Either that, or he doesn't give a shit about being a starter or competing for a starting gig, in which case, **** Kyle Orton.

Well, if you read that article, in short, Orton says he's done competing for a starting job. He likes the notion of being the backup only. The starter should be clearly defined.
It sounds to me like he was sick of competing against Tebow and didn't want to compete against Cassel. So, he took the next best thing which was to back up Romo and collect a fat paycheck.
I can't blame him for that but I'm glad he's not on the Chiefs roster.
