While watching the Cardinals’ Hard Knocks series with keen interest, I am finding myself getting more and more emotional as the episodes go by. When Kliff Kingsbury reminds us, typically after tough losses like the Cardinals’ most recent 19-16 OT loss to the Bucs this past Christmas night, that “there are great leaders in that locker room”, this HBO documentary, providing fans with a privileged glimpse into the Cardinals’ facilities and homes, vividly confirms Kliff’s assertion.
When we see how much blood, sweat and tears the leaders on this Cardinals team continue to exert, each loss feels all the more painful.
