Retweet of the Day - February 27, 2013

Alex Smith, the first pick in the 2005 NFL Draft, lost his job as the NFC Champion San Francisco 49ers starting quarterback to Colin Kaepernick due to a mid-season concussion. Kaepernick shined in relief and Smith never saw the field again. This morning, the 49ers reportedly agreed to a trade for Smith with the Kansas City Chiefs.

This all but certainly spells the end of Matt Cassel's mediocre reign at the Chiefs' signal caller. This leads us to today's retweet from the parody account Thomas F. Brady (@DouchyTomBrady). The irony is that the real Tom Brady made his rise to stardom 12 seasons ago when established Patriots starter and Pro Bowler (and Hall of Fame nominee) Drew Bledsoe was injured and replaced by Brady, then an unknown 6th round draft pick from the 2000 NFL draft. Cassel made a name for himself in 2008 when he replaced an injured Tom Brady. The Pats, wisely, stuck with their man that go-round.

"I hope Matt Cassel comes back to NE, nobody could hold a clipboard like him"
