Bill Bidwell and Dennis Green

I wanted to share a little story about Bill Bidwell.

 

When I was living in Tempe, Arizona I lived about 1 mile from the Cardinals headquarters.

 

One day I was in the post office, when a man came shuffling in by himself. I was standing in a long line to get to the postal clerk and I watched as Bidwell walked in and went to a P.O. Box. He opened the box, sorted the mail and then walked out and got into a modest car and drove off.

 

The funny thing to me is, most people in line looked at him when he walked in, but no one seemed to notice who he was and no one said anything to him. He didn't make some "grand entrance".

 

If you contrast that with some other NFL owners, who have an ego the size of a blimp, it was really cool. He was just a regular guy going about his regular business.

 

I was wanted to give some props to Dennis Green because he did build the Cardinals team. At least most of their biggest stars are from his tenure. I posted this before, I thought it got lost in the shuffle.
