A Pictorial Look at Your NFC Champion Arizona Cardinals

by Hawkwind on Jan 19, 2009 8:18 AM MST

I could sit here all day and try to put in words how it feels right now to be Champions of the NFC and Super Bowl bound, but I'm confident that I wouldn't do it justice. So, with that being said, just try to soak in the absolute joy that you see it the pictures below (pics are from the teams official site, azcentral.com and eastvalley tribune.com).

After looking through a ton of photos, I'm left with this thought guys: Don't take the next two weeks for granted. Enjoy the ride, soak it all in and have fun. We'll start breaking down the match-up between the Cardinals and Steelers later this week but for now, enjoy telling all the haters, "I TOLD YOU SO!!!!."

I love the picture of Smith.

Lots of emotion there.

Smith...

Yeah, that article about his mother’s premonition on azcardinals.com was pretty touching. I couldn’t be happier for all of the team, they have earned this. Good job guys!

I was watching the ESPN Road To The Superbowl esque Championship pregame build up hubbub and started getting a little teary eyed. I believe it was at that moment that I knew we were going to win that game and go to the Superbowl.

P.S. To all of the devout ROTB’s. I know I talk a lot of shit and say a some things that are just plane uncalled for. I hope you guys all realize that it is all in fun.

Smith's Mom

That was an amazing story. Before the game, I took it to mean that the Cards were going to lose, since there was no mention of the Super Bowl.

Very cool story.

It has finally hit me

the Cardinals are going to the effing Super Bowl. Holy shit…(pardon my French)
I only wish my dad was alive to see this.

One thing..

Not trying to spoil the fun but I dont see Anquan in any pics. I also heard he did not celebrate with the team. We’ll touch base with this later but just strikes me as odd. It does feel good to be champs of something though. And T Smith said his mom said we would later go on to win the BIG GAME.

Hey, hey, hey hey hey, watch the language, ok? I have a family.

Is this really happening?

I still can’t believe it. I gave them more of a chance then anyone else but I still can’t fully believe it. Are we really in the FREAKIN SUPERBOWL!?!?!? :)

Apparently Vegas isn’t believing in us either. We’re already 6 and a half point underdogs but you can prove em wrong for free at at http://www.centsports.com/?opcode=285692 and make em pay for underrating our cards!! hehe
