People just don't get why we're over the moon

[heelsrule1988]

Man am I sick of having to explain myself tonight. People have killed me for "rooting for the Patriots". Nobody outside of us gets it. And look, I understand why the rest of the country was rooting for the Falcons. The Patriots are the evil empire. But people act as if we should just completely ignore our top rivalry. So I was not rooting for the Patriots to win, I was rooting for the Atlanta freaking Falcons to lose.

AND GOD ALMIGHTY, DID THEY LOSE.

The amount of hate I unleashed in real life and on Twitter (heelsrule1988 if you want to see for yourself... can't post here because of some uncharacteristic bad language hahaha) is unhealthy lmao. Holy crap. All this after I was sick to my stomach over the horrible outcome that seemed certain. After 28-3, I stopped watching a Super Bowl for the first time since XXXV (we all went outside to throw the football when the Ravens went up big) and went upstairs to play with the kids at the party I was at. Then one of my friends texted me and told me the Patriots were within a score and about to get the ball back. So I headed back downstairs to watch, begging the Patriots not to screw with my emotions. And what unfolded was the most glorious football result I've ever seen that did not involve my beloved Panthers. We really could not have hoped for them to lose in a better way. This was so much better than if the game had been a shootout. They were up 28-3, folks. 28-3. TWENTY-EIGHT TO THREE. An absolute CHOKE of truly epic proportions. They can't say a DAMN thing to us anymore. The Warriors are COMPLETELY off the hook... this will be the new 3-1 joke now. It was so, so beautiful. In the course of two hours, I went from wishing I didn't care about football to being SO fired up for next season. Now the ball is back in our court to make the Falcons the only team in the NFC South without a ring. Minneapolis or BUST, my dear fellow Panthers fans.

Oh, and one more thing. Matt Ryan... GET THE FUG OFF THE FIELD.

That one was from after the TD that made it 28-26. Couldn't get a good look at him right as the game ended, unfortunately... but the sentiment's the same so this will do haha.

@Proudiddy I'm just now scrolling through all the threads and just realized I unintentionally copied your closing shot at Matt Ryan haha. I had a lot of thoughts and feelings about tonight... I'm sure you'll forgive me. :P

All my friends that are Raider fans were rooting for the Falcons and asking how I could go for New England. I told them I hate Atlanta more than anyone and asked how they felt about Denver winning last year. 

Anyone that roots for our division rivals to win based on some weird complex of oh at least our division is the best can kiss my ass. I'd rather TB be the goat and Matt Ryan choke in epic fashion.

if I live to be a hundred years old this day won't get old, and I'll use it against ATL fans for as long as the Lord gives me control of my faculties. 

Eat poo Atlanta.

Nice to see that it took the falcons 50 years to do what we did in 20.  Seriously, I'm so glad they failed, such a turd sandwich of an organization with their smug dildo fans and A-hole owner.  So nice to watch them fail.

I'm so glad that I'm not the only person out here who feels this way. People act like we're crazy for rooting for the Pats, but the Falcons are our blood enemies... and they lost in the absolute perfect way. I agree that it was exhausting telling people that I always root for the underdog in a football game.... unless it's Matt Ryan and the Falcons.

If you had seen some of the posts on FB taunting Panthers fans. We're going to be "the laughing stock of the NFCS," they said. "Quinn > Rivera, Ryan > Cam, Blank > Richardson, and Dimitroff > Gettleman," they said. They just went on and on...Just like Falcon fans to count their eggs before they've hatched.

 

And here I was thinking that Cowboys fans were the cockiest fan base of all, all these years. The fact is Falcon fans took cock to a new level. Now they can take it right in the throat!
