Steve Smith Is ON WFNZ Having A Confessional, Won't Let the Story End

[Mr. Scot]

It's been mentioned a couple of times in this thread - Narcissism.

 

(which by the way is a pain in the a$$ for me to spell for some reason)

 

I'd argue it's even tougher to say than to spell. 

 

(makes you sound like you're stuttering)

I still find it hard to believe that people think Gettleman wouldn't say such things. The dude is about as frank as it comes in pressers and it got him into trouble before.

You just saw how the NFL botched the DV issue, AND you don't think it can get personal, rugged, offensive, or cutthroat behind closed doors? LOL. I've had people act like this in management positions when I was a kid making 15k a year. The stakes only get higher.

I agree about what DG suposedly said. A fast food manager won't say those things. Right now Smitty is full of dog-poo man. Someone needs to tell him to stfu. He's blowing up bridges .... he needs an intervention lol

God I hope he is. That's my kind of GM.

If you've ever worked for someone like this you would not think that way. It's not about whether or not DG can make good football decisions. Business is business. If your undrafted LT becomes a pro bowl player...great. If he sucks, well, there's that side of it too. It's about how you treat people. Who you are as man. That will also be a problem in the locker room.

Can't blame Steve for wanting his name cleared.

Thank you, everyone acting like it's a random outburst. It's the media perpetuating the story.

You know who has the worst people skills of any front office guy in the league?

 

Bill Belichick.

 

Doesn't really seem to have affected players' desire to play for New England.

The irony here is the best way to get his name cleared is to just shut up and play.

The longer this goes on, the worse he looks for not moving on. Obviously you're never going to hear that from the Cult of Smitty where he can do no wrong, but for those on the fence about this his behavior speaks volumes.

[ed bell]

Gettleman is a prick and it is no secret. The Smith trade was personal, it was botched and it was a mistake. Everybody knew it then and everybody knows it now.

I don't care, it's over but Steve Smith is Steve Smith and I'm surprised he took this long to blow. He doesn't pull punches and he doesn't lie.

He may not "lie", but a raging narcissist will certainly have trouble interpreting even the most reasonable criticism. There is no way his account of what was said is verbatim. Since Gettleman would never entertain this issue, we'll never have his side to compare.

So calling into a local radio show unprovoked to poo on basically everyone you used to work for on the air is being a man?

Am I missing something?

[Cpt slay a ho]

Well truth comes out........if true dg is a sorry ass gm for that move,could have been handled with class

As far as smith getting over its easy to say when YOUR'RE not the one getting release from your're dream job of 13 years

[AceBoogie]

The other irony of this is that Smitty claims to respect brutal honestly... if what he claims Gettleman said face to face with him is true, it doesn't get any more brutally honest than that, so why the sandy vagina?

I don't think his claims about what Gettleman said are true, or even close, I'm just pointing out his double-standard.

He said Gettleman looked him in the eye and basically told him he sucks and he's a pain in the ass, so why doesn't he respect that?

What reason does he have to lie?? He already embarrassed our franchise and the whole world saw it. He doesn't have to throw our lies to make Dave look bad because he did that on the field.

Surely I'm not the only one who is incredibly sick of Steve Smith.  I hate his ass now that he has turned heel.

[BigBoss]

I am not reading all of that. By the length of the post, I don't think you've let it go either. Next time provide a TL;DR.
