Can this marriage be saved?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Can the marriage between Grady Jackson and the Atlanta Falcons Football Club, Inc. be saved after the player basically filed a divorce action against the team?
If Jackson was trying to get out of town, then he probably punched his own ticket.
But perhaps the Falcons should not let the legal wrangling get in the way of the fact that they need a big run stuffer like Jackson.
If Jackson is underpaid and wants to re-do his deal, perhaps the Falcons should go to the linebackers and get a donation or two for Jackson. He keeps offensive guards from getting to the linebackers and he’s good for a tackle or two in the backfield every game.
Should the Falcons:
A) Tell Grady to “Hit the road Jackson and don’t you come back, no more, no more”?
B) Kiss and makeup. Throw him some cash as a reward for a solid season and settle the lawsuit out of court?
