The guy who brought "The Original Whizzinator" into the public consciousness is out of work today, as Minnesota has cut running back Onterrio Smith. His one-year suspension is almost up, but reports surfaced this week that the league was not going to reinstate him. The Vikings will now likely look for a running back in their first five picks.

Anyone know why the league will not be reinstating him?

Haven't heard, Gotham, but I imagine he must have either tested positive again or not gone through with some kind of drug rehab or something like that. What else could it be?
