"Atlanta teams" might include everyone in the Metro, but everyone inside the city limits generally has a worse time getting in and out of the Metro. A team in Suwanee or nearby has a commutable 40 minute travel to Riverside. When coming from the city, there's a decent chance that your hour quickly turns into an hour and a half.

Regardless, I agree with you. Anyone who isn't near or on I-85 in the North Suburbs is probably not going to commute on Sunday morning.

Frankly, any event (or two) in North Suburbs or in the city would suffice as a local event for all "Atlanta teams".
