Quote:I get annoyed with TMD as much as anyone, but the fact is that TMD was living in Philly at the time the Jaguars signed Jimmy Smith. He very well could have heard or read something from Kotite back then that isn't able to be sourced right now. You act like absolutely every statement ever made, even from 20 years ago, is able to be referenced.

 

 

I'm going to ask you a simple question and try not to deflect it this time. Do YOU think that any of these things could have played a part in Jimmy Smith being cut by Eagles?

 

a: Smith was injury prone

b: Smith struggled to learn the offense

c: Smith was cut by the Cowboys and worked out for three other teams (Packers, Chiefs, Patriots) that didn't call him back.

d: Smith was dropping catchable passes in the preseason.

 

 

Seems very plausible to me. Not you?

Plausible for getting cut

 

a: Smith hit on Kotite's wife.

b: Smith wore his chinstrap wrong

c: Smith liked to walk around the locker room naked and made everyone uncomfortable

d: Smith kept saying off colored jokes during team meetings.

 

All these reasons are plausible also, but being plausible doesn't make something the truth.

 

If Koetite publicly said , which would be the only reason TMD would know, that the reason he cut was due to bad hands, then that would be on record somewhere yet it's not.

 

The burden of proof is on the one making the claim. Considering this claim should be easily substantiated because it would have been shared with the media yet no evidence exists, the only conclusion that you can reasonably make is that TMD made it all up.
