- The joke's on Hall Kent Somers' Cardinals Blog | Arizona Republic Arizona Cardinals update: Heard a great anecdote this afternoon about a practical joke coaches played on rookie QB Max Hall Thursday night against the Redskins. Hall played well and when he left the game for good, he did a sideline interview with FOXAZ's Jody Jackson.

Just as important, he avoided the interceptions that had coaches clenching their teeth in the previous three exhibition games. Whitehurst's final exhibition game was a bookend performance that was every bit as good as his first game.2. The runnin...
