I am not sure I have the heart to show up for the Pittsburgh game...

[splitsecond]

I can see it already... a stadium full of ignorant transplants and bandwagoners hootin and hollering. A Cardinal team that stops putting in effort in the second half after they lose the stadium... a running game that can't get anywhere against the Steelers D-line and a passing game still lacking in creativity.

I just don't know if I can do it.

 

[az jam]

People will now start dumping and selling their game tickets to opposing team fans. When the home team sucks and plays crappy football this is what happens here in Arizona. Forget the home field advantage.

 

[RugbyMuffin]

Oh you gotta go!

I am going to the game in Philly!

Guaranteed that is the game "Philly gets back on track!"

Still going, and actually can't wait !

I kind of feel like you were one of those bandwagon fans for posting a thread like this. I can care less what anyone else says, this is coming from a guy that has Steelers fan as a Dad. Cheer for them no matter what.

Yeah, you cheer for them no matter what, but does that mean he has to pay good money to go to the stadium for a crappy product, and be yelled at by Steelers fans in the process? I understand the OP's frustration.

And this is from another guy whose Dad is a Steelers fan.

He is saying does he have the heart to show up, meaning he already has the tickets. They always say love me when I'm up, or love me when I'm down but no matter what just love me. It goes something like that. But I get heckler on both sides of my family. My wife's family is nothing but Cowboy fans.

if the team shows no love back, why do they deserve yours? that's the question that's creeping into my head more and more these days.

If you already have the tickets, you should go. There will still be 2/3 Cardinals fans there, and the team plays tough at home, so they could put up a fight--at least for a while. Even if Whis's record coming off bye weeks is regrettable, I enjoy the fan experience at UofP.

Also, there are so few fans there in the fourth quarter that I'd like to think that Levi Brown can hear me when I tell him how much he sucks.

Whoa....you are going to the game in Philly!!!?!

I went there on Thanksgiving Day....yes Thanksgiving wearing my Cards gear.

Expect the following....

everyone and I mean everyone will be chanting " *** Hole, *** " Hole!!! (repeated non stop) - even the young kids will

Once you make it in the stadium the chants now become louder and some drunk fans will spit it as they say it in your face....their is NO personal space...you can try to be nice...it won't stop em'..if you think there will be just one....you are so wrong....and it won't stop for the ladies either....they didn't stop on my wife either...it was ruthless...disgusting is more of the word.

At your seat expect them to put their hands ON YOU as they yell in your ear....go tell security....they'll do NOTHING!!!

Advice ---

Take a basic black shirt or other shirt and wear it under your Cardinals gear....if it gets too bad take it off and request the head of security to move your seat due to unsafe environment. We wore our gear, but we had 8 other Eagle family members with us...but it didn't stop the mob.

2) Don't ever go to the concorse or restroom alone!!! We had one huge guy grab me by the shoulders of my jersey and started shoving me saying in drunk talk "You are going in the womans restroom." Note that I'm a grown adult...but there was NOTHING I could do to stop him. It took my family members plus a few others to get him to stop.....throw a punch and the mob will not wait one second to attack you.

Their security is NOT there to help you....they will turn the other way.

Expect violence......sorry but that's the crowd.

I will never go to that stadium again.....NEVER! I wouldn't advise anyone to go there.

My season tickets are paid off. My seats either have me and my brother in them or they are empty. I don't see a problem with that.

 

[splitsecond]

Ha...ha... you know you will be there.

well, yes most likely. but let me have my moment on the dark side!

On the other hand, it is too hard to pass up the opportunity to show off all of my rape signs I have been considering since last season.

Bah,

Par for the course.

I go to Flyers games in full Penguins gear all the time. No worse nor better than Eagles fans.

For some reason they don't screw with me. That and I don't instigate them back.

It will be hard to justify spending money on Sunday ticket anymore if we're back to being the Washington Generals for the forseeable future.

i know Ouchie's stoked he purchased it for this season and last season.

How is that. This team put a 100% into trying to win. It's just unfortunate we got the short end of the stick. People act like we being getting beat by a average of 20 ppg. Why do you support this team if you don't think they aren't giving there best efforts.

 

[thephoenixson28]

**** I don't either. But it the reason why he doesn't want to go.If he said that he was just to lazy to go. We wouldn't be having this conversation.

that's the question i keep asking myself. and my comments aren't about the players... because they players as a whole suck. This is a really talentless bunch... much like last season was and much like last season, they're probably giving it their all, but their all doesn't amount to much. my comments boil down to what they always boil down to... management and they're indifference to being a laughinstock... and once they weren't a laughingstock, systematically dismantling a team because the players who took them out of the dumper deserved contracts we weren't willing to shell out.

 

[thephoenixson28]

With this new CBA your comment is irrelevant. They have to spend money. So if anything, the only person I do agree with firing is Graves.

oh really? they sat on the ability to spend another 9 million on this team this season and if there's a way to hamstring themselves to spend as little money as possible, they'll do so. they always have, they always will.

the idea that Graves or Wiz should stick around at this point is laughable but I fear both will because a) Wiz has another two years on his deal and b) because Graves has pictures of Bow Tie in Nazi gear stealing candy from babies.

whatever the minimum amount the Cardinals need to spend, they'll do and until proven otherwise, it's just the way it is unfortunately.

They signed Fitz,Wilson,Dockett,Kolb to Big deals. Evaluating talent or getting talent falls on graves.Whisenhunt only can coach whatever they give him. Spending isn't the problem,evaluating talent for what people are worth is the problem. Before the season people were actually thinking that graves did something l. All I say is support your team.

when they show a reason to support them I will. when they systematically dismantle a two time playoff team and horde money, I won't. unfortunately, i think our season's all but over which means this is a big off-season for this club as far as my fandom. if they keep graves and wiz and we're as bad as i fear we'll be, they might have run me off for good. again, not that anyone cares if i'll be gone. just stating how i feel.

This team is like a big disgusting wart. You can cover it up and try to forget about it. You can just not look at it and hope it goes away. You can even try to burn it off. But try as you might, it always comes back and it will forever haunt you.
