T-Dub Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 Rather than relying on Smith to fill in for Peko's production, I'd say it's time for our LB's to step up. Tackling was pretty suspect last week. You'd think that as a linebacker group they'd take it personally when the secondary hits harder than they do..

oldschooler Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 [b][url="http://cincinnati.com/blogs/ludwig/2009/12/09/shaun-smith-the-infamous-hamburglar-is-back/"][size="5"]Shaun Smith, the Hamburglar, is back[/size][/url][size="5"] [/size][/b] Posted by [email="chickludwig@yahoo.com"]cludwig[/email] December 9th, 2009, 3:34 pm Shaun "The Hamburglar" Smith — one of my favorite all-time Cincinnati Bengals — is back. Back-back-back where he belongs … with the Bengals. Back to provide depth where it's needed most — the defensive line — in the wake of Domata Peko's right knee surgery on Monday. Back to bring us his unsinkable, unshakeable, unbelievable, undeniable and unfathomable humor. And back to mend fences, especially with head coach Marvin Lewis, wide receiver Chad Ochocinco and placekicker Shayne Graham. Smith, a Brooklyn, N.Y., native and product of the University of South Carolina, originally joined the Bengals during the 2004 season after being released by New Orleans, where he earned his nickname "The Hamburglar." Back in '04, Smith and his Saints teammate, defensive tackle Johnathan Sullivan, were deactivated for a game at Atlanta. Instead of being anchored in the locker room prior to the game, both were discovered in the Georgia Dome press box, scarfin' down burgers. Smith was released days later and then-head coach Jim Haslett pointed to the "Hamburglar" episode as a major reason why Smith got cut. Later on, Bengals right offensive tackle Willie Anderson — whose investment team owns the "Fatburger" franchise in the Atlanta market — treated his teammates to a Fatburger lunch. Smith was seen leaving Paul Brown Stadium chomping on a burger and carrying a Styrofoam "doggie bag" container with more burgers. Here's a guy who watches the Lifetime channel with his wife; calls his wife and daughter the night before every game as he relaxes with a non-alcoholic "Ladybug" cocktail; and humors his teammates by talking trash to opponents and cracking jokes during games. Smith signed with the Cleveland Browns in 2007 after the Bengals refused to match the four-year, $8 million offer sheet Smith signed as a restricted free agent. He then took out his frustration on the Bengals. In March, 2008, Smith blasted the Bengals at a Central Maryland Browns Backers meeting and unveiled details of the infamous locker-room fiasco at halftime of the Bengals' 31-17 playoff loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Jan. 8, 2006 — a game in which Carson Palmer's left knee was wrecked on a hit by Kimo von Oelhoffen. "He (Chad Ochocinco) swung at Marvin, and hit Marvin," Smith said. "Look at his left eye in the press conference after the game. I was there in the training room. He shattered the training room glass. Then he tried to swing on (wide receivers coach) Hue Jackson as well." After the Bengals' 19-14 victory over Cleveland on Dec. 23, 2007, an agitated Smith blamed Bengals kicker Shayne Graham for Cincinnati's failure to reach the playoffs in 2006. Graham missed a late field goal in the '06 season finale against Pittsburgh and the Bengals lost, 23-17, in overtime. "I blame (Graham) for the reason we lost last year and didn't make the playoffs," Smith said. "That's why I have so much — how do you say it? — hatred toward him. It is what it is. I'm on to bigger and better things." I asked Smith if he was serious. "Yeah," he said. "I blame him. All he had to do was get the snap and kick the ball (against Pittsburgh in the 2006 regular-season finale) and we'd have been in the playoffs. I said the usual stuff I always say. I try to get guys ticked off during the game."

da bizzare one Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 [quote name='USN Bengal' date='09 December 2009 - 04:37 PM' timestamp='1260391026' post='839384'] LOL! It has nothing to do with the shade of the epidermis, but all to do with the firing of the synapses in whatever amount of grey matter the individual might possess. I just really wish that people realized how poorly they portray themselves... and how it affects them in a negative manner. Oh well... to each their own I guess. As along as Smith comes to play and contributes in a positive way, I could care less what he said in the past. WHODEY!!! [/quote] Honestly the guy prolly has to think a lot more to be able to type the shit he does... I mean it would take a lot of work for me to try and type everything like that...

Inigo Montoya Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 The Hamburglar returns for round 2 with the Bengals. Smith's a big body, if nothing else, and the coaches are familiar with him. He actually played decently in 2007 for Cleveland (15 games, 11 starts, 62 total tackles, 2 sacks, 1 forced fumble, 3 passes defensed). I don't have many expectations for him other than being a little insurance in case Peko doesn't make it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwing Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 Jt says he lovs the guy. He said Smith is lud in a funny way and keeps guys loose. He said that he had days in practice that he could flat out hurt people and he put Guycheck on Ir. He believes there will be zero issues with his return.

Bengals1181 Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 jt's thoughts: [quote] Shaun Smith will help December 11th, 2009 | Bengals, NFL I like the Bengals signing of DT Shaun Smith. This move fits in the mold of what the Bengals have been doing over the last few years, getting good veteran players that feel they have something to prove. Shaun is a very talented player. Does he talk too much? Sometimes. But he was never a problem in Cincinnati when he played for the Bengals. The players and coaches loved being around him. He is the type of guy that can keep a team loose. There were times when coaches had to say, “Shaun, shut the hell up.” And there were also times when coaches asked Shaun why was he being so quiet. In my opinion, Shaun’s problems came when the Cleveland Browns signed him to a deal and gave him stability. Shaun felt like he had to be the one that spoke for the team. He felt like he had to talk even more. As you can see, that didn’t work out, not everyone can deal with that. I remember a game in 2007 where Shaun came back to Cincy to play the Bengals, he went up and down the line and whooped every Bengals OL you know what. The day after that game, coaches were telling me they couldn’t believe that he did that. I think Marvin, Mike Zimmer, and DL coach Jay Hayes will get the best out of Shaun these last few weeks. With Peko hurt and Tank not really giving the team anything this season, bringing in Shaun is a good move. He knows that this is his last opportunity to prove himself, and he is playing on a good team that is going to the playoffs.
