SFIAH's Connundrum
Saintswhodi (IIRC) wrote in a thread about the 2005 draft:
Any discussion about the 2004 New Orleans Saints always leads back to Aaron Brooks. At that point the discussion then becomes useless. Take a look at every thread here. Somewhere Brooks is in every one of them. Any consideration to simply agree to disagree on Brooks? The opinions here are polarized to the point that there's never going to any agreement. Simply call off the discussion due to SFIAH's Connundrum: Sample convo...

Well if Brooks had any leadership ability you wouldn\'t have to deal with these incessant conundrums.

SFIAH's Connundrum
I think we get on this subject everytime..because we all know what this kid is capable of doing..and just how well he really can play..we\'ve seen it....he could have been great..and he just fails..plain and simple..I feel bad for the guy..i wanted him to be great..maybe we all wanted it more than he did?

SFIAH's Connundrum
This thread already show two perfect examples of the Connundrum:
I realize that the polarization is the reason that the topic keeps coming up. No one really talks about Haslett staying, because we all agree that he needs to go. But there\'s no concensus on Brooks. No matter which side of the fence you stand, there is a really strong opinion about him. SFIAH |

If AB hadn\'t thrown all those backwards and underhanded passes you wouldn\'t need a thread like this! LOL

SFIAH's Connundrum
SFIAH,
I guess, I don\'t share your frustration with this. The thread to which you are referring has had its moments of being quite pedestrian, but, by and large, there has been much productive communication (and even rare agreements) - usually on issues surrounding Brooks, though not Brooks himself. In fact, I thought you and I held our own pretty well against Whodi, BMG, WhoDat and many other noteables. You really don\'t feel like good things were said there? As far as the connundrum goes, I agree that it is sometimes a little frustrating that you can\'t say very much before someone derails the conversation with something about Brooks. However, I don\'t think it is too hard to carry on a conversation about something by either (1) ignoring that particular point or (2) by coming back to it after a couple of posts. Besides, where else but posts like ones about Brooks can you get someone to use the word \"castigate\". Damn fine word. Furthermore, since Football is a team sport, there is no part of the team that isn\'t a little responsible for whatever happened on Sunday. Thus, I argue that it makes sense that players who played on Sunday will be mentioned no matter what the original point was about - since they are interrelated. And, the Brooks thing is nowhere near as irritating as the guys who follow each other around simply because they think it is fun to pick on one guy or another just because he said something stupid a long time ago (or sometimes not that long ago). By the way, Farve is a QB and so is Brooks. |

We could start a thread talking about how cute the SaintSations look, and someone will throw in:
