Just because it's common, it's still technically wrong to skip the comma.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Java, I went to the Cronkite School of Journalism at ASU, and for Uncle Walter, it was more than a brand. He met the students several times while I was in school there and once it was my pleasure...coolest person to ever tell me to speak up. I also got to ask Bill Moyers an incredibly stupid question the following year. But he was cool about it.

Now the word comma is losing all meaning or is at least starting to look really weird.
Do I need the bottom text at all? though I think it balances it out?

I think it would look just as good without the bottom text.
That said, something like Falcon Pride! would skirt the grammar conundrum.

Maybe go entirely punctuationless?
Oh hey, think of it as going Falcon, not a command to the Falcons to go, then it doesn't need a comma. Go crazy, go condo, go Falcons!

Enh.
I've decided to leave it as Go Falcons! But now I do sort of want to make it like Forrest Gump (Go, Falcons, Go!) but I will avoid it.
Without the text looked wrong. Oh well.
I'm going to go eat a bowl of Rainier cherries (on sale for cheaper than usual) since they are one true cherry.

OK, I've got my dvr set for my week out of town. Now I just have to get started with cleaning my apartment, and it's already almost midnight. I hate it when I procrastinate like this.
As it is, the dusting will remain undone.
