Surprising no one, really, Arizona Cardinals QB Kurt Warner hangs it up after being one of the most prolific passers of his era.
Warner took two franchises, the St. Louis rams and the Arizona Cardinals, and put them on the map- picking up a Super Bowl championships along the way.
The biggest question now is: Is the 2-time MVP a Hall of Fame quarterback...?
"Obviously, it's been 12 unbelievable years, some of the best years of my life," Warner said at his press conference. "But I want everybody to know that I'm just as excited about the next 12, that I'm excited about what lies in front of me. I'm excited about spending more time with my family, and seeing what God's going to do next."
Its been a great run for the former Hy-Vee grocery bagger, Iowa Barnstormer, and Amsterdam Admiral.He had been voted to five Pro Bowls and is the second quarterback to throw more than 100 touchdown passes for two NFL franchises.

Warner had a great career in the NFL. It would have been better if he had started his first game at age 22 or so, instead of age 28. I hope he enters the Hall of Fame one day.
But, remember what his time in the Arena League and NFL Europe gave him... the ability to process the game faster than a lot of quarterbacks. Had he not been there, things might have been different...
