What a comeback….

Cardinals 31, Seahawks 20
After a horrid start and a slue of booing by the hometown crowd, the Cardinals managed to pull out a win to keep them atop the NFC West.  My ex-husband has Cardinals’ season tickets and said he’s received his postseason invoice for playoff tickets already…kind of premature, don’t ya think?!
Anyway, Warner, Fitz, [...]

Cardinals 27, Seahawks 3
Wow, after Matt Hasselbeck’s fabulous game last week, I was surprised that he and the Seahawks didn’t put up much of a fight against the Cardinals.  Not only was the offense on fire as usual but the defense stepped it up a notch or two as well.  Perhaps the biggest statistic was [...]

Cardinals 10, Colts 31
What happened to the defending NFC Champs last night?  The Colts were without several defensive starters yet the Cardinals were unable to capitalize on anything and were, quite simply, atrocious.
I know Kurt Warner (30/52, 1 TD, 2 INTs) is nursing a sore shoulder but he has been all season and looked great last [...]

What Happened?

Arizona 16, San Francisco 20
OK, I know that Steve Breaston, Kurt Warner, and Anquan Boldin were not 100% but, come on, this was the 49ers.  Apparently, Mike Singletary was able to whip that team into shape in the offseason.  San Fran looked scary good (or did the Cardinals’ defense just not look up to snuff?!)  Also, [...]

Well, I have to say I’m certainly not disappointed with either of my fantasy teams this season (unlike last season where I went through as many RBs as did Denver.)
Of the Cardinals I was lucky enough to pick up:
Team 1:
Kurt Warner, Steve Breaston, Karlos Dansby, Dominque Rodgers-Cromartie
Team 2:
Anquan Boldin, Tim Hightower, Neil Rackers, Cardinals DST
Here’s [...]

Cardinals @ Steelers, Preseason week 1

Cardinals 10, Steelers 20
According to my friend Phillip on Facebook (who is a sports writer for the Colts), preseason is like root canal.  So true.  This game was so similar to the Super Bowl in horrible officiating.  I really hope that this isn’t an indication of how the rest of the season will be.
QB-wise for [...]

With training camp commencing in Flagstaff this week, the Cardinals kick off the festivities with a pep rally on Saturday, August 1st from 6-10 pm at Heritage Square in downtown Flagstaff.
Kurt Warner is raring to go despite a sore hip from offseason surgery.  The 38-year old QB says he’s not where he wants to be yet but [...]

The Cardinals are winners to all of their fans, Pittsburgh continues to play dirty, and the referees blow a critical game again…

Pittsburgh 27, Arizona 23
Again, horrible officiating determines the outcome of an important game.  Arizona played beyond well-enough to win the game on both sides of the ball, yet the game goes to Pittsburgh because why would anyone want the Cardinals to beat the mighty Squealers, err Steelers?!
Kurt Warner had another spectacular outing, 31/43, 377 yds, [...]

Cardinals get the SI hat trick

For the 3rd week in the row, a Cardinal graces the cover of Sports Illustrated.  This week, Kurt Warner with the caption “NFC Champs Flying High: The Cardinals soar out of the west to challenge the Steelers.” What was surprising about this issue, at least to me, is that, on p. 35, Jim Trotter picks [...]

Cardinals 34, Seahawks 21
The Cardinals had an impressive showing against Seattle this afternoon; but will it be enough to beat the hot Atlanta Falcons next week in the first round of the divisional playoffs?
Kurt Warner tossed 4 TDs, 2 of them to Larry Fitzgerald, one to Jerheme Urban and one to Steve Breaston who, along [...]
