FWIW, I am a cancer survivor, twice. Prostate and later colon.

Respect, Smash. Colon for me and still clear. It was determined that Dad's prostate cancer was related to being a tail gunner in B-52's during Vietnam. They were used as Agent Orange carriers and a high percentage of gunners died from the same fate due to the residue in the hold. The U.S. military gratefully acknowledged this as cause of death which made things easier for my mother.

I am glad to hear that, Guido.

I didnt say which medical issues. Clearly 46 was hiding cognitive decline. I am not an oncologist. It would not be incredibly surprising if a politician hid other conditions they felt at the time were managable but I am not saying it happened. Regardless, the Saints owed it to fans they asked to pony up for season tickets to be transparent about Carr’s outlook. Instead Loomis has always had the ‘you can’t handle the truth’ attitude and insisted on controlling fans who cant be trusted to think for themselves.

Medical conditions can be very sneaky.

The issue that caused Carr's decision to retire wasn't discovered until he started training for this upcoming season ... well after season ticket renewals took place. It was not the same issue that both Carr and the front office were aware of months earlier. :rolleyes:

The Saints hid the shoulder issue from fans for an unspecified period of time:

Uh, you are aware that "fans" are not required, nor allowed, to be privy to any player's medical issues outside of the active season, right? Probably not, given your accuracy, or total lack thereof, on this issue to the present. The only reason any medical issues can be shared during the season are CBA requirements through negotiated agreements waiving HIPAA guidelines.

The Saints hid nothing that any other team did not share about their players. The Saints did exactly what was required according to NFL CBA guidelines. Nothing more and nothing less.

Take your goofy assed conspiracy theories back to your IHateLoomis.com website and share them with your extensive following.

:rolleyes:
