Bobby Hebert said he hopes Eli Apple goes to IR

Can’t stand the PC culture... I don’t care he said that, Apple has been trash for the last 8 weeks.

Anyone who thinks he should be fired should get fired for whatever... just the dumbest ****.

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.

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

Don't play dumb, to try to make some point. You're smart enough to know that someone saying "I hope he goes on IR" means I hope he gets injured, or IS injured enough so he won't be out there.

Know how I made that "brilliant" deduction? Because IR stands for injured reserve. How else to you end up on IR? No one was answering your question, because it frankly didn't warrant a response. But since you kept asking, here's your answer.

You are correct in a sense, but wanting this injury to be so that he gets put on IR and does not recover has the same feeling for me. So, where he didn't actually wish the injury, not wanting someone to recover, for me anyway, is tantamount to the same thing in that he wants him to remaining injured. Still a dick move in my opinion, but as I have said, one that he is entitled to make.
