Rob Parker Doesn’t Deserve His Job | ATLsports.tv: You paint a broad brush and call out an entire city’s fan base using stereotypes and baseless myths without looking at facts and the possible causes. Your article was insulting and demeaning and reeks of New York elitism. How Atlanta can be punished for being a growing city that is 28% of New York’s size is one of the worst cases of media bias in recent sports journalism.
I am proud of who I am, and who I am is an Atlantan. The sports teams in Atlanta represent me and the memories of these teams, from the Thrashers to the Braves, the winning and the losing, the highs and lows, will be memories I remember and cherish until my death. No matter where I move, these teams will represent me and I will be their passionate fan. As I am sure you have noticed by the reaction your article has received, I am not alone.
