    I'm enjoying all this draft-stuff....

    Okay! Last year was brutal BUT, our "reward" is all this speculation, etc. regarding what we're going to do. Seems to me we're in a great spot going forward. Moral of the story....If you're going to stink....really...really...stink. and then you get rewarded. IF you're just semi-stinky you...

    Then, and now....a 180?

    Hope everyone's new year is off to a great start. I've been thinking the past few days about the current state of the Cardinals. It seems only a few short months ago we felt like we were at the bottom of the barrel. Maybe even below that. Fast-forward to today. A new coach has generated some...

    O/T Joe Gibbs--Redskins--started 0-5.

    NOT willing to lay all this on Coach Wilks at this point. Just sayin' that a new coach needs time. ...And Gibbs went on to become one of the all-time best coaches in the NFL. ...And let me add...Don Coryell was 4-9-1 his 1st year with the Cards. The 2nd year they started to make some noise...

    O/T Hey! Cardinal Family..My wife and I just had our book published!!

    It's called "Tiny Heart". There is a 30-second you tube video that you can check out here The book is available on-line through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, E-Bay etc. Dear Mods, I am "sharing" more than "selling" on here because you guys are part of my extended-family and I wanted to share our...

    OT/ IOWA vs. OHIO STATE...

    So, a lady comes into work yesterday proudly wearing an Ohio State Buckeyes jersey. Lots of Buckeye fans here in Charleston. So, I looked at her and said...You're comin' to the nest today." She grinned at me with that look of ....Seriously?!? I said..."Ask Michigan". Wellllll, I wonder if...

    Playing for 1st place vs. the Rams???

    ...And who says there's NO modern-day miracles. Somehow we have managed to win 3 games and find ourselves playing for 1st this Sunday. ...And I'm strangely okay with that all things considered. Mark in SC :)

    B.A. passes Don Coryell w/ a WIN over Dallas??

    Am I right on this? How fitting would it be to become the all-time Cards' winningest coach by beating the Cowboys! Mark in SC :)

    CANCELLING DIRECT TV...IF WE LOSE...

    OH, NO! WE SUCK AGAIN?? ...NOT SO FAST!

    I want to start with this O/T observation, if I may. I have been a St. Louis Cardinals baseball fan for the past 50 years. Over that time I have been treated to many incredibly satisfying moments. To be frank, much more than I've deserved. when compared to the success of other teams. Well, for...

    Kurt Warner's HOF speech...

    Just my opinion...I think a a good speech inspires the people who hear it. ...And...I feel INSPIRED! Mark in SC :)

    I LIKE B.A.

    Had a chance to watch "A Football Life" last night. It was a repeat of the one they did on B.A. Afterwards I came away refreshed having been reminded that I LIKE this coach...this group of players...I can get behind them and pull for them. Sure, winning is GREAT and last year was definitely a...

    It's...the REDSKINS!!!

    Many "wounds" from my old N.F.C. East days...dished out by the Redskins and their fans. I want this one bad... Mark :)

    6 wins to pass Cardinal coaching great Don Coryell...

    ...And 6-2 the 2nd half is probably gonna' be what it takes to get in the play-offs. (9-6-1) NOTE: I believe Coryells' Cards were 42-27-1 if I'm not mistaken. GO CARDS!! Mark :)

    OT/ I'll take Iowa +60 tonight vs. Michigan...

    That's what I told my Michigan friends at work today. UN-BE-LIEVABLE!! Gonna' remember this one for like...FOREVER! Mark :)

    A lil' perspective...

    We stand at 3-4-1. Admittedly, not where we would like to be but certainly in-the-mix-of-things going forward. We are definitely going to have our say in things and I'm okay with that. It wasn't that long ago that we'd have reached this point in the season and beginning talk of "who" we are...

    "Angry" Cardinals...

    I have a feeling we're going to see an "angry" team going forward. ...And football being the emotional game that it is, this may actually be a very good thing. This team BELIEVES it is much better than its' record and what's been seen on the field, so far. I think they'll be playing from this...

    "Changing" Cardinals...

    We all have our "preferences"...Things we like to do and things we think we're good at it. Applying that to our current Cardinals this is what I'm drawing from last night's game. As teams have adjusted to our desire to go deep I think we saw last night a willingness to "change"...In this case a...

    7-9 AND a shot a franchise QB...

    Now, I know we DON'T want this to happen. We want our Super Bowl trophy....especially for Larry. But, if we just couldn't get it done this year, for whatever reasons, would this be a good consolation prize? We're 1-2 with A LOT of football yet to play so let's see how this all plays out. One...

    JARON BROWN...The Venus Fly-Trap!

    Ball comes his way and...SNAP!! I mentioned it a few posts back. Larry "Legend" will, sadly, one day hang up his cleats...BUT, I really believe this guy'll step right-in and make us proud. Get 'er done, SK. Mark :)

    Disappointed, but...STILL confident!

    Yeah, tough one to swallow, no doubt. Especially since we still had a shot at the very end. A few random thoughts... 1./ I was nervous about this game because, well, it's the Patriots. They KNOW how to win no matter how big the challenge is in front of them. I think we're close...very...

    Completely o/t...st. Louis blues

    Uh, yeah, that's a hockey team. LOL ...And yeah, there's probably a better place to post this but you guys are my "sports family", soooooooooo...... Things are eerily similar now for BOTH my Cards in football and Blues in hockey. I've been a committed fan of both teams since 67'. Not...

    Feelin' the "red"...

    I want to share with you a special moment from last night. Right after our "surprise" pick was announced it was like the flood-gates opened to all these positive comments being said about the Cardinals organization (ie; strong locker room; perfect place to go; believe in 2nd chances; tough...

    All things cardinal!

    Some may say...NOTHING new here...let's move on! But, I'm sitting here reflecting on what the Cardinals have become. Having been a fan for 49+ years now (YES! I'm old! LOL) I can only marvel at where the franchise is now. "Free agents" choose US! The media (EVEN ESPN) repeatedly says, keep...

    Darren Fells re-signed...1 year...

    Saw it over on Yahoo sports. REALLY like this signing. I think he is going to become a real "force" going forward. Mark :)

    GREAT season...disappointing end...

    Today is...sobering. The finality of it all. I can't see the value of wallowing in the what if's, etc. so I'll focus on the good. Clearly, there are some very talented players on this team...just as clearly there's the need for a few more. The absence of the "Honey Badger" hurt us...his...
