Yeah...yeah... I've heard that story a million times. What I should have said was that when McCarthy and Ted decided to go with Rodgers and part ways with Favre, I was ok with that. As I said, I don't watch college ball so... I never heard of Aaron Rodgers OR Alex Smith for that matter.
I'm from San Diego (hence the name, LOL!)
Alex Smith played at Helix High along with Reggie Bush here in SD. I remember he was SUPER smart, and considered a winner. At Utah, he barely lost, he had a GREAT record. (Sorry, to lazy to google. LOL!) He played in a spread offense under Urban Meyer, he was considered a winner but not a great NFL prospect. Something along the lines of Tim Tebow, coincidentally also played under Urban Meyer. I think some nfl analysts questions A-Rod's attitude, SF went with the "safer" pic and like they say, the rest is history.
