    Amazed Edge isn't going crazy in the media

    Someone mentioned it before, Edge isn't and never has been a home run hitter. Not at Miami, not in Indy, and not in Arizona. To paraphrase Mr. Green, he is who we thought he was. A durable runner, a hard worker, probably one of the best blocking RB's in the game, a guy who is going to get a...

    OT: Goodell drops the hammer on Patriots

    Sign stealing happens all the time in baseball. (I understand that not all of us are baseball fans.) Should we really get upset about football coaches stealing signs and ignore that it is part of another sport. Or should we just assume that baseball players and managers are smart enough to...

    Who still has their Top 10 Reasons I'm a Cards fan t-shirt?

    I've still got it and I still wear it around the house. Like some others have said, the wife won't let me wear it out anymore because of the holes. I love that shirt.

    Sean Salisbury

    What I understood him to say was that if Green had taken a job at a place like Atlanta with solid ownership, he would have taken a coaching job working for Denny in a second. This was all brought up in the context of Pete Carroll leaving USC and coming to the NFL. Salisbury said his advice to...

    FUN: Cardinals Offense Elimination Game

    Fitz +1 for being one of the sickeningly talented WR's in the game Brown -1 because there is no way that there should still be 4 OL surviving 11 pages in to this thread and Wells seems to have a cult following Matt Leinart: 13 Anquan Boldin: 20 Larry Fitzgerald: 13 Edgerrin James: 13...

    Put me in charge and here's the off season

    I have to question how many of the people pushing for Wisconsin OT Thomas have actually seen him play. In southern IN, we always get our fill of Big10 also-rans early in the morning, with Wisconsin filling the slate almost every week against someone. Sure, he's big, but he's much more of a...

    What would Jack Welch ( GE's retired leader) do?

    Not to go too far off track here, but why Jack Welch? Why not pick a business leader who has left a legacy of success (check GE's performace since he left) and one who doesn't refer to employees as turkeys? We're talking about the guy that promoted a program that is referred to as "rank and...

    Green's CEO mindset.

    If we're making business analogies here, then we have to consider the business question of having "dead wood" that has to be removed. Did you hire dead wood or was it a live tree when it was hired? If dead wood was hired, then the hiring process sucks. Just because he may not have a...

    the start leonard pope thread

    My only problem with Pope is that he tips the play. By the way he stands, I can tell if the play is a run or pass and if he is supposed to block to the right or left on run plays. Granted, the offense was pretty predictable, but I couldn't have been the only one to pick up on his tells...

    Stadium Name??

    Interesting choices there. The Ford family owns the Lions, so easy connection there. The Pepsi Center is also the home of the recent Stanley Cup winning Avalanche. That's like pointing out the United Center in Chicago as the home of the Blackhawks and ignoring that the Bulls play there...

    Edge on Cover of the Sporting News THIS WEEK

    He kind of has a Zoolander look about him. "Blue Steel, Ferrari, Le Tigre...they're the same face. Doesn't anybody else realize this. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills."

    Rohan Davey...

    Wow, talk about covering your bases on this evaluation. Positives: "quick, over-the-top release" Negatives: "must work on lowering his delivery" Positives: "Does a great job avoiding tacklers when rolling out of the pocket" Negatives: "Can step out of the pocket, but is generally...

    OT: sorta... steriods

    Hey, long time, no post. As I am mostly absent from posting on the board, although I read it 4 or 5 times a day, ignore as you wish... I don't get how people can get all indignant now about steroid use when they did and continue to turn their heads in the '70's with the jars of uppers the...

    Cedric Benson-Give him #32 and we have our next Ottis Anderson

    Maybe if we stick #32 on him he becomes our next Michael Pittman (sans the legal issues). Don't get me wrong, I think he's a fantastic back, but this is why I both love and hate the draft. As far as if he loves the game or not, who cares? Read some articles about Curtis Martin of the Jets...

    Henry stuff from the Bills news on nfl.com

    Saw this on NFL.com, wasn't sure if it had been posted here yet. Reading the bolded part below, it seems as if the water is a little muddier than it has appeared lately. Donahoe's claiming the Cards want more while most of the news has been that the Bills want more. Go figure...

    Cardinal Hall of Fame

    How about Jackie Smith? It's kind of interesting to hear guys like Smith and Dierdorf (and others) talk about the Cards organization. A lot of the former St. Louis Cardinals are really disappointed in the Cardinals for not being more embracing of their former stars. It's like they moved to...

    Jim O- Is DT Wendall Bryant taking part in the off-season program?

    Starts what? His own insurance office? A car dealership? I'd be excited for a former Suburban North Conference guy to become a star for the Cards, but he has a long way to go to mend bridges from what it appears.

    Jim Haslett Admits to using Steriods as a Player

    Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but steroids were just as illegal then as they are now. It comes down to a question of enforcement. NFL didn't ban them until the late 80's. MLB didn't ban them until a year or two ago. Somehow the Raiders and Steelers teams of the 70's (just to pick a...

    OT: Anybody have the roster from 1997

    #81 was Frank Sanders and #87 was Johnny McWilliams. Simeon Rice was #97 in 1997 (I believe it was '96 that he started out as #79 then switched to #97). I wouldn't bet on it, but I believe it was Rob Selby who was #66.

    Card fans should hope James goes to Miami

    I'll never get why people want a draft pick over a proven commodity. I can understand being willing to pass on mediocrity for potential greatness, that's a reasonable gamble. But passing on a proven great running back for a potentially great running back just doesn't make sense. At his best...

    Music Industry/Authors Obituary Thread

    That sucks. Chris LeDoux was one of the best country artists ever, it's just that not many people listened to him much. If anyone is interested in listening to his music, check out his "Live" album. Fantastic stuff. His studio work didn't do him justice. As a side note, this is the first...
