Matt Cassel Agent Pleased By All the "Cassel Or Brady" Articles (Satire)

Josh Tibbs, the agent for Patriots backup QB Matt Cassel, paged through Bleacher Report articles he printed up.

"Look at this one," he said, as he handed me a piece of paper.  "It compares Brady/Cassel to Montana/Young.  In some ways, a valid comparison, but still...Young was a Hall-of-Famer.  That raises Matt's asking price a cool million."

He glanced through more of the print-outs.  "This one compares him favorably with Matt Ryan.  Do you know how much Ryan got paid?" he asked.

"I've gone through them and not one mentions Derek Anderson's one-year explosion.  Heck, he made the Pro Bowl."

"So," I asked, "on a team without Moss and Welker, will Cassel succeed?"

"Who cares?" he replied.  "If some team pays for a savior and the check clears on the signing bonus, he doesn't have to be Jonny Unitas.  Heck, as long as he isn't Johnny Harrington, he is a success."

"Joey Harrington," I corrected.

"Whatever," he said.  "Point is, I'll be paid, I mean he'll be paid."

This is satire.  Quotes are made up.
