Fitz Sr. “Surprised”, Another WR for Cardinals? Purdy v Purdy, Chandler Coach…

Larry Fitzgerald Sr. was on the other end of the line with me on Thursday morning. A day earlier his son put pen to paper to stay with the Cardinals for another season. Was he surprised that his son just can’t quit playing ball? “I have to say, yes”.
Ironically, Fitz Sr. believes that a recent event on the golf course led to his son’s final decision to keep on playing. Listen here

Yes, the team still plays 57 miles from my house and hundreds of thousands of others in the SE Valley. Just because the team is winning doesn’t mean that empty seats can be filled. The location is a problem except for those who live 15 miles or less from the facility. Stop blaming the fans for not showing up when it’s a haul for many to get to the west side…
