Don't mistake Will Smith's low-key response to the NFL's bounty allegations as any sort of acceptance.
Of course the New Orleans Saints defensive end is angry. Of course he feels he and his suspended teammates and coaches were wronged. And even though linebacker Jonathan Vilma has been the most aggressive defender in the courtroom, Smith is still optimistic that he can earn some legal victories as well, including a possible injunction to delay his looming four-game suspension.
Smith has simply decided that it won't do him any good to keep complaining about his situation and "keep all the nonsense going on."
