Where the fuck did you go Charles..? ROTB has officially gone to hell.. This loss tonight was ugly and we've established that. Besides the few random blips from the ROTB originals, this site has turned into regurgitated bullshit you hear on any sports radio show local to the valley. Mother F#%$^@# professing it as their own. Now we're subjected to half witted quirps tagging snapshots, "caption this sentence" and pretend they are funny??? If I laughed half as hard at the caption's of snapshots on this website than the attempt to write an article outside the 8th grade learning curve, I'd be happy, yet unfortunately this is yet to happen since we are under a new regime.  ROTB's shit is boring! Am I really longing for the Longwind, eh em, I mean Hawkwind days?.?.? Yeah I still love you Hawk... The objective, informative information we used to gather from ROTB has turned into Bill Schwarstki's super fans, and I think you are choking on the kielbasa! This Vanilla affirmation of each other's revelations regarding the Cards has drawn weary my friends, and lets start telling it like it is!   Calling all Cards fans, you rock that Boldin and Fitz Jersey for a reason! You like being the whipping boy of the NFL and you live for the conversation of justifying your teams validity come Monday morning. True Cards fans remember the harder days and are ok with that. It's as Al Pacino said in "Two for the Money" I play to lose! I don't know if it gives us credit when we finally do turn the corner, but we're proud of it either way. Can we please get something from ROTB that we don't get elsewhere??? Just saying... BORING!!!!

Tyler Palko played far better than Brian St. Pierre or Matt Leinart in last week's preseason game, but how many more preseason performances like last week would it take to earn a legitimate shot at the #3 or even the #2 spot?

Have we gotten anywhere with our official ROTB merchandise? I could put together the Prototype for "WWWD" what would Warner Do? shirt. I also thought we could have one that said "The Wonderful Whiz of AZ" or "In Whiz We Trust". Either way we all had some good ideas but we need to get cracking on it because Camp is right around the corner and we should all be rocking the shirts up in Flag. Let me know what was decided and who we are going to go through for the shirts. I think that website "Cafepress" is probably the best and easiest move.

Any new ideas? Please share...

to a second round pick. Are they serious??? What the crap Cards? Three time pro-bowler, coming off his third pro-bowl appearance last season and you'll give him up for a second round draft pick? This is major B.S.!

There's been some good questions check it out.

• At what approximate time will each round play out in the draft?
• Assuming the Cardinals stick with the 31st pick only, about what time can we expect them on the boards day 1 and also day 2?
• Where is your favorite place to go for the draft day party here in AZ?

I did some generic searches on the web but could not find all the info I wanted and have had at least 4 other people ask these exact same questions to me. Feel free to post any other related topics about the draft you may have on this link.

I don't have the best understanding of how the salary cap will work in 2010 but if it means that teams can just load up with no repercussion, that’s lame! Say goodbye to each year having new, fresh team’s breakout in the playoffs. No more nail biting playoffs just the same "Bills vs. Cowboys" matchup of the early to mid 90's. I really hate this idea and I think it will lead to more inflated egos by players and teams a la “The Yankees” buying their way to repeat appearances. I like seeing guys take pay cuts to play with each other because then it shows me they don’t just care about their paycheck rather they actually just want to win as a team. Just my two cents, what do you think? Can someone clarify how the uncapped year is supposed to work?

Considering news is a little slow with off-season and no action in free agency, I thought I would post this question to our Revenge of the Birds faithful. Who? Why? When? There doesn't have to be any team allegiance on this one just be prepared to back it up if it is the likes of T.O. or Andre Rison etc.

I have brought the idea up to CG and personally would love to rock some Revenge of the Birds gear around Phoenix and at a game or two next year. It would be great advertising for the site and is something we could show homage for considering we have all helped ROTB become great. So here is my offer, I have a guy who did some shirts for a couple teams of mine who could probably hook them up if we had the design for about 12-15 dollars apiece. Would anyone else be interested in purchasing these? I also fully plan on attending Summer Camp in Flag and would like to rock the gear up there. With all the sports media swarming, it couldn’t hurt traffic. If this is totally lame just disregard but I think it would be pretty cool to add to the collection of Cards gear. Obviously we would have a vote on what the final product would look like and maybe even have everyone who is interested submit a concept and pick the best one.

Update: We have talked to the networks 'higher-ups' and it is ok with SBNation. We just can't use the Arizona Cardinals logo. Like Hawk suggested, www.cafepress.com is very useful and is free. We can create custom items for sale and make money off of them for the site. They also provide the shopping page for RotB. Of course the money would go towards giveaways and prizes. So here's the deal. I don't want to come up with the design on my own. So this post will be used as a thread for ideas, pics, or any other suggestions. If you have any questions email me, Hawk or CG. (Boog I know you have a friend who can do it so if you think that it would be better, let me know.)

I was working on the RotB standard logo to upload to CafePress and stumbled upon a limitation on my end:  I'm software disadvantaged for graphics.  The problem is the RotB logo is small and upon enlargement turns into a pixelated POS.  Ideally the logo should look clean as a 12" x 12" graphic so it looks good on a shirt.  I had erased the two cardinals under "Birds" and added a .com of similar type.  If someone with better software can tackle that "concept" and if anyone cares to present some other spinoff designs on the RotB logo, please post them in the thread or e-mail to one of us (CG, Andrew or myself).

I found a better site then cafepress. You can customize the products more for about the same price. Here is an example of just a text-only shirt. I used Boogatts idea of "Dont Flock with Us!" but added a "Dont Respect us?" to go in the front. We can always add more to them but this is just how they could come out.
