The NFL's perenial last place team, the Cardinals are a team with a long history, and one that unfortunately includes mostly losing. Established in 1920 as the Chicago Cardinals, they always played second fiddle to the crosstown Bears in the league's early days. The Cardinals generally struggled in their early years, except for a surprising championship in 1925. The team won an NFL championship in 1947 against the Eagles for their only title. They lost the rematch in the 1948 title game, in a low scoring 7-0 matchup. In 1960, the team moved to St. Louis, which did little to change their fortunes. The team had its best years in franchise history in the mid-70s with Jim Hart under center, achieving 3 straight playoff berths from 1974-76. The team also had a playoff berth in the strike shortened 1982 season. However, with the team still a poor franchise and, with St. Louis refusing to pay for a new stadium, the team moved to Phoenix for the 1988 season, first calling themselves the Phoenix Cardinals, then switching to the name Arizona Cardinals in 1994. The team failed to post a .500 season from 1985-97, but finally broke through with a playoff berth in 1998, their most recent postseason apperance. That year, the team went 9-7 and pulled off a 1st round upset of the Cowboys. Since then, the team has returned to its losing ways. However, they are currently building a good offense and their might be hope on the horizon for this team.
"The Arizona Cardinals have pulled up a gigantic playoff upset! In their first postseason apperance in 16 years, the defeat Dallas and are moving on to the next round."

Get the Arizona Cardinals mug.The sexual act involving 5 midgets and a woman of obese nature. The midgets use a wire and tie it to the chimney. The other side of the wire is tied around the neck of the obese woman. While taking turns, each midget uses a clothes hanger to slide down the wire, anally penetrating the inner wall of the magestic sactum known as the clitoris. The midgets then thrust their penises into each other's assholes, forming a human train.

Get the Arizona mug.A city that is about 15 miles east of Phoenix. It's population is over 430,000 people making it the 3rd largest city in Arizona, and 38th largest city in America. It was founded as a Mormon colony in the 1870's, and since then even though the Mormon percentage of the population has decreased, they still rule the city. In the 1920's the Mormons built a temple in downtown. Now about 1/4 of Mesa is ghetto. About 1/5 of the people in Mesa are Mormons. Mesa is home to two high schools that hate each other's guts: Westwood, and Mountain View. Mesa is a city that seems like it NEVER ENDS! Its boundaries extend well into the deadly deserts of Arizona even though the city borders other suburbs at almost every side; the city just hasnt built in these desert areas. Yes while only 1/5 of Mesa is Mormon, they still run the entire city. Their little temple will still probably be around even if the permit for it doesnt exist or it expires BECAUSE MORMONS RUN THE ENTIRE CITY!!! In West Mesa you find one of two parts of Mesa's ghetto. But West Mesa is more ghetto than South Mesa. There are other small ghetto neighborhoods around Mesa, but the center of Mesa's ghetto is in the southwestern part of Downtown. Much of Mesa is in the Arizona Legislative District 18. Yes Mesa does have a bunch of check cash places. Yes there are PLENTY of convenience shops like Circle K around Mesa. Mesa is like the ultimate Suburbia that people think of in this modern world.
UD requires an example about Mesa Arizona so I guess this will be the example.
Person 1: "HEY LETS GO TO MESA ARIZONA!!!"
Person 3: "OK LETS GO!!!"
Person 2: "I wanna go too! D:
