Dirty Birds Dispatch: Your weekly home for everything Falcons

Another Atlanta Falcons season is officially underway.
And while the results may … uh … may not go their way all the time, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution is here through the thick and thin.
That includes the Dirty Birds Dispatch.
Your weekly newsletter destination for fresh Falcons news and analysis — stuff you won’t get anywhere else — is now hosted by beat writer Daniel Flick (@ByDanielFlick). He’s an Indiana grad with roots in Alabama. And he’s good … real good.
Thorough. Smart. Funny.
From a self-introduction he wrote back in May:
“Storytelling matters. That’s why I’m a journalist. I love getting to know about athletes’ journeys, and I thoroughly enjoy sharing what I learn with readers who are similarly curious. I was once a fan, too. I wanted to know more about my teams and my favorite players, and sometimes even the third-string linebacker. For the most part, I write what I’d want to read. I think I owe it to myself, and to a larger degree, the readers.
“Away from the computer, I like playing basketball — please ask about my game-winner in Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall — and running. I’m a coffee connoisseur and a fan of food. All kinds, really. Barbecue is great.”
So is the Dirty Birds Dispatch, which hits inboxes every Thursday.
And here’s the best part: It’s absolutely free.
