"I do have another thing to say, this is going to sound crazy but I want to thank four other organizations. the Kansas City Chiefs, the San Diego Chargers, the Oakland Raiders and the Seattle Seahawks. I know it is kind of crazy, but I played against those four teams more than any other team and their fans were amazing, even though they were booing and throwing stuff. I respected that. That is what the NFL is all about, going into a hostile environment with our coaches, our team and our trainers going in against everybody. It was amazing to be a part of the black hole, going into Arrowhead Stadium with all the fans chopping. In the Kingdome and at the Chargers, going into those environments, I want to thank them for that. That was a big part of my life."

Always Respected Smith
Even if I didn’t like him. He carved out a very good career for himself.
Supporting the lesser of two evils is still supporting something evil.
