Brooking showed a lot of class

On the play with McNabb slowing up towards the side line and Brooking was in a position to blast him and he pulled up and let McNabb step out of bounds. I was a bit surprised but then though about the character Keith has and thought it was a classy move.

I noticed that too, and I don't think "The Mad Backer" held up just to be classy. He would've likely been flagged for unnecessary roughness had he blasted McNabb on his way out of bounds.

I yelled when Brooking did that. McFart was 2 yards in bounds and what the hell was he slowing down for? He was baiting Brook and Brook didn't fall for it. I wish Brook would have "stumbled" and head butted McGroin in the coccyx.

Exactly. I'm sure he wanted with every fiber of his being to take a big shot on McFlabb, but he knew the risk of a personal foul was too great.
