Fred Smoot Update

Bill B · 02-09-2007, 02:18 PM

Just wanted to post an article I found on Fred Smoot and his feelings about playing for the Vikings. Not saying the Skins should go out and sign the guy tommorow - just sending along an article.

Here is one tibit that I found interesting that Smoot said:

"I would love to be a Viking," he said. "But I am nobody's bench rider. Fred Smoot is a starter."

How can the Vikings keep him happy on the bench if he says this?

I love Smoot. He's solid and I miss Silky Johnson.

Smoot won't be back.

I once thought it was just another warpath thread topic w/no chance of being reality. But if that article is right, there is a chance that Smoot comes back. A lot of teams would want to save $5mil in cash. Not us, but maybe the vikes.
I don't think we could guarantee him a starting job though, and that may be part of his demands.
Let's bring him back!

Citizens for 81 loves it when players refer to themselves in the 3rd person.

See! JGILOTR told you it would catch on!

Malcolm does too. He's just a character.

If he was here during the loveboat incident, he and Portis would have gone apeshit together.

Nothing wrong with a little love boat! It brings the team together!

Damn right. I saw the Maxim spread with pics and the whole story and I'm like, "Man, I wish I WAS there."

Don't tell me you wouldn't want to be on a boat ride with a bunch of scantily clad studs doing anything you wanted.

Skins...exciting to root
Come aboard, we're expecting Smoot!

TheMalcolmConnection · 02-09-2007, 03:11 PM

I think we could guarantee that, for WAY cheaper than Clements or Samuel.
