But, thank God, Joey Porter just keeps talking. ... Joey Porter's past his prime on a bad team, but he just can't help himself.

Joey Porter, of course, is quoted as saying about Patriots' quarterback Matt Cassell that he's not Tom Brady (no shit?) and that ...
"You treat him like you treat a backup," Porter said. "How do you prepare for a backup? He don't get that many snaps, right? So you throw the kitchen sink at him. That's what we're going to do."
Well, good luck with that, Peezy. The Patriots still have Randy Moss, Wes Welker, and the Evil Genius, but more than that ... Joey Porter's Pit Bulls have been impressed with Matt Cassell as a quarterback in his own right.
We haven't seen all that much of him, but just conclude: He's pretty good. He's poised; he's got a tight, smooth throwing motion; he is patient in the pocket; he seems to have good field vision; his arm is strong enough; and his throws seem to be crisp and accurate. And he runs pretty well. He's a good quarterback.
Not Tom Brady. But pretty good. Dismiss all the talk that he hasn't started a game since his senior year in high school. He went to USC (how bad could he be?). And he backed up glamour QBs Carson Palmer and Matt Leinart. And might end up being a better pro than either of them.
NOT that any of this makes us happy. We can't stand the Patriots. For all that ... if Matt Cassell goes down to injury, well, look out.

Joey Porter, just what exactly what did you mean when you said, "You treat him like a backup"?

Bless his deranged heart and mind. Perhaps Joey should have said something about treating him like a starter...because that is what he is, former apprentice or no.
And yeah, I'm actually a little impressed with Cassel myself. I'd probably be more impressed if ESPN wasn't shoving him down my throat. But hey, what can you do?
Yes, he is THE starter. Good point. The same thought occurred to me. You don't treat him like a backup. You treat him like a starter in the NFL. He deserves some respect. He can beat the Dolphins. And almost certainly will .. with that crew backimg him.
Oh Joey Porter... As crazy as he is, I love the shit the comes out of his mouth.
As we love the "Shit" that comes out of your mouth!
this blog is appropriately named.
Glad you stuck with the name.
Awww ... you guys. Are nice. Seriously, I thought of changing the blog name, but as long as Joey Porter stays crazy, I just can't.
Remember that time where Joey was on a good team that could help him back up his shit talking? God, that was fun.
Ah, good times, good times.
