Health Concerns for Kurt Warner

ESPN.com NFC West blogger Mike Sando wrote a nice little piece on Cardinals QB – and greatest person ever – Kurt Warner that explored Warner’s health and general ability to stay healthy. Sando’s primary takeaway was that Warner is not nearly as brittle as some may suggest. In fact, Warner hasn’t missed a start (he [...]

Arnie Spanier is a Genius

I assume you’re surprised.  As you may remember I once wrote about my dislike of Spanier due to his pension for yelling in the morning hours – well in the light of a few recent suggestions I’ve changed my tune.  In the last few days Spanier has presented some ideas on his local radio program [...]

Cards Sign Adrian Wilson To Contract Extension

On Thursday the Cards agreed on a 5-year, $37 million dollar contract extension with strong safety Adrian Wilson.  I realize this is relatively tame news for SoD but it’s a good sign that the Cardinals are working towards keeping the core of the 2008 NFC Champs together.  SoD reached out to former heavyweight boxing champion [...]

Rod Graves, Harbinger of Agents’ Demise!

Various sources are reporting that big cry baby disgruntled Cardinals WR Anquan Boldin has fired super-agent Drew Rosenhaus. Rosenhaus released a statement essentially confirming his termination via Twitter, as super-agents are wont to do.  Just last month Karlos Dansby also fired his long term agent, Kirk Wood; however, unlike Boldin, Dansby has a very good [...]

Former Cardinal Travis LaBoy could miss the entire 2009 season – Now the Cards releasing LaBoy looks even smarter than it did last week. I haven’t had the story confirmed yet but I’d imagine that LaBoy’s bones are made up of a combination of paper mache, spit, and chewing tobacco. Westgate City Center says no [...]

Dockett Demands Trade and a Pony, Threatens to Pout if Demands Not Met

This last weekend Darnell Dockett, again, demanded that the Cardinals trade him … or he will be really unhappy.  Cardinals officials tried really hard not to laugh in his face rejected the demand.  Dockett is represented by Drew Rosenhaus, the same super agent, representing Anquan Boldin who is, surprise surprise also demanding a trade.  Believe [...]

Waving Goodbye to “No Good”

Along with today’s expected news that the Cardinals were waiving Edgerrin James, they also said good-bye to both DE Travis LaBoy and CB Rod Hood. The James release means nothing to me as they replaced him with Beanie Wells (who, yes I’ve already talked myself into). In addition James couldn’t even crack 4 yards per [...]

Cardinals Sign Compelling Undrafted Free-Agent

After a 2nd day of the NFL Draft in which the Cardinals filled needs (offensive line, Aaron Francisco replacement),  I was most curious about one of the undrafted free agents they signed.  The Cards inked Florida State CB/KR Michael Ray Garvin, who at the FSU pro-day was timed at 4.24 and 4.28.   As 40 times [...]
