No one comes out a winner against Father Time, that's just the way it goes. Smith should recognize that, and accept he's now a back up. If the team decides (and God I hope the team decides properly) that Rittich should get more starts, then rather than pout about it, take it graciously, work on your game as a back up, and be a good pro and teammate. That's all I ask of the guy. Just collect your $5M graciously, and please don't sewer the team. The team already gave you all the chances you deserved to win the starting job. You just don't have it anymore.
