Is anyone else tiring of MJ???

I don't believe you need to paint a rosey picture all the time but the guy is just non stop negative.....I can understand him being upset, you know swinging on Coach Mac's jock like he did all the time, but seriously, give it a rest MJ!

Can anyone remember the last time he provided any real "insider" info? Me either.

Think it's time to move on MJ.

Jurecki needs to check himself. Seems to me he should be bumped as a sideline reporter. The Cardinals broadcasts usually include people that can be at least partial homers.

Plus, any day now he will flat out say that the Cardinals should have kept the previous staff. He is already intimating that he feels that way.

MJ said that the Cards didn't bring DG in to go 4-12...Mac and Co. could have done that..he also said that the Cards as they were after the draft weren't that far off from being competitive...and that DG has taken this team 2 steps backwards...Lewis didn't seem to mind the moves saying that Parcells did the same thing turning the Pats around...

:thumbup:


I am tired of his crap too. I said a few weeks ago I called his show and basically called him on it after the first preseason game, and of course he denied it and had to get the last word in after they hung up on me. I am tired of his negativety. He is upset that DG is not his buddy.

When did he ever say that? I have always heard him say he understood and agreed with firing McGinnis. :shrug:




Personally I want the "Cardinals Insider" to give his real opinion and not sugar coat things. The team already employs cheerleaders.

That was just my take on his babbling on and on about his dislike of Green's methods.

He has never come out and said he dislikes Green, but he has been super critical in his reports of Green, while with McGinnis he pretty much agreed and supported every move the guy ever made. If Coac Mac farted, Jurecki was right there to say it smelled like roses......

Feel like I have had way too much sugar this morning. Jurecki can say what he wants. I can turn off the radio if I don't want to listen to him. At least he talks about the Cardinals.

Didn't we all get this info about failed physicals from MJ?

MJ is opinonated and surely not completely objective but I still appreciate the info and discussion of the Cardinals.


Now when it comes to basketball he is an idiot. :)

Cards Continue with Roster Moves

The Arizona Cardinals announced Wednesday that the team has signed defensive tackle John Nix to the 53-man roster and also has added tight end Bobby Blizzard and offensive tackle Jim Newton to the practice squad.

Nix (6-1, 313) was originally drafted by Dallas in the seventh round of the 2001 draft (240th selection). Appearing in 30 games for the Cowboys during the 2001-2002 seasons, Nix recorded 43 tackles (25 solo) and three forced fumbles. Waived by Dallas during the 2003 preseason, Nix was claimed and waived five days later by the San Francisco 49ers. He signed with the Cleveland Browns on December 23, 2003 and was allocated to the Amsterdam Admirals of NFL Europe. In Amsterdam Nix posted 21 tackles and two sacks. He was released by Cleveland on September 5 on the cutdown to 53.

The 6-4, 272-pound Blizzard was signed by Pittsburgh this past spring as an undrafted rookie free agent out of North Carolina. The Hampton, VA native originally started his collegiate career at Kentucky, appearing in 21 games with 30 pass receptions for 275 yards. During his two-year stay in Chapel Hill, Blizzard added 48 receptions for 600 yards and six touchdowns in 20 contests. He was released by the Steelers on August 29.

Newton (6-9, 297) was originally signed as an undrafted free agent by Indianapolis on May 5, 2003. Moving between the active roster and practice squad throughout the 2003 season, Newton saw action in three games primarily on special teams. He was released by the Colts on August 25.

In addition defensive tackle Eddie Freeman and cornerback Derek Ross, both claimed off waivers on Monday, did not pass their physicals and will not be joining the team.

Nix will wear jersey number 64 while recently acquired tackle Jeremy Bridges has been assigned #73.

That is what I decided as well. He will probably change his tone if Green can get this team turned around.

DT John Nix looks like another one of Clancy Prendergast's boys.

He spent 2001 & 2002 with the Cowboys, but it doesn't look like he got much game time. NFL.com says he was with the Browns last year, but it doesn't look like he was active for any games.


14 career solo tackles with 3 forced fumbles is a nice ratio though....

Go Cards!!!

Jurecki is up in arms about these two guys. Denny cut VETERANS to make room on the roster for two guys that can't even pass a physical?

Such outrage from Jurecki about the 52nd and 53rd roster spots ...

Get a clue Jurecki.

Kendall is gone. No matter how much crying you do, he's not coming back. Spend a little time on the 40 or so players on our roster that will actually PLAY on Sunday's.

you know for Prendergast to be picking up guys he sat on the bench in dallas he must not think much of our guys.

Basically saying the bench on dallas is better than our starters. Could it be true?

See that is EXACTLY his problem, he nitpicks on crap that really isn't a huge difference maker. If anything, being at the home games last year he had to realize that the team could be a very competitive team in this league but the ATTITUDE was just poor....Green comes in and is doing what he can to change that but MJ just can't see it.......or doesn't want to.

Or say his old bench is better then our current bench? Doesnt have to be a reflection on our starters, it could but it doesnt have to.
