The Cardinals have been battling it out with the Cincinnati Bengals for worst team in the NFL for the last 10 years (and it looks like the "Bungles" have given up the fight, in favor of playoff contention). Arizona has the worst record in the NFL since the beginning of last year's regular season.

News and Notes

The University has decided to standardize the image of the school's tiger mascot by creating a new set of graphics designed for athletics.The "kit of parts" that comprises the new graphics system includes four different images of the traditional tiger as well as a bold new "P". Both the tiger and the "P" will be combined in various forms in shades of orange and black.While the Princeton tiger, over a century old, was the first sports mascot of its time in higher education, the University had never established one standard image for the tiger.The effort to come up with a graphic identity began in February 2004, when Princeton formed a committee to create the system that included development, athletics, campus life, public affairs, and communications representatives of the University.The committee chose international design firm Pentagram to create the actual graphics.
