A lot of people can't seem to understand.....why do they hate Brooks so much? Well, I can't speak for everyone, but I can speak for myself. I don't like him because of the way he reacts to adversity....yeah....the smiling thing. When things are not going well, I don't like to get glimpses of the jerk over there smiling like, "Whatever!!"" I don't like the way he pouts about things like not making the pro-bowl, and at the same time he couldn't even get his team into the playoffs. Some people will say it is a racial thing, and, in a way, it is. You see...I don't have to like Brooks, like some people may feel. Some people may feel like, "Hey, he's the great Black hope for some of us...we have to stay united on this one!!" Well, that ain't the case for me. I don't feel compelled to stand behind him blunder after blunder. Nope, I don't have to, and I won't.

Lets all just pick one and be done with it...
I hate Brooks because of ...
A-Attitude
B-Heart
C-Talent
D-Leadership
E-He\'s not Jake

Hate is a bit strong. I am pretty dissed off with him, for sure.
But I go for A- attitude.
I believe his heart is there.
Probably has talent; but does not deliver consistently - with a little help from his friends; i.e. wide recievers, offensive line, MCCARTHY!!!!.
Sometimes shows leadership - like the rest of our senior players really.
Couldn\'t give a damn he is not Jake. I liked Jake when he was here. Thought he did not get a faor chance particularly when AB was hurting. But Jake is history I am no longer interested in.
WHEN McCarthy goes, whoever is at QB (and primary running back) will play better.

These are fairly broad categories. I don\'t agree with the Jake part. I would add intelligence, lack of team orientation and inability to make all the throws to the list though.

:kerry:

hes better then jake and has plenty of talent. he was immature but i think he has grown up. anytime u throw 24 td\'s and only 8 int\'s ur pretty damn good. n im aware of the fumbles. that was really bad. but talking about his ability and talent he has plenty. hes going to be a good qb for a long time

I hate brooks because he back peddles like fifteen yards before scrambling and ends up sacked. Whatever happened too the 1 2 3 drop. If your primary receiver is not open dump it off too your back or tighend over the middle if he is open or if there is a running lane take it. If nothing is open throw it away. The electricity must not go too his brain fast enough too comprehend what the defense is doing for the 1 2 3 drop. Instead he would rather backpeddle 15 yards than try too outrun everyone decides taking the clearily visible running lane. I understand the Nfl game is faster than what your watching on tv but still starting qbs must atleast be able too find the running lane atleast 90 percent of the time.

More Brooks
 

I think I add insticts too that list which would be F.
As far as the smiling thing it really does not bother me because if you show frustration than everyone else will be frustrated. Maybe he is doing an endorsement for Colgate. Everytime he smiles he gets money endorsements from Colgate.

I hate brooks because of his instincts which would be F.

Sad really sad, but it explains a lot.

As this is a football forum, I\'ll spare everyone a long discussion on the relative merits of the 2 candidates, but you\'ll have to explain to me why on earth I\'d vote for the Shrub.

1. He\'s grown the deficit faster than any administration in history.
2. He\'s presided over the largest loss of jobs since Hoover.
3. Bush\'s own plan to reduce the deficit depends on his tax cuts ending, but he wants to make them permanent--what gives?
4. 1000+ soldiers and marines dead and Iraq looking worse every day.
5. Enron, Halliburton, et al.
6. When he ran in 2000 and oil ran at $28 a barrel, he said it was the president\'s job to \"jawbone OPEC into opening the spigots\", but now that oil is going between $45-50 a barrel, there isn\'t a peep from the white house.
7. He seems determined to preside over some sort of theocracy/holy war and the entire Islamic world is up in arms--why is it I don\'t feel safer?
8. Real wages aren\'t even in shouting distance of keeping up with inflation, but consumer debt and bankruptcy are about to sink a lot of folks.
9. If the republicans are \"conservatives\", what exactly are they conserving?
10. The republicans control 3 branches of government and this is the best they can do?

So it makes perfect sense to post a little banner here and there.
:kerry:

Now back to football. If you\'re going to defend Brooks then defend him, but spare me the GOP talking points. :nono:

Oh my the things I could say, but you\'re right. This here is a football forum. Let\'s keep the politics et al to the \"Everything Else\" forum fellas. Gracias.

There are so many errors in you list its pointless to try and persuade you otherwise.
You are the typical brainwashed \'crat drinking that elitist kool-aid.

Never mind facts, those don\'t matter. I\'ll bet you got all those half-truths straight of Terry McCauliff\'s DNC website, or probably MTV.

You\'ll probably end up being a bitter America hater all your life.

I blame you and all your little pantywaste liberal friends for half the deaths in Iraq with your backstabbing and backbiting that started about 2 weeks into the war. Its called comforting the enemy in time of war. Don\'t you find it curious that 70% of the Military vote GOP?

Forge any documents lately? Do you cheer when more american man and women die? Plan on disqualifying some more military votes in 2004?

I hope you can sleep at night and I hope each and every one of you libs get exactly what you deserve and get it soon.

See ya later Frenchie.

Four more years baby. Its the only way to save this country from the likes of you and yours.

:casstet:

I see that you\'ve already made us your mind and don\'t wish to be confused with the facts, but just for fun.

1. I\'m not French, I\'m Oklahoman.
2. Whenever one of our soldier or marines is killed or wounded in action, I am enraged and contemptuous at whoever did it. I have no desire to go to any more military funerals like I did this summer. They are profoundly moving and heartbreaking all at once, mainly because all you can think of through them is, \"He died serving this nation and he died for me in some way.\" By the way, I had friends in the Pentagon on Sept 11 and thank God they all made it out OK. So I\'m not going to take any \"you hate the military\" sort of crap from a gasbag like you. You need to step the hell off before you start saying that kind of crap about me.
3. The document thing is a bunch of crap, I\'m saying look at the record. Nice of you to insert stuff I\'ve never mentioned by the way.
4. I think everyone who is registered ought to vote, military, black, white, green or gold.
5. \"I hope each and every one of you libs get exactly what you deserve and get it soon.\" Geez are you really this angry? I mean really? You want to just go out and off people you don\'t agree with? What the heck happened to \"we the people\", countrymen who can put there differences aside?
6. \"Its the only way to save this country from the likes of you and yours\" Yeah us New Orleans Saints fans are an imminent threat to you.
7. \"I\'m a Proud member of the broken-glass Repulicans and always will be\" So? I never said you couldn\'t do or think whatever the crap you want. I do like to believe that I could get the same courtesy to be a yellow dog democrat though.

All that to say. Rather than look at my argument about Brooks or anything else and respond intelligently, you\'d rather fly off the handle and start spewing things that I never said or think. So I you disagree with me on football or anything else: Fine. Just respond to what I am actually saying rather than just make crap up about me. Oh and if you could--spare me the vitriol. I\'m a Saints fan, just like you.

If you want to make any more crap up about me or vent your spleen some more, I\'m going to post this in the everything else forum. I\'d rather talk about football here.
