If it moves back to Flagstaff, then I'll get excited. As for Glendale, I'll be out there for the Cincy preseason game with my wife and son. That is enough heat for one summer. Training camp in the heat just doesn't appeal to me enough to make a trip

I think they save more by having it here plus make more from having it here. win win for them. More fans can attend as well.

More people got to go. More kids got taken there by their parents. Flagstaff is awesome and the experience is much better but the Cardinals are only doing a favor for the fans that can afford it by being in Flag. Give the fan base as much access to the team as possible and the base will grow.

I do agree that Flagstaff is nicer. Hell, I probably won't even go out to training camp in Glendale. Tried a couple of times last year but no comparison to Flag.

Im with earth. Its not Just about the $. its about more fans seeing it, more kids seeing it, more exposure, easier for players, easier for fans.

I love flagstaff and even more so, the rim above payson. I'll go camping and get my fix.

Ive went to training camp in flag before, it was fun. It was also fun last year going to the stadium.

My son had never been to the stadium before, he was blown away. Hes been to the woods a million times.

There are pros and cons but the glendale training camp is here to stay and with more fans coming to it, they have no reason to move it back.

I miss PanterA but they are gone. Time to accept it for what it is and move on.

Looks like there no more 2 a day practices.

Only a morning walk through.

When did this change? Or did I just miss something?
