The Arizona Cardinals are no closer to the playing field. Players and owners aren’t meeting and the longer this NFL lockout drags, it appears more and more likely the 2011 season is in major jeopardy.  I would have thought the players might show an inkling of buckling on some of the issues, but apparently they are quite content with letting this drag out going into June.

Certainly most of the off-season talk about the Arizona Cardinals has centered on the team’s need for a new quarterback, and there’s no question than an upgrade at quarterback will be required for the Cardinals to make it back into the playoffs this coming year.

First Tuscaloosa, AL. Now Joplin MO. The small town of Joplin, MO was devastated earlier today by an F5 tornado. Almost 75% of the town was leveled. I just wanted to take this time out to keep the people there in your thoughts and prayers. Please also continue to pray for those in Alabama affected by the tornado that ripped through there just under one month ago.

The world of the NFL and the Arizona Cardinals have been pretty quiet this week, however those Cards on Twitter are as active as ever.  They have to do something to pass the time, right?  I assume they all survived The Rapture as the rest of us did.  Here is a small sampling of what Cards players have tweeted this week.

As we wait for the NFL labor situation to be resolved,this is a continuation of a series on current Arizona Cardinals players and my thoughts on the past performance all the way to whether I think they will be on the roster in 2011. I go from A and go to Z.  Next up:  Receiver  Larry Fitzgerald

  We all know by now that at 6pm tomorrow local time, The Rapture will have happened or it won’t have.  However, if it does happen, there are a few things I won’t miss if the Arizona Cardinals happen to be amongst those saved and fly away to heaven.

A permanent stay of execu…uh um, I mean NFL Lockout.  That was the 2-1 decision by the 8th Circuit Court today, saying the NFL would ultimately suffer harm if the lockout was lifted.  I beg to differ but I’m no judge.  I’m just jury.  Unfortunately in this case there doesn’t get to be one of those.
