To all Brooks' Bashers.

RDOX, we need one of those smilies that \'s holding a sign that says BINGO. But all I can give you is this:

All things considered Brooks has really handled the situation pretty well. Probably better than I would have.

I for one have to admire the current QB\'s ability to Rise Above .

He\'s a real prince. I think he\'d be more valuable as trade bait, but he\'s a prince among men.

WD52 · 01-31-2005, 04:18 PM

Just to add Fuel to the Fire!!!!!!
our own b&g is reporting rumors of posible replacements for Brooks, If we can get relative value for him...
Kurt Warner is being of intrest to the Saints, and The San Deigo situation has already drawn early intrest from the Saints.. While I would not really want Warner (I would opt for a Rookie first) I think Philip Rivers is really intriguing......

Just for the Record: I am with Whodat, Brooks lacks heart, leadership, football sense, and the whole Team concept... Excellent Strong Fast Athelete, with iddy biddy heart and brain.......

Furthermore it has been mentioned before with great merit, that one of the three Brooks, Horn, or Mcalister my have to be on the last Train outa Nawlins, cause of such high cap numbers, who is harder to replace I ask you......

If you guys had to choose, who is out and who is in!!!!!!!! :shrug:

I wish Halo would produce a \"Brooks Only\" forum. That way everyone can beat this dead horse in that forum, and we can discuss other things here.

saintswhodi · 01-31-2005, 04:22 PM

What would you like to discuss dberce? I don\'t understand. If you don\'t wanna read an AB thread, don\'t read it. Do you feel it is detracting from a convo you are trying to have elsewhere? These convos are titled and you can guess fairly on the content. If some of us would like to discuss AB, I don\'t see why it would be an issue for someone who doesn\'t when they can just ignore that thread.

I was thinking on my drive home that Halo probably loves AB. He generates more posting and thus more visits/hits than any other topic. Look at it like this, over an hour ago I posted a thread about the defense. It had one other person post to it in that first hour. An AB thread a mile long contnues to get posted several times per hour.

The worst defense in Saints history and nobody wants to talk about it. :casstet:

GumboBC · 01-31-2005, 04:48 PM

Fans are passionate about the Saints. But seems most are even more passionate about their like or dislike of Brooks. That\'s hardly anything new about the QB position..

The QBs are the most talked about position in the game..

Look folks.... We hear all the time about the things Brooks has said. In fact, we hear them over and over..

I never hear anyone that cares, or that will take up the time, to put up the other side of the arguement.

There was more to the story than Brooks just proclaiming he\'s great and his team is average. It was all about the Jake Delhomme comparisions. But, no one ever brings that up. I did, and?

No one else talks about the bone-headed plays other QBs make. At least I haven\'t read \'em..

Do we only want to hear one side of the story? Well, that ain\'t me. I\'m going to tell it like I believe it to be.

Dont\' like it? You don\'t have to like it.

This name calling doesn\'t bother me. It\'s just silly.

In order. The things that I bolded.

It seems to me that like selective hearing, you have selective reading. Since I have been on this board, I can recall at least 10-20 disparaging comments about Warner, Vick, Bulger, Delhomme, Culpepper, Leftwich, Garcia, Trent Green. Most were made in response to something that you posted. You then came back with an argument about how good these folks were.

Secondly, with you there isn\'t \"One side of the story\" there\'s 8-10. If Whodi,Who Dat, Myself, Xan, Mutey, BMG, or someone who you like to prod says that Brooks is a man, your next post is that Brooks is a woman and has a 36D bust.

Thirdly, the problem that I continue to have is that I truly don\'t know what you believe, because you constantly are contradicting yourself in trying to argue with other posters.

Finally, your posts are exactly like the behavior of someone who is either severly brain damaged or schizophrenic. That\'s not trying to call you names, it\'s an observation of your posting behavior. It\'s not meant as a slight or a cut. It is an observation of someone who works with people with these types of problems.

RDOX

I don\'t have to explain myself to you.

LMAO.. You need to check yourself.

If you were on most boards.... you would be banned or come close to it. Wheather you think it\'s an observation or not.

In the future... I will not respond to you. And I\'d appreciate if you did the same.

Personally, I\'m just tired of ABs game. He was really bad in all of our last 4 games and he showed what we all knew: he is good enough to lead a team to victories that is holding the opposition to less than 20 points.
He never steps into the pressure. He\'s a flake. He throws into double coverage. How often does one of our guys catch the ball in daylight? Never. He just hasn\'t progressed in his pocket presence. Look at Brady and Manning...both slower than Ab yet more evasive in the pocket. I\'m not a basher, but this year he made up my mind for me. I\'ll take O\'Sullivan. I\'ll take whoever, but this guy just doesn\'t get it.

Last year he killed the picks and fumbled, this year hew did the opposite. We just need a fiery guy with some integrity.....not a weirdo with a cannon arm.

I understand he\'s in a tough spot. He has an uncanny ability to make his mistakes when they will ruin the game for us, where other guys can count a D to bail them out. But, I just don\'t think he\'s a leader. He\'s overconfident when he\'s bad and complacent when he\'s good.
