Voiceofreason is a loser.

BUT, he is correct that RGIII is probably already better than Alex Smith. Id never want Smith as my QB.
____________________________________

RGIII maybe better than Alex Smith statistically, but he’s on the Redskins. So far they have only won 1 game. They are at the bottom of their division. San Francisco is second in their division. I think we know who the better team is here. All thanks to players like Alex Smith.

Haha! With a name of “voiceofreasonsays”, there is nothing humble or reasonable you might be able to say. Aside finding a life, a lady or boyfriend, you might want to find a real reason to speak your voice.

Asked about the fine for his loyalty to the local team, Smith suggested he’d keep going if the baseball team picked up the tab, saying: “Yeah, can you call [Giants CEO] Larry Baer for me?”

Wouldn’t that circumvent the salary cap?

Smith haters crack me up. In the last 4 meaningful games, Alex has beaten Drew Brees, Aaron Rodgers, Matthew Stafford and should have beaten Eli Manning.

the dude is getting fined $15,000 for wearing a hat.

Let me repeat

The dude is getting fined $15,000 for wearing a hat.

Has anyone out there ever heard the quaint phrase ‘freedom of speech’?

People use to crack jokes about Alex Smith. Call him the worst quarterback in history. But if you haven’t read the news about the San Francisco 49ers and how far they have come to becoming an outstanding team nearly entering the last Super Bowl. You got to give Alex Smith some credit for his progress. He actually made it to being the top five quarterbacks in the fantasy league. Trust me, if you have him right now you want to hold on to him as long as you can. Those of you just calling out hate about Alex Smith without looking at the current facts, you have no idea what you are talking about. Seriously, look at the facts before you ridicule the guy. I hate certain people but I at least try to make sure my facts are clear. I have always been a fan of San Francisco and I always will be.

Out of interest, what’s the fine for turning up to the post-game press conference late enough that it is now 90 minutes after the game?

Itll be 7 years before he understands the rule, just like it took 7 years for him to learn how to quarterback in the NFL.

________

And it’ll be another 7 years before you catch up with the rest of the world in realizing the sheep think about Alex Smith is out of date. Don’t look now but Alex out played your golden boy last week and last year. One thing that will never change is that Matty looks like he has down syndrome. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. Just an observation. Man up and accept that 9 times out of ten SF will hand Detroit their rear ends.

Reminds me of the saying: If a tree falls in the forest and no one is around, does it make a noise? If Alex Smith wears a Giants hat and fans, players, coaches, trainers, etc…don’t care, does it really matter?

@lionsdraftguy

For all Alex’s shortcomings, at least he hasn’t run out of the back of the endzone yet like you guys’ attempt to field something that remotely resembles a quarterback for the last decade. Back to the paper bags bro because you guys arent going anywhere with that abomination on a defense.

I bet you guys dont make the playoffs. Shake on it?

This is a bad rule. I love it when NFL players support their local baseball and hockey teams. With the NFL being the new American past time I bet players of other sports really appreciate the support.

My Steelers are often seen sporting Pirates and Pens gear. What’s wrong with these other leagues getting 15 seconds of support? Especially around playoff time. It isn’t like the league is strapped for cash.

I think he should replace it with a “Goodell sucks!” hat, much nicer.

Doesn’t this league have enough to worry about other than the type of hat someone wears before or after a game. Maybe this needs to be changed in the next player agreement. Referees that don’t know yardage for penalties, or even the two teams names, and Goofwell is concerned about a hat. Roger go crawl back under a rock. I’m sure your parents are embarrassed by your every move. I would be.

I can’t take this guy seriously. 2pac and Biggie died a while ago and so did East vs West. East coast bias? Please…

I’ve never seen a bigger attention seeker. I guess since he’s below average on the football field, he needs to find other ways to make news.

Your partner probably thinks you’re below average in the sack hence the reason for your post.

Great years joke. Answer these: How many years has it been since the Lions last beat the Niners? How many consecutive years has it been that the Lions havent won the Super Bowl?

So, can the players fine the NFL for using non-official officials between the time the ball is kicked off until the final whistle?

DANG! And I was thinking of getting a 49ers hat but now I’m not because Alex Smith wasn’t wearing one. Maybe I’ll get a Giants hat out of spite.

After watching the 49ers first 2 games and listening to all the experts in the media, apparently their only weakness is how they dress (a red undershirt and a baseball cap)?

Make sure Alex removes the Fruit of the Loom label from his drawers.
NFL greed is starting to drive me away. Their little DirecTV Thursday night football irks me also but, you can pay for a replay of any game. Eat my grits!
