Last weekend, a story broke about “Real Housewives of Atlanta’s” resident diva NeNe Leakes (pictured) being practically destitute. The report claimed that while Leakes was dining at a siddity Atlanta eaterie, her meal was interrupted by her Bentley being repossessed. On Tuesday night, Leakes dispelled the rumors, according to Reality Tea. SEE ALSO: Warren Sapp Asks To Reduce Child Support Payment Leakes, whose reality TV career has led to her co-starring roles on network TV shows as “Glee” and “The New Normal,” let Twitterverse have it as she tried to set the record straight about the alleged repossession: NeNe Leakes ‏@NeNeLeakes U can’t just b doin well! Everybody wanna pull u down! So like our people! I work & work hard. Never owned a Bentley & never drove 1 Leakes, who in the past has been accused of being not only a pompous self-promoter but of being a social-climber, has publicly stated that she is “very rich” and had “Donald Trump checks.” The latter reference had to do with her appearance on the popular “The Apprentice,” which is co-produced by Trump. The 44-year-old statuesque celeb even hawked some blinged out tees that read, “I’m Very Rick B*ch!” for $150 a pop. Should you hate? Still, a source who is reportedly part of Leakes’ camp insisted that Leakes is in fact knocking on poverty’s door, saying, “NeNe is fronting, she’s living way beyond her means. NeNe spends $17K a month, and her home is about to go into foreclosure. She lost her Bentley and she’s about to lose her home too.” Is Leakes’ success just hateration for those folks around her? The in-your-face, keeps-it-real diva lamented to her nearly 1 million Twitter followers that her success is a hard pill for many to take: NeNe Leakes ‏@NeNeLeakes Still n the same house, still drive the same car, Still work on 3 shows!…..it’s hard 4 people 2 b happy 4 ur SUCCESS Hang in there, NeNe, it’ll all be a’ight!

We've known for a while that any new stadium for the Atlanta Falcons is probably not going to be financed primarily by the team. That's just not the way these things work. Instead, a big chunk of the cost will fall on the fans. Ticket prices will probably rise. Personal seat licenses will wind up costing fans a considerable chunk of change. Maybe that hot dog costs a little bit more than it used to. That'll happen when the city is fronting $300 million and the team is on the hook for $698 million. It's naive to think that prices won't rise, because you are talking about something that isn't even pocket change for a billionaire owner. The price of going to a game is probably going up. Now, could the Falcons choose to absorb that cost entirely? They could, and it would be noble enough to win headlines across the nation for a couple of weeks. But we don't live in a world where that kind of largesse makes economic sense to owners of NFL teams. We just don't. So brace yourselves. At the risk of opening of the floodgates, your thoughts on this?
