Basic facts on the Falcons: In 2017, the Falcons will have a new home, called the Mercedes-Benz Stadium. The stadium includes a retractable roof and is located in downtown. According to inhabitat.com, "The new stadium will be an expansive 1.8 million square feet and will hold 71,000 seats. The main draw besides the game, however, will be the retractable roof with eight triangular petals that open by sliding apart diagonally, creating the illusion of circular motion. Inspired by the Falcon’s team logo, the architects consulted kinetic architecture consultant Buro Happold and the inventor of the Hoberman Sphere, Chuck Hoberman, to bring the architects’ dynamic vision to reality." The idea sounds neat and Falcons fans will soon enjoy the new stadium! This is Freddie Falcon. His Instagram is freddie.falcon. He likes to trash talk. Make sure to check out this bird.

Congratulations to the Denver Broncos on winning the Super Bowl. Defense most definitely wins championships.
It was a great season and I wish everyone the best! This isn't the end of the road forever. See you all very soon! Here's the schedule for today:
The actual game begins at 6:30 pm ET on CBS but pregame coverage begins at 11 am ET. If pregame coverage gets too repetitive, the Puppy Bowl will be on Animal Planet at 3 pm ET. The game this year will feature stars Cam Chewton and Peyton Panting. The Puppy Bowl has become a great tradition and is highly recommended for all! Enjoy the game because it's the last of the season! Remember to always have fun! Congratulations to the following players:
Todd Gurley (St. Louis) AP Offensive Rookie of the Year Marcus Peters (Kansas City) AP Defensive Rookie of the Year Ron Rivera (Carolina) AP Coach of the Year Wade Phillips (Denver) AP Assistant Coach of the Year JJ Watt (Houston) AP Defensive Player of the Year Eric Berry (Kansas City) AP Comeback Player of the Year Anquan Boldin (San Francisco) Walter Payton Man of the Year Cam Newton (Carolina) AP Offensive Player of the Year, AP Most Valuable Player This year was definitely an exciting one and these players were exceptional. I would highly suggest reading the story on Eric Berry because that man is truly a hero. I would also recommend watching Anquan Boldin's acceptance speech because the Man of the Year always has some of the wisest words to say. |
