Anquan Wants out of Arizona


By Eli Wahlstrom on August 19th, 2008

The Anquan Boldin drama is starting to heat up once again. A large part of this is thanks to agent Drew Rosenhaus. Drew is shopping Anquan and talking to teams about trades.

Cardinals Take loss in First Preseason Game


By Eli Wahlstrom on August 7th, 2008

Well the first preseason game has finally happened and it was a 24-10 loss to the New Orleans Saints. Most of you already know that the preseason score doesn’t matter much so I don’t think that’s something I concern myself with. I’d rather break down the good and the bad of the game.

Cardinals Fighting to Keep Cowboy Fans Away


By Eli Wahlstrom on July 23rd, 2008
