AHA has nothing to do with it.

And, yes, Sembler is drawing a bead on the GM Plant site in Doraville … for a new home for the Altanta Falcons! A link to the AJC article and my 2 cents can be found at:

When I first tell people about this they gasp, “What?! They already have the amazing Georgia Dome!” I agree but apparently 15 years old is too old for the NFL to be impressed.

And here I was … naively advocating for DeKalb County to carve out a part of the GM site for educational facilities for DeKalb Schools – hrumph! Where’s the fast money in that? Doraville, or is it Dollarville?
