So, I went to an Irish pub tonight to do my due diligence, as you would expect me to do.
It so happens Michael was there also celebrating St Paddy's day. I approached him and had perhaps a five minute conversation with him.
I have to say, the man could not have been nicer or more gracious.
I walked away so impressed by the man I can't even begin to tell you.
It just goes to show, you never know who you may run into while celebrating the Irish.

Hes a really cool guy..I met him at Sun Devil Stadium awhile back(I think roughly when he become more in control)Im not tring to brag or nothing but at SDS I knew alot of people when I use to dance and do my thing in Endzone.So were sitting there and he comes in the stands,and gives me his card and ask for my phone number.No Lie calls me two days later and asks me too come to the training facility and he has a surprise for me..Short story sorry he gave a Jacket a hat and tee shirt.And said thanks for being a loyal fan..That was the coolest thing that any ceo or president has done for me..Hes a awesome guy..I really think hes wants the cardinals to succeed..

Shook his hand during warmups at the home game vs. Seattle last season. Very nice guy, and very very appreciative of his fans.

Keep in mind that the team has changed since they got a real NFL stadium. So when people deride the loooooooooong futility of the team, they conveniently neglect to point out that they have only been playing on a level playing field for about five years. It is nice to know that the Prez. is a nice guy.JMO.

Is it true what Profootballtalk.com is saying about the Cardinals not paying Super Bowl bonuses to the coaches that left?

I met Michael in 2002 at the Cards-Hawks game, the first in their new stadium. He was very nice and asked alot of questions about me and how I became a fan. After talking to him, (and he found out I came from Dallas) he sent down the team photographer and I got to watch the whole game on the Cards sidelines while helping the photographer. It was a once in a lifetime experience, I never will forget that day.

If Nidan were there, you probably would have spilled your beer on Mr. b's shoes. And he would have been cool with it.

/speaking from experience


Mr. b (not Mr. B, though he is a nice guy) is a really engaging guy and cares about the fans and this team. I have a lot of respect for him.

Huh? I'm the one who gets blamed for it when it was Nidan who knocked the beer out of my hand in his haste to shake Michael's hand. But N will never admit that. His hand was like a freaking jack in the box...yet I looked like the goof.

Do you mean to tell me that YOU are also getting blamed for it too? Nidan is spinning one hell of a wicked web, here.

Ya, I was right next to Michael B when this occured and when it happened everyone looked at me like I was the culprit.. But you did say it wasnt me, after a few seconds, which felt like 15 minutes...
