All Hail The .500 Buzzsaw
If you'll allow us this quick run of self-indulgent postings, we can't quite get over the image of Peter King proclaiming that The Buzzsaw That Is The Arizona Cardinals would make the playoffs. It was like watching someone speak in tongues on national television, albeit with more field hockey refere...
There Goes A.B., Trying To Deny It Again
We know we should enjoy those text messages that are put on the scoreboard during baseball games these days — it's fan participation, after all — but inevitably they just seem like the screechings of teenagers, using a language we cannot understand. But we dont' take them seriously. But then again: ...
That Highly Successful Buzzsaw
We always get a kick out of these occasional "Best Sports Franchises" studies. ESPN does them, The Sporting News has some, we think even MTV did them once. We like them because they inevitably have our Buzzsaw near the bottom of the list. Sometimes even at the very bottom....
One Year Since Pure Bliss
Unsilent's gonna throw up a World Series post in a few minutes, but we absolutely could not let the day pass without commemorating the year anniversary of the St. Louis Cardinals winning the World Series. We were up until 5 a.m. that night and still haven't quite come to terms with what happened. B...
Chargers Flee Fire For Dry Heat
If anyone out there is being affected by the fires in Southern California — we're sure we have tons of Malibu readers, of course — we hope you're finding, you know, some cool land. And we hope you're better off than the Chargers, who might have to play this Sunday's game in the Buzzsaw's reject stad...
Spiraling Down The Coaching Abyss
We remember, a few years ago, when Roy Williams (the coach, not the pizza delivery boy) left Kansas to coach North Carolina. That led to a cascade of coaching changes, with Bill Self at Kansas, Bruce Weber at Illinois and Chris Lowery at Southern Illinois. Four quality coaches, four quality programs...
Tony LaRussa Will Drive The Cardinals Car Again
Looks like the police officers of Jupiter, Fla., might have some more reasons to pose for pictures next spring: Tony LaRussa is returning as manager of the Cardinals....
To The Buzzsaw Rescue ... Vinny!
The locker room of The Buzzsaw That Is The Arizona Cardinals is looking like it might be turning a little bit more funky: The jam master that is Vinny might be back in town....
It's Quite The Big Event When Matt Leinart Shows Up
Some fans of The Buzzsaw That Is The Arizona Cardinals have had some concern that quarterback (for now) Kurt Warner has been spending too much time partaking in matters of social interaction, and not enough time studying film. And now we're starting to worry he's showing up at events just to get out...
Cardinals Fire GM Walt Jocketty
On the day the Chicago Cubs begin their quest for their first World Series championship in 100 years, the rival St. Louis Cardinals ... have fired their general manager....
Leinart Has A Hard Time Handling His "Booze"
We were curious how Matt Leinart would handle his late-night Sauvignon Blanc confession to Michael Silver that he doesn't like being switched in and out of his starting job in Arizona. He took a different tack than we might have....
Please, Please Be Quiet, Matt
We're far enough away from Arizona not to necessarily have our finger on the pulse of as many issues involving the Buzzsaw that we'd like, but we were heartened to see Matt Leinart totally comfortable with the job-sharing arrangement with Kurt Warner. He seemed happy, anyway, until Yahoo's Michael S...
The Buzzsaw That Is Ken Whisenhunt
Because we can't exactly have you thinking we're unaware of what went on at the Pink Taco on Sunday ... a late night reminder after one of the most exciting sports days we can remember. And that is counting Buffalo. We'll talk tomorrow....
Matt Leinart Is Watching One Exciting Game
Steelers 7, Cardinals 7 — Coach Ken Whisenhunt, sure enough, found a time to use Kurt Warner in the game, which happened to be the fourth drive of the game, and he's been in ever since. His touchdown to Jeremy Urban tied the game. Now, if Warner is the best quarterback to run the 2-minute-drill, no-...
