With the rest of the entire NFL about to join the off-season the Arizona Cardinals have been enjoying for a month now after next weeks Super Bowl, the Cards are going to have to get serious about deciding what they are going to do with their future, more specifically their quarterback future.

One day before the annual Pro Bowl is to take place and I am still not that excited to watch it.  I suppose I will tune in for a little while for the lack of any other football to watch.  I guess I must savor it seeing as it all ends next week in Dallas at the Super Bowl.  We might be down to the last two games in the NFL for quite some time.  I hope that is not the case.

The following information was sent to me in regards to Arizona Cardinals receiver Larry Fitzgerald, who is participating in tomorrow’s Pro Bowl in Hawaii. He is going to be giving $5000 to the Glendale United Way for every touchdown he scores. Please read the information I received and cheer on Larry Fitzgerald and the rest of the NFC players!

The other night during President Obama’s State of the Union address, he brought up the evolution of Sputnik and what it did for the space program in the Soviet Union.  Then he talked about NASA and what is has done for the space program in the United States.  Then, came along Sarah Palin.  Today, she said that Sputnik led to the destruction of the USSR.  She said Obama has no idea what he is talking about.

The Green Bay Packers have a lot of injured players. A lot. Make that 16 players on injured reserve. That is one of the reasons why their run to the Super Bowl has been so remarkable, at least in my opinion.  For the upcoming Super Bowl though in Dallas against the Pittsburgh Steelers though, they might as well be on the Arizona Cardinals roster, not playing and not invited to a Super Bowl Team photo.

As I sit here and watch the NFC Championship Game between the Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears, I can’t help but remember back to the NFC Championship two years ago between the Arizona Cardinals and Philadelphia Eagles.  Oh how times have changed.  Cards finished 5-11 this season and the Eagles made the playoffs but lost in the first round to the Packers at home.

I used to be a fan of American Idol.  Now Idol has just become ridiculous, another sinking reality show gone awry.  With new judges Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez, I just can’t bring myself to watching what this show has become.  There was a day I’d clear my schedule to watch.  I also used to be that way with the Arizona Cardinals.  That was, until this season.  I like Steven Tyler, just not as a judge.  I still love my Arizona Cardinals, just not interested in watching anymore of what transpired this past season.

Almost three weeks since the Arizona Cardinals season ended and I still sit here waiting for the Cardinals to make a move on their defensive coordinator position.  Word is they may be waiting on the Pittsburgh Steelers season to end in order to interview Kevin Butler.  That may never happen.  If it doesn’t I sure hope they at least put all of that game video from 2010 on the rocket that launched today from Vandenberg Air Force Base because if the Cards don’t land Butler or someone else from the Steelers defensive staff, they might as well just call you [...]

I will do a full mock draft once the playoffs are complete, so for now, here is my mock draft for the first 28 picks, for all the non-playoff teams and playoff teams already eliminated: 1. Carolina Panthers -Nick Fairley, DT, Auburn

Guess who, statistically speaking based on winning percentage from 2010, has the easiest schedule in the NFL again in 2011? Yep, your Arizona Cardinals.  Yeah great, because that turned out so well for the Cards in 2010.
