The problem with the Cardinals is at the ownership level. No player or coach can fix whats wrong with that organization.

The way the NFL works, it doesn't really matter to the Bidwells if they win or lose. They make money either way.

In most cities, bad ownership usually doesn't last more than a human lifetime. But with the Cardinals, there always seems to be another Bidwell ready to maintain the tradition.

I think they are actually improving now though. In terms of bad organizations, they are now better than the Lions and Raiders.

Funny article. Well done. But to be serious for a moment, this is the year they actually make some noise. The division is still soft overall, and they've had several good drafts in a row now. Laugh if you want, the Cards will go 10-6 this year despite the Bidwell curse.
