The Cardinal Chronicle

- - - - - From February to July in 1997, this website presented a weekly series that looked back to the most memorable (and most forgettable) days in history of the Arizona Cardinals. These glances traced the not-so-glorious history of the NFL's oldest franchise from its humble beginnings a century ago, through its two NFL Championships, and followed its travels from Chicago, to St. Louis, and finally to Arizona. Now, all twenty-six editions are again available for your reading, listed below in chronological order. I hope you enjoy reliving those days of old when players wore leather helmets, when the gridiron was made of mud, and when the Cardinals were actually any good.
