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"

Brady Quinn's Good Luck Gets Better

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Brady Quinn has a good life. Quinn was a star quarterback at Notre Dame, the most storied program in the history of college football, a first round pick in the 2007 NFL Draft, and may be, for now, the starting quarterback for the Chiefs following the injury to Chiefs starting QB Matt Cassel. Quinn got an opportunity to showcase his skills in relief of Cassel. Any backup in any sports welcomes the opportunity, even if the circumstances are regrettable.

For the little it is worth, Quinn went 3 for 3 in relief of Cassel against the Baltimore Ravens and their staunch defensive personnel, increasing his stock even if slightly. Quinn's life got slightly better yesterday. But it was already good. Quinn's girlfriend is gymnast Alicia Sacramone.

I am blown away by this woman's flexibility on a number of levels. 1

Not bad in a bikini, either.... 2

Just...wow. I'll bet Quinn thought, after hooking up with her for the first time, "Now I'm done!" And not because of his MetRx endorsement.... 3

Incredible combination of beauty, female physique and athleticism.... 4
