Steve Smith suspended
Steve Smith, Panthers WR, was suspended for punching teammate Ken Lucas. Good. Even though, when healthy, Smith is an awesome player, there's no need for that, especially for a supposed team leader. He'll miss the first two regular season games.
"I'm not going to get into who's right, who's wrong. I'm completely wrong," Smith said. "It was an asinine decision. And I'll move forward better than I probably have ever had to. It's the first time in my life that I really haven't forgiven myself."
"I will not put myself into a position where I have to defend myself, to state my side of the story. There's no side," Smith said. "There's only one side, a lack of judgment on my part. That's really all I have to say. I have no excuse. All I have is the opportunity to gain the respect of my fans, to gain the respect of my family, gain the respect of my co-workers and gain the respect of the organization."
Smith is saying all the right things, not surprisingly. It'll be interesting to see how this plays out.
