Aldon Smith's locker is "completely empty" | ProFootballTalk

Aldon Smith suspended indefinitely by San Francisco 49ers - NFL.com

 

[VJCPatriot]

Ouch - from being one of the most promising passrushing prospects in the entire NFL to being indefinitely suspended. What a twist of fate.

Call Lindsay Lohan's lawyer quick. Expert at getting clients back from "rehab" fast!

 

[Sciz]

And probably the worst fact of all... the 49ers waited until AFTER this game to suspend him.

 

[Brady_to_Moss]

ya he may be out a while....he has such great talent too...49ers are in trouble

 

[PatsWickedPissah]

"Moronic Millionaires" would be a great working title chronicling the escapades of imploding NFL players.

 

[jah]

They deserved to get blown out at home for playing him.

 

[Froob]

This happens conveniently after the game. Hmm...

 

[Ozymandias]

Their blowout loss today was karma for playing him.

Smith should have been suspended right on the spot after the incident happened. Star treatment, and you still got owned LOL.

Couldn't have happened to a nicer coach, right Harbawl?

There was no way for the 49ers FO to know that Smith had a substance problem. Unlike that heinous BB, who enabled the "thug life" of the fallen one .

Hope the guy gets himself sorted out.... but can't feel sorry for the Niners, they've had too much luck in the past few years (like no injuries at all)

 

[YearbookCurfew]

At least the 9ers lost the game. If they had won, I would have suspected that he would have played a hand in the winning.

Another troll who relies on the garbage spewn by Ron Borges who allegedly had his hearsay evidence verified by SI.

Kind of like what Matt Light had to say, and then he said he was unavailable for comment... consider the source.

BTW how do you corroborate hearsay evidence?? With more hearsay evidence???

Inquiring minds want to know....

I think/hope that was sarcasm in the post you quoted.

Pardon me, I apologize for not communicating the sarcasm in that post well enough. And yes, Ron Borges is a massive tool.

Well, in fairness to the 49ers, they were facing Andrew Luck today and four of the next five games are against mediocre at best offenses. Medically, I think that makes it justified to wait until after the game. Nothing gets a defender sober faster than facing Andrew Luck.

Yep. the karma got to 'em. But clearly this guy has a big problem. A DUI at 7:00 a.m.? Glad somebody got him to go to rehab.

 

[ausbacker]

Before the game or after the game, it doesn't matter. Smith, by his own admission or the doing of others, is doing the right thing for himself and the safety of others.

Jed York never said Aldon Smith is "suspended." It's voluntary leave of absence to seek treatment. An indefinite leave for 49ers star

[PATSYLICIOUS]

Yeah, bad look for the 9ers waiting until after the game, unless there was some legit explanation other than getting him in against a good offense vs the ones they'll be facing soon after.
