Gator --

BIASED -- I am biased towads Delhomme. I admit I don\'t like him. Because I am biased, Delhomme is going to have to prove himself beyond all doubt before I belieive in him. So, if I seeem unfair concerning Delhomme, it\'s probably becuase I am. But, atleast I\'m admitting it for the whole world to see. But, I don\'t post anything that is untrue. And, the reason I feel this way about Delhomme is because of the way you and some other members here judge Delhomme differently than Brooks. It tends to make a person biased. At least it does me. I\'m certainly not alone in feeling that way.

NOT RECEPTIVE TO NEW IDEAS -- That\'s not true. I believe in evolution. I think those Ronco inventions are pretty neat. But, I\'m not so sure the earth is round. Seems like we would all fall off if the world wasn\'t flat. I need more proof... :P

SELF RIGHTOUS -- I\'m not self-rightous, Gator. I\'m actually a pretty humble person. But, I\'m not gullible. I\'m wrong some. I\'m right some. And some things remain to be seen. When I\'m wrong, I admit I\'m wrong.

Now, that we have that out of the way. I\'m going to admit I was wrong. It is a mistake for me to talk about Dehomme. B&B was right. This is a dead horse issue and no one is going to change anyone\'s mind on this issue and it\'s foolish to try. I really have nothing positive to say about Delhomme and it isn\'t produtive for me to engage in these debates. So, from now on, I\'m going to steer clear of these debates.

Gator --

I appreciate that, Gator. I also appreciate your honesty. I truly do believe you are highly critical of certain players because you feel they can do better. And Brooks certainly deserves some criticism.

I suppose the reason I don\'t critcize Brooks more than what I do is because I feel like he is overly criticized. And I feel the need to defend him from undue criticism.

When I feel like folks are fair in their criticism of Brooks then I don\'t go over the top to defend him. But, when I feel like folks are going over the top to criticize him, then I\'m left with little choice than to use the same methods to try and counter that.

What it all boils down to is it becomes unproductive when when I only talk about his positives and other folks only talk about his negatives. But, it is entertaining at times and it helps pass the time during the offseason when things are slow.

Make you a deal. I\'ll try to be more positive about Brooks and critical of Jake if you try to be more open minded about Jake and more critical of AB. Fair Enough?

Fair enough. From now on, I\'ll try and be balanced on my view of both QB\'s.

In my mind you can\'t stand Brooks. The proof is there. You just won\'t admit it. For whatever reason.

More and more like Brooks everyday.... in my mind, I owned them all day. Uh huh.

In your mind the Saints were 12-4 last year.
