A Message to our Fans:
We know youre anxious to hear more from us regarding the indictment of Michael Vick
and its implications to the Falcons. Please be assured that we are working diligently on
exploring our options and getting the right people involved in this situation.
is is an emotionally charged and complicated matter. ere are a wide range of interests
and legal issues that need to be carefully considered as we move ahead, including our need to
respect the due process that Michael is entitled to. Also, this situation affects everyone our
club, our players and associates, our sponsors, our fans and the Atlanta community among
them so we must consider all of our customers in making any decisions.
Given the differing perspectives and strong feelings around this issue, we probably wont
make everyone happy, but we are committed to doing the right thing. As the owner of this
club thats, ultimately, my responsibility.
In the meantime, know that Im saddened and distressed about this not for myself, but for
our fans and community who have been so loyal to us. We will do our very best to continue
to earn your support.
Arthur M. Blank
Owner & CEO
