Pierre Thomas' Knee Injury Suspicious
Ummm...something just doesn't feel right about this whole story behind the cut on Pierre Thomas' knee. Jeff Duncan thinks something is fishy too...
And while you're at, call me skeptical about the Thomas 'dog chase' story, as well.
What took so long for the team to tell us the cause of Pierre's cut? And while we're at it, what exactly are the Vegas odds that a football player with a right knee injury suffers a small laceration on that same knee about the size expected needed to perform arthroscopic surgery? Just wondering.
Somebody else in the New Orleans media had the same idea when they asked Payton during yesterdays press conference...
Is a scope a possibility with him?
Payton denied that as a possibility.
It certainly wouldn't surprise me if Payton wasn't telling the truth and if a scope already was performed. And if it is true, lets hope it was for informational purposes only and the diagnosis came back good. Otherwise, it could mean we might be waiting a little while before we see Pierre back on the football field.
Whatever is going on, the most important thing is not to push Thomas into returning too quickly. That would make matters worse.

I heard . . .
he was flown out to Reykjavik, Iceland in the middle of the night, where he underwent a top secret government surgery in which they replaced his knee with cloned tissue from Walter Payton’s knee. I have it on very good authority.

Thomas said that his dog escaped and his leash got caught on a fence and he heard the dog whining…..fishy…..I would say so. Who leaves the leash on their dog. Also why does Pierre Thomas multimillionaire have a hole in his fence. Pierre, if you need to lie hire me next time I’m a professional.
Maybe I was harsh with the hole in the fence, but I do respect the team’s secrecy

There's this little thing
called “sinkage” that exists in New Orleans. Rarely do you need a hole in your fence for a dog to escape.

PT not a millonare
He’s only getting paid around $300k to $400k a year I think. Still, that’s a helluva lot more than I make.

From his Twitter
went to help, his leash was all tangled and when I squeezed through the gate I cut my knee on a piece of the fence. It is nothing serious.. about 10 hours ago
TO ALL MY FANS: I was not chasing my dog or dogs when I cut my knee. My dog was stuck in my neighbors yard and I heard him yelping… about 10 hours ago

Naive as I am,
I never thought of that obvious deception! A) I hope you’re wrong, and B) I hope Mike Bell really pans out this year. What is it with the Saint’s running backs and knee surgery? I know it’s common, but every year, for every first string back?!
On a side note...
that kickoff countdown ticker on the side of the home page is driving me nuts. The number’s so small now, but it moves so slow! It’s like the exact opposite of watching your kid grow up.
"Is a scope a possibility with him?"
“Payton denied that as a possibility.
It certainly wouldn’t surprise me if Payton wasn’t telling the truth and if a scope already was performed."
Would that really be lying, though? That’s like asking a divorced man if marriage is a possibility. It’s basically understood to mean “in the future”. Little gray area there, imo.
Ah, the subtle differences between being dishonest and not being forthright. “I did NOT have relations with that woman. coughshehadthemwithmecough.”

exactly what i was thinking
would payton really consider that as lying if he’s already had it? because if he has had it, it’s not a real possibility of him having another one in the next few weeks lol
Superbowl bound!!!...I hope? Go Saints! :D

I heard . . .
his dog got into some crazy space rocks, like kryptonite and got ultra strong, so he needed to constantly keep him on a one inch think chain leash. And, and, the dog got so excited when he came home, that he pulled the whole fence down on PT, and now everyone is covering it up so the government doesn’t take his pooch away. True story.

Wouldn't YOU get excited if Pierre was your master?

Sorry, Coldpizza, as much as you will hate to hear it, I’m a Reggie fan.

Me, too.
Not a PT fan. PT hasn’t done anything that really impresses me. I just don’t see him being the answer. I do see Mike Bell as a possible answer…
Reggie is awesome. The opposing defense has to account for him and he can always break it for a TD. Thank goodness he’s a Saint!
Can’t say I blame you there, Hooah. He’s a very exciting player. In wide open spaces. What are your thoughts on the Dixie Chicks?

Yeah!
The jacked up hair and country trailer trash look does it for me. Reminds me of Chalmettians . . . with teeth.
