Smitty will be on Jim Rome show today

Smith absolutely crushed it.  Dropped so much knowledge. 

 

My little recap won't do the interview any justice, so I'll post the interview once they put it up on the CBS sportsradio website.

 

 

Rome asked Smith what it's like to hear criticism about teammates in the media, specifically Cam.  Paraphrasing, Smith said "It's hard because as teammates we all become so close.  We go through so much as a team; training camp, practices.  When we spend so much time together, working together, running, puking, picking each other up and spending 8 hours a day together in the offices.  We have each other's back like brothers.  Cam might have looked at me the wrong way during training camp one time, and I could use that in my mind to say 'OK I'm going to run the wrong route' to spite him.  But after being through so much together I could never do something like that."

 

 

That was what I remember Smith saying about Cam for the most part. 

 

 

The link should be up soon for the interview.  There's no point in trying to recap because you just have to hear Smitty say it.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
