This Wilkerson guy is a known hack who got fired from WWL for making up falsified stories.

Lets hope he is well, and the defense will play like it played against the Steelers and all will be well.

No need to HOPE he is well. He is absolutely the healthiest he has been all season. Read this tweet from ...

This report on Brees is so laughably inaccurate that I'm not even going to try and explain why it's wrong.

Drew Brees laughed off a "false" report that he has a fracture and torn meniscus in his left knee.

Brees mocked the WIST radio report, saying he's "a hundred million billion trillion percent sure" it would hurt if he tried to drop-kick a football "with a broken knee." Brees also went into a jumping-jacks routine at his locker to prove to reporters that his knee is healthy. Told that his arm strength has been questioned on deep balls, Brees replied, "I'd like to watch film with those people." Beat writer Jeff Duncan deems the original report "laughably inaccurate."

Well... there goes that.

Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege.

All little common sense goes a long way.

I will say this...I see a good sense of reasonable fans on this site as opposed to other Saints sites and even espn comments. Most of what I read is Kenny bashing and emotional rants about what somebody feels. From what I've read and heard about Kenny is that he does in fact have sources within the locker room and in the past the sources were fired from the staff and Kenny was booted (forced to resign) from WWL Saints Radio...dont think the Saints dont pay for that show, if you even want to call it a show. It's more a show of commercials than anything. I dont really give a crap whether the report of Drew's knee is accurate or not. I was happy with his performance in the biggest game of our year. This gives us a tremendous amount of confidence and momentum heading in to the break and subsequently to the latter half of the season. I would have more trust in rumors than I would in Sean Payton's injury report to be frankly honest. All i care about is the game and making plays, and winning.

I really liked Kenny. He was funny, insightful and had a great radio voice. Its a shame whats happened to him.

It even more shameful that the current guys are worse.

Not a good day to be Kenny Wilkerson. His report saying that Drew Brees is hiding a torn meniscus knee injury has been met with ridicule and skepticism from not only Sean Payton but from Peter King, Jeff Duncan, and most of the sporting news world. Payton called the report "completely false" and Drew Brees not only laughed it off but did jumping jacks in front of his locker today to show that his knee is fine. OUCH! Even if Wilkerson was truly onto something about this injury and the Saints are doing a great job of hiding it, this causes his credibility to take a big hit. No one really believes Payton anymore when it comes to team injuries, but the display Drew put on at his locker was pretty convincing. Better luck next time, Kenny.
