Dead Money Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 I hope Freddy is not gonna be one of those players thats geta a big payday and then cannot seem to stay healthy but it certainly hasn't been a good summer for him. I loved the guy while here was here but his waif-like frame is something that always bothered me about him. Seeing Carlos penetrate and cut down Bettis was a real brightspot Friday night! I hope he gets healthy but look at it this way if he dissapoints big-time in Minny we can always take him back here as the nickel back in a couple of years! -------------------------------- Vikings | Smoot Will not Play Friday Tue, 30 Aug 2005 21:16:19 -0700 Sean Jensen, of the Pioneer Press, reports Minnesota Vikings CB Fred Smoot (knee) jammed his right knee and he will not play Friday, Sept. 2.
