If you had to play today, could you?"Not today," Smith says.How about Sunday?"If you put a time frame on it, then you're worrying about, `Am I ahead of schedule,' oh, no, I'm behind schedule," he says. "If there's no time limit, there are no expectations."Expectations are what this season is about.Smith was injured eight days ago in practice, running a go route down the left side. It had been a good day. The tightness in his other hamstring, which had plagued him through camp, was gone."I was out there bouncing," says Smith. "Man, I'm back, that's what I'm talking about. I was going for the ball and I was slowing down and I pulled it slowing down."So the pass was short. Peripheral fans will blame Jake Delhomme or Dan Morgan."No, (the ball) was right there," says Smith. "And I slowed to adjust and then it was like, oh, and when I looked at the MRI, it showed."Most of us are not fast enough to pull a hamstring. But folks who are will tell you the injury is infuriating because it's there and then it's not and you don't know day to day or even hour to hour if you can sprint."No matter what your mind is telling you, your body is telling you something else," says Smith. "I can go, but then when you try to kick up that extra gear it's like, oh no."People say, `Take one for the team.' If I take one for the team, I might play two (games) and be out for four, play two more and be out for three."Smith reaches down and pretends to rip the muscle in half."And if I keep on doing it, it's going to tear," he says. "And that's not going to be smart for me and it's not going to be smart for the team."
