I've proven that you have no way of arguing the merits of any player in the NFL. I've made assertions regarding a certain player. Those assertions must be taken as admitted by you since you have nothing to counter my argument.
See if you want to argue "proof", you've really picked the wrong guy to argue with. You've mentioned "burden of proof", which I will take as a legal term of art. In our legal system, when one party makes a factual averment to another party, and that second party does not dispute the factual averment made by the first, then that factual averment is taken as admitted by the second. So you see, I've made my assertions. You've offered nothing to counter those assertions. In our system of jurisprudence my assertions would be deemed admitted and my assertions would be taken as established, thereby constituting the requisite level of "proof" to win my case. So by refusing to dispute my claims, you have essentially admitted that Aaron Brooks is the best QB in the NFL. Congratulations.
See, you keep trying to skirt the real issue here. You have backed yourself into a corner that you can't get out of. If statistics can't be used to argue a point regarding players in the NFL, then you can offer nothing to me to dispute my assertions. If we were to accept your views on statistics and their propriety in professional sports discussions, then all of us would be left making unsupported claims about players that simply could not be refuted. Hence the reason you cannot offer any argument against my statement. Statistics make the difference between bald, unsupported assertions and reasonable arguments regarding players.
