Where they are locating the stadium is probably in the number one worst traffic area in the city. There is also a seething racial time bomb here. I used to sell cash registers here and I have ventured into every neighborhood in Atlanta. There used to be a slogan "Atlanta- A city to busy to hate". It is now the city who can't stand to be around African Americans except when they are winning sports for you.

There has always been a real racial divide here. It was just covered up. The real theme here is stick to your own kind.
Northerners hang with northerners
southerners hang with southerners
African Americans hang with African Americans.
