We live in a sports graveyard.

The Cardinals are back to losing

The Dback will not win another world series in your lifetime

The coyotes suck

The Sun Devil football program has gone down the drain

Thank God for the Suns, but they will split that team up after next year

I boycotted pro sports 10 years ago. The only time I will attend a game is it it's free. It's worked out quite well, because I still get asked to go often for free. I will not pay most of the average athletes salaries. You think about that next time your busting your ass at work. Think how much they make and how many people plunk their hard earned money down to see an inferior product.

AH Tonyd,
Something we can agree on!

I am a huge football fan, college and pro. I was really looking forward to the ASU season, and while I know that kind of organization the Cards are, I was cautiously optimistic. The season is barely underway, and both ASU and the Cards are severe disappointments.

The Coyotes will be average, probably better than last year, but that ain't saying much.

The Dbacks will wallow in medocrity for years.

The Suns-you are right. It is do or die for them this year. But Amare is acting like a spoiled brat-from a AZ Republic article (I believe on Friday) the team is about done with him and his attitude.

If someone gives me a ticket the Cards I will go. I should see the gift/stadium that the taxpayers gave to the Bidwells.

I agree with you Tony
Since I wont buy the NFL ticket I got to watch Greenbay play St Louis. Wow what a finish I think Brett Favre, Far, farve or what ever you want to call him will probably end up in tthe AZ graveyard. He looked like he was playing in a trans today. To the boneyard with him. Gave away the game with 40 seconds on the clock on the St. Louis 8 yard line. The funny thing about it is I knew he was going to fumble it away I think he gambles.

OMFG, I agree too.

With the exception of the Suns, Phoenix sports is a wasteland. More often than not, I turn down free tickets unless free parking and booze is part of the package. Even then, I'd rather stay home and toss darts at my Donald Rumsfeld dartboard, or push pins into my Bush-Cheney vodoo dolls.

Just kidding . . . or am I?

Another subject:verb agreement mistake. "free parking and booze is part of the package" should read "free parking and booze are part of the package."

I think I've been in China too long. The LED display on the Qinghai-Tibet train was pretty hilarious at times with English translations. More memorable quotes were:

Welcome to taking this train!!!

and

Attention passengers and friend . . .

They spent something like $10 billion dollars to complete the Tibet portion of this high altitude train, and yet they couldn't even hire William to do the proofreading for their tourism board.
