Fred Smoot Breaks Down The Definition Of Swagger

What is swag? Who has swag? What does having swag entail? These are important questions and, luckily, Fred Smoot is here. After the Washington Redskins' 22-21 win over the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday, Brandon Banks discussed his team's swag, and Smoot chimed in with a small correction.

“I think we’ve got more swagger,” Brandon Banks said. “We’ve just got a different swag about us.”

(Banks said coaches have a bit more swag, too, although Fred Smoot then interrupted, saying “when you’re over 30, you can’t have swag. You have what we call panache.”)

Having Smoot on the post-game set is the best idea ever. After the jump, video of the hilarious exchange.

Fast foward to the 2:50 mark.

Panache. I never knew swag and panache were synonymous, but thanks to Smoot, I learned something today.

In all seriousness, if Smoot isn’t hired by a national network to work a pre- or post-game show, something is wrong with the world. Make this happen, Fox. The entertainment value is off the charts.
