D. Led's daily rant: Falcons should not play Vic Beasley vs. Dolphins

Here's my daily rant:

The Falcons should not play Vic Beasley, who said he's not 100 percent coming of a PULLED hamstring , against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday. How many times, over decades, have we seen a player come back too fast from a hamstring only to pop it and be lost for an extended period of time.

That is all... carry on.
