Will Smith out for the Season

08-26-2013, 06:49 PM

Was he really under-appreciated? His production for his pay was a little bit out of kilter.

He was indeed a good and loyal Saint but not one in years to come that we will say 'Wow, remember that guy!'.

I still wanted him as part of the active squad this year so this is a disappointing blow but as I said before, not one that especially concerns me from a defensive productivity point of view this year.

Imo, yes he was... and a lot. Every since he signed his large contract, people would always harp on his production. People were so focused on him not producing on the level of his contract, they tended to forget what good he brought to the table.

Well, he's certainly not Hall of Fame material nor a waiting highlight reel.

I would have been fine either way. If he made the team, I would have been rooting for him. If he were gone, I'd wish him the best.

Totally fair comment. And let's be honest we've all, at some point, talked about him and said 'Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah .... gettin' jiggy wit' it' ..... or was it just me?

Apparently the cost of a player determines how good or bad they are on the field on Sundays. Its two different discussions that seem to overwhelm the B&G simpletons.

Best of Luck to Will Smith.
He worked hard, and got a well-deserved ring.
He'll always be a Saint to me.

Well I hate to see anyone get injured but I'll take anyway possible to get him off the field, get well but it was long overdue for Smith to hit the bench. Time to step up Tez and Junyah
