| #2 Posted on 28.8.03 0912.13 | You know, when I looked at the thread title I thought, "CRZ's talking about Akili Smith, I'll bet." Sure enough. Can't say I'm too surprised he got let go, although he does seems to have that "big guy with a rocket arm we MUST be able to mold into a good QB" thing going for him. Heck, even Ryan Leaf was on FOUR teams (if you count the Seahawks).

"Each time I've met Huffington, I wondered if she was not somehow the long-lost daughter of Madame Nicolai Ceaucescu, or a genetic cross between Martha Stewart and Count Dracula. Had this Greek-born harpy lived in medieval times, she would have been sewn up in a bag with a rooster and two snakes and thrown into the nearest river."

| #4 Posted on 28.8.03 1149.43 | Well, Smith had the opportunity to engineer a game-winning drive last Saturday vs. Carolina...and flopped. He needed to show the coaches something in that situation to help his cause...and he failed.
Hell, he was pretty much just a warm body at camp anyway. Favre/Pederson/Nall is your QB depth chart.
But take heart, Akili Smith fans (both of ya)...several Packer QB's have gone from backing up Favre to starting for other NFL clubs: Ty Detmer, Mark Brunell, Pederson, Aaron Brooks...
Star wipe, and...we're out.
Thrillin' ain't easy.
