When did Disney start doing movies about guys getting free rides to Pac-10 schools, take five years to get a degree, get lucky enough to get drafted, ride the pine until starter goes down, move on to big free agent signing? Hell, Disney shot Bambi's mother for dramatic tension...Cassel's story just won't cut it for Disney - not enough edge.
I'll take Matt's "hard luck story of perciverance and triumph over a overactive urge to hug on everyone" any day.

Chiefs fans are like hardcore Trekkies. We so love this team and are ecstatic that we're seeing good football again (like when The Next Generation was premiered after years of Kirk's trek being off the air). But there's still a problem that's really holding this team back and is preventing it from really becoming awesome. Wesley Crusher. Matt Cassel is Wesley Crusher. We just finished the first season. Tasha Yar is dead; we lost in the playoffs. And Wesley is still firmly with the series. We have to wait probably another 3 years to get rid of him, and even then he'll do something stupid like miss the ship to the Academy and have to stick around for another year. Likewise, Matt Cassel will have worn out his welcome in the eyes of EVERYONE by that point, but we still won't have a QB so he'll stick around another year. And that will be unbearable. In the meantime though, we're enjoying the return of Chiefs football. We'll put up with Matt "Wesley" Cassel. Why? We have no other choice. What are we going to do? Not watch Star Trek? Should we miss the Chiefs playoff run just because Wesley Crusher is our QB? **** me. They even look alike, too. |

Here is what I would do.
1. Sign Carson Palmer for 2nd string 2. Sign Matt Leinart for 3rd string 3. BOOST to Cassel's ego, he be like "ya, who's starting now? WHAT? WHAT?" and Matt Cassel wins us a Superbowl. |

Yeah, Cassel as Chiefs QB is indeed like a Hollywood script. I'm thinking of "Deliverance", and Chiefs fans are represented by Ned Beatty.

They already made a movie about Matt Cassel, though they made an odd casting decision.
