11/26/08: Cassel or Brady in 09?
Fred opened today's show with the announcement that he would give the PFW guys the day off tomorrow due to it being Thanksgiving. Following a brief preview of the forthcoming game against the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Patriots' playoff chances Paul brought up the good news that Matt Light wouldn't be suspended following his altercation with Channing Crowder. The guys then talked a little more in depth about the Steelers matchup and the potential gameplans which were basically getting to the respective quarterbacks.
Paul mentioned a moment whilst waiting for practise when Bill Belichick was in good spirits whilst walking past the media which made Fred recall a recent 'moment' when BB passed him and acknowledged him. The guys then went into the franchise/not franchise Cassel argument using the fans argument that we could lose Seymour and Wilfork if we do so because there wouldn't be enough salary cap to get all three.
Chris with a tian called in with some bad news about his father (I wish him all the best Christian and I'm sure the PFW faithful echo the sentiment) and to talk about the shocking calls to trade Brady following the recent performances from Matt Cassel.
Following a break, the guys talked about the Thanksgiving matchups and Paul gave thanks that the Patriots weren't playing. Fred came up with a new word, 'Wipples', following Andy's talk about Brook Burke's asymmetrical nipples. A great email from Superious followed which called out the 'fans' who are talking about trading Brady to keep Cassel which garnered applause from Paul. The guys talked briefly about the forthcoming game against the Seahawks before Andy teased a B-Lowe love affair in Miami. Surely he knows the phrase "What goes on tour stays on tour"?.
Following an email from Ping-Pong slating Erik, the man who has "no formal artistic training" joined the show to give his practise report. Glenn in Newburyport called in which ended in a surreal fashion with Fred saying hello to Glenn's mother.
