and do well
4.) There were more cheers for him than boos.
5.) The Falcons organization were embarrassed on national television.

I have just three words — “GET OVER IT!!!!!”

I give respect to Andy Reid for understanding how much this game meant to Vick by making him a team captain, allowing him to lead the team out of the tunnel and give him the opportunity to show the world that he still “got it”. So what if the Vick haters are upset? It’s called “karma”. After all the hate that was showcased before and especially during Vick’s downfall, it was only right that he come back here and tell the haters to eat a d*ck by throwing a TD pass and running for another. His actions spoke and his TRUE fans spoke even louder by cheering him on. Like Miranda said, it couldn’t have been scripted any better in a movie.
