Exactly.
Winning teams need all types. I totally understand that they're wanting leaders all across the spectrum but it's nice to have a guy that teases everyone AND can back it up on the field.
I've been more than pleasantly surprised by the effort of Shaun Smith in spite of his off-field and locker room transgressions.
We can only hope that he turns it around and becomes a permanent part of the puzzle.
