Phoenix:

Arizona Cardinals (NFL)
Arizona Diamondbacks (MLB)
Phoenix Suns (NBA)
Phoenix Mercury (WNBA)
Phoenix Coyotes (NHL)

In the past few years the metro has lost:
Phoenix Roadrunners (ECHL)
Arizona Sting (NLL)
The Golden League baseball teams that were in the metro

They are trying to get the IBL to stick here - in 2007 the Phoenix Flame played a full season before disolving in 2008 ...... in 2009 both the new Arizona Flame and Phoenix Red Rocks Raptors will play a handfull of games trying to get it to work

Other notable sporting events are as follows:
Spring Training
AZ Fall League Baseball
2 Annual Nascar Races
Fiesta Bowl
FBR/Phoenix Open (massive golf event/party)

Live racing seasons are held for horses at Turf Paradise and dogs at Phoenix Greyhound Park

there are also independent race tracks, drag strips, etc if racing is your thing
