Aaron Brooks and leadership

GumboBC · 05-14-2004, 10:05 AM

For the record, I am glad to see BC back on the boards (been meaning to say that for a while now). He always livens things up. However, it makes me wonder at every time \'08 posts something remotely negative, he gets called out on his alleged agenda. Yet this post, which is a purely open attempt to support Brooks (who we all know BC supports - to the death) gets not a peep from the \"agenda-hounds\". Just an interesting observation.....

FrenzyFan -- Thanks for the welcome. It\'s good to be back. I don\'t know if I have an agenda, other than trying to get to the truth about some things. I\'m not saying that I\'m always right, or that I\'m ever right. But, I say what I feel is the truth. Everyone has the right to beleive what they choose. I don\'t know about the \"agenda-hounds\" not calling me on this post -- They seem to be doing a good job --

WhoDat --

No Billy, I got your point entirely... you\'re wrong. Leadership is valued exactly as it should be in this league, IMO. YOU undervalue it and are downplaying its importance. Further, you talk about team talent and how important it is and then show us SB teams from over a decade ago? That\'s not today\'s NFL Billy Boy.

I might be wrong WhoDat. Leadership might be the number one thing you look for when drafting a QB. Maybe that\'s been the number one problem on this team. Maybe if Brooks chewed a few folks out we would have won a super bowl by now and all this talent would have played up to potential. Maybe, Joe Horn and the receivers wouldn\'t have dropped all those passes last year. Maybe the special teams would have been special last year. Maybe the defense would have been one of the better units in the league.

Now, we can belive Brooks\' leadership could have changed all that OR we can believe that something else was responsible for that. I think you know that Brooks\' leadership was not responsible for that nor could have it changed any of it. That\'s why I say leadership is being blown way out of porportion. Like I said, everyone will have to decide for themselves.
