This is going south fast.

What a teammate. What a brother in arms!! I HOPE we're saving his spot at all costs.

Wherever Thomas' name is on the official depth chart, there ought to be a question mark after it.

Don’t believe everything this shady-ass franchise feeds the media. Mike may have been in the wrong but Sean Payton straight up got into a physical altercation with Delvin Breaux because he didn’t believe his leg was broken.

Just curious, but this is all coming from Duncan’s report so far, correct? I’ve not heard any recent statements from people connected to the team, except
for this Thomas tweet. Other than Payton saying the surgery should have been done before now. Just wondering...I realize you said what they feed the media.

Mickey Loomis remarked publicly this past week saying that the surgery should've taken place a few months ago...

And that's why I was giving @CantGuardMike the benefit of the doubt, but then the flags went up...

First, was Mike Thomas Food Giveaway and the Medical Bills Forgiveness program when the story first broke (same day as negative story?)...

Second, this wasn't a dispute of whether or not he was injured, this was not returning calls (no excuse for unprofessionalism)...

Third, if you don't trust the team docs, fine. What was Camp Thomas' plan of treatment to be ready to play when camp started? None...

So this is on Mike. Now, that's not to say Sean and Mickey may not have said or done something to complicate it as they've not the best track record with their Ochsner Docs...

But not returning calls, making follow up appts, not giving yourself option to be ready for camp - Mike takes this hit on this one...

But it wasn't only Delvin Breax that got shat on by Sean and Co; don't forget Westbank (Keenan Lewis) got the same deal - rub some dirt on it, Docs say you're fine Tx...

Nope. I first posted that a year ago. A couple of times since then. It only took five minutes way back then. Surprised you missed it.

But thanks for the much belated clap.
