Super Bowl champion Will Smith, the former Thomas R. Proctor High School star from Utica who helped the New Orleans Saints make history with their 31-17 victory over the favored Indianapolis Colts in Super Bowl XLIV, returns today for his nonprofit's organization's second annual “Evening of All-Stars.”
Smith, a six-year NFL veteran at defensive end and one of the Saints' captains, and his “Where There's A Will, There's A Way” foundation will be honoring the Observer-Dispatch's All-Mohawk Valley Football Team during tonight's dinner at Daniele's Banquet Facility in New Hartford.
Doug Marrone, the head coach of Syracuse University's football team and a former Saints assistant, and former Proctor and University of Pittsburgh lineman Penny Semaia will be the guest speakers.
This will be Smith's first appearance here since the former first-round draft choice helped New Orleans capture its first Super Bowl title Feb. 7 in Miami. Oneida County Executive Anthony Picente also has proclaimed today as “Will Smith Day” in Oneida County.

I don't see what the big deal was. Obviously, it was a legal play. Peyton didn't say anything. He wasn't trying to make the tackle. He might've been able to slow Tracy down, but he knew there was going to be a price to be paid. … Tracy cuts back, Peyton realizes I'm there, and he turns his back as I'm giving him a gentle shove. I didn't even know it was a big deal. (Manning) didn't say anything. He knew he wasn't going to make the tackle. It looked a lot worse than it was.
