Saints = No Leadership

Saint_LB · 03-21-2005, 07:31 AM

This leadership topic is getting complicated. Let\'s see if I got this straight. We are going to make some stew and pour it all over our players, who will be in a pyramid formation, kinda like the cheerleaders do. The only problem I can see is how are we going to get to the top to pour the stew. Also, how are we going to form the pyramid. Do the big guys go on bottom, and work upwards until we have someone like M. Lewis at the top. Like I said, sounds complicated. Maybe we should just try to teach them all about rocket science.

JKool I rest my case. I\'ve said my piece and let my voice be heard on the issue. I\'ve nothing left to give. We are Rocky and Apollo at the end of Rocky I. I don\'t know how it came to this. It\'s gone from a simple debate, to some sort of weird leadership crusade for me. I\'ve even resorted to bizarre analogies that have confused everyone. What\'s next, pie graphs and bar charts? All I ever wanted to do was point out the fact that we nead better leadership. Somewhere though, things took a turn for worse...

I\'ve heard just about everything that\'s wrong with the Saints be blamed on lack of leadership. Mainly because that\'s just how someone feels or because that\'s just taking the easy way out.

If a receiver drops a pass is that lack of leadership?
If a lineman misses a block is that lack of leadership?
If a player misses an assignment is that lack of leadership?
If a player jumps offsides is that lack of leadership?

Sure, we can blame all of those problems on leadership.

Or we could say that we\'ve got some dumb players that can\'t focus. Or maybe some of our players are simply overrated.

gumbo, bignic..ya\'ll kill me...you want smarter players who can lead...but them blast the changes that would get high character, more intllegent football players.

no-we are not going to find a better qb right off than brooks in the draft outside of rogers or smith..but the qb position needs to be upgraded before we will go far in the playoffs.

on defense..we need leaders who can bring what is written in the playbook to the football feild...but yet trying to get another first rounder or even streching slightly to get on of only two linebackers that are of any quality that this is written in their scouting reports is not something you want....

and you wonder why the saints never stay consistent....

No, none of that has to do with a lack of leadership. GumboBC, all of that can be directly attributed to the fact that Aaron \"The Bonehead\" Brooks is our QB. You ever heard the phrase \"Sh*t flows downhill\"? Well so does pure stupidity. Any problem that deals with a stupid mistake can be linked to Brooks, period.

Bring it on, Gumbo...the gauntlet has been thrown out!!

Close to what whodi? I\'ve seen that Gumbo has a soft spot for Brooks. Just pulling his chain a little, no harm intended. :shrug:

Nothing to you bignic. That guy was just for me to duck out of the convo. Much like those world\'s most amazing videos, it will still be interesting to see though.
