Reporter asks, "Where have you gone Aaron Brooks?"

October 27, 2007

Kudos to AOL Sports for coming across this one first. Bill Rhoden, great writer for the New York Times, not to mention a go to guy on ESPN's Sports Reporters, asked this question in his latest column. Read more. The best thing about the article? He's reminded of Aaron Brooks by what? The natural disaster in San Diego.

Here's the reason nobody's called Aaron Brooks, Mr. Rhoden: because he's an overrated, mistake prone quarterback who thought way too highly of himself and acted like nothing was ever his fault. This guy smiled so damn much after every sack, interception or blown offensive drive I believe #2 must have kept his own dentist on call 24/7 during his tenure in New Orleans.

I've never seen an athlete smile so much in the face of poor circumstances. That's not optimism, folks, that's Brooks saying, "Hey, I'm collecting another pay check. Lucky me!"
