    Who thinks they should just release all of there players, fire all of the coaching staff, and get a fresh new start. Little dramatization there but anyway, did anybody see the fan support they get? Watching SportCenter i saw atleast 50% of the stadium was filled. Getting new uniforms and moving somewhere else wouldnt be a bad idea either.

    Well, personally, I'm sick and tired of the media's obsession with Jeff Blake.

    Much like the L.A. Clippers, it all starts at the top.

    As long as Bill Bidwill makes money, he has no incentive to improve the team. The only way to fix the problem is to slip the guy a mickey and get him to sell the team or have Tags step in (though I don't know the legal issues behind that).

    There were that many people there? :confused: It looked like a high school football crowd, if that.

    I cant blame the fans for not showing up. That team is lousy, they all wanted the local college hero in Terrell Suggs and they didnt get their wish. Suggs would fill a need and make the fans happy. What did they get instead pace and johnson? I was shocked at the cardinals draft and I think ESPN was as well.

    The majority of their 1st round picks over the last decade or so have been complete flops or they didnt resign them when they became free agents. They need new management

    You gotta give them credit for Anquan Boldin, though.

    Mysteriously, this franchise fascinates me. They're so sad, that it draws me in, closer and closer. I can't help but follow the hapless team and its tail-chasing, roundabout manner of self-destruction.

    I think Tempe must be the sight of the a vortex into the bizarro world, where failure equates to success.

    Let them move to San Antonio.

    If Florida, California, and New York deserve 3 football teams, so do we!

    Having them in San Antonio would be kind of a devil's bargain. On the one hand, they'd finally get an NFL team of their own, but on the other hand, it's the Cardinals.

    But since the Cards are tied to the new stadium currently under construction in the Valley, they are going to be the shame of the greater Phoenix area for some time to come.

    I don't see what releasing the coaching staff would accomplish. I think they've done alright with the talent they've had on the field. But they are going to get axed at some point, that's just how it goes.

    They pretty much released all their good players last offseason.

    They need to get a better gm for the draft and in trying to go after better fas.

    Word- i'll take his 6 catches for 95 yds every week, though i'd love another 50 point outburst. Get in the end zone Anquan! :D

    Anquan Boldin proves that Bobby Bowden and the FSU assistant coaching staff cannot develop pro talent............;)

    Its all Bill Bidwell. He is probably one if not the worst sports team owners of all time if ever. He is a freaking joke. The fans know it, the media knows it, the NFL knows it, hell even he probably knows it.

    The dude is a bow tie wearing fat b*stard and a disgrace to sports. Oh yeah and I hear he is best friends with Donald Sterling.

    The team is destined for failure year in and year out.

    The Cards will always be a laughingstock. It's just sad that Emmitt has tarnished all that he has achieved joining said laughingstock. :(
