Super Bowl XLIV
Super Bowl XLIV was seen by 106 million people, supplanting the final episode of “M*A*S*H” as the most-watched program in the history of television. It’s a heck of a time to have a bad day. And I’m not just talking about creators of those crappy, $2.7 million-a-pop commercials (OK, the “Casual Friday” commercial did get a giggle). While much was made about how cool [...]

Isn't this great? We're previewing a Cardinals' playoff game! Arizona hosts the Atlanta Falcons Saturday at University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale. Not many are giving the Cardinals a chance to win the game. Of course, two consecutive blowout losses to Minnesota and New England kind of took the wind out of the Cardinals' sails. Atlanta comes in with a better record, and [...]

There's a lot to talk about after the Cardinals 35-14 beatdown at the hands of the Minnesota Vikings. None of it is very good. It seems like week after week, the Big Red running game regresses further and further. The Cardinals "racked up" 43 yards on the ground Sunday, and came close to breaking a record for the fewest rushing attempts by a team in [...]

How strange was it for longtime Cardinal fans (dating back to 1988) to see clubhouse attendants putting NFC West Champion t-shirts and caps in the lockers of the players in the waning moments of Arizona's 34-10 win over the St. Louis Rams on Sunday? I don't make this a habit, but I'll answer my own question. It was weird. For the first time since 1975, the [...]

Photo: Tom Mihalek/AP If you're a Cardinal fan, and you were worried about feasting a little too much while preparing to watch your team play on Thanksgiving for the first time since 1985, you're not worried anymore. That's because the Arizona Cardinals played so badly Thursday night in a 48-20 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, you probably upchucked everything you ate before kickoff anyway. The Cardinals sleepwalked through [...]

Cardinals running back Edgerrin James, who was benched 3 weeks ago before the St. Louis game, made news earlier this week, when unhappy about his playing time (or lack thereof), he spouted off about wanting to be released by the team. Many, including myself, wonder about the timing of Edge's proclamation. The Cardinals are 4 games above .500 for the first time in 31 years, and are [...]
