Per NFL Network: Smoot Officially Released

I think in retro the decision on Pierce and Clark can be seen as mistakes. The decision on Smoot cannot be seen as a mistake though. He wanted more than he was worth and the Vikings have seen that. He can come back here hopefully for a fair deal and we can get value on it.

HA. Pissed.

Nice wordplay TAF!

And no, Toomer was too busy filming a new music video with R. Kelly.

Wait, what? Was Amani Toomer there also?

He was busy not banging his wife.

Come on now, how many people can say they've never snorted a gram of blow off a hooker's ass?

Seriously, the boat incident wasn't THAT bad. If you read the Maxim article about a year ago, it's basically an expensive version of ANYONE'S typical visit to a strip club/whore house.

I know that when I go "pleasure" boating, I make sure to have a boatload of strippers and get oral sex in front of a bunch of people.

If you guys read the La Conforna article on another post, since clements is too high priced it will probably will be smoot or Bly. I'd welcome them both. I think there is a great possibility that we'll see Smoot running his mouth on our local news once again. It will be good. I hope he really hasn't fallen off that much and can regain the level he played at in 04.

Our needs shouldn't up the price. The market will set it. They have no leverage to charge us more than whatever anyone else will pay regardless of our needs. If they base their decision on our needs they would be doing it just to be jerks. Basically they'd be saying..."I'll take less to sign somewhere else because we want you to overpay for us."

Our needs are part of what determines the market, in short how much do we 'need' him. They'll certainly try to get us to overpay & why not? we've shown little restraint in the past, plus Smoot may feel he's entitled to more here.
On skins insider someone said that Tenn. is looking at signing smoot & that makes sense w/pacman's problems. As was pointed out, Tenn. is closer to Miss.
my point is smoot will have options so his agents will be able to up the price cause it's a slim market. Same thing w/Springs, there might be some good $ out there if he tests the waters.

In the interim, try Coooooley!

I do that too.... but I like SMOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!

Plus, I think Smoot has grown up a lot since the boat incident. If I can change, and Smoot can change, then everybody can change!
I have to ask what has he done or said that would make you think that he has grown up a lot since the incident? Or is that why you started with I Think?

I am much more concerned about his level of play than his naval escapades. He hasn't preformed well (except on the boat) in MN. Hopefully, we won't break the bank here...

(For all that, I loved Smoot when he was here...)

I have to ask what has he done or said that would make you think that he has grown up a lot since the incident? Or is that why you started with I Think?It was meant to be a joke.
