Brooks looking for a new deal?

Just an observation here.

It would be so much easier to defend Brooks if he never opened his mouth.

By the way, Brooks is scheduled to make 5.5 million next year, 6.25 million in \'06 and 7.25 million in \'07. I don\'t think anyone can seriously suggest he isn\'t being VERY well compensated for what he is putting on the field.

My gut feeling is that Brooks is very competative in things like money, status and prestige. It feels like a sense of entitlement based on what he says. I wonder if since cousin Vick just broke the bank with a mega-deal in Atlanta and other QB\'s in the same draft class (Culpepper, McNabb) have also gotten mega deals, if Brooks doesn\'t feel entitled to a comparable deal in New Orleans.

I just wish he were more competative about winning and less competative about money.
