Burns: Why James was worth it

On the surface, the Arizona Cardinal career of Edgerrin James appears to be a waste of time, money and manpower. The Cardinals had the worst rushing attack in the NFL when he got here and when he left. Bookends of futility to be sure. On the field he brought nothing to the table. You can’t […]

Burns: Fell into the Cardinals lap

Make no mistake; that wasn’t skill the Cardinals employed on Saturday in taking Beanie Wells. That was sheer luck. I don’t think any of us, even in our most mocked mock draft would have thought the Ohio State star would be there at #31. Yet there he was, the most intriguing player in the draft […]

Gambo: Fans need to thank Randy Johnson

With all the discussion in this town focusing on the NFL draft this weekend let’s not forget Randy Johnson returns to Chase Field for the first time as the enemy. On Saturday, Johnson will face Max Scherzer and the emotions will be high. For Johnson it is a chance to gain win number 297 and […]

Gambo: I expect Boldin to be dealt at the right price

I fully expect to turn on the microphone next Monday and be discussing the Cardinals’ trading of star wide receiver Anquan Boldin. Somehow I think that one of the teams interested in acquiring Boldin will step up their offer to meet the Cardinals demand of a first and third rounder. Both Baltimore and the New […]

Burns: Defending Eric Byrnes (well…kinda)

The D-backs had just lost to the San Francisco Giants 2-0, completing a weekend series in which Arizona scored 2 runs, compiled 11 hits and amassed 31 strikeouts against the Giants. And after this nightmare series is over, what does the announcer implore me to do? Stay tuned. ‘The Eric Byrnes Show’ is next. Really? […]

Gambo: Byrnes needs to step up

I just got done watching another Diamondbacks loss Friday night — they seem to be mounting and the season is only two weeks old — and I have to wonder how long the organization can continue to roll Eric Byrnes out there. In the top of the 9th down 2-0 with nobody out and Chris […]

Gambo: It is time to start over

Over the past few months I have received tons of emails regarding the Phoenix Suns. Some people want the team to stay together, others want the team to be blown up. For me the answer is obvious. It’s time to start over, rebuild. In fact it was time to start over last year. There is […]

Burns: The Cards are doing the right thing

Like the guy who smokes two packs of cigs a day who finally admits he needs to quit, the Arizona Cardinals have finally admitted that, yes, they’ll listen to teams who are interested in Anquan Boldin. The Cardinals have steadfastly and stubbornly refused to say they’ll move their receiver, instead of insisting that they want […]
