Really hard not to like Matt Cassel.

That is just a baseless, useless idolization of sports for the sake of your own obsession.

If sports has become that impersonal for you, that soulless and pointless, nothing more than finding cogs for a machine whose gears you care nothing for, is a sign that this isn't a healthy approach to the sport.

I'm a big fan of yours, OTW, but you need to get your head straight.

And coming from me, that's saying something.

I have always said that character matters.

But character without talent is useless.

I don't give a rat's ass if Cassel is the nicest mother****er to ever walk the planet, he's still a useless piece of shit on the field.
