From Provine High to Hinds CC to Mississippi State to the Washington Redskins to the Minnesota Vikings, defensive back Fred Smoot has left a trail of words. Smoot loves to talk. What he says is often brash and sometimes funny. And usually his play has backed up his words. But now Fred is quiet. And depressed. On the bright side, his antics on Lake Minnetonka have earned him a unique place in the history of a league full of freaks. (Talk about the gift that keeps on giving.)
