How come Favre leaves GB and plays for Minny and he is public enemy #1 in GB, but Hebert can leave NO and play for the Falclowns and he is still loved in NO. I just don't get it...and he will never be the same in my head. I really use to like Bobby before he defected.

The NFL is a business and players have to go where the money is. The Falcons have always liked overpaying for the Saints' leftovers. Morten Andersen did the same thing and most Saints fans here still like him.
I know most of the people here don't feel too good about Joe Horn, even before he went to Atlanta, but I don't have any hard feelings toward him either.

The difference between Favre and Hebert is that Favre is a jackass. He signed with Minnesota out of spite more than just a paycheck. Can't fault a guy for just paying the bills though.

I don't know if you remember, but it appeared that Hebert sat-out because he got beat-out by of all people John Fourcade. He appeared to have an axe to grind with the Saints, as well.

I think his axe to grind was mostly with Mora for benching him. Now that Mora and the entire front office is gone, he's okay with the organization again.

So...by your own admission, it was kinda like, "If I can't play QB I'll take my ball and go home!" ??? And that's not as bad as Favre wanting revenge because he has proven to be one of the best QB's of all time and before he was done he was politely shown the door? Again...I just don't get it.

You do have a valid point. However, Hebert didn't announce his retirement and THEN sign with his former team's biggest rival. He was a free agent and the Falcons offered him the most money.

Remember...I use to really like Hebert. I thought he was a great game manager and very accurate short passer with a cannon for an arm when needed. However, the "flying off the field" incident kinda sealed the deal for me. Sorry, Bobby and Saints fans everywhere, but if Bobby was concerned about his legacy in Louisiana, he shoulda thought twice before he pulled that little routine, IMO.
