THIS belongs on a t-shirt...

I hope we never put his ass in the ROH.

I took my Brooking jersey, had a patch put over his name and then had SPOON
embrodered on it.

Went down to the first row during pre-game practice and got his attention and showed it to him. He loved it !!!!!

No more Brooking for me.

Keith was the most invisible player to ever play so long for one team. He was more invisible than most offensive linemen. JA98 has had more impact plays that KB did. Over rated, all he did was talk the talk then tackle you from the ankles or pile on a tackle when you were already down 8 yards down the line. The only memorable thing he did was give up a first down in our playoff game in 08, forever to be known as Brooking 3:16. Spoon already has more impact plays in just a few games compared to Brookings entire career here. Never saw a player on the field so long and just not do anything worthwhile.

Keith Brooking was arguably the worst player in Falcons history. IMO, they should go back and take away his Pro Bowls. I laugh at the thought of him being in the Ring of Honor. Mike Peterson > Keith Brooking.

I don't get the hate for KB on the internet. People act like it is his fault that he was playing out of position and past his prime. Let it go. Even when he slowed down he was still putting up 110% effort, which is way more than you can say about guys like Randy Moss, et al.

The only non idiotic post in this thread barring my own. It is laughable how ignorant these "fans" are that posted in this thread about a a five time Pro Bowl linebacker who is one of the all time Falcon greats.

Yeah, but did anyone see him run down the sidelines flapping his arms like a jackass? Because I do remember seeing that somewhere....

Enjoy suckville, Brooking. Sorry I couldn't be there to mock you in person.

Fook Keith Brooking. He showed his ass to all of us, and the organization responded to that by giving his jersey # away to Spoon - which I applauded.

I could play LB better than him, with one arm and one eye. Dude probably did steroids as well, which is sad because it STILL didn't help him be anything better than the worst LBs I've ever seen.

This guy was a selfless warrior who routinely gave up Pro Bowl seasons to rotate wherever the Falcons wanted to move him, played an entire season with a broken back with no complaints and even two years removed from being shown the door by the Falcons some people still can't let it go. Pathetic.

Btw Keith was one of the few Cowboys to have a good game last night on defense. I guess watching him make tackles, almost recover a fumble and get an interception wasn't seen by some people.

Hey Keith...... nice of you to drop in
