New Orleans Saints tailback Pierre Thomas wishes he could change the past, but he still sees future in New Orleans

How much of a deal can he get after this past season?! Same deal as last year? And how can a league, with so many specialty doctors, misdiagnose this ankle injury? Might want to look at hiring a new doc that can diagnose correctly.

I can still remember when Shockey came here in 2008, and about mid season the doctors mis-diagnosed a sports hernia injury that kept him out for a lot longer than it should have been, shockey was not best pleased.
Seems like a common occurence with our medical staff.

I've said for years that our medical staff is terrible. They have misdiagnosed injuries for far too long. Some one should check their medical credentials.
Maybe that's why Sean Payton is so closed mouth about injuries........he really doesn't know what's wrong with his players which makes it hard to determine how long they'll be out.

Oh, and PT is the man in my book. Unfortunately he isn't healthy enough to be the only man.

I agree, wish the Saints could get a staff like my Lakers have. Gary Vitti and his staff are one of the best in all of sports.
