Thank U Skorp

I'm a Cardinal fan in Texas, this site makes up 90% of my Cardinal info. I greatly appreciate what this site does and I rather like what Graves has done and I'm fully behind Coach Mac.

Great article Skkoorp.

Big Red Jane said awhile back that there's been some bad karma around lately, and I would agree.Your comments lead me to believe that maybe that may now be changing.

Thanks Jim. Thanks, first for providing us this forum. I enjoy it here each and every day. Thanks, second, for the look into the minicamp. I am appreciative of this opportunity to get the inside scoop. Keep up the great work.

A report, if possible, on the QBs would be appreciated.

Skkorp----I hope you don't mind. I posted your article on the Cardinals message board (giving you full credit). I wish the Tribune or Republic would publish this article also. It's so seldom the Cards receive credit for anything. I really appreciate this web-site and all your efforts to help us true fans. Thanks to the information I've gleaned from this web-site, I am a more knowledgeable fan and am looking forward to this coming season more so than at any other of the 42 years I have been a fan of this team.

Thanks guys. Running this web site is a blast and I wanted you people to know that the Cards do care about reaching their fans. They care a great deal.

And my apologies for not covering Saturday aftternoon's closed session. I just couldn't make it but Jo did cover the Sunday session.

Cubbie, I'm sorry, I wasn't watching the QBs much, focusing much more on our new receivers.

A pat on the back and a nipple tweak!

It's pretty refreshing that Rod and Mac Thanked you and us for the support. I wonder:

Hey Jim O: Do you have to prepare reports of the site traffic and commentary? LOL...

Anyway that's good stuff!!!!

One of the reasons a site like this is so important is that, without it, fans have only (a) the spin the team wants to get out to the fans, (b) the (often wrong or biased) take on the team provided by the local media and (c) snippets of faulty info provided from a distance by the national media.

Much of the fun you get following your favorite team takes place when you hobnob with your fellow fans at the local sweet shop where you get your coffee in the morning, around the watercooler at work, after-hours over a cold one, tailgating before the game or sitting in the stands with your fellow Cardinal rooters (along with a few representatives of "the enemy").

Those are the only places where you get a real sense of the agony and frustration when we lose and the exhileration of when we win.

Until this and (ahem!) similar such fans sites came into being, this sense of seeing things from a Cardinal fans' eye-view was missing from both the local scene and, of course, Cardinal fans dispersed throughout the diaspora.

You can see the difference between the intensity and football knowledge of Cardinal rooters today and those wonderful early years when a typical question on one of Buddy's call in shows might be: "So how do you think we're gonna do this year, Coach?"

Never forget when DBaker successfully organized - via the Internet - a movement to fill SDS with Cardinal Red instead of Felon Blue at the game where we upset those turkeys (with Butthead hitting the game-winning bank-shot off the goal post).

Fans help create winners (& that's the name of THAT tune)!
