    Fan Fest

    Good point. My main complaint is that they do not have a separate kids autograph event where the players sign autographs at tables and kids wait their turn in line, etc., like they did last year at the Fan Fest in June (and like they have pretty much every year except this year). I saw that...

    Fan Fest

    It looks like they are cutting corners this year. Last year they had a real Fan Fest in June and a scrimmage in training camp. It looks like they are just having a practice, and then the players will walk to the side of the field to sign autographs afterward (hoping I am wrong, but that is...

    Seriously... What are the odds?

    Hi Mulli: I do not have a number off-hand, but I will try to look into it. I know at a minimum that we would need to lose out and Carolina would need to win out. Then we would need to make sure that we won the tie-breaker with Carolina, and that we catch the other teams that are also in the...

    Seriously... What are the odds?

    Being a math major back in college, I thought I would help calculate a “ballpark” probability that the Cardinals make the playoffs. There are 9 events that need to happen, as set forth below: 1. Cardinals beat Carolina: Probability: 1/2(approx.) 2. Cardinals beat Dallas: Probability: 1/2...
