Okay I normally don’t argue with AG. Mostly because I don’t see his posts unless someone quotes his. Even then I don’t. But I have to here.

Comparing Thomas to Colston? Cmon. They are nothing alike. Colston was a hard working, team first player that was always reliable and seldomly injured. He was quiet on the field and off. He let his game do the talking for him. He was humble and classy. He had heart and that’s what drove him.

Michael Thomas is a loud, egotistical show off. He flexes every time he catches the ball, has been seen arguing with staff and players, and doesn’t seem one bit humble. His reliability on and off the field has been sub par in the past several seasons. Money and ego drive Thomas.

He may be a hard worker, but that’s where the comparison ends.

I’ll take Colston all day over a healthy MT. All day.

MT should never be compared to Colston. Ever.

I was going to say much the same thing but I would be argumentative.

Not sure which Michael Thomas you've been watching, but when has he ever been loud and was an egotistical show-off? Have you ever watched his interviews? He is ALWAYS soft-spoken and unassuming. That's the Colston comparison I was making. That and he is every bit as hardworking as Colston ever was. Does he flex after a big play? Sure. What's wrong with that? And when has he been seen arguing with staff and players? His only issues were all centered around that one incident with that slimeball Gardner-Johnson at practice.

Besides, there isn't any player that hasn't had an argument at one point or another with a teammate or coach. It's all a part of the game. Ask any player that has played the game for any length of time.

If money is what drives Thomas why has he agreed to restructured "prove it" contracts? But, I will agree that ego is a driving force for Thomas. He has always said he has worked so hard his entire football career because he wanted to be the best. He says he knew working harder than anyone else was the only way that could be accomplished.

Colston and Thomas are the two WR's that have made the biggest impacts in Saints history. Both have a quiet, unassuming nature in all interviews. Both are known as being diligent workers in mastering their craft. Both are highly regarded by their teammates.

I will give you the fact that Colston was far more fortunate when it came to injuries. He had his share with pectoral, knee, back, AC joint, and foot sprains, but they didn't cost him as many games as the more serious injuries with which Thomas had been forced to deal.
