oraphus Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 It was quite a grab by Anderson with a defender all over him. I give him a lot more credit for the TD than the gutless turd with poor mechanics who I also understand does not tip well in restaurants. i hear he hates babys and burned the american flag too.... i put him right up there with Ben Ladden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raider.Nation Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Get back to me after this season. You'll see. Hey I haven't jumped on his bandwagon yet. I think it was a solid pickup for the Raiders though. They needed a guy to come in and make some plays on offense for the next couple seasons until Walters is ready to step in there. And although after watching last night's game, I'd still say that Brooks has to be the starter in week 1. Walter just isn't there yet.

Fatman Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Last year in the pre-season, the Steelers, and especially Roethlisberger were pathetic. There were millions of posts on here calling him a one-year wonder, and predicting doom for the Steelers.......we all know how that turned out..... So unnecessary! Jeez, Menudo!

Coffeeman Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 (edited) My disgust with Aaron Brooks is unbounded. Thank the fact that I own Deuce McAllister in my local dynasty league and have had to watch that clown single-handedly destroy the Saints scoring opportunities. You and me both, Hook. He cost me a championship a few years ago when I only needed +2 points from him - he got a -1 with turnovers! Ricky Ricardo will never be on my FF team again, even if he was the last QB on earth... Edit: HA-ha - a s s clown became Ricky Ricardo. classic... Edited August 7, 2006 by Coffeeman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menudo Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 So unnecessary! Jeez, Menudo! Easy mr. sensitive, I was just using an example of how little the pre-season means.

ROYALWITCHEESE Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 I really don't understand all this hate for Brooks. Until last year he has always put up huge numbers. It's clearly just hate. If you are going to rip Brooks, then throw in Favre, Plummer, and Delhomme. They all make equally stupid plays and throw a lot of picks. But alas the other 3 are white and don't recieve the same criticism..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainHook Posted August 9, 2006 Author Share Posted August 9, 2006 (edited) All I'm saying is that they all make the same dumb decisions on the football field. I've not seen too many quarterbacks try and pass the ball back to an offensive lineman as they are being sacked, throwing the ball twenty yards into the backfield. I've not seen too many quarterbacks laughing as they leave the field after throwing a horrible INT. I've not seen too many quarterbacks yucking it up on the sideline when their team is getting smashed by 30 points thanks to their incompetence.

See this is exactly my point. You are making excuses for the man who has made more mistakes than anyone the last two years! What a joke you are! Actually, I wasn't referring to Brooks fantasy football abilities at the outset. I just think he is a terrible quarterback period. Because of this, I don't draft him in fantasy leagues. Just because a guy is a starting QB doesn't mean he's a good fantasy player. I wasn't making excuses for Favre. Just stating there is a big difference between Aaron Brooks and Brett Favre. YOU lumped them together. If you don't see the difference between the two guys, their coaches did. Brooks was once Favre back-up, yet they traded him away. . . What generalizations have I made? You need to learn how to use the English language, then you wouldn't sound so stupid. And you resort to name calling. How predictable. Tell it like it is and feathers get ruffled. True colors begin to show. What generalizations???? How about the generalization that I am coming down on Brooks because he's BLACK? Did you forget that one? Calling people racist ain't gonna win you many friends here. Because of that, I think you are a jackass. You don't know me. You don't know anything other than that I don't like Aaron Brooks. And that makes me racist? You sir, are still a dumbass. And by the way...how can I be white and play the black race card? Genius.... It's quite simple.

Again with the hate. Yeah Brooks is totally and completely responsible for losing every game. Jeez you have some repressed anger. Go hit a punching bag if you can get off your fat ass. I mean, that must be nothing like throwing repeatedly into quadruple coverage. Uh um Favre, Delhomme... At least he has never thrown 20+ INTs. Uh um Manning. Manning is one of the biggest chokers ever, and the Colts will never get to the SB with him..... I have seen Plummer do exactly what you are accusing Brooks of. Where's your Plummer hate thread??? The fact that you can't see the similarities from the FF perspective shows how ignorant you really are. You think I care about friends on a message board? Evidently you have an unfulfilled life, judging by your post count.

Here you go hook: QB Roethlisberger Has Rough Practice Mike Prisuta, Pittsburgh Tribune-Review Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger's first pass of 11-on-11 action was caught by tight end Heath Miller, who pulled the ball in one-handed. But linebacker James Harrison tomahawked it loose with a vicious chop from behind, and cornerback Deshea Townsend scooped up the fumble and returned it for a touchdown. Roethlisberger's second pass, a deep ball to wide receiver Cedrick Wilson, was overthrown and intercepted by strong safety Troy Polamalu. Uh oh. Ben made a bad play in preseason. Tear him to pieces!! 31 B. Favre QB, GNB 372 607 61.3 3881 6.39 59 20 3.3 29 4.8 24.0 170 70.9 32 A. Brooks QB, NOR 240 431 55.7 2882 6.69 66 13 3.0 17 3.9 33.0 202 70.0 Wow you're right!

Favre stats are on a weak team, no offensive weapons, no offensive line, injuries. Brooks - all kinds of offensive weapons, better than average offensive line last year, some injuries but not as many as GB. Brooks has been a very poor NFL QB. Fanstay wise so! so! He can put up good numbers for 2 straight weeks then completely suck for 3 weeks, good for 1, etc. Plus if you play in a league that subtracts points for turnovers for those off weeks he puts you in the negative. So those stats you have there, just show that both are poor FF QB's. But when Favre had a team around him, Brooks could'nt even come close to Farve even on his best day.......

If these guys keep playing like this, there will be hard cuts to make." The above quote is from another post. "Saints Camp notes 8-9" Notice the Brooks reference......

Whatever you inflect on my words is in your own head. I said Brooks gets the bad rep more than the others because he is not white.... 2)Manning chokes every year 3)Brooks is a "turd", but Plummer is just "not very good"? LOL 4)Moron is spelled M-O-R-O-N. For someone who likes to fling insults, you would think you would at least know how to spell them. Especially the small words. 5)If you are married, I feel sorry for your wife.... On a side note, neilfish: I guess you missed the McAllister and Horn injuries last year huh?
