Steve Smith was suspended for 2 regular season games by the Carolina Panthers for not giving 100% in his fight with teammate Ken Lucas. Smith, who is the team's number one receiver got into an altercation with Lucas during a scrimmage and punched him in the nose. But x-rays showed that the punch was not Smith's best effort. "I've seen him in some bar fights before, and this was not his greatest effort," said head coach John Fox. "X-rays showed only 2 or 3 breaks in the nose, and simply minor surgery will be needed to fix it. If you want to be a starter on this team, you better leave your opponent in a near coma. Hopefully Steve will learn by sitting out a few games." Lucas meanwhile has been promoted on the depth chart to number one pansy, for leaning into the punch so well, and making sure to offer up no resistance to the beating.
