HA! I bet you do Joe. 13-0 will do that to a guy.

well this is where he really made a name for himself, here in NEW ORLEANS. im totally fine with it

We forgave Herbert & Anderson...guess we could do the same for horn. He did a lot for the city while he was here.

Sounds like the guy wants to play again. Well, as great as he was, no room on the roster for him these days. If he decides to officially hang it up, I am sure the Saints will sign him to one of those ceremonial contracts and let him retire. I guess if one of the receivers on the roster gets a season ending injury, then maybe take a look, although at this point the Saints would be better off promoting Arrington from the practice squad...

Sorry Joe, no room for you. Appreciate what you did here, but those days are long gone. If any aging star deserves a "pity roster spot", it's my boy Dulymus.

i like joe horn.....but we dont need him.....he is just like the rest of the media......front runners......he is just excited about our run and wants to be a part of it.....he is a free agent for a reason and realizes that his career is all but over.

there is no sentiment left for him here like there is for deuce......joe horn was a great player for us.....but he didnt leave quite the mark that a guy like deuce did

We don't need Joe, but man he played and played well in New Orleans. Obviously he's not getting on the roster, but I very much like the idea of a one day contract so he can retire a member of the New Orleans Saints.

I find it interesting that he's doing this now. Where was he at the beginning of the season when that might have been seen in a different light than trying to leech off the current team's success?

Maybe in the spring, Joe, when it isn't all about you.
