    Rebuttal to ESPN (Buying Drew's BS)

    Kinda gotta agree with Jagenius. The CBA set up these contracts with the salary portion having no more guarantee than any of us have with our employer. If we do really good we may get raises. If we do something really bad we may get fired. If we get injured and can't work anymore we better...

    One comment on Rosenhaus

    I think Ricky Williams learned that it IS a breach of contract last year. He lost the court battle over his signing bonus (the 'guarenteed' part of the contract) and had to pay a big chunk back to Miami.

    One comment on Rosenhaus

    I have been wondering how many of these holdout situations like this can happen at a time before the issue comes up at the next Collective Bargaining session. Curious to see if one person (Rosenhaus) can actually have an affect on the overall tone of negotiations between the owners and the...

    Cards' Boldin a no-show at minicamp

    Or imagine if you hired a contractor to build a house for you. Half-way through construction he said "I found out the guy building a house down the street paid his contractor more than you're paying me. I'm not going to spend another day working on your house until you triple my pay." There's...

    Why saying Boldin should play out his original contract is crazy

    This whole debate has got to be the biggest non-issue of a dead horse ever beat to death on this board. Quan wants a new contract, DG has said Quan deserves a new contract, the Cards have even offered a new contract. Somehow this leads me to think that maybe just maybe a new deal will get done...

    Rome is Burning

    Athletes like Jim Everret and Curt Schilling? :shrug:

    Not overly concerned about Navarre

    Best part of Navarre's game was the way he handled the blitz in the first quarter or two. Maybe Josh will take some lessons from him about identifying when/where the blitz is coming from and making the hot read. Even though a couple of Navarre's passes were batted down at least he we throwing...

    Crowd is not joshing about anger for Green

    Where the heck does this twisted little escapee from the zoo's monkey house get off calling all us fans "football-starved sheep"!?!? If this guy was any sort of football fan he would remember these players who were cut and demoted played on one of the worst offenses in the NFL last year. Once...

    I'm throwing blows at the next Cards game

    I gotta agree with you. Imagine the cops showing up and you are stone cold sober standing over some guy with a busted up face. The cops look at the blood on your knuckles and ask what happened. You tell them "he threw a plastic dixie cup at me so I broke his jaw". Whoo-hoo free ride in a police...

    Pasta Belly

    Wasn't this the same guy who said the 1st round wide reciever last year was going to file a grievance with the league because the Cards signed their other 1st round pick first? If I remember right he wrote that and three days later the Cards signed Johnson. This guy should maybe write about...

    Locking In For 2006

    Green has been clear about at least one thing. He does not draft based on need. He drafts best player available. Which is good because the team had so many needs going into last years draft they would have needed about 20 rounds to fill all the need positions. If they can get 2 or 3 more...

    Week 7: Which team is #1 in Takeaways?

    Sorry if someone else pointed this out in another thread, but the Cards have 18 takeaways according to nfl.com. That is the most in the league!!! The defense is playing just a teensy little bit harder this year than last year. :cool:

    49ers tape review

    Biggest red flag from this game: The OL grades out as only a B in the tape review and they were up against who? The backups of the backups on the 49ers D-line? Getting beat at all by any of the defensive linemen on the 49ers in that game is not good. Maybe you can debate on how the rest of the...

    Some of you guys really piss me off.

    This is seriously one of the toughest teams in all of pro-sports to cheer for. There will be days like yesterday when fans will get tired of the sick feeling after a loss to a bad team. All these years of losing and the Cards still have their die-hard fans though. They aren't going away...

    Complete collapse

    Interesting... Going to be a long BYE week for the players. But they earned it in the last 8 minutes of that game.

    *sigh* - This Feels Worse Than The Atlanta Loss - *sigh*

    At least we did not expect to beat Atlanta... :(

    We just lost....

    Correction: After this game they will say the 49ers are the SECOND WORST TEAM in football.

    oh how the mighty have fallen

    I dunno about Wilson. But Raynoch Thompson really needs to shut up about his bonus after this game. He should consider himself lucky to have a job.

    Caption this!

    These new Cards make ya sick, Coach Haslett? They're doing that to everyone they play this year. I hear their new D coordinator has cajones THIS big.

    SI power rankings....

    Some writer actually acknowledges the Cards did some way some how manage to do something right??! :eek: What is the world coming too?

    Green should swallow pride and accept part of the blame

    So why not write about the defense shutting down Vick? Hmmmm? So much easier to bash Green than learn how to spell the D-coordinator's last name I suppose. Being as its a sports editorialist in Phoenix I really doubt they even know what the guy's name is. I rate this column 3 lost lunches on...

    Dont jump off that bridge just yet

    I agree with you too. The best news from yesterday was Coach Green's attitude. This team put up 12 pts and only lost by 11 to a well rested and prepared Superbowl team. Much better than getting shut out and losing by a bazillion points to Seattle. But at the end of the day the new coach is...

    Green blaming everyone but himself

    Its nice to see a reporter who does not let the facts (like Shelton's back problems) get in the way of a good rant. Its also good to see him calling Dennis Green to task for dismantling one of the most effective O-Lines from the last 2 seasons and destroying such a high powered offense as the...

    Am I wrong about our defense?

    This should be a big difference this year. Basically this is just hoping something good happens in the 4th quarter. Maybe the other team makes a mistake, or maybe they are not in as good physical condition so they will wear out. A team with as little depth as the Cardinals to rotate effective...
