Why they might be annoying:

    They spent many years in the NFL's Western Division although being based out of Atlanta.
    After years of being teammates, Andre Rison and Deion Sanders came to blows during a game.
    Lisa Lopes of TLC burned down at-the-time Falcons receiver Andre Rison's mansion after an alleged fight.
    Running back Jamal Anderson had a touchdown celebration dance titled the 'Dirty Bird.'
    A 55 year old Dan Reeves (Atlanta's head coach at the time) attempted to do the 'Dirty Bird' dance.
    They lost by 15 points in their only Super Bowl appearance (1999).
    They went 2-10 without Michael Vick in 2003, causing Dan Reeves to lose his job.

Why they might not be annoying:

    They got there name from school teacher Julia Elliott, who won a contest to name the team. She suggested that the team be called the Falcons because 'The falcon is proud and dignified, with courage and fight. It is deadly and has a great sporting tradition.'
    They had a record of 14-2 in 1998.
    They drafted Michael Vick with the first overall pick in 2001.
    They upset the Green Bay Packers in Lambeau Field during the 2003 playoffs.
    When Michael returned for the last month of the 2003 season, they won 3 out of 4 games, leaving hope for them and their fans for the 2004 season.
