There's something about Joe Horn...

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; that many many Saints fans inherently do not like. It's evident in the hostility from yours truly and many people on this board. So what is it for me? I don't like what Joe Horn represents. He is the crown ...

that many many Saints fans inherently do not like. It's evident in the hostility from yours truly and many people on this board.

So what is it for me?

I don't like what Joe Horn represents. He is the crown jewel of the Haslett regime, his lone piece of evidence that you can get something for nothing in this day and age of free agency....all you have to do is go get it. The thing is, he was discovered by Randy Mueller, who is no longer here. They have the right strategy, just the wrong people enacting it, but I digress.

It still upsets me that Joe talks so much and runs his yap, yet the casual NFL fan still doesn't know him outside of the cell phone incident. They don't know that he was the NFC leading reciever. Being on the Saints right now, I don't think Joe or any of them have the right to talk as if they are big shots. They haven't done anything of importance yet. When you get to an NFC championship, then talk.

I still think a lot of us have the attitude of "Who does this guy think he is?" After all, he would still be toiling over on KC's bench or out of football altogether if the Saints hadn't plucked him from the edge of obscurity. Now he has the nerve to ask for Top 3 salary? Why can't he be grateful that he had a chance at all?? How soon he forgets.

I think all of his antics would be more tolerable if he was from Miami and was highly touted coming out of school. Instead we have a Joe-come-lately who puts up some nice numbers towards the end of his career and looks to break our bank rather than help the TEAM, which he swears he is here to do.
