The Hall of Fame Myth
I have to tread carefully here, as icons level of sacredness is dangerous to challenge.  Clearly there are great players on the field today who will head to the Hall of Fame.  The concept I seek to challenge is the quick Hall of Fame labels that get attached to players without […]

Each of us has our way of coping with a few disappointments. Throw things at the television. Jump up and down on your Cardinals Baseball cap. Present a finger to a police officer at an inappropriate time.
I don’t recommend the latter.

1. Saw and listened to the whole thing. Looks like Bryant motor-mouth Gumbel has been fired. Much better.
2. Seeing Cutler play again, I’m convinced he will develop into something special, even though he threw four terrible sure picks straight into Texans’ dbs hands, two of them in the end zone, only to be saved by […]

I have long believed that most fans get misconceptions from listening to commentators on football both in games and studio shows. Most of these “reporters” fall into two groups; ex-players and coaches who too often know little of the history of the game or professional voices who sound (and on TV, look) good but […]

Amazingly the Cardinals had the ball–down 17-10–and very much still in the game with 2:47 left, despite the fact that the Cardinal defense spent 43:07 agonizing minutes on the field, trying to thwart a persistent Bucs offense that ran and passed its way for 350 yards. Unfortunately, QB Kurt Warner threw an errant deep sideline […]

An old song asks, “Where is the good in good-bye?” For the Arizona Cardinals, it would be hard to imagine a better good bye than this weekend. Also, for the first time in many years, the bye week is not causing Cardinal fans to turn their attention to the draft.
The Cards are 3-4; […]

You can attribute it to whatever you want. Luck, the Almighty, whatever. But the fact that the Arizona Cardinals are on a bye this week came at a most important time for the San Diego Chargers.
Because of wild fires in San Diego County, something like half the team have been evacuated from their homes, which […]

In a game that epitomized the notion that teams lose when they turn the ball over, commit costly penalties and suffer special teams lapses, the Arizona Cardinals rallied from a 21-6 deficit, to line up for a potentially game-winning 55 yard field goal with 7 seconds left…alas, Neil Racker’s boom of a kick sailed left […]

After the Arizona Cardinals lost to the Baltimore Ravens a few weeks ago, I stated that sometimes there are moral victories no matter what people say. From that loss, you could see confidence grow in the team which resulted in a win over the Pittsburgh Steelers the following Sunday.
Well, one moral victory a season is […]
