Sweeping the Braves slaughter and Soriano injury under the rug...there's actually some good news out of Atlanta today!
Georgia Tech
First of all, in the only baseball story of the day (Bra-aves?), congratulations to the Jackets for beating the #14 Bulldogs 9-4 in Atlanta today. Deck McGuire got the win with a solid start, and Luke Murton was the big hitter (4-5, 1 HR, 3 RBI). The beesball Jackets move to 26-7 (9-6). I would have more, but I couldn't make it to the game today. Everybody else did, though:Game notes:
Nice. Not to be outdone, the GT softball team swept UGA in a doubleheader today. Good work, ladies.
Largest crowd (4,609) in Russ Chandler Stadium history.
Falcons
The new administration made a great move today by re-signing linebacker Michael Boley (ajc.com brief). The details aren't out yet, so no idea on length or money. Nevertheless, I'm thrilled this happened. Boley is the best defender on our team (except for maybe a healthy John Abraham), and one of the most underrated linebackers in the NFL. He's atheletic, strong, durable, and extremely versatile--good in run coverage, pass coverage, and even pressuring the QB. I'm glad he will continue his midfield patrol-ey.

Listen, I know I'm slacking in the UGA athletic news... because I don't follow it as closely. Sigh. I guess it is an Atlanta sports blog, but, still, quit the hating.
As for Boley, yes, awesome. So, career-ending injury in Week 3 or 4?
too bad i can't trade a tech sweep of uga in every sport other than football for a football victory
boley healthy for a whole season or abraham healthy for 5-7 games?
