cowtowndick said:so what if he wants to be here - people in hell want a glass of cold water, that don't mean they get it. he might be ready in week 4??? and since when is a knee injury not as important as a throwing shoulder - they're about on par, don't you think? if you can't walk, you can't really throw a pass of any variety. and he was having a pretty sub-par year before he was hurt - what's the explanation for that?
the way culpepper conducts himself (demanding a new salary immediately after getting a monster raise, engaging in a p.r. war with the vikings head office through email and the media) is reminiscent of terrel owens. and sorry, the whole cruise boat thing is a problem - the vikings and culpepper are off to a very disappointing start to the year, and he spends the bye week organizing a hooker/stripper bash? leadership isn't important? whatever reservations you may have about brees, you have to have them for culpepper - they may be different, but equal. and brees will be on the practice field, throwing in july. culpepper won't. and culpepper will cost us at least a second round draft choice. brees will not. reality is they both have positives and negatives - it's almost like flipping a coin.
Well, CowTownDick, I would have to disagree with you by far. Ipersonally would rather have a sprained leg than a sprained arm if I was throwing a football. Seems to me that a Quarterbacks most valuable asset is the arm he throws the ball with. Sure, his legs are important too, but if he never gets his arm back to what it was (and Brees was weak to begin with) then WHAT GOOD IS HE? Of course, a qb can continue to play even if his legs arent as strong as they ised to be, as long as he can make up for it with his arm. Would you rather have A guy who can throw the ball for miles but is limited in his running ability, or a guy who can move around effectively but cant throw the ball accurately or far?
