Lets Go Arizona Cardinals!

Ok, I will be the first to admit that the NFC West was not much to talk about this year.  The Cardinals winning the division with the kind of record they did shows you how bad the division was.  I don’t care about all that – the Cardinals are in the playoffs and I hope they do well and end up surprising everyone.

I got my Father in Law tickets for his Christmas present, but the suprise was still to come: (after the game – keep reading)

I also had the opportunity to meet most of the players (and suprise my Father in Law even more) after the Seattle game last week thanks to a meet and greet pass courtesy of Chike Okeafor, and they all promised (including Kurt Warner) that they would make Arizona proud!  It was pretty awesome to get to meet and greet the team.  Kurt Warner is a class act and I can’t say enough good things about him.  He took about an hour extra that night to make sure and talk, and sign autographs for everyone who wanted one. It was funny to watch him and his wife interact – he was sticking around making people happy – even when she was nagging him to leave..  LOL – It made me laugh that even if you are multi-million dollar famous QB – you still have to answer to your wifey!!

I had a blast talking with them all, and wanted to take this opportunity to share some pictures and just thank the Arizona Cardinals for a great season and wish them an amazing post season!

It was cool getting to meet the Arizona Cardinals Coach Whisenhunt – He was way cool and very nice to talk to.  He promised hes going to do everything he can to extend the Cardinals season!  He has done some amazing things with this team the last couple years.  I think this is just the beginning for Football in Arizona!

Here is the man himself – Kurt Warner – Thanks again to Kurt for signing my jersey and taking the time to chat with us!  I gained new respect for this Super Bowl MVP

I am still waiting on a few pictures from my brother – who was also at the game with us, but I will share them another day.  The Cardinals playoff game is today, and I just wanted to take this opportunity to post all this and tell the Cardinals how cool it was to meet them and I really hope they have a long post season.

It has been amazing watching them play this year.  They have had some bad weeks, but for the most part it has been fun watching them play and especially seeing Kurt Warner do so well and air it out.  I finally have something to look forward to in Arizona when it comes to football now!

    Silt, I’ve loved following the Cards this year as well.. I’ve always heard good things about Kurt Warner, glad to see they’re true… You guys must have had a blast.

    This is my first year following Arizona, call me bandwagon..who cares… I’m a Boldin, Warner and Tim Hightower fan now…

    Even if this year does not end up like I may want – I think the Cardinals are moving in the direction of being a great team! We deserve good football in Arizona – we have been waiting long enough!

    If the rest of the crew lived in, and enjoyed the great State if Arizona as much as I do – then I would have – easily! But seeing how you Utah folks love your snow infested non-professional Football state …. I’ll just end it there.
