If we could just have our Starting core...

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I mean, my God. We literally cannot field all of our Starters for some reason. Ever. And today we lost Olave. How can Michael Thomas be such a Pu$$y? If you were that talented you would think you would want ...

If we could just have our Starting core...

I mean, my God. We literally cannot field all of our Starters for some reason. Ever. And today we lost Olave.

If you were that talented you would think you would want to be out there every chance you could get.

Taysom Hill is an athlete. He loves being out there and playing. He LOVES it.
You can call him a QB or TE or whatever position you want to assign him to. But to me he is just a great Athlete that loves to play. Put him on Defense and I bet won't suck there either.

So if Thomas could get his Pu$$y out of a sling and get his ass out there and we field Thomas, Olave, Landry, Hill, Kamara. All at the same time. My God. Defenses would be destroyed. But no, for some damn reason we can't get our starters out there together. And it is so frustrating.

My point in all of this is that I think if our guys were all out there together, we are 4-1 right now even with DA and Pu$$y Pete driving the bus.

Re: If we could just have our Starting core...

We collect older players with long injury histories and when they get more hurt we sign them to extensions and restructure their contracts to squeeze under the cap. We trade our draft picks or take chances on prospects with lots of injuries in college. We cant afford to splurge in free agency so we hunt the bargain bin for vets with injury and suspension baggage. The injuries arent a bug of the way loomis runs the team they are a feature. His early career as a top executive was shaped by the coups of McAllister and Brees both making unlikely recoveries. Ever since then we chase that luck and stack every risk and when some pay off they never all will and it just creates chaos on our roster.

If the RBs don’t fumble we are 4-1.
If the refs don’t screw us we are 4-1.

You complain when we trade up to get two young players. Yet You complain that we hang onto old guys. We get it, you don’t like Loomis.

That's bullcrap. Winston had nothing whatsoever to do with any injury to Landry or Thomas.

Thomas isn't a pu$$y. He's a player with what can be a very serious toe injury. He'd be out there if he could. Injuries are injuries. No player wants them.

And, yes, Taysom is a great Athlete that loves to play, but he too has been forced to sit out due to injuries. Or do you deem him a pu$$y, too?

Unreal.

I pay Taysom a complement and you spin it back around that I would call him that if he were injured. You are something else.
First of all Speedo, you don't know what I'm thinking and you damn sure don't know if Michael Thomas is a Pu$$ or not. So don't act like you know him and every person on the team or their motives. And you damn sure don't know me.

Trading up makes us older not younger. It doesn’t get us young players, we would still have got young players if we kept our picks and held our ground. Trading up gets us one young player instead of 2-3 young players. It makes us older.

Any team could be 4-1 with the right luck and bounces and treatment. But if you think this is a team that is going to go far in the playoffs you are insane.

I doubt the team will go far in the playoffs because the refs aren’t gonna quit screwing us. I know it sure as hell isn’t Loomis’s fault though.

I see you had a little trouble understanding the irony of your statement. Yes, you complimented Taysom, as well you should. Then you turn around and call another great player a Pu$$y because he unfortunately suffers an injury. I simply pointed out the irony that you failed to call Taysom a Pu$$y when he likewise missed time due to injury. At no point did I say you WOULD call Taysom a Pu$$y. Quite the contrary. I was pointing out that you DIDN'T and mostly likely WOULDN'T call Taysom a Pu$$y under the exact same circumstances. And, no, I don't know what you are thinking. I only know what you are posting and addressed that alone.

Have a nice day!

Who Dat! 18-3 Baby!
