PromoTheRobot Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Fred Smerlas on WEEI today: Regarding loss of Vinitieri - No big deal. Adam was declining anyway. (Curiously, it's exactly what they said when the Red Sox let Roger Clements leave) Regarding loss of other players - The Patriots have never made a mistake in player personel. And they won't start now. Regarding lack of activity in free agency - Pats have $20mil to spend. Anybody the Pats sign will be the best player because other teams aren't smart enough to find them. Regarding Eric Moulds - Pats will "pry" him from Bills because the Bills are dumb enough to be taken advantage of. Also Eric will gladly play for any amount offered to the chance to be a Patriot and get revenge on the Bills. Predicted 2006 record: 16-0 And this is a guy we honor on our Wall of Fame????

JoeF Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Couldn't be that he still holds a grudge from Marv cutting him...and more recently from Marv not looking at his buddy Haz for the head coach...nah couldn't be. My gosh, he would never let his personal feelings cloud his balanced, educated and unbiased opinions. Gave me a laugh--thanks PTR.... from Wikipedia just for laughs... Quote from CNN/SI - NFL Football "I wanted him to tell me face-to-face what was happening," Smerlas says. "For a while I wanted to head-butt him to death." Smerlas shrugs. "But who wants to tell a 300-pound Greek he has to go?" -Smerlas on being cut by Buffalo Bills coach Marv Levy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Hint: I believe Beisel is the only one still with the team...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fairweather fan Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 Living in the Boston TV area, I have to endure Fred on some sports shows. I do feel sorry for him, he definitely took too many helmet shots when he was playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven in MD Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 WEEI has a history of having Patriot Homey's. If not Eddie the A*hole it is Fred "I hate the Bills" Smerlas. The Patriots can do no wrong in the WEEI mind. I think Kraft has given them so much money, they just feel the need to continue to lie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golden Wheels Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 Fred gives the Pats a tongue bath because a New England radio station is giving him a paycheck. If he was hired by a WNY radio station, he'd be the same way about the Bills. For Smerlas it's all about the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If WEEI ever criticizes the team, the Krafts would shut them off faster than a drunk at last call. PTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rev.Mattb74 ESQ. Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 I married into a Greek family so I am forced into liking Smerlas. All joking aside he was a great player both before and after the snap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
