As the air turns to Autumn my mind turns to nostalgia. The teams of years gone by. The players, the fans in the stands, the sound of the roar from Clark echoing through the canyons of downtown. There were times of joy, despair, jubilation, and confetti below...
This week, Brian and Kyle are joined by guest Kareem Haq. The three started with recent promotion, injury and award news across the system. Most of this extended session was spent discussing Cardinals draft picks from rounds 8-20 this year. Not surprisingly, some...
