In The Zone Hello everyone and welcome to the first installment of “In The Zone”. This will be a column that I will release every few months or weeks depending on the news and give you the low down on all UL recruiting, as well as things we would not normally tweet out. So with…
Panic Time? Ok let me start of by saying im in no way makiing any kind of excuse for what I seen out there on the floor last night at Providence. Last night we looked awful bad coaching and no effort, there is plenty of blame to go around. I would not place it on Coaches or…
“Short Memory” Ok Cards fans lets not downplay the happenings of this past week, its been rough. First the football team put on a sub par performance in the Belk Bowl only to give us hope and lose it in the end. Then…
No Shot Tomorrow The University of Louisville will roll into Rupp Arena to play the mighty Kentucky Wildcats. But im sorry Cards fans we have no shot and Uk fans can rest easy knowing that it’s just little ol UL they play tomorrow. I mean we have Uk friends that refuse to watch the game with us…
Teddy Bridgewater “Louisville’s Lead Man” To get the full effect of this blog please go down and begin playing the first video and read while its playing (sets the mood)…………………………………… Ok now that you have done that let’s get this blog going
Who’s Next? Currently The University Of Louisville and North Carolina are tied at 63 for the amount of 1,000 point scorers. When I started to think about it, I wanted to know if we had anyone on the current team even close. I called the Sports Information Department to find out. I had thought…
Whats Going On? OK, I come to you today after the debacle in Milwaukee (almost rhymed) yesterday afternoon. This season has most of CardNation wondering what’s going on like Peyton above. An 18-2 start sent most of CardNation into the feeling we had turned things around finally, we were on the right track, yeah!…
Imma Need CardNation To Do Better (Title inspired by Wes Brown) For some people CardNation is just a catchy little saying, or a way to hashtag a twitter comment or just words on a screen. For me, I am proud to be a member of CardNation. As a former student-athlete there,as a fan and…
Blessings As I sit down to write this post I’m amazed at what we have done at CardinalSportsZone.com (follow us on twitter too @CardSportsZone) and i just can’t believe how far we have come in such a short time. In July me and steve toyed with the idea of starting our own UofL sports site. Since the…
Coaching Trail Ok so today i thought i would talk about our great and not so great coaches in the time that i have watched UL football, which was since i was a kid. 6 coaches have come and five have gone. The reasons why the others have left are mostly because they have used the University of…
Russ Smith????? As me and my brother Joey and my friend Chris were hanging out this summer, we started to realize that both Basketball and Football season were right around the corner. This was the football season we had been waiting on for 4 seasons after suffering thru Krags tenure and then Charlies strong first year….
What The Rivalry Means To Me…. What the rivalry means to me….cant be just summed up. My hatred for the University of Kentucky goes back to when I was just a little boy. My parents allowed me to choose which team I wanted to represent. My dad was born in Indiana so Hoosier hysteria ran rampantly thru his…
Jeff Goodman, Dick Vitale,John Calipari and…..Me? What do we all have in common? We have all been critical of the University of Louisville this season. Maybe its Jeff Goodman’s blatant barbs constantly thrown our way. Or it could be Dick Vitale’s constant need to mention UK every 5 seconds during a UL game and predict impending…
My First Blog As I post the first blog for the website from my brand new Keyboard that my mom got me for Christmas, (pictured left) I think back to the year in UL sports and one thing really sticks to my mind. We should get ready for a ride. With our Football team seemingly on…
I wish I knew how many games I attended at the “world famous” Freedom Hall. Two days before the final game against Syracuse 2 seasons ago, I think it may be where my “blog” career started. I had so many emotions about Freedom Hall, and I was sad that its time was coming to an…
I haven’t blogged in a while, so I figured I would talk about my time at UofL in regards to the women’s basketball team. My first year at UofL was 2004-2005. I got a call from my high school basketball coach saying that the men’s team were needing practice players. Of course I loved the sound…
This blog should be pretty easy for me to write. I have had so much fun with this website and since we started with the twitter name, so I figured I would just talk about that. By the way, Jeremy loves the “It’s a Movement” slogan, so he gets credit for that title. We started the…
That whole blog you see posted below this one, well that was what I had originally written for this “what it means to me” blog. Then I realized, those are pretty much just game summaries. They aren’t really saying what this game really meas to me. I didn’t want to just delete them, so I just bumped…
