No one, not even Larry Fitzgerald himself knows for sure if Saturday's game against the Carolina Panthers will be his final game in an Arizona Cardinals uniform.
The term “what if” is a classic sports phrase. It is used far too often when discussing games, seasons, careers. etc. Sometimes it fits and sometimes it doesn’t. In all of my years covering sports here in Arizona, there were two legitimate “what ifs” — two that haunted sports fans the moment they happened and […]
OK, time for me to play NFL commissioner. Might as well since the real commissioner is missing in action, probably holed up in a bunker somewhere waiting for the Russians to arrive. Look, anyone who has listened to the show for any extended period of times knows this: I think Roger Goodell is a dope. […]
Larry Fitzgerald is arguably the greatest player to ever wear an Arizona Cardinals uniform. He is a sure-fire Hall of Famer and for a time held the title as the game's best wide receiver.
OK, enough is enough. Time to get real here. Memo to Eric Bledsoe — you need new representation. This Rich Paul is a joke and he is steering you down a slippery slope. I’m sure he told you everything you wanted to hear at the end of the season. I’m sure he told you that […]
I’m not sure who is the best cornerback in the NFL. I just know the Arizona Cardinals have one of the best in Patrick Peterson. And there are about five or six teams that have a guy of that caliber, someone in the conversation of best in the league. Locking up Peterson to a five-year […]
It’s not about wins and losses right now for the Arizona Diamondbacks. Memo to the national media who are criticizing Arizona for their actions Tuesday night at Chase Field: The Diamondbacks are out of it. They are not contending for the National League West crown or a Wild Card. They won’t even make it to […]
Look, I am not surprised the Spurs are up 3-1 in this series. I picked them three months ago and said that this was the best Spurs team I had ever seen. I had them winning this series in five games because I believe they are that much better than Miami. But no one could […]
Enough is enough with this clown. It’s time for the Arizona Cardinals to cut Daryl Washington and move on. He has proven to be untrustworthy, extremely selfish and totally incapable of supporting his team or this community. He just screwed his teammates and the Cardinals fans. A team coming off a 10-win season and poised […]
Addison Reed has two blown saves, an ERA of 5.03 and has given up a mind-boggling six home runs in 19.2 innings. But despite calls to the contrary, he needs to remain the closer for the Arizona Diamondbacks. Despite converting 11 saves in 13 opportunities, Reed hasn’t been great. Almost every appearance is an adventure. […]
There is nothing that pops out of the Cardinals’ draft that wows me, and that’s perfectly fine as long as they ended up with quality football players that can help this team take the next step. Arizona addressed some needs — defensive back, tight end and wide receiver — and they passed on some such […]
He wasn’t worth a first-round pick back at the trade deadline, although in hindsight he may have very well been able to push Phoenix into the playoffs. But now that he is set to be a free agent in July, Pau Gasol is well worth a long hard look by the Suns. One of the […]
The problem with the Arizona Diamondbacks is that there is no easy fix. In many ways they are stuck with what they have: the team general manager Kevin Towers put together. Outside of top prospect Archie Bradley, there is not a lot of help coming from the minor leagues. Towers has traded away six of […]
We had quite a spirited debate about the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday’s edition of Burns and Gambo. It centered around the circumstances Phoenix would be facing if they make the playoffs and if they don’t. I think it’s safe to say the vast majority of us want to see the Suns rewarded for a very […]
OK, let’s get one thing straight here — it’s March 18. The baseball season hasn’t even started. There are still 162 games left to be played. So no, likely losing Patrick Corbin for the season does not mean the season is over for the Arizona Diamondbacks. Yes, it sucks. We all get that. Corbin was […]
What I’m about to say has very little to do with the Arizona game. Sure, beating your rival whom happened to be the No. 2 team in the country 69-66 in double overtime helps. But it’s not like Arizona State coach Herb Sendek has never done that before. In fact, he has beaten Arizona a […]
