Thanks for the memories, Kurt...

There's not a lot I can say that hasn't already been said about Kurt Warner. We all know his story and the remarkable road he took to NFL stardom.

Today, effective at 1:00PM MST, Kurt Warner retired from professional football. With the press conference being announced earlier this week there was little doubt this was the end result, but I think every Cardinals fan--myself included--held out a glimmer of hope that he would play one more year. Alas, it wasn't to be but I think I'm ok with that. There's lots that I could say about where this leaves the Cardinals and wondering if Matt Leinart really is the guy, but today is Kurt Warner's day. I'll respect that and save my speculation for this summer when the Cardinals gear back up for the 2010-11 season.

Time to blow up the Suns?

We interrupt playoff football to bring you an urgent news story: The Suns cannot contend with the pieces they have now, and will be looking to move Amare before the deadline. Period.

You heard it here first...ok well maybe not first, or even fifth, but you get the picture. While Amare has lived up to expectations this year after eye surgery, he clearly is not as explosive, and still is not interested in rebounding or playing defense. That's exactly why the Suns brought in Shaq last year, and it's why they are starting Lopez with him instead of Frye now. With Frye and Stoudemire together on the floor, it leaves the rebounding to J-Rich and Grant Hill, who bless them have been doing their part to scrap but it just isn't enough. Unfortunately for all parties involved, this team as it is--though entertaining--is not a championship contender.

"So where is Amare going?" Great question.

The show must go on...

Tough to come up with any funny videos after the Cards blowing that one. At least it was basically over at halftime so I had time to get used to the idea. Good run boys. Stringing together playoff runs is part of becoming a legitimate threat again, and it only gets tougher in the West.

Anyways, the picks must go on. Here are Sunday's playoff games; home teams in CAPS.

They are who we thought they were!!

Hopefully we don't hear Whisenhunt saying that later today. Anyways, big surprises last week make for some interesting drama this week. I was 2-2 last week, so let's see how this goes. Saturday's games first; home teams in CAPS.

The Re-Vamped Suns Drinking Game

Someone did this on Facebook awhile back and I was a part of it, but I've done some updating to keep up with the current roster. The Phoenix Suns have always been fun to watch. If you happen to be enjoying a few brews with some friends during the game here's some rules to play by! Feel free to pass this on to anyone and post any suggestions you have.

You play to win the game!

Since a video clip started the last one so well....



Anyone not playing to win this weekend goes home and gets 6 months to think about it. Saturday's games are in the books, lets see what Sunday has to offer. Home teams in CAPS.

Playoffs? You kiddin me? Playoffs?

Haha...have to start with it...sorry...



Here we are, the 2010 NFL postseason. 8 teams will each work to write their own history over the next month as they march towards Super Bowl XLIV. Will the Jets squeak in and surprise everyone? Or do the Patriots make yet another run? Do the Cardinals break all the curses (Madden cover, Super Bowl loser) and ride their high-flying offense to a title? We shall see. I've decided to come up with some analysis and a few picks myself in this inaugural NFL playoff year of Sportsaholic Anonymous. Saturday games first and home teams in CAPS; here we go!
