Anything less than a Super Bowl ring next is season is going to be a disappointment now that the bar is set the highest it's ever been. Gotta nail it in free agency, the draft, and maybe a trade or 2 in order to have a chance. Of course, we need a healthy Carson Palmer who hopefully has learned his lesson in the playoffs and get a better backup QB would certainly help too.

Palmer ain't winning a Superbowl.

Edit: let me rephrase that. If the Cardinals have a strong enough team, they might be able win one in spite of Palmer, but not because of him.

Seeing that he's playing his best football regular season wise, I'm not going to write him off as not being able to win the Super Bowl just yet. Let's see if he learns his lesson and the horrible playoff performance will provided great motivation for him to do better in the playoffs next season.

Disappointing, sure. But hopefully Hurley can recruit the players he wants, and in a couple years be fighting for more than worst in the Pac-12.

Agreed.

When we beat Green Bay in the playoffs this year, and it was Palmer's first postseason win as a starting QB, it was pretty much winning in spite of him, not because of him. He tried pretty hard to choke the game away.

Got a feeling Cooper will hit his potential wit the Pats. Not a huge fan of the trade.

Great road runs bringing in the Summer Series races starting on the 26th at South Mountain.
The Arizona Road Racers are putting on the South Mountain Classic 5 and 20K.
I always look forward to this because it means it won't be long till its "Hot town, summer in the city"
First Summer Series race will be at the water park in Gilbert a few weeks later!

PHOENIX - The Arizona Diamondbacks want out of their lease at taxpayer-owned Chase Field so they can negotiate with other entities for new stadium, according to documents obtained by 12 News.

Maricopa County's rejection of the Diamondbacks' request has now led to an angry response from the team's chief executive officer, Derrick Hall, declaring that he was "shocked and disappointed" by the county's response.

The team has threatened to sue if the county doesn't give it permission to look for other stadium sites.

The back-and-forth began with Hall's two-paragraph letter March 16 to the Maricopa County Board, asking to modify the Chase Field lease:

"We are requesting that the Maricopa County Stadium District allow AZPB Limited Partnership (the team's owner) the right to take such actions as it deems necessary in order to move and play Diamondbacks' baseball games in a location other than Chase Field."
