Matt Cassel

So I have a dilemma to speak of! As you can read, I am a Raiders fan, however, today I had the chance to go out to eat and hang out with Matt Cassel all afternoon b/c he came to my work for a tour and I have to say now, I am a fan of at least Matt Cassel. He was a great guy to talk to and very laid back with his attitude. You would have had no idea he was going to be the starting QB for the Chiefs after signing for 13 million dollars. He told stories of his days with USC and the Patriots and they were all funny as hell b/c, in his words, " I was just sitting there picking my nose when Tom went down with his knee and the next thing I know, I couldn't find my helmet to go into the game!" Funny stuff!!!

So, the problem is, can I just route for one player and not the team as a whole? What is everybody's take on this?

Ha that is how I manage to watch NBA games. Although I dont really like the league or any particular team in general, when I do catch a game I'll usually pick out someone I knew from college and cheer for them.

Lifelong Vikes fan, but a friend played for the Packers and Rams for a while. So I sorta cheered for them, even though I shouldn't have.

From everything I have heard, Cassel is a great guy, and comes from a great family. Seems likeable. I like to hear about rich and famous people still being grounded about things.
