eball Posted January 16, 2006 Posted January 16, 2006 Steve Smith. How can you not like and root for this guy? He has every characteristic you look for in a player; he's talented, tough, and looks like he's really having fun out there. He's arguably Carolina's only legitimate threat, and teams know exactly what he's going to do. Nonetheless, he still does it. At 5'9" no less. Great, great player. Can't wait to see what he does next week.

Thailog80 Posted January 16, 2006 Posted January 16, 2006 We almost beat them also. What the hell does that mean? We're we good that day or did Carolina have a hangover?
BuffOrange Posted January 16, 2006 Posted January 16, 2006 We almost beat them also. What the hell does that mean? We're we good that day or did Carolina have a hangover? 569445[/snapback] It means it contributed to their 6-2 (now 8-2) road record and our 4-4 home record. Yeah, Steve Smith is good at football.

J. Peppers is almost as much of freak on the defense as Steve Smith is on offense. GO PANTHERS!

d_wag Posted January 16, 2006 Posted January 16, 2006 He has every characteristic you look for in a player569439[/snapback] yea, can't have enough guys that enjoy sucker-punching their teamates.........real stand-up character there.....
Thailog80 Posted January 16, 2006 Posted January 16, 2006 yea, can't have enough guys that enjoy sucker-punching their teamates.........real stand-up character there..... 569475[/snapback] Please refresh my memory. What happened with Smith?

Thailog80 Posted January 16, 2006 Posted January 16, 2006 http://panthers.scout.com/2/77205.html 569480[/snapback] Thanks.....I never remember hearing anything about that.
pdh1 Posted January 16, 2006 Posted January 16, 2006 Thanks.....I never remember hearing anything about that. 569488[/snapback] I thought only Westbrook did that type of thing
IDBillzFan Posted January 16, 2006 Posted January 16, 2006 Thanks.....I never remember hearing anything about that. 569488[/snapback] Domestic disputes. Happening a lot in the NFL these days.
eball Posted January 16, 2006 Author Posted January 16, 2006 yea, can't have enough guys that enjoy sucker-punching their teamates.........real stand-up character there..... 569475[/snapback] While I had no knowledge of this story before you mentioned it, I'd offer the following: a. It happened more than three years ago -- think maybe some people learn and mature as they get older? b. Smith offered a prompt and well-worded apology to the WR he punched, his team, coaches, and fans. c. "There is no indication as to what caused the fight or if there was any provocation." To call this incident an indictment of Steve Smith's character is pretty careless on your part.
mary owen Posted January 16, 2006 Posted January 16, 2006 i owe my fantasy football championship to SS this year. what a steal in the 6th round.
Kultarr Posted January 16, 2006 Posted January 16, 2006 There hasn't been a player that smallin size in the NFL who can totally take over a game by himself since our own beloved Thurman (in his prime). J. Peppers is almost as much of freak on the defense as Steve Smith is on offense. GO PANTHERS! 569464[/snapback] It was kind of strange to see a DE pick up the ball and run away from a WR, and not even look like he was really in top gear ...

Alaska Darin Posted January 16, 2006 Posted January 16, 2006 a. tell that to marv levy, who only wants high character players on his team i.e. if you made a mistake in the past he does not want you on his team b. and what did you expect him to say? c. i don't care what the guy said -- he sucker-punched the guy and then proceeded to label him a few more times when the guy couldn't defend himself........there is no excuse for that it is an indictment of smith's character.......he screwed up and showed himself to be a classless individual..... 569537[/snapback] He was also named the team's "Man of the Year" in 2004 for his community service work.
Tar Heel Bill Posted January 16, 2006 Posted January 16, 2006 I agree....He is the most underrated player in the NFL. He might even be the best receiver. It's not like he has Peyton Manning throwing to him like Marvin Harrison. Steve Smith. How can you not like and root for this guy? He has every characteristic you look for in a player; he's talented, tough, and looks like he's really having fun out there. He's arguably Carolina's only legitimate threat, and teams know exactly what he's going to do. Nonetheless, he still does it. At 5'9" no less. Great, great player.

I guess you learn something new every day.
