I really couldn't be more pleased. It's personal satisfaction no doubt, but I feel fantastic for Aaron Brooks. He took SO MUCH CRAP - undeserved by and large. By all accounts he is a good person too. Smart guy. Took his football money and invested it.

I hope he shows up and gets inducted in front of a full dome, and I hope he flips off the crowd too...

Gee, I didn't think a thread about Aaron Brooks would catch fire and piss people off. Ten years later and we're still debating this. The Aaron Brooks debate has always divided us. It seems like you either really like the guy or you hated him.

Brooks was mobile and threw a nice ball. As saintfan said, the Saints had very little going for them during Brooks tenure.
Understand this: we had nothing to be excited about since the Dome Patrol and Brooks played a part in changing that. When you spend your life begging for just a playoff win and Brooks helped to deliver that, you're out of mind not to celebrate the man.

I never understood the disdain people had for Aaron Brooks. That said, I would hate to see AB flip everybody off.
