Good idea not to sit down the first base line on those occasions though.
Yeah it's always an exaggeration, people get obnoxious when they're visiting an opposing stadium but I'll admit it's been fun to see them walk away disappointed as the d'baks let them have it. The team has been close to 40,000 in attendance on Saturday games as of late. So if there actually were more opposing team fans for the cubs or dodgers we'd need at least 80,000 seats.

Something I've personally noticed is that a lot of these Dodger/Cubs fans filling Chase field root and cheer on the Dbacks when their team isn't in town. I'm friends with two such individuals who only put on the rival gear when going to watch their team.

I am one of those as well. My team didn't play here this year but I attended 5 Dbacks games, wearing Dbacks gear and cheering them on. Also watched probably 60 Dbacks games on TV through the year too.

Wish he'd just retire, it's obvious he's not even trying anymore. Granted he's use to playing LT and now playing RT but still no excuse.

For once I can say Palmer actually played pretty good considering the horrible Oline in front of him. We couldnt even handle a 3 man rush. BA needs to give up the play calls,the challenge cost us a time out which was clearly a non catch. Then going for it on 4th - 1 where he should've just kicked a field goal,put points on the board and try an on side kick but typical we end up with nothing. If it wasn't for JJ & Fitz this game would've been over by half time. Dallas fell flat in the 1st qtr but made adjustments,something we can never seem to be able to do. I guess the only bright side is we host the 9ers next week who are 0-3 but I still wouldn't consider this an easy win,not the way we're playing.

He never played RT before. I would move him back to LT. The back up tackles probably played the majority of their careers at RT. Won't happen because it would show Arians was wrong.

See, again, Arizona sense of humour ;-) I would of course be respectful, and not go 137.6 decibels on y'all. I'll save that for when I fly back home to see a game a CLink ;-) (whenever I am rich, I mean).

Maybe I really SHOULD get tickets to see my Seahawks whoop the cardinals at their home base in November. I'd give anything to see the Hawks again! It's been since 2006 for me. Sounds like we will win. I'd like that.

Tip of the day: go root for your crap team in your crap city of Seattle in the crap state of Washington.

Hey man no State wars, Washington is awesome and I miss it. But I'll be moving to YOUR neck of the woods in 2 weeks, so that can't be helped.

And the Seahawks won a superbowl and have been 3 times in recent years. What have the Cardinals done? Plus why is it a cardinal? Those birds are tiny.
