I don't mind eating crow on this one except that my delusions are based on fan blindness.

I am claiming insanity..... errr the glove didn't fit...... my dog ate the gameplan...?

I don't think anyone who has been labeled a Darksider has eaten crow. 0-2.

Yeah, it's a pipe-dream. But, you know what?? Fans can force the league to take a serious look at the matter. And, perhaps force Billy Bidwill to get out his checkbook.

How much do you think a fan boycott would affect things? It's not like we're asking 72,000 to stay home on Sundays.

No fans = National publicity

National publicity = Changes

It's got to start somewhere.


I will go to every Cards game from here on out.


Just cause you have no heart, don't question mine.

This can be done.

If every one of us hard-core Arizona NFL fans would spend as much time trying to get something started, as we do wasting our ideas on a message board all day long...

then it's possible.

Everbody here cares. Getting people together is the hard part. We've already accomplished that!


Get a life.

As with all the folks who love to suggest we should have brought more FA in, just who would you like them to get and do you think they would come.

The only name that comes to mind is Jimmy Johnson and by all accounts he is way to happy sailing his boat.

I read something last year that NFLPA has already been complaining about the Cards to the NFL.I can't remember excatly what the complaint was but i think it has to do with the small gate and lack of revnue the Cards generate.It hurts the overall salary cap.It may have been in an article on why the Cards were a leading candidate to be moved.

Moving this team will not help. For the years of mediocrity there has been one constant. Ownership and they way they do business.

My friends and I were discussing this earlier as well. The communist system the NFL runs does not make teams and owners like the Bidwills accountable. Yes the Cardinals make money, but for what? Having the least successful franchise in NFL history. Anyone who makes the argument that the Bidwills really want to win really needs their head checked.

Agreed. This team is in a very sad state. Some of you guys who have been a fan for 40 years are nutz!

This team is sickning to watch. I stopped watching at 31-0. Next week I will stop watching at 21-0.

I got the ticket and there are to many good games to watch. I love my Cardinals but watching paint dry was more entertaining.

Would you watch the agonizing last quarter and a 1/2 or the Buc vs Carolina game?

Cardinals suck! And are not even competitive.

This team needs a NEW identity! It wouldn't freakin' hurt!
But you can't paint a duck green and call it a mallard. When it quacks it's still a duck.

I thought that mallards were ducks?

lol :) But at this point, the Cardinals gotta pull out all the stops. I keep hearing a lot of people wishing they hadn't voted for that stadium. The Cards need to make it RIGHT!
