"In Vino Veritas" - In Wine there is Truth. In Aldon Smith's case "Nullus Vino Veritas", or in sobriety there is truth. I'll copy his quote below and let the CBZ software filter out the curse words.
Follow up question - what could Marvin Lewis and a year of conditioning do with Aldon Smith's physical talent?
Full Quote:
“We have a talented group of people,” Smith said. “I think it’s really important for everybody to embrace and take pride in what they do. We can be great. We’re going to be great, we just need to believe in ourselves. We just need to work a little harder. And it’s a culture.
“I’ll explain it as simple as this, we suck right now,” he said. “But you want to know what, we have the guys on my team, I love these guys. We haven’t made the plays we need to make, but we will. Stick along for the ride. **** happens. Bumps and bruises happen. But we’re going to get better. We lost a lot of key components that built the team. I’m just so excited about every single person that’s on this team and that we can make it work in the future.”
The final question Smith answered was about if he felt like he had to relearn the game after not playing the last four seasons.
“The most difficult part has been the ******** that you have to deal with,” Smith said. “It’s not the physical. It’s the ******** you have to deal with. By the ********, I mean, everything that comes along with playing the game. … I just want to be blunt, people deal with ****.”
