Big news in the Atlanta market today. First, SBN Atlanta became open to the public this morning. Head on over, become a member, and extend your community. We'd love to see our regional site as the best of the SBN Regional Sites. The site is dubbed "The Fair Weather Report".

From the welcome and introduction:

There's an old saying, "it's no fun living in a one-horse town," and if by chance I just made that up, then there should be a saying like that because it applies perfectly to what Atlanta sports fans have dealt with for the past 18 years. Since the two big Atlanta papers merged we've had one voice and one opinion for all of our sports stories ... but not anymore.

SB Nation Atlanta may not report the news, but we certainly have opinions on the news, quite often opinions that help you understand the news better. We can cut through the newspaper headline fluff and give you the guts of the story better than anyone. While this has existed for years here at SB Nation on the local team blogs, we're bringing it all to one place with SB Nation Atlanta.....

And finally, also today this is my last reminder to you all to JOIN THE SBN ATLANTA MEETUP
