Arizona Cardinal head coach Ken Whisenhunt is trying to manufacture bulletin board material.   In the inner circles of Cardinal football there’s talk that Whisenhunt was upset that McCarthy and the Packers left their starters in for the majority of their regular season finale matchup.  One source close to the coach is quoted as saying “Yeah, coach was really pissed.  He said McCarthy was really poopy.  That he was a big meanie leaving in the first stringers, and the only reason he did it was to hurt our feelings.  He’s so mad he’s considering  not sending McCarthy that package of pink himalayan bath salts he bought for him at Trader Joe’s after their last meeting.”

Seriously? He’s mad the Packers left in their starters for most of the game?

If that’s true, Coach Ken needs to first throw away the pink salt.  Or give it to me so I can use to melt all the friggin’ snow I had to shovel off my sidewalk today.  And then he needs to grow a pair.

Over in Titletown we’re handling things a little differently.  Where normally ads go in the papers and throughout the local media that snow shovelers are needed for the Lambeau Field stands for upcoming home games, the ads this week are for fluffers.  You know, the bitches that keep the guys hard and ready for action.

After bending the girls from Arizona over during the preseason and then again last week, coach McCarthy is worried about his team going soft before the weekend’s wildcard playoff game. He wants to make sure they stay rough and ready.

Having had balls rammed down their throats (and everywhere else, frankly) last week, Arizona is predictably loose coming into the playoffs.  They’re hoping that age-old teabagging remedy will help them feel better going into next week, and it might work.  Feels awesome to me, anyway.  But Cardinal mindset notwithstanding, Coach McCarthy plans to just keep on a pushin’ it, keeping the Packer defense stout and stiff and the offense going deep every chance they get.

While some think that Arizona was just lying down for the Packers last week and will at least scratch and claw a little harder this weekend, I think the Cardinals have no idea the Packer load that’s coming their way, and it’s totally gonna blow up in their faces.
