Dear NYTimes, don't ever write about football again.

This drivel about Aaron Brooks is the worst kind of victimization writing I have ever seen.

Quote :"I have no doubt that Brooks’s stinging criticisms played a role in his difficulty in returning to the N.F.L."

Are you kidding me? NFL players rape, drive drunk, do drugs, beat people up in bars, murder people, and get caught with hookers the night before the Super Bowl, and they get to play. If you are better than the other players available, you get to play in the NFL, no doubt about it. You think a few comments about Katrina are going to keep you off the team?

This tool, William C. Rhoden writes

"He(Brooks) felt Tagliabue should have visited the Saints' players in the weeks after the hurricane." For what? Hugs? I'm sure whatever Saints players lived in LA were fine, they could probably afford a plane ticket or a hotel room. It was the people not making at least $250,000 a year who needed help.

Poor Aaron Brooks. According to the Times, just another victim being persecuted for speaking his mind.

Tell ya what NYT, stick to writing about fashion and Broadway celebrities and politics or even baseball, and don't ever write about football again.

As I mentioned before, I'm sick of the FOX brocasts.

Dr. Z of CNNSI thinks so too, and it saves no love for ESPN either.

While I am on the topic of Kimmel and the MNF booth, I may as well talk about the FOX broadcasts. They Suck.

I used to be a fan. When FOX first got NFL games they were innovative and exciting. Does anyone remember waiting until the commercial to see the score? Then FOX came along with the graphic showing the score all the time.

Nowadays I don't know what it is, but you can hardly even get a replay on FOX. They are more concerned with sideline announcers and all their distractions. They don't even pay attention to the game.

Look, I know I am coming off like an old bogey, but FOX is getting ridiculous.

Get two people in the booth who know football, lose the sideline announcers, and replay every play. First down markers are sweet, but I would choose a replay from a different angle after every play, and tell me what happened, went wrong.

Jimmy Kimmel was banned from MNF for his comments agains Joe Thiesman.

See FOX for the nitty-gritty.

I applaud this move. I am sick of actors coming into the booth during the game and distracting from the action.

Get out and stay out.
