Re: Michael Thomas Progress
 

What you are demonstrating toward Thomas IS akin to hatred. Not just simple criticism. Hell, you repeatedly call him an a$$. That isn't criticism. That displays pure dislike (aka hate).

Tell me this, in what way do you consider that Thomas is an a$$? What has he done that affects you so deeply that you cannot "forgive him for his transgressions" and move on?

And if I am antagonistic it may be because I am returning in kind. Can you honestly say that you, and others, are not constantly antagonistic when it comes to Michael Thomas?

I shouldn't have to defend the guy, just as I shouldn't have defended Manti Te'o, but I will because I feel he's getting a raw deal from some people.

No, it’s not. It’s speaking my opinion about his past actions. It’s something you use as an excuse to Label people and discredit their viewpoints so you don’t have to engage them in rational dialogue. I’ve pointed out what Thomas has done that bother me before. You obviously didn’t read them before. I’m not gonna type them again.

How is it that I hate Michael Thomas when I’ve said I hope he comes back to the team and breaks records and leads us to a SB? How is it that gnome, and bako, and me, and anyone else who doesn’t suck up to and kiss Thomas’s butt is a hater? You are a dishonest manipulator Guido. saintfan had you pegged.

Re: Michael Thomas Progress
 

You have absolutely mentioned what Michael Thomas has done, or more precisely what you believe he has not done, that bothers you before. Many, many, many times, ad nauseum. That's what I'm pointing out. We all know how you feel about Michael Thomas. You have made that perfectly clear. So why not leave it at that and move on?

As for y'all's feelings about Michael Thomas, would it make you feel better if I just said "dislikers gonna dislike"?

:D

Re: Michael Thomas Progress
 

Does it really make sense to have multiple posters accommodate for one guy that agitates so many?

Re: Michael Thomas Progress
 

I can count on one hand the posters that I seem to agitate.

Re: Michael Thomas Progress
 

Again, you are under the mistaken opinion that I care about what you do. YOU asked me about my thoughts on Thomas. You have posted MANY tweets about how good Thomas looks. You said that you and rez were in the know. Seems you care a whole lot more about what people feel about Thomas than what people actually feel about him.

Re: Michael Thomas Progress
 

Say what? :confused:

Re: Michael Thomas Progress
 

Come on Guido. It’s reading comprehension. You can do it!

Re: Michael Thomas Progress
 

You have more than 5 fingers on your hand??!!

Thats like Antonio Alfonseca. Super cool!

Re: Michael Thomas Progress
 

I hope that every time that I remove Boston from "ignore" that this will be the time that everything doesn't turn into to an argument with him. I need a break until regular season.

Re: Michael Thomas Progress
 

Stop trying to play the victim. You instigate every argument that occurs on this board by talking down to members when they have an opinion.

Re: Michael Thomas Progress
 

He dishes it out but he won’t take it.

Re: Michael Thomas Progress
 

Diz, believe it or not, I respect everyone's opinions. What I may have an issue with at times, and sometimes address when I can't hold my "tongue", is when those opinions are supported by inaccuracies. A perfect example of this was just a couple of days ago when you said that it was a good thing that we had Dalton available behind Winston. I totally agree with that assessment. But you added that you had seen mentioned that Winston had thrown "quite a few picks recently" in practice. I don't doubt you heard that somewhere from someone, but I knew that couldn't be right.

That's what I questioned about your statement. It had nothing to do with your opinion at all. In fact, if Winston had actually thrown quite a few picks recently in practice I could see that as a valid support for your opinion and would wholeheartedly agree with it all and make your opinion even that much more agreeable. All I questioned was where you had heard these "mentions" of quite a few picks by Winston. I knew he hadn't even taken part in passing activities in two weeks and really could not remember seeing any reference to anything more than a pick here or there in 1 on 1's or maybe 7 on 7's prior to that. Today I saw where he threw his very first pick of training camp in the team drills (on a great defensive play by Ceedy, by the way!).

I am truly sorry if you felt I was talking down to you. All I was trying to do was to keep information being shared here as accurate as is possible.

Once again, I apologize.

This thread ends when the season begins.

Come 9/11/22, his "progress" and our debate about it, is complete.

Re: Michael Thomas Progress
 

You Optimist. You just KNOW there'll either be a "Eating Crow" thread or a "I Told You So" thread once this one dies. LOL

Re: Michael Thomas Progress
 

I think most agree (including me) a healthy and productive MT makes this team better.

But if anyone is so fragile they need a way to validate themselves to us, there will be link available.

doubt it.... up to the rumor spreader.... ya know him; "Wilson has food poisoning":dunce:

Re: Michael Thomas Progress
 

In the words of the great-Louisiana, poet and philosopher Boosie Badazz, Michael Thomas is about to "touchdown to cause hell". Co-comeback player of the year with Jameis Winston.

Ice, this statement reminds of a song written by a rapper named 2Pac.
- The realist S&&t I ever wrote-.
I still gives me chills every time I hear it.

Re: 2022 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

RIP to Pac.

I want nothing more than for both of those statements to be true Rez.

I think that we ALL do. Including Mapcow.

If we go QB next year in the draft this is who I want.

I can count more than that on one page in 90# of the threads posted here.

Those with a predisposition to agitation don't count.

A$$es gonna be a$$es. Guido is living proof.

Rashid Shaheed (UDFA) ...

Likely a redshirt season for the rookie.

Re: 2022 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

Yeah. Even though he may be the most dangerous returner left we still have very capable returners in Harty, Callaway, and Hill that should be locks to make the roster at their primary positions, as well.

Re: 2022 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

Re: 2022 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

They can trade Vannett, but not at the expense of the Dolphins TE, IMHO. I'd rather keep Krull and the rest of the gang. Trautman seems to have improved.

Re: 2022 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

The cut to 53 is going to be emotional....
