Just got back from the Bruce Smith interview that will be on Quite Frankly. Well, actually, just got back from going out for drinks AFTER the show! They don't know when it'll air...
Anyway...
Bruce was totally cool! He left right after the taping, so I didn't get any pics or get to ask him any questions. Thurm & Op--I'm not like that little ***** Jimmy Norton, so that was cool with me!
Highlights:
1) He loves Marv and says he was the 2nd most important person in his life behind his father.
2) Loved playing in Buffalo and loved the fans.
3) Stephen A. Smith questioned him about the hate mail and racist mail Bruce used to get and Bruce said he knew that they were a few bad apples and not representative of all the fans or people in Buffalo. SAS seemed to try to press him to get dirt, but Bruce stayed cool and reiterated that he knew a few jerks didn't represent everyone. He also said Marv guided him through those times by always giving good advice and demanding professionalism.
4) Left because he was asked to take a pay cut.
5) Thinks Marv still has it and will do well running the Bills.
6) Is now running his own real estate development business.
Bruce was very well spoken. It was a good bit. The best part was the smile from ear to ear when the Bills fans in the audience greeted him with the Bruuuuuuuuuuuuuce chant.
