Matty Ryan: Staying Frosty

Ice Ice Baby. Ice Ice Baby. All right stop, collaborate and listen. Ice is back with a brand new invention. -Vanilla Ice

Public Service Announcement:  Ok, here we go! Like my main Sgt. Brad Colbert always says, “Stay frosty.”  Matt Ryan been staying frosty.  Matty Ice.  Mr. Frosty.  Cool as a cucumber.  Never gets nervous. Never Nervous Pervis.  You know I’ve always loved this kid.  Loved him back at Boston College.  Loved him for what he did one Thursday night in Blacksburg, Virginia.  One Thursday night in Blacksburg, Virginia in the mud and the slop.  For  Boston, for Boston, thy glory is our own.  For Boston, for Boston, ’tis here that truth is known.”  Truth is, Matt Ryan is taking that glory with him all the way down to hot ‘Lanta.     

Michael Vick who?  Chris Chandler who?  Heck, Steve Bartkowski who?  There’s a new sheriff in town and his name ain’t Reggie Hammond.  Who woulda thunk?  Who woulda thunk this kid would have had such an impact?

• Last season Matty Ice was AP Offensive Rookie of the Year. 
• Last season Matty Ice was named Rookie of the Year by Sporting News. 
• He won the ESPY for Best Breakthrough Athlete. 
• He threw for the most completions in a game by a rookie in the playoffs. 
• He was the first rookie quarterback in NFL history to start all 16 regular season games and make the playoffs. 

Matt Ryan is leading these new look Falcons into a new era.  Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Atlanta Falcons.  A generation of Falcons that have folks picking them to reperesent the NFC in the Super Bowl.  How about that?  Now that’s a prospect that just one year ago was inconceivable.  Inconceivable!  You keep using that word.  I do not think it means what you think it means.  I know what it means.  So does Matt Ryan.  So do the Atlanta Falcons.

Public Spectacle:

Peace out homies.  Six two and Even!
