 Well folks its come down to this… Our one and only nationally known sports star is THE FRANCHISE, Matt Cassel. Yep. Oh sure, we still have George Brett, Len Dawson and Tom Watson. However in the last say 20 years, the pickings have been slim, very slim. You can argue Priest Holmes, Trent Green and surely Derrick Thomas and Neil Smith. Hell, Derrick and Neil even had a national TV commercial. Remember that one? But really, the only real national, household name was Tony G! And no, I didn’t forget the Royals Mike Sweeney or Zack Grienke. Trust me, outside of big time baseball fans and KC folks, they were not well known at all. No TV spots. No late night TV shows. I know Dante Hall was on Letterman once, but hell, I did Entertainment Tonight four times and that’s just not enough. So the name people know, the name that is most connected to Kansas City Sports today – I repeat – is The Franchise Matt Cassel! And after the Chiefs win the West and hopefully one play off game at home, then maybe Jamaal Charles, Todd Haley, Tamba Hali and even Dwayne Bowe will have a shot. But not yet. So get ready for the ad nauseam ESPN shots of Matt Cassel throwing 2, 3, maybe 4 touchdown passes to receivers against the Bills Sunday. Yeah baby, it’s show time with Chris Collinsworth! And it’s all about Matt and the great game he will have Sunday. Likely his first 300 yards throwing this season. His good passer rating of 92 will cross over to 100. In fact, his last three games are all over 100. Are you excited? Are we blessed to have this handsome, tall, talented quarterback lead us into the postseason? Sure we are. Is he turning out to be great? He’s climbing up that ladder to elite quarterback status with Manning and Brady. And the cool thing is, he’s ours. |

I would toss Handsome Harley Race into that mix, back in the days when he was based in Kansas City. If Cassel is ever a 7-Time World Champion, then maybe his name can be implicated in the same sentence with King Harley.

did you see that a drug smuggler was caught betting against his own filly. I didn’t think that was wrong but there you go! Still they only got 500 quid!

Tough choice Sunday…watch Wonderland reruns or the updated version, arrowhead 2010?
Trick or treat or tarantism?
Whizzo, the 0-6 Bills or ca$$el – three clowns, no waiting – who’ll prove bigger/winner Sunday?
Could spend some Torey Time ‘stead; like pioli, TT has a puppet… Ol’ Gus, who threw a better pass the other stringed warrior & isn’t as big an dummy nor in need as much coaching, camera.
Decisions, decisions… Hmm.
Unconvinced the Bills will lose – even ‘if’ aft the fact, chiefs will have yet to win a game…

Is he your cousin?

Good point, I never thought about it, but we have no stars.

You and Nick Wright must eat together. You are both over amped on the Chiefs. They are slightly above average.

Matt is hot, you got that right. He is a stud.

Seriously, you could let this guy take your smokin hot 25 year old virgin daughter away for the weekend knowing she’d come back in tact. He’s Radar O’Reilly not Charlie Sheen or Charlie’s brother Afro.

“Smokin’ hot twenty five year old” and “virgin” don’t belong in the same sentance, especially in Missouri, if she was that hot,one of her brothers would have nailed her at fifteen.

I read books for a while but now I changed it to great blogs, your place is one of the examples why I began to pay attention to internet resources. Good luck!

Hey 🙂 Is it okay if I kinda off topic? I’m trying to view your post on my new Macbook but it doesn’t show properly, do you have any suggestions? Should I try to find an fix for my computer or something? Thanks! Florrie x 🙂
Have you ever been fooled by images that look real but are actually Photoshopped? You need some Image Analysis software to help you detect them. But such kind of software is usually pretty expensive. Instead, some online fake detection tool can help on this for free. Like Photoshopped Image Killer. PSKiller extracts JPEG quantization tables from your image and compares them with those in database. If they match tables of Photoshop, image will be classifier as Photoshopped. Exif tags of JPEG are utilized as well.
