Fred Smoot Update
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. :(

Re: Fred Smoot Update
Malcolm does too. He's just a character.
If he was here during the loveboat incident, he and Portis would have gone apeshit together. |
Re: Fred Smoot Update
Nothing wrong with a little love boat! It brings the team together!

Re: Fred Smoot Update
Damn right. I saw the Maxim spread with pics and the whole story and I'm like, "Man, I wish I WAS there." :(

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! |
Re: Fred Smoot Update
I think we could guarantee that, for WAY cheaper than Clements or Samuel.

TMC - I think you hit the nail there. I believe that the Vikings owner is not like ours with massive amounts of disposable cash. I know with the huge contract Hutchinson signed he is not "cheap", but hopefully he refuses to pay a "backup" (which Smoot is not) $5 million and cut ties. |

Rogers as Nickel if Springs stays sounds about right. |
