Re: Michael Thomas Progress
That's exactly why I came here myself. Back then I was still working and missed out on so much Saints news. People like SmashMouth was always sharing information and kept me in the loop. Since I retired I have more and more time to sift through Twitter and other news sites and share what I find. Twitter is the greatest source of timely news ever. Back in my newspaper days I remember sitting in the news room and listening for the teletype with the UPI and AP feeds. Times have changed so much in 45 years.

Re: Michael Thomas Progress
Then why look in this thread if you know what’s in it? The way Guido gets some of you worked up it just too funny. No offense to you or anyone else, but I thought this was a football board.

Re: Michael Thomas Progress
To be fair, high ankle sprains are very lingering issues. From what I’ve read, most who experience them have to be in a boot for 12 or more weeks. MT was back on the field after 7 weeks. There’s no way he was healed from his injury which is why he needed surgery. More likely than not the injury was complicated further due to bringing him back too soon. I empathize with MT and totally understand why he did what he did. Doesn’t mean I approve, but all this talk about he did Sean, Drew, etc wrong is total BS. I love Drew as much as anyone, but he retired about 2-3 seasons too late. This team wasn’t going anywhere in the postseason with him. And Thomas could have had his career ruined by being brought back before he was supposed to.

It seems like people just want to forget that he kept the team in the dark about his status. That’s a big deal IMO. |
