Great Nicks leaves practice; Frankin has MCL sprain

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Per Bobby on WWL. This is just great. Our Oline is already thin enough and not doing its job. Brees is going to be running for his life this year....

I don't know what to say...

Until I see what the details of the injury are, I'll hope for best...

EDIT: Mike Triplett tweeted that he walked off the field under his own power, injury unknown

Our team is made of glass.

If you think its just coincidence or bad luck after 3 or 4 years of this happening you're smoking some really bad crap.

Something needs to be done with our strength and conditioning department. This has been a trend since day 1 of the Payton era and has to my knowledge never been looked into. These sports hernias for one thing are rediculous, and key players going down in practices are commonplace. I don't get it.
