I just can't see them lasting in Phoenix much longer.

I think that the Cards are on the verge of a major breakout. They have a great WR corps, a fine young RB in Arrington, a good O line, and an emerging D. They should win the NFC West this year. If they start to perform, they could probably arrange some sort of new stadium deal.

As for where they could move... Maybe Portland, Oregon or Omaha, Nebraska. Nebraskans love their college football... maybe they could support a pro team.

EDIT: Adding San Antonio to my list of possible Cardinals destinations.

I am surprised no one has poked alot of fun at this city for having a nfl quality stadium with no team. A dome that was paid for by our taxes and was not used often for football. When the spurs played there, they only used half of the dome. Since they spurs have a new arena the dome is hardly used

Isn't San Antonio Texans country? Would they support a new team?

San antonio supports both the texans and the cowboys. more the cowboys then the texans. S A has been looking for its own nfl team for a while but not under these circumstances. This city will support a major franchise if we get one. Its funny they almost sell out the dome for preseason games they have had in the dome the past few years, dont see why, if they get a team, they couldnt sell it out

Is FedEx Field all individual seats?

I believe all NFL stadiums are individual seaters... Giants Stadium is (and so will the New Giants Stadium).

What about a pro football team for the state of AR...

Beats NEBRASKA

USC doesn't sell out its games? I knew they weren't very well attended once upon a time, but after a couple of national championships?

Nope. Only about 90% capacity is what I read.

I would have thought they would sell out every week and it would be an extremely tough ticket (I know that OSU is a very tough ticket at about 105,000 per game and I expect it is the same at Michigan with 111,000). But I guess having the 8th highest average home attendance at > 85,000 per game is nothing to sneeze at. It's a pretty damn huge stadium at 92,000 capacity.

Where have you been? They're moving into a new stadium NEXT YEAR.

And perfect timing too, I might add...

Then I see no way the Cards move from Az.

I have recently been reading the news stories about where the saints will play, and am now disgusted by a lot of reporters. Wtf man the city of san antonio is not trying to steal the saints The city has opened the doors for more then just the football team, it distrubs me these so called reporters refer to this city as vultures circling the scene. When in actuality the city has done nothing but offer the team a temporary home until their regular home is available and safe for them to return. Has this insanity gotten so far out of minds realms that all these genusis's that are out there to report the news in a non biased fashion have no clue that what they are actually doing is trying to create an uproar?
