Reasons I don't Want Smith to break Payton's record:
1. He is a Cowboy.
2. He would not have sniffed the title if Barry Sanders finished his career.
3. Although I do not question his ability, I think he is faaaaaaaar from the best back ever. He played an entire career behind an awesome line and most rushes saw him 3 yards deep before he had to consider making a cut.
4. His keeping and numbering his fucking TD balls knowing he was planning on selling them to a gullible public.
5. Walter Payton carried a team on his back for most of his career being THE offense weapon that defenses keyed on. Smith was just a part of an offensive machine for most of his career.
6. Smith is playing past his prime getting carries he doesn't deserve in order to reach the record.
