It is a team sport, so yes, if he plays and we win a Superbowl, he would be a contributor.

The person(MT) in the video has hair a bit longer than AK’s.
Just saying.

LOL! Check the video again, mike. That black you are seeing over his shoulders isn't dreadlocks. That is clearly a weight vest commonly used for conditioning and endurance. Google them.

Again, we are going to have to agree to disagree. I am the only one that has mentioned the Brees factor. It is obvious their timing was critical when he made the brief return and caught 0 passes.

I forgot about his disrespect towards Drew, kind of like biting the hand that feeds. This was not a main reason for anything as you seem to think, I forgot all about it until you mentioned it.

These two were clutch together time and time again. That was then, this was now. Time will tell if he can connect with Winston or Dalton, two totally different styles of QB's from Brees.

Injured NFL star Michael Thomas sues landlord over $60K recovery rental

It was a condominium and it "had malfunctions relating to the pool, garage doors and kitchen appliances." He had rented it to have space and privacy for his rehab work.

The article also says, "On top of that, the landlord’s unnamed representative allegedly repeatedly showed up unannounced, which is illegal in the state of California."

How is that a diva attitude? Wouldn't you consider suing the landlord if he refused to give you a refund, as well. I know I would.

The writer is proposing that the Steelers should offer a 2023 6th round pick for Roby.

Defending Thomas you sound like a teenager who keeps getting into trouble and blaming others. It’s always someone else’s fault and never his responsibility. Suspended for fighting? “Not my fault!” Didn’t keep in contact with your boss? “Not my fault!” Problems with your rehab after ghosting training staff? “Not my fault!” Twitter spat with a choir boy future HOF teammate? “Not my fault!” Legal issues involving a rental property you only needed to rent because you ignored your training staff? “Not my fault!” It’s never your fault…”everyone just hates me!”.

We get it; you’ve got your nose so far up his rear you wouldn’t care if he walked into your home and peed in your oatmeal. Now go ahead and label me a hater because I (and others) don’t think this is the way your highest paid player should carry himself. I’ll take Winston’s attitude over Thomas’s any day.

You really truly dislike Mr. Thomas. You have made that fact perfectly clear. Personally, I look for reasons to like people rather than reasons to hate them. To each his own. :chug:

Now you know why I have been on here since 2002 and only have 1700 posts, not worth the energy

Defend him … Don’t defend him … whatever.

In the end nothing matters but the product he brings to the team and the playing field. If he is 85% of his former self … great, welcome back. If he is anything less and has anything but team first attitude … move on.

Making it or not making to day 1 of training camp will be the first real tangible evidence we fans have of his actual recovery progress.
