Five Cardinals Among Those at Celebrity Flag Football Challenge

Though it may not steal much attention from the Super Bowl, the NFL's Celebrity Flag Football Challenge 2008 next should draw a crowd to see some current and former players (and a pair of non-pro athletes) play a friendly -- though you can be sure it will be competitive -- game of flag football.
