TONY GONZALEZ TO THE ATL. The Pro Bowl tight end is dealt to the Falcons for a 2010 second-round pick. Suddenly, the Falcons offense looks that much more dangerous and Matt Cassel looks like he’ll be staring down Dwayne Bowe a little more often. COACH HALEY SAYS YOU’LL JUST HAVE TO DEAL, DICKLICK!
UPDATE: Noted Clinton Portis fetishist Chris Mottram calls the trade “a very-Snyderish deal” by The Falcons. Sure, but only if Atlanta turns around and gives him $50 million guaranteed. And surrenders two more 1st day picks to KC.

Goddamn Eagles! It was for a 2010 2nd rounder! You sloppy, tubby fuck! You couldn’t give up a pick NEXT YEAR ANDY REID?!?
April 23rd, 2009 at 3:20 pm
Legit fantasy football talent at four positions….the Falcons?!?
April 23rd, 2009 at 3:29 pm
Also, are the Carolina Panthers mentally challenged? Delhomme gets a 5 year 42.5 million dollar extension with 20 mil guarenteed? Seriously?!

*guaranteed

@ CVE
Indeed, fuck that tubby bastard in his many fatty folds. Christ, if that’s all it took to get the job done, we should have made this trade months ago. MONTHS!

I hope Joe Banner chokes on Andy Reid’s snausage and dies.

This will put a serious damper in my attempts to sleep with him.

The Falcons are building towards a strong 2003.
April 23rd, 2009 at 4:09 pm
“Very-Snyderish?” Is that like “quasi-Davisish” or “psuedo-Jonesian”? Peter King fucked over writing for everyone else, didn’t he? And you blogger fuckers need stop supporting this Twitter bullshit
April 23rd, 2009 at 4:10 pm
This is mainly for Otto:
What kind of OLine do the Chiefs have or are they focusing on that in the draft? Cause Matty C holds the ball a llloooooooong time.
April 23rd, 2009 at 4:16 pm
Fuck the Falcons.
That is all.
April 23rd, 2009 at 4:17 pm
Fill an important gap in a playoff team by only giving up a second-rounder next year for a Pro Bowler? Yeah, not very Snyder-esque at all.
April 23rd, 2009 at 4:21 pm
Fair to middlin’, Slothrop.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to go kick a puppy. Fuck.
April 23rd, 2009 at 4:23 pm
Fuck, first that prick Pioli makes Bellichick look like a douche and now he uses Atlanta trading a 58 year old has been for a 2cnd rounder. He must have used Coach Haley to sweet talk the Falcons.
April 23rd, 2009 at 4:25 pm
so they get rid of a decent blocker and sure handed bail-out and great goal line receiver for a 2nd round draft pick next year? with only a fair OLine to protect a guy who played one year behind a very good line and with great receivers and still got sacked more than any other QB in the National Football League? Yeah, that should work out fine.
April 23rd, 2009 at 4:33 pm
So I guess the Chiefs are going to suck this year?
April 23rd, 2009 at 4:41 pm
@ TurleyGirlie
What did the Falcons ever do you? Or anyone for that matter?
April 23rd, 2009 at 4:42 pm
Whoops, forgot about the Vikes. Sorry.
April 23rd, 2009 at 4:44 pm
Fuck, first that prick Pioli makes Bellichick look like a douche and now he uses Atlanta trading a 58 year old has been for a 2cnd rounder.
Gonzalez is getting up there in years but he had 96 catches for 1,000+ yards and 10 TDs last year working with the three-headed monster of QB ineptitude. I’d say he still has a few years of productivity left in the tank.
April 23rd, 2009 at 4:52 pm
Dear Chiefs Season Ticket Holder,
Today, we’ve traded Tony Gonzalez, our franchise leader in receptions, yards, and touchdowns. We’ve gone in this direction because it was CLEAR he WAS NOT WITH THE FUCKING PROGRAM so we SENT HIS ASS PACKING for a 2nd round pick in 2010 which I MAY NOT EVEN USE as the 2010 draft class LOOKS TO ME LIKE A BUNCH OF PUSSIES. Now if you are through WASTING MY FUCKING TIME please feel free to GO FUCK YOURSELVES.
Best,
Coach Haley
April 23rd, 2009 at 4:59 pm
How the hell was it this easy to get him…. 2nd, next year, which could make it about 60?????
April 23rd, 2009 at 5:32 pm
I’m tired of the Bellicheck acolytes acting like the hooded asshole, without winning like the hooded asshole. Crennell and Weiss are fucking failures. You’re next Pioli and McDaniel.
April 23rd, 2009 at 5:56 pm
In other news the Real Housewifes of Hotlanta was picked up for another year.

feel bad for Cassell, he is no Tom Brady. Tom was good enough to hit shitty receivers, then cassell took over and looked like a god when Welker and Moss saved his ass.
Now, he gets traded, loses the only decent receiver on the team and is stuck in the mid west.
April 23rd, 2009 at 7:54 pm
So all of our Tony Gonzalez jerseys just became classic?
April 23rd, 2009 at 8:06 pm
“Crennell and Weiss are fucking failures. You’re next Pioli and McDaniel.”
Don’t forget that the Mangina could fuck up a one car parade.

Wide open NFC. Falcons see a window and they’re jumping. Who do they have to be afraid of in ‘09-’10? The God Squad? Elisha? Jerry’s ‘Boys? The Injuns? The Iggles? Pfff. If Gonzales pans out, the Falcons should at least be in the NFC Title game. I’d bet your mom on it. And she’s priceless.

Saints fan.

Uh, yeah except for, you know, their defense sucking major ass. Yeah Atlanta is a sure bet. I’ll bet your mom on it.

DUDE THAT’S DISGUSTING! YOU NEVER MAKE THEM TOUCH!

Matt Ryan was a lucky SOB last year. My guess is he sucks dick next year. Also, he’s not as good a quarterback.
Tony Gonzalez is still worth a second-round pick next fucking year. You get a whole season of him before you even have to pay for him. Who even gives a fuck about 2010? We could all be dead or in a horrible depression.
April 24th, 2009 at 3:24 am
But Matt Ryan’s commercials…”before the playoffs…” {rewinds dick sucking footage} good christ please let him fail just so the nfl networks stops the shitbagging commericials.
April 24th, 2009 at 8:46 am
I’m sorry…I still can’t believe the Panthers signed DelHomme through 2014!!!! I don’t even think Bojangles would have the balls to do that. Have fun winning the NFC South for the next four years, Falcons and Saints!
April 24th, 2009 at 9:11 am
@Ape yeah, he has been productive the last few years. I thought he was older than 33.
April 24th, 2009 at 10:02 am
@G.G. – I love how you totally discount the Bucs.
No, I really do.
April 24th, 2009 at 8:01 pm
@Charlie…
Not so much a hype on Atlanta…honestly care less about them. The NFC looks to suck this year though. The mediocre will rise!
