Yea, but you still brag about doing Rosie O'Donnell.

This is a good discussion, and a most provocative topic.

Change my answer back to "no," because I reserve the right to consider character and intangibles in my judgement. You cant compare his effort to that of a Rickey Jackson.

Feel free to tell me why I am full O' crap, and I will put it in my hat and smoke it.

Yeah standin up for what you know is the real deal means a lot..rep for that..gotta be true to ourselves...lol

It's the only reason you got any REP points. LOL

In my opinion he has no business in the Saints HOF. He wasn't a leader and he actually held us back. imho If we had a decent QB we could have been better. I can't recall being as upset with any Saint as I was on bone headed play after bone headed play and stupid mistakes. He wasn't very bright. Not only no but heck no.

easily our best QB in franchise history up until the last 4 seasons

why shouldnt he be in it?

there isnt a single reason why someone could say he doesnt deserve it

because he was emotional? how dare he get upset when 20000 fans are booing him

how dare he throw his helmet and kick water bottles when the team cant manage to hold a lead that he just gave them

aaron brooks was a good QB....not a great QB....not a great football player....but the guy was the best thing we had and now that we are spoiled we forget how much brooks actually did for us

Yes indeed, Aaron Brooks will be in the Saints Hall of Fame, and deservingly so. That playoff win against the Rams pretty much sealed it. I realize he had an up and down time, but when it came down to the end of a game, he always gave the Saints a chance to win. During that era I never really had the feeling that the Saints were ever doomed, despite trailing in a game. More often than not, Brooks would come through.

Bad coaching decisions throughout his career, like going for two points in those 14-10 games in the second quarter did not help, not putting him on the bench when he was obviously hurt, and not to mention the 2005 season in which he had no chance totally killed his career.

I'd put him in, but not on the stats. This isn't fantasy football HOF.

I just can't forget that first season and the playoff win, all after Blake got hurt and most of us probably thought the season was lost. For a guy who we picked up from Green Bay for a song, he had a pretty good career, even with the character and leadership weaknesses.
