some stuff i didn't know about the cardinals...
according to wikipedia.com...
Quote:
The Cardinals are the oldest continuous professional American football club in the United States. [1] [2] [3] The team was formed in 1898 as the Morgan Athletic Club in Chicago. The club was then called the Racine Normals since they were originally located on Chicago's Racine Avenue (not Racine, Wisconsin, as mistaken by many). They then changed their name to the Racine Cardinals after they started wearing cardinal-red uniforms.
After becoming a charter member of the NFL in 1920, the club was renamed the Chicago Cardinals. During the lean years of World War II it merged into the Pittsburgh Steelers and became one franchise usually referred to as Card-Pitt. The Cardinals moved to St. Louis, Missouri in 1960 becoming the St. Louis Cardinals. The club then relocated to the Phoenix metropolitan area in 1988, first playing at Sun Devil Stadium in the suburb of Tempe. The team was known as the Phoenix Cardinals before it started using "Arizona" in its name in 1994.
Despite moving to St. Louis and then to Arizona, the Cardinals had always remained in either an Eastern conference or division. When the league was divided into Eastern and Western conferences prior to the 1953 season, the Cardinals were placed in the East while the Chicago Bears were placed in the West. After the 1970 AFL-NFL Merger, the team was placed in the NFC East. The Cardinals were finally moved to the NFC West as part of the 2002 realignment.

IT okay, they are in seperate Conferences
I love the Cards to death, but have always cheered for the Chargers and Steelers...
Cards are #1 by a mile though.

ASFN has you now.
It cannot be stopped.
OWNED!
ps - I'm glad it clarified the Racine thing. People in Wisconsin kept telling me it was Racine, Wisconsin, and I really didn't think that was right.

We lose horribly, there may be enough plays for you to say "these guys are close." Problem is, we are sick and tired of always being close.
Cards and Chiefs will play once every what? 4 years? You can have a favorite and a semi-favorite.
