Geno Smith to start for the Giants (https://chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=311884)

Quote:

On Wednesday, ESPN analyst and former NFL safety Ryan Clark said that Smith wasn't apologetic about owing money, and he had put his finger in Enemkpali's face and said, "you're not going to do anything about it":

"It became about the fact that Geno wasn't necessarily apologetic, and being, in a way, remorseful about the money, when saying he was going to pay IK back. You know, he didn't, and he was rather smug about it. So these guys got into it earlier in camp about this money. My report says Geno put his finger in [Enemkpali's] face and told the guy, 'Well, you're not going to do anything about it.'"

Clark also said it wasn't the first time a situation arose between the two players, but the first incident ended with both players walking away. Clark reiterated on Twitter that while Smith didn't deserve to be punched, it also shouldn't be considered a "sucker punch":

Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News also spoke to players on the Jets who said Smith "deserved" to be punched:

Smith "was up in (Enemkpali’s) face and pointed/touched his face," according to a source.

"Geno deserved it," another source said.

...

It’s unclear how matters escalated, but Smith’s finger-pointing in his teammate’s face was grounds for a punch, according to some.

"That’ll get a man hit every time, especially one that hasn’t earned respect," a source said.

In the immediate aftermath of the fight, cornerback Darrelle Revis said he holds both players responsible, which was the original suggestion that perhaps Smith wasn't blameless in the incident.

As Clark said, Smith didn't deserve to be punched — and certainly not forced out for half of the season in what many consider a make-or-break year — but it sounds like he didn't act responsibly. Very few Jets players have come to his defense since the incident.

Geno is a scum bag and so are his fans. Go eat free World Series tacos bitch

I understand it...perfectly.

Yes, your explanation is much more likely than "incompetent coach is incompetent"

Until you realize this team's last two + regular seasons...which resulted in a 27-4 streak. They have run this same offense for years. Reid isn't incompetent...he's following orders as is MaCadoo and McDermott. Who do you think pays these guys bills...signs their checks?

Do you really think MaCadoo was just sitting around...and thought "Gee, let's bench our 2x SB winning NY legend QB for Geno ****ing Smith...We are 2-8, half of our team is on IR, and need a spark. Geno will pull us out and save my job"...here is the kicker...Manning is the back-up for this game.

This is ONE Corporation...whose main life-blood is advertising revenue. They are in business TOGETHER. They need late season drama...and sell hope. Only the fans give a shit about rivalries...Hell, Smith was playing golf with Elway. The joke is on the gullible fans...scratching their heads about benching Manning or searching for reasons why KC looks so terrible.

This about one thing...and one thing only. Getting the teams with new stadiums/markets into the post season hunt....
