@JoshLooney Just update us when Cassel is accurate enough to hit the right dug out between innings

You must have hated it when 30,000 people jumped to their feet and cheered when Bill Self hit the ball over the fence.

It was also awesome how the fans got Bo to come to the plate, by chanting "we want Bo", he had to have pinch runner though and he popped out to end game. It was an awesome day!

Cassel officially has more celebrity softball experience than college QB experience.

Cassel gets booed at All-Star celebrity softball game in K.C.

Some in the city that is hosting baseball’s All-Star game apparently don’t believe the local quarterback should be playing in football’s version of the event.

At Sunday’s All-Star Legends & Celebrity Softball Game, held at Kansas City’s Kauffman Stadium, fans booed Chiefs quarterback Matt Cassel during player introductions, according to Gary Bedore of the Lawrence (Kansas) Journal-World. Per the report, fans then provided “polite applause” prior to Cassel’s at-bats.

He wasn’t the only player to get a rough reception. Kansas basketball coach Bill Self heard the boos from the Missouri crowd, too.

“I didn’t think it would be great,” Self said. “When I left the bus to go to the batting cage, I didn’t feel a lot of love walking through the crowd. I thought it’d be pretty much like it was.”

Self tried to quiet the noise by hitting an unlikely home run, but it didn’t work. Self was booed as he rounded the bases.

ESPN will air the game on a tape-delayed basis, after tonight’s Home Run Derby. Checking to see whether and to what extent Cassel was booed at least gives me a reason to watch it.

You guys are assholes. That's our starting qb you're wishing injury on.

He has more college QB experience than you have experience with women...

I was there partner ... I'm not sure what you were watching, but he was booed pretty hard the whole game. There was some KU supporters trying, but he was mostly booed.

Obviously nothing ... It was all fun and games. Nothing for KU fans to get butt hurt about.
