This isn’t a surprise to locals. Smith is very likeable off the field. He calls the local sports talk radio station pretty regularly – not for a pre-arranged interview, just out of the blue. He’s chock full of one-liners and is fun to listen to. The kids that go to his football camp every year love him.

I wish he didn’t have to get angry and worked up (real or imagined) to play his best, but that’s how some guys roll. And he hasn’t punched a teammate in 5 years, so can we let that one go, please?

And who’s to say he didn’t take the picture driving down his driveway? I’m sure it’s at least a quarter mile long lol.

some people have nothing better to do than complain and criticize EVERYTHING you read…just laugh at his humor and be done with it

Hilarious on many levels. Hardy is a moron and I like how Smith was clever (and he doesn’t have a Twitter, that was the most surprising thing to me in this article lol). But Smith could have taken the picture then waited to send it to Kalil, Stewart and Beason. So you can’t assume he was texting and driving. And even if he was it was only at 26 mph lol.

Smith is proof that you can be charismatic and outspoken while being a productive and a great team player.

Taking a picture, looking at a picture, looking up at least 3 different receipients for a text, sending a picture text with a typed caption and doing all this while driving at any speed is dangerous. Funny story though!

Steve’s normal course of action would be to punch out Hardy

If Hardy was going to get it, he would have “got it” when he wrecked his motorcycle …

Doing 100mph is dangerous but I think the fact that they were texting and driving is more dangerous, which according to this article they both did

6th rder with a Bentley….he better hang on to it becuase he will be living in that thing in about 3 more years….

6th rounder on a rookie deal who could be out of the league in a week with a new Bentley. He is making 540k this year.

After taxes and agents fees, that car probably cost him at least 50% of his net income. And you can be fairly certain that the Bentley was not his only big purchase.

Spending at these levels would be fine if he were guaranteed to be earning at that rate for next 20 years or so. But given the fact that he will probably make 90% of the money he will earn in his entire life in the next 5 years, it looks pretty stupid.

A 6th round pick on his rookie contract buys a Bentley. Wonder why so many football player are broke after they finish playing. Idiot.
