Sports: You’re good Matt Cassel, but you’re no Tom Brady. See ya!

  • The replacement QB got traded to Kansas City. Cassel, formerly of the New England Patriots, spent years waiting in the wings behind Tom Brady, and he finally had his chance to prove himself after Brady had a knee injury. And he did, leading the team to a solid season and getting 21 TDs in the process. But that solid season didn’t compare to Brady’s epic, near-undefeated 2007. So off to the Chiefs (with Mike Vrabel) he goes. source

Sports: Marvin Harrison: Leaving Indy because of the salary cap

  • It will be strange to line up under center and not see No. 88 out on my right. He is a Hall-of-Fame receiver, I am proud to have played with him, and he will always be an Indianapolis Colt in my book.
  • Peyton Manning • On his former wide receiver, Marvin Harrison, perhaps one of the Indianapolis Colts’ best players of all time. Harrison had to leave the team because the Colts could no longer afford to have him. Harrison would have counted $13.6 million against the salary cap, the highest in the NFL when it comes to receivers. • source

Sports: Stephon Marbury: Knicks drama over, are the Celtics next?

  • That’s what appears to be the case. Marbury spent months embroiled in drama with his former team, who worked out a buyout with him yesterday. He hasn’t been on the basketball court lately as a result of the drama. The Celtics seem to be his next spot. While Boston themselves wouldn’t comment, Marbury told the Boston Globe he was “excited about the new beginning.” Personally, we blame the Starburys. source

Sports: New York Giants: Yeah, Plaxico probably isn’t coming back

  • We’ll prepare as if he’s not going to be here, and if he is, it’s a bonus.
  • Jerry Reese • New York Giants general manager, on Plaxico Burress’ status. The Super-Bowl-winning wide receiver has been a giant question mark since he shot himself in the leg at a New York nightclub, then got charged with a felony for the (admittedly pretty stupid) deed. • source
