Game 8 Cards vs. Rams

The Cardinals have had 8 straight losses in a row.   At the time of this game, it was 6 losses in a  row and the anticipation (or my wishful thoughts) were that we would break that streak.  It didn't happen.  What more is there to say?   Nothing.

Just look at the pics....

My favorite part of the game

This always touches me -- the prayer in the end zone  before the game

At this point, I'm just getting pictures of players I like.
My favorite kicker Jay Feely

Steven Jackson

See #91, that's Chris Long, Howie Long's son

Patrick Peterson ~ what's not to love?

My favorite Big Red Bird! 

Prayer after the game

QB, Sam Bradford

Head Coach, Jeff Fisher

My pictures are dull and my comments are dull.  

There's just not much to write about.  

I'm just saying.......

I still love my Cards.

Next home game is December 16, 2012 against the Lions.

Go CARDS!

Game 7 Cards vs. 49ers ~MNF~

Monday Night Football!  Need I say more?

There was so much excitement this game, I took the least amount of photos ever and the photos I did take were all horrible.   There were too many distractions!   First of all, we were getting our butts kicked the entire time so the need to yell and scream to possibly cause a FALSE START/DELAY OF GAME penalty became priority -- screaming for the defense is my favorite part of being in the stands.  Second, it was Halloween week so there were plenty of fans dressed in costumes.  Sweetheart and I were one of them!  Sweetheart dressed as Demon (Gene Simmons) and I dressed as Star Child (Paul Stanley)....CARDINALS STYLE! 

We both wore the usual Cards gear but we colored our faces with red and white paint (Card colors).  Sweetheart even wore a wig!  We had a blast!  Everyone loved it!  ESPN was on site due to it being MNF -- we had a photographer take a picture of us and ask us our names -- we're still waiting to see where that shows up.    We were shown on the big screen quite a few times which was pretty exciting!

BUT, I didn't get any pictures because of all of the excitement. This one picture is one I took in the car on our way to the stadium.  Geez......

Here's some shots of I really don't know what...

Here's a picture of Alex Smith, 49er's QB:

The kickers:

The roof was open which was especially exciting because it was a beautiful night!  The roof is generally not open until the end of the season because it's usually like 180 degrees outside...I'm not joking:

The moon was out and peeking over the stadium:

49er's head coach, Jim Harbaugh:

One of the only pictures of play action that was half decent:

And there you go.  One of the most exciting nights of the regular season and I forgot to get pictures!  Alas, we are now 4-4.  But I still love my CARDS!

Next home game is on November 25th against the Rams.

Go CARDS!

Game 6 - Cards vs. Bills

It was a tough loss.  Let's just say my Cardinals made me cry.  We were so close.  But "any given Sunday", am I right?

For Game 6, Sweetheart got his hands on tickets to the company suit.   So instead of sitting in our season seats, we got a view from above as we feasted on great ball game grub and had a cocktail (or two)....

I should have taken a picture of the seats, which Sweetheart reminded me to do several times but I was so distracted by the food, wine and gifts.   They were cushioned and oh so comfortable!

Here's the pictures I managed to get (when I remembered):

Love the picture on the screen.  I want this on my work phone.

This would have been all the more awesome had we won:

Because I can never get too many shots of the Red Zone:

I completely missed the praying at the end zone before the game but I got a shot of the praying that the players do at the end of each game.  This is special because players from both teams take a knee together:

Check out the handheld device they gave us to watch replays and other games on:

These are the flag guys hard at work after a touch down!

As always, stalking Big Red:

During half time we went down to our seats to talk with our season ticket holder buddies (they sit in front of us) to discuss the MNF game against the 49er's.  It's going to be two days before Halloween and we plan on dressing up.  Anyway, as we left the area and made it back towards the suit, there were like a million people in the concession area so in his usual fashion, Sweetheart grabbed my hand and plowed the way.

This is all I saw as I made it through the crowd:

I saw a guy wearing a Doug Flutie jersey and tried to get a picture but I was literally being pulled through the crowd:

Oh and I saw these guy wearing cool buffalo hats:

Back to the suite.  This is the bathroom.  It's cardinal RED with a soft white light that makes it feel like you're in the bathroom of a strip club.  I'm just saying...

The Suite:

Oh, and this was one of my gifts:

Next game is against the Vikings.

GO BIG RED!

Game 5 - Cards vs. Dolphins

Wow, what a game~!  The Dolphins dominated the game.  A touchdown by the Cardinals with 29 seconds left on the clock tied the score and put the game in overtime.  It was stressful to say the least!   But the Cardinals were victorious in the end and move on to a 4-0 record. 

The Dolphins during pre-game practice: 

By the way #22 Reggie Bush was not on the field during practice so we thought he wasn't going to play...but he did......

I've said it a million times before, this is my favorite:

Big Red doing his thing....he's AWESOME!

There's Reggie Bush #22, I caught him as he was leaving the stadium at the end of the game.

So 4-0, not too bad.  Our next home game is on October 14th against the Bills.  This Thursday, however, the Cardinals play the Rams.

Let's go CARDS!
