I've wondered this too. I know of at least 3 'Steve Smith' athletes, 2 in NFL and one in NBA. The Beckett database adds a college distinction for the Smith WR that was drafted by the NY Giants (USC), but it isn't listed like that here. The other Smith of Panthers fame and from University of Utah has no distinction here or on Beckett. I also remember that there were 2 players named Mark Carrier in the NFL back in the late 80's to mid 90's. One was a DB and the other was a WR.
There SHOULD be a variation in the names here for players with the same name (no matter what sport they played) that really identifies the specific player you are looking for!
