I love to hear player quotes like this.. come on peerless, listen to him..

Brooking, who grew up southwest of Atlanta in Senoia and starred at East Coweta High School and Georgia Tech, never wanted to leave the hometown NFL team that drafted him No. 12 overall in 1998.

"I'd be lying if I said the money wasn't great," Brooking said. "It's a big part of this -- no doubt. But the biggest thing is winning championships, and I think we're in a great position to do that."

this is how a negotiation should go.. everyone is happy at the end.

yes, but if peerless listened to him he might become a falcon.

We're in just as good of shape as any teams heading into the draft, free agency, and next season. We've got a great offense (though I hope it finds more consistancy next season), and the money to fix some major holes on D.
