Mike Leach now Proves to Know Craig James is a Douche
First Leach knew Craig James killed 5 hookers at SMU, and now he knows Craig James is a certified douche. Luckily, Mike Leach didn't have to spread these reputation-damaging facts while Craig James attempted a serious run for Texas politics. It would be unpleasant of someone to get another man publicly banished from something he loved with exaggerated facts. [Follow me @TravisHouser]

Cardinals to Calais Campbell: ‘Oui’ Are Family
That’s a lot of euros for Calais – the player, not the ferry port in Northern France.
The Arizona Cardinals continue to clear salary cap space while locking in their key players with the signing of defensive end Calais Campbell to a five-year, $55 million contract. While Campbell will earn approximately $10.7 million in 2012 – that’s 8,215,034 euros to you and me – it will...

Draft Grades: Arizona Cardinals
This was a bold draft for the Arizona Cardinals, who acted more like a team on the verge of contention than one in rebuilding mode. It’s a fine strategy if Kevin Kolb works out, but if their quarterback situation remains a question mark, this could set them back.
Michael Floyd was a luxury pick, but does give Larry Fitzgerald the support he needs. It also shifts Early Doucet...

Lindley adds intrigue to Cardinals' QB situation
TEMPE, Ariz. -- After just one day of rookie mini-camp, Cardinals quarterbacks coach John McNulty cant say how his team's sixth-round draft pick, quarterback Ryan Lindley, might project in the NFL.
He doesn't know if Lindley will adjust to the speed of the pro game. He doesn't know if the San Diego State product will pick up the offense well enough. And he can't...

And if you did get Fitz, you werent disappointed. The former Pitt star racked up over 1,400 yards and eight touchdowns, elite numbers for a WR1.
But after Beanie Wells went down, the Arizona Cardinals...

How many holes do the Arizona Cardinals have left to fill?
The Arizona Cardinals made a big splash in the draft by grabbing the hyper-talented WR from Notre Dame Michael Floyd.
Not only should he succeed but in a Boldin sort of way he instantly makes Larry Fitzgerald that much better.
