7 words you want to hear
“We are going to the super bowl”. 7 words you want your team’s fans to hear. The AZ Cardinals the worst playoff team in history according to many experts just got to the big dance…the Super Bowl by beating the favored and talented Phildaelphia Eagles. That was one of the most exciting games I have ever been involved in (and my team is really the Chicago Bears)…the crowd was sooo loud for every Eagle play and responded so well to the ups and downs of the game. The Eagles made a huge comeback and almost won…by QB Kurt Warner would prevail on a long drive capped off Hightowers exceptional catch and 9 yard run into the end zone. If Fitzgerald w 3 TDs is not best end in football….who is? Great for our city and it’s real fans. I’m still in disbelief.
More later I’m tired.
Great lessons for all, Never underestimate your opponent…and an unselfish team w a good culture can surprise you…





Hi Al,
You may or may not remember me from Electronics Weekly in the UK. I’ve been following the Cardinals progress (even though I’m a 49ers fan). What a great story, perennial whipping boys, written off in the play-offs and now off the big show, after as good a game as you’re likely to see.
Everything I read about Kurt Warner says Top Bloke, so good luck to him. It’ll be a tough one against the Steelers, but, hey, they’ve bucked the odds so far.
I’ve recorded the feat on my blog

Hi Al,
You may or may not remember me from Electronics Weekly in the UK. I’ve been following the Cards’ fortunes (though I’m a 49ers fan). Not a bad effort for a team constantly written off through the play-offs. And everything I read about Kurt Warner says Top Bloke, so good luck to him.
I did a piece on my blog which might interest you,
All the best
Mick
