We continue with our "Most Hated Person in Saints History" tournament.
For those who haven't been following along, we've got a full 64-person bracket packed with all the ghosts from Saints past that you love to hate. We're going matchup by matchup, choosing the more hated Saints figure each time, until we've finally crowned a winner as the most hated person in Saints history.
The full tournament can be found directly below. Our next matchup today is between the No. 3 ranked Aaron Brooks vs. No. 62 ranked Onome Ojo.
Your decision can be based on anything you'd like, whether it's on the field performance, off the field antics, or anything in between. I highly encourage those veteran fans to share there memories of some of the older persons in question and make their arguments for or against. Younger members may want to wait and read what the veterans have to say before placing their vote.
To help you make your decision here's a little more info on today's contestants, courtesy of BewareofDog:
Onome Ojo (WR 2001-????) - Mr. Ojo never played a down in the regular season for the Saints. Not one game. Okay. That's it. We're done here. Aw, hell.....alright. He was a 5th round draft pick in 2001 who never made it out of training camp/preseason or the practice squad or NFL Europe for the Saints. He was a developmental player, a project, for his entire "career" with the team. Why? Because he was 6'4"-6'5" (depends on who you ask) 200+ pounds and fast. How fast? Well, that depends on who was holding the stopwatch. Anyway, injuries and other interests (like a brief attempt at medical school and dance classes) seemed to always get in the way.
Oh, by the way. Know how easy it is to get a Super Bowl ring? Onome was released by the Saints in 2002 after being injured in NFL Europe and picked up by Tampa Bay. Although he never played a game for the Bucs, he was on the sidelines wearing crutches while watching them beat the Raiders and got his ring.
Aaron Brooks (QB 2000-2005) - Never heard of him.
