Tom Who?

You're familiar with the Patriots' star quarterback, right?...'bout 6'4'', decent looking kid from California, makes a habit of throwing several touchdowns and several hundred yards each game and the occasional rushing TD....that's right I'm talking about Matt Cassel (what were you thinking?). I don't know about you, but for all the whining everybody did about Tom Brady going down in Week 1, Cassel has sure picked up the slack and then some. To quote Mr. Randy Moss, Cassel's been playing some hellified ball.
If you're still not paying attention to the Patriots this season, you better open your eyes and pay attention. In the last 2 games, Cassel's been...well...Brady-like. Before Sunday, only 4 quarterbacks in NFL history threw for 400 yards in back-to-back games, and Tom Brady isn't one of those guys. Sure, the Pats aren't 11-0 at this point, but they're surging in the AFC and making a valid push at another great season. Cassel almost single-handedly beat the Jets 9 days ago, throwing for 400 yards and 3 TDs, while leading the Pats in rushing with 62 yards. He followed that up by throwing another 3 TDs to Moss, 415 yards, completing almost 70% of his 43 passes and rushing for a TD.
I'm in no way suggesting the Patriots need to look to trade Tom Brady, don't get me wrong. However, if I'm Matt Cassel and things keep going this way, I need to start at QB for somebody in the NFL (hey Philly, I'm pretty sure Matt knows ties can happen!). Anyway, the Pats have another tough game this week against the Steelers, and it'll be mainly up to Cassel to keep his trade value going up.

Where Wax Figures Happen...

Every now and then something happens that just ticks me off. You know, like every time Manu Ginobili flops, or every time Robert Horry wins another cherry-picked championship ring, or when they change the actress playing Vivian on the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air without a word, as if she just got taller and lighter overnight.
Well, this is one of those moments. Apparently, Madame Tussaud's wax museum in D.C. decided to make a wax figure of an NBA player...Gilbert Arenas? What? That's right, Gilbert "Agent Zero worth for the money we're paying you" Arenas. Now I'm not saying his injuries are his fault or that he isn't a great player, but I used to think only the most distinguished got inducted into Tussaud's wax museum. I mean we're talking George W. and the Jonas Brothers here, this isn't just an honor you hand out like a raffle ticket. Arenas? Maybe just because he plays in Washington, but so did Jordan, is there a wax figure of Jordan in a Wizards jersey? (No really, is there? I'd like to know)
Anyway, at least Arenas donated one of his own jerseys to the cause. Still, makes me want to go to D.C., pose with the Duke Ellington figure and burn Arenas' figure to the ground...but slowly...and with one of those peppermint scented candles...
