Blank Talks

I'm not going to bash Arthur Blank. I do understand that he must have a tremendous amount of pressure to deal with right now. At least he finally released a statement. Unfortunately, it didn't tell us anything that we didn't already know... "We know you're anxious to hear more from us regarding the indictment of Michael Vick and its implications to the Falcons. Please be assured that we are working diligently on exploring our options and getting the right people involved in this situation. This is an emotionally charged and complicated matter. There are a wide range of interests and legal issues that need to be carefully considered as we move ahead, including our need to respect the due process that Michael is entitled to. Also, this situation effects everyone-- our club, our players and associates, our sponsors, our fans and the Atlanta community among them-- so we must consider all of our customers in making any decision. Given the differing perspectives and strong feelings around this issue, we probably won't make everyone happy; we are committed to doing the right thing. As the owner of this club that's ultimately my responsibility. In the meantime, know that I'm saddened and distressed about this not for myself, but for our fans and community who have been so loyal to us. We will do our very best to earn your support." So now we wait again... Arthur Blank, Atlanta Fa
