Hi Mo, there have been a handful of articles on Smith over the last couple of days. Here's a particularly revealing one:

Smith isn't mad

Here's the interesting part:

So, leave it to Smith to provide the best, sanest perspective on the whole phenomenon.
"Yeah, he got an opportunity, stepped up and made the most of it -- that's the deal," Smith said in front of his locker Wednesday.
"I mean, that's how I got my start in college, it was no different. Guy in front of me got hurt, and that's how I got my first start.
"So it'd be pretty hypocritical to be upset about it. It's just the nature of team sports."
Let the record show that Utah incumbent starter Brett Elliott suffered a broken wrist in the first game of the Utes' 2003 season, and in stepped Smith -- who immediately beat Cal and Aaron Rodgers in Week 2, and never looked back.
Smith went 21-1 in two years as a starter, turned into the No. 1 overall pick in 2005, and Elliott ended up transferring to Division II Linfield College.
Sound a little familiar?
Maybe that's why Smith has been so gracious about the switch to Kaepernick, which coach
Jim Harbaugh insists was not preplanned and happened only because Smith suffered a concussion in the team's ninth game this season.


Puts a new light on what happened in Weeks 10 and 11.

By the way, not that I am asking anyone to debate this now, but I believe the team would be where it is today with Smith under center all season. It's a matter of individual opinion obviously, because we're talking about a world of "what ifs" at this stage.

Canuck - Wow. You lucky, lucky dog! Enjoy New Orleans. I never had much a desire to go there until a friend basically dragged me, and I found I really liked the place and went back for more. Make sure you go to Napoleon House and have a sazerac - no ifs ands or buts, just do it. It's the most atmospheric place in town, best enjoyed late morning or early to mid afternoon the day after a long night out. Or if you prefer to start all over again, go to Absinthe House in Pirate's Alley and have a couple of absinthes. You'll understand where the expression "twisting your melon" came from.
