First, the Cardinals pulled off an improbable victory over the Seattle Seahawks on the road. In the game, receiver Larry Fitzgerald led the Cardinals with four catches for 48 yards and a touchdown. Notably, as he’s done for much of his career; Fitzgerald caught those passes from a back-up quarterback with starter Kyler Murray on the mend.
Then following the game, Fitzgerald had a little fun with a reporter. While some readers may not know, Larry Fitzgerald Sr. has been a media member for a long time. However on this Sunday afternoon, he fell prey to a rookie mistake. Indeed, he left on his phone so it could go off during the younger Fitzgerald’s postgame interview.
Larry Fitzgerald to a reporter whose phone went off during his interview: “Can we get some professionalism, please?”
The reporter was his dad.

Still I remember when Fitzgerald was up for the Heisman Trophy at Pittsburgh, and it seems like yesterday. Flash forward to all these years later, and he’s 36-years old and has 1374 catches.
No matter how much longer Fitzgerald decides to play, we should all enjoy it. He makes the game better, and even in a season where the Cardinals are playing out the string like they have often done in his tenure; he found a way to make some people smile about sports.
That’s what Get More Sports is all about.
