Joe Horn feels unappreciated by the Saints-PFT read

It's been widely reported that when the New Orleans Saints beat the Arizona Cardinals in the divisional round of the playoffs, former Saints running back Deuce McAllister was brought back to be a part of it.
What's been largely overlooked is that another former Saint, wide receiver Joe Horn, was also at the Superdome. But while McAllister was honored on the field, Horn sat in the cheap seats and watched the game.
SNIP
"I never sat in the stands before, but I was up there with the fans, and they were just stunned to see me," Horn said. "I wanted to sit in the nose-bleed section. I wanted to be with the rowdy of the rowdies, and I also wanted to be me, and that's exactly what I was. The 50 to 100 people who got the autographs and the hugs from me, they got them, and they enjoyed themselves, and I enjoyed myself.

Damn did the camaras ever show him in the stands. I had no idea he was there.

I can understand him being a little upset he wasn't up there with McAllister as well. Horn should of gotten more attn. He did a lot for that team and stuck with them for a while.

You'd think he could have personally afforded to upgrade.

*raises hand*
Joe Horn is one of my all time favorite saints.

The reason Horn wasn't on the sidelines is that the Saints didn't want him there. Horn has been critical of Saints coach Sean Payton, so it's not a big surprise that Payton wouldn't want him around. But Horn said he's still a big Saints fan, and he wants them to win the Super Bowl.
This is the key in that paragraph. Another example of some BS media outlet just trying to stir shite. They want to try and bring up him not being appreciated but want you to forget that he has said some pretty critical things about SP. Not to mention about moving the Saints.

Everybody's remorseful AFTER they act like an arse. Joe can suck it. If he had focused on being a good, team football player and a decent guy, maybe he'd still be here.
I would NOT have asked for an autograph or a pic from a selfish a-hole.
Eat a fat one, Joe. This Saints fan doesn't feel the slightest bit sorry for you.

sign deuce, activate arrington, and leave Horn at home? Horn got short changed.
what did the Saints get for Horn, nothing, did they just release him?

Anybody who knows Joe knows he puts on a good front. If you want to believe the front, I say fine and keep believing the lie if it makes you feel better. Ignorance is bliss.
For those that have shared phone conversations with the man and his agent, you know better.

how can you fault the guy for wanting to make as much money as he could?
i will never understand fans getting mad at players for looking out for themselves.

Why should the saints honor every former player now that they are going to the Superbowl?
Besides McAllister was drafted by the saints and retired a saint...Joe Horn not so much!

I fault him for being a dickbag. He was a showoff, me first, attention hound and he didn't care if it was good or bad for the team. SP gave him an opportunity to turn off the Ocho Cinco routine and become part of a TEAM. He bucked the system, spoke out against his coach in the media and generally made himself out to be a victim at every turn.
frick that guy.
