Cardinals are underrated...

I saw them play the Giants at the Meadowlands a few weeks ago, fully expecting the G-men to make short work of them.  But it was the other way around...and shouldn't have been surprising, considering the Cards are the defending NFC Champs...

Glad to see the Cardinals give the Vikings a good pounding and know Favre off his high horse.

Go Cards.

The Cardinals are really beginning to put it together.  It's nice to see, because they were in the dumps for so long.

Whisenhunt deserves a lot of the credit. And the fact that the NFC West is a weak division means they should make the playoffs again.However, the Bidwells are still pathetic owners. Many players are unhappy with their contracts and can't wait to leave (Boldin Dockett). If you remember, Warner had to go talk to the 49'ers last year, before the Bidwells forked over the $.

I happen to know that Sr. and his wife both drive mathing VW Bugs.  Nothing wrong with being fugal but NOT in business.  

It is known in the industry that you come to Phoenix to retire....not start or continue your career.  Even though lately there have been exceptions to that...thankfully.

They were cheapskates before moving the Cardinals to Arizona.  They wanted the City of St. Louis to give them a new stadium without any contributions from them.  The city said no way, so they took their team and went to Phoenix.

linebackers, E.J. Henderson, broke his leg and is out for the season.


Yes, historically the Bidwells (and for that matter the Browns...The Cincinnati owners not the Cleveland franchise) have been frugal. They have not put money back into the team (i.e into scouting, player facitilities, etc.) choosing instead to maintain for their own coffers. From a business standpoint, all NFL teams are profitable, but those that choose to put money back into their teams tend to find more long term success.

However, now that Bidwell's son is more involved, things are improving. Players actually consider going to Phoenix as free agents more than they ever did in the past. It will never reach the level of the Cowboys or Redskins, but its a marked improvement over years past.

he's got!  Fitzgerald, Boldin, Breaston - can you imagine what Manning, Brady and Brees would do with these guys?

Are you glad the Cardinals won, or are you just glad the Vikings lost!  If you are a true Vikings hater, this video should bring you great joy.
