JoeBucsFan reports about an interview that former Patriots LB Teddy Bruschi did where he mentioned that former Bucs LB Derrick Brooks is not a first-ballot Hall of Fame LB. Here’s the story.
Rumors of Tedy Bruschi taking a shot at Derrick Brooks on ESPN were swirling out there for more than a week, and the dean of Tampa Bay sports radio, Steve Duemig of WDAE-AM 620, fielded his share of calls about the slam. Bruschi said on the air that Brooks is not a first ballot Hall of Fame selection. Brooks acknowledged he was aware of it and said “some things are better left unsaid.” However, Brooks kept talking anyway. “My resume says it all,” Brooks said. “[Bruschi] has an opinion and I give it to him. …If he’s wrong, he’ll hear it from me. It’ll be three years of pent-up” anger. Brooks is eligible for induction in three years. Of course, every Bucs fan knows Brooks was a five-time All-Pro, earned a defensive player of the year award, was an anchor of arguably the best defense the NFL has seen and didn’t miss a start in his final 13 seasons and made 11 Pro Bowls.
