Atlanta is more than the city limits in certain aspects. If the Braves were moving to Birmingham, Orlando, etc., then Atlanta would be losing the Braves, whether it was Cobb, Doraville, etc., Atlanta isn't losing the Braves or the convenience of the Braves. As the Mayor said, those people including hisself will still attend the Braves game. Lord knows if the Braves depended on fans from the city limits, they would've moved years ago, and guess what it wouldn't have been in any metropolitan area of Atlanta.
