Bruce Smith

[SKINSnCANES]

my girlffriend watches the show so I watch it with her. Id let them spend thousands of dollards fixing up my house , wouldnt you?!/

As far as Smith, dont you guys remember where Marty was here and all he did was complain becuase of how hard they had to practice. I think he used to have great work ethic but the last few years, mainly those with the Skins, he has just relied on his expereience more than his athletic ability.

I'm just glad Grandpa retired. He can do whatever he wants to now, so long as he's not getting run over on our D-line anymore.

I do remember that, but Marty was probably the only coach that worked his older vets that hard starting from day 1 of training camp. It really is not smart. Marty's teams over his entire career had a reputaion for wearing out down the stretch. So I did not fault Bruce (and several others) who bitched about that. I sure am glad Gibbs takes the exact opposite approach. This 5 weeks off to try to keep them fresh later in the season is a terrific way to go.
