Steve Smith Hit Quotations

I got hit out of bounds a little late, and as I was trying to get up, someone pushes me back down. I grabbed the ref and said, 'Hey did you see that?

Part of his strength was people underestimated him. He didn't look athletic, wasn't large in stature and had an unorthodox swing. He hit every ball with a hook but knew where every shot was going. He didn't hit long but kept it in play and he was a good putter. He was one of the nicest guys you could ever meet.

Rodney is a headhunter. He's a free safety. I think he is ... one of those guys who is going to come down and hit the running back in the mouth, knock a tight end out, knock a receiver out. He's one of the guys that, when you are coming across the middle, he's going to hit you, so you have to concentrate.

I think the offense was there, we just weren't able to finish our chances. We hit the post twice. We had one goal taken away. We've been around two years and that's the first game we've won in the final five minutes of a game.

The thing about their defense is that there is no trick about it. We know how they are. We saw how hard they hit and how hard they play.

By making this a weekly must-see 'event', MIDNIGHT MADNESS will carry the tradition to bring live country music and its hit makers closer to its fans.
