Bobby Hebert said he hopes Eli Apple goes to IR

FinSaint · 12-25-2019, 08:08 AM

Apple went through the "Crawley experience" of innitially ballin' out and then regressing to a hobbled PI machine.

I wonder if they are just other fine examples of the Saints' injury treatment in the vein of Breux.

I don't think he should be fired, but it was a dick thing to say and is nothing to do with being politically correct. It's just about people thinking wishing an injury on someone, especially a team member, isn't a decent response. Has Eli been playing poorly,? Yes. Do we have the right to call him on it? Absolutely. Can we wish ill on anyone we want? You bet. But, are there reactions/consequences to what we say? Of course. We can also say/demand he get fired if we want. But it doesn't mean he should/will be.

Eli was hurt in the endzone 'defending' against the 2nd TD the Titans scored.

Precisely. Eli was already down and hurt. No one wished for doubly hurt lol.

IR = A status... Not an injury.

Had Eli been healthy and Hebert wished someone would hurt him then that would be chicken****.... I don't care for Bobby but I am not going to start twisting anyone's words or intent.

More than one person in these forums on more than one occasion has commented that a specific hurt player should be put on IR... No difference.

Bobby is a drunk and a moron but that's about all he is guilty of.

This is the place Major and I had arrived through Black & Gold posted discussion...

Couldn't understand how Eli could ball out and suddenly becomes a liability and Major recognized and pointed to the injury Apple sustained during the Chicago contest...

It's obvious that some people will never get it and will use freedom of speech as an excuse to do just about whatever they want.

People using the 1st to justify saying what ever they care to are fairly ignorant of the Bill or Rights in the US Constitution. The Bill of Rights do not grant freedoms they limit Government which is why they are not called the Bill of Freedoms.

They also do not grant any sort of protection from persecution, only prosecution..

That said..

Freedom = Doing what ever you want. (Persecuting people making bad decisions is also part of how Freedom works)

E.G Someone has the freedom to be a moron and someone else has the freedom to point out the moron.

It wasn’t. He just said he hopes Apple ( already injured) goes to IR. He just meant he hopes JJ starts.
