Politics aside, there are definitely some parallels between the handling of Carr and Biden's medical issues. In both cases someone who was not able to continue was put up for another term while hiding medical issues their team was aware of from the public, money and time was spent on a plan that could not move forward, the press and big events were avoided, then their additional term was ended before it ever started, worse medical issues were disclosed, and they were replaced with a second pick who had very little experience in competition. I don't want to get into politics, but its an interesting parallel that shows people would like leaders to be more transparent but many leaders are more focused on obsessively controlling the optics.

My father died from an extremely aggressive form of prostate cancer that was diagnosed as stage 4 less than three months after getting a completely clear exam. I'm sorry, but you don't have a clue what you are talking about with this latest pile of horse crap.

Don't be so dramatic. This is a forum full of opinions and I'm with Bako on this one.

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.

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.

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.

HIPAA applies to healthcare providers not to the Saints. Tons of teams provide tons of injury updates during the offseason. The Saints did not simply fail to provide injury updates on Carr during the offseason and the Saints have provided many in the past, instead the Saints provided affirmative statements indicating Carr's recovery was going well, declaring they expected him to be their starting QB for the 2025 season. The law doesn't require teams to be silent on players injury outlook in the offseason, and the problem wasn't that the Saints were silent, its that they actively told lies to cover up the truth.
