People...I'm not talking about YOUR OWN Siblings! I am talking about dating 2 guys that are brothers with each other! Not related to you! And I don't mean dating them at the same time either! geeeez!

Okay, I'm going to answer this a bit more seriously than it seems other people have. Dating siblings in western society has a strong cultural stigma against it. However, it has not always been looked down on in all the world. Many families in Arabia (now several countries) married exclusively within the family, which, while a little disturbing to many modern westerners, was actually a very good thing because their genes were pure, and they kept them that way.
In modern western society however, dating siblings is a very bad idea, for the simple fact that inbreeding is extremely undesirable with the current genetic pools. The problem with inbreeding is that rare recessive genetic disorders, while usually moderated by genetic mixing between two families, are MUCH more likely to occur when inbreeding occurs between two relatives, especially as close as a brother and sister. If either of your parents is a carrier for a recessive disorder, which may very well be the case without your or their knowledge, there is a 1/16 chance that any given child will have that disorder and a 1/8 chance that he or she is a carrier.
In short, while it may be an attractive prospect, and may have been accepted in certain cultures, it isn't in western society, and for a good reason.
Edit:
Well, looks like this is irrelevant now... But I'll keep it up anyways, because it's a good comment on what I *thought* this was about :P

Years ago, I dated the Bobsey Twins. But their detective work revealed my criminal past as the purveyor of moonshine.
They dumped me, and I'm now in a Mormon marriage with some of the Andrews Sisters. I've been a boogie-woogie bugle boy ever since.

That's just how some roll.....bizzle
However the common man frowns upon incest and the products of such an act(inbreds)
Don't hate people and the ways they find love! even if it does come from within the family

Do you mean that you dated someone and it didnt work out so you tried it with their brother and/or sister? I havent done either, I am just curious what you meant..If it is what the previous people are thinking, thats sick ..

Mmmm....cousins. They weren't close though. Just so you know I think I know what you mean and all these other fools are the sick freaks.
I had a friend that dated three of four brothers, that would make family dinners uncomfortable.

Why would we date people in our own family?

Dating siblings = incest.
It is not the way it was interpreted that was incorrect. The way you phrased it was.
