The Return
 

THE RETURN

Chapter One - A Matterfly flaps it's wings in Minnesota.

It was a cool, calm October day the day Matt Cassel returned to an NFL starting lineup. The Vikings, trailing by three touchdowns against the Cleveland Browns that Sunday, had replaced Christian Ponder with Cassel midway through the third quarter. Four touchdowns and a thrilling come-from-behind victory later, Minnesota had their new quarterback, and Cassel had his confidence back.

I saw it watching via my DirecTV subscription, an unsmiling onlooker, knowing what was likely to come. In the moments after the game-winning touchdown pass, after the jubilant throngs of Vikings had died down and the hands had ceased slapping his butt, Cassel sat on the bench, talking into a cell phone.

A very expensive cell phone, with an unlimited data plan and no charges for roaming or overages. The kind of service only bought by a $60 million contract. Ugh.

I knew who Cassel was talking to. Deep down, I knew, at my core. The battle was coming, and there was no avoiding it now.

Flipping off the TV, I grimaced. The hours were dwindling, and I had to prepare. The past would not save me.

To be continued...

Chapter Four - Put on your Warpaint.

Chapter Five - Process this.

Chapter Six - *****'s Sticky End

Chapter Seven - The Magnificent Seven - SPELLBINDING EPIC CONCLUSION TO EPIC CHIEFS CYBERPUNK TALE OF FLIGHTY CHIEFS HEROISM.

Please, I'm trying to forget Matt Cassel. Now I feel like throwing up.

This is a gut-wrenching tale. Evil never dies.

Vikings fans have no idea what's coming....

You get this from a Vikings message board? I've ventured to a few of those since Cassel signed there....I don't know why I have continued to torture myself with Cassel-related shit, but I have.... Possibly for the same reason some of the Smith-haters ventured here for a while. But anyways, some of these dumbass Vikings fans think he is the savior. No joke.

Makes me sick.

Four touchdowns? I hope you aren't implying that Cassel had anything to do with that. If so.. wake up and stop "dreaming".

That said, I can totally see it up to that point.

"It was a cool, calm October day the day Matt Cassel returned to an NFL starting lineup. The Vikings, ahead by a touchdon against the Cleveland Browns that Sunday, had replaced Christian Ponder with Cassel midway through the third quarter since they were getting nothing from their passing game. Four turnovers and a thrilling come-from-ahead defeat later, Minnesota discovered they had made a huge mistake not getting another QB this offseason. And Cassel had his confidence back since he 'graded out perfectly' in the loss."

:popcorn::bong:

Dexter Rocks !!!

Fear and Loathing.

***** was the evil(stupid with stuborn seems more apt) Cassel was just his tool.

So are you going to be the next stalker?
Cassel is gone and you are still stalking him...Denise is that you??????

Please put a warning on this thread. It's one hell of a scary ghost story, and now I'll have nightmares for weeks.

Its a possibility if they still had percy harvin whos everything dmc is not. But they ****ed that up theyre probably less talented than the chiefs on offense. Both have a stud runner and meh recieving cores. I feel bowe puts us ahead. Thier tight end was hot early last season but i think moeakis As good when healthy And our coaching staff made it clear this season hes not good enough or is t dependable enough. So yeah **** that guy **** ap **** matt cassle and **** all the ou-Ap bandwagoners im surrounded by.

Well, you see, all Cassel needs to succeed is a high-caliber running back, so...

He just needs a dome...
