If there's one phrase that sums up this Great American Experiment more than any other, it's the one that was quill-penned at the very moment our nation exited Great Britain's birth canal.

And when that consent has not been given, it's every American's duty to themselves and to their fellow citizens to become ungovernable.

Ebiketie is listed as one of the starting outside linebackers on the Falcons' official depth chart, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports. Atlanta made a splash late in training camp by signing Justin Simmons and trading for Matthew Judon. Both newcomers are listed as backups on the depth chart, but that's expected to change once they get acclimated to the Falcons' system.
