Steve Smith Is ON WFNZ Having A Confessional, Won't Let the Story End

[Jmac]

Please....please just go away.

[Mr. Scot]

this has only happened to one guy in nfl history, and that's steve smith

 

Pretty much.

 

 

But sports isn't a business! !!!

 

This particular team certainly wasn't run like a business before Gettleman got here.

 

(Smitty's honestly not the only player to whine a little bit about that fact)

 

[t96]

Not too many guys that have meant what Steve did to this organization have been let go by their teams the way he was.

 

Peyton, Montana, Rice, Brees, Warner, etc. The list goes on and on. It's a business. Smitty has every right to be angry, and I would be too, but he needs to understand that this stuff just happens. Can't blame anyone, it had to be done.

[SOJA]

still have no idea what is going on- is there a link to audio 

[The NFL Shield At Midfield]

this sounds like dave mustaine talking about getting kicked out of metallica

 

i promise you if steve smith gets inducted into the hall of fame he's going to take a piss shot at the panthers on the podium in canton

[Jesse]

Does Smitty expect Rivera to text and call every player that's cut? When he sees you in real life of course he's gonna shake your hand bro. I'm not sure why he's still bringing this up, move on.

[AceBoogie]

oh okay so if they're different things then i guess you have no business trying to make it personally relatable to anyone here then

glad we're done with that

If they want to try to compare what Steve meant to the panthers, vs what they mean to their organization then I want to hear it.

[Ja Rhule]

Go home Steve, you are drunk.

[GoDaddyGo]

I suggest people listen to podcast when they get it up. The OP's synopsis isn't what I took away from the interview. 

[TheRumGone]

You have a family?

 

 

you know there are people who get paid a lot less than millions of dollars doing harder poo than getting paid to play a game that don't get to see their families

 

 

if steve smith didn't want to be away from his family. he could have you know retired.

 

i guess that's steve smith being selfish with his millions and his 4 kids and wife. smitty is looking for pity from people like you.

 

yes i'm going to pity a man that already has MILLLIONS, knows how to invest his money properly, for being away from his family when he could be retired at the age of 35.

 

gtfo

[Cary Kollins]

Go home Steve, you drunk.

 

 

 

srsly i mean rly

[csx]

he's cried more about this than Marcus Allen getting cut from the Raiders...

and Jerry Rice and Peyton Manning and Emmit Smith combined

 

 

Edit: Looks like Thomas beat me to it and went further

[MThornton1]

Like Smitty said, "If I am on your team you love me, if I am not on your team you despise me".  After that I think I might choose the latter. You got screwed Smitty, guess what?? THat is Life!!!  Move on man......

[Mr. Scot]

If you believe half that poo you are gullible. I guarantee you that most of that stuff wasn't said.

That might have been what Smitty heard, but not what was said. If you get my meaning.

 

I'm pretty sure a good deal (maybe even the vast majority) of what Smitty claims was 'said' to him probably wasn't.  It's just how he took it.  It's the old 'so what you're really saying to me is' thing.

 

Sad to see this stuff, but I wan't exactly expecting to hear an evenhanded version of events from Smitty anyway.
