ESPN 1st and 10

Cardinal have them right where they want them. As they reveiwed the playoff teams, former team players and announcers preveiwed the games. They had Jim Fassel step in for the Cardinals as an outsider. He stammered on about the Giants goingto the SB after a 4-4 late season record last year. And didn't seem to know nothing about the Actual Cardinals.

All the back eastern folks have only seen our bad play and highlights. I think they are going to have a rude awaking on Saturday.

Maybe Ron Wolfley will be on and give them some pointers on nFL passion and down to earth mud swallowing once the secrets out. As for now they haven't got a clue about these cardinals.

You do know that Fassell has spent pretty much the entire season on the West coast right? Of course you don't otherwise you wouldn't be talking out of your butt again and again about this stuff. Let me also cut you off before you go on about NFLN too. It's also filmed in LA and Eisen and crew are all on the West coast so before you say they are also out east so they no nothing about the west just stop and don't say anything at all...


As for analyst not going on and on about the Cards. Think about the last time the Cards were in the playoffs and won a playoff game. Think about the last time the cards made a playoff run. If you want analyst to not go off the negative then the Cards need to transform and give positive things to talk about. Otherwise recognize that all the bad press the Cards get is earned by what the Cards have done (or not done).

DId you watch it? Or are you attacking me out of habit again. He didn't know anything about the Cardinals. Except for Warners name.

I don't need you to tell me what to think
But 3, 1000 yard receivers and even with the bad games over 4500 yards by Warner is worth mentioning
DO YOU THINK or not THINK!

Why is Fassel put on to talk about the Cardinals anyway. Just to talk about the Giants?

If you think it's out of habit then you should stop making a habit of posting false information. Again I could care less about whether or not Fassel spent all his time talking about the Giants on a program when I'm pointing out how you and a lot of other posters continue to claim that any negative talk about the Cards has nothing to do with AZ stinking up the place and is all about an east coast bias.

As I've said to people on other boards. I go to boards for 'pathetic' west coast teams and here "east coast bias" I then go to 'pathetic' east coast boards and here "the media just hates us"

Right now AZ has no history that's in the SB era that's earned a positive mention in the media so why should they get a positive spin. Unless you're condoning the press and everyone else lying in order to make you feel good about a team you somewhat follow...

I take it you're a Raven fan. I'm a Cardinal fan...pleased to meet you.
A lot of people expect the same Cardinal team they saw in New England to play Saturday against the Falcons. Any run of the mill ordinary Cardinal fan would know that the team that "played" in New England was totally uninterested and had no motivation whatsoever to win that game. Some people are P.i.ss.e.d about the way the Cards didn't bother to show up for that game.
Other people are a more understanding as to what was really going on. I belong to the latter camp. I for one expect to see the same team that beat Dallas x 2.
I seriously believe Atlanta will go home with a loss.
Only THEN will all the other people wake up. Of course...
You will say I need to wake up NOW and that's not happening. That's fine. You'll see Saturday.
Good luck to your Ravens too.

TIZ is a long time Cards fan in the closet, He loves his Ravens but remains a mainstay on the Cards board.
He joins in with the chirpers whenever I say something good about Edge. But he is the most passionate non Cardinal fan on the board. He brings a great perspective
and the truth is we don't see that many of the eastern teams in Arizona. Not the ESPN highlights but the grind it out chess game setting up plays and coaching execution.

The Cards are healthy, talented and in the playoffs.
And I would love to meet the Ravens in the SB.

I don't care where Fassel is working or Espn for that matter. It was terrible playoff coverage on 1st and 10.
Skip did predict the Cards win in a shootout 34-31. And as much as I don't like Skip's personality like everyone else. I beleive he was not lazy he watched the game.

Didn't just make judgements from a news paper.
