Steve Smith tells the story of how he injured his finger

August 11th, 2011, 1:31 pm · Post a Comment · posted by sreed

I bumped into Panthers WR Steve Smith this afternoon and he showed me a picture on his Blackberry of the finger injury he sustained on the field the other night.

It was disgusting, quite frankly.

The photo showed a very deep gash on the webbing between the middle and ring finger of his left hand. He said he needed four or five stitches to repair it and will be back once it heals, which shouldn’t be too long. Smith said he had taped his pinkie finger and ring together before practice and the ball — thrown by Jimmy Clausen — hit perfectly in between the middle and ring finger, splitting it wide open.

Smith said it wasn’t a hard pass, but just hit him in the right spot.

He didn’t notice anything wrong until he looked down at his finger. He was surprised to see it gushing blood, which is why the trainers wrapped it up and took him right away on a golf cart up to the locker room.

Really? I still have a flip phone that was free with contract 4 years ago. No internet. No messaging.

Same here its cheap and durable. All i need to be happy with a cell phone is a contacts list, text messaging capability and maybe tetris.

Yep, same here. All I need is texts and calls.... oh and the fact that the wife won't give in to a data plan.

That right there for why I have no internet or messaging. Pick your battles with the wife. This one just isn't worth arguing over. Hence the iPod.

    • I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.
    • This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.
    • to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
