ugh i hate jordan sparks.

Jordin sings an awesome anthem. Next time I'm sure they will call Kody to check on approval, especially when their first choice is an American Idol winner and Cards fan from Glendale.

That was your GF long before you ever met her( I assume) and years ago. Why would you hold that against her now?

 

[hippiecardsfan]

I'm just happy that we've got a true Cards fan to start the game in that way. Can't ask for more than that!

 

[football karma]

Collective Soul -- a little dated, but I like them

Dosage is a pretty good album

 

[82CardsGrad]

ugh i hate jordan sparks.

Never heard someone say that before... She sings one of the best anthems you'll ever hear! I am totally psyched that she is gonna crank this thing up!!!!

 

[DemsMyBoys]

Local girl! That deserves a "Whoop-Dee-Doo!"

 

[Lloydian]

After the national anthem was performed at the Atlanta game, I turned to my dad and said, "At least they didn't bring Collective Soul in to do this." I explained that they were from Atlanta and had no business coming to the game. I'm fine with them being here this week though.

Gotta agree 100% with the National Anthem from Sparks... not a huge "Idol" fan, but her version of the NA and the fact that she is a TRUE AZ Cards Fan... Perfect way to kick this off...

ugh i hate jordan sparks.

DITTO!

 

[TheHopToad]

Do they have an extended halftime for the Conference Title games? I don't remember than from years past. I thought only the Superbowl had a concert stuck in the middle...

Collective Soul--a little to new wave, but I like them.

 

[Ryanwb]

Don't hate the player (Sparks), hate the game (American Idol)

 

[thirty-two]

Get it, GIRL!!!

She does sing a mean National Anthem!

 

[Spielman]

Collective Soul--a little to new wave, but I like them.

Er... that's not a description I ever thought I'd hear applied to Collective Soul.

 

[AZ Native]

ugh i hate jordan sparks.

ugh, personal problem.

Just listened to Collective Soul stuff on youtube to familiarize myself. Sounded good. Acoustics suck in our stadium anyway, so nothing they perform will be clearly heard.

Still wish we'd keep professional music performers out of all halftimes. Chances are most of them have been through rehab several times, are on work release from rehab now or will be in rehab in the future. Since we won't tolerate substance abuse from our players and test them, why not do the same for performers? NFL hypocrisy.

Playoffs are about football, not about halftime acts. Halftimes are meant for bathroom visits and ASFN meets.

Jordin Sparks is local. Decent choice for anthem singer.

 

[Bert]

Hooray for Jordin Sparks... For me the anthem doesn't get any better than that.

Two gigantic thumbs down on Collective Soul. I mean I couldn't care less cuz I'll be at the ASFN halftime anyways but seriously, someone tell the Cardinals entertainment director that it's 2009 not 1999...

Just when I thought it couldn't get any worse than 3 Dorks Down... What's next, the B-52's?

 

[HooverDam]

Collective Soul? Lame. If youre going to go for an outdated act you might as well get someone local like Alice Cooper, Stevie Nicks or the Gin Blossoms. Or someone current and local like Authority Zero.

 

[Cardiac]

I love me some Collective Soul.

Don't get to excited about half time acts or even who signs the national athemn.
