[CBFF] Joe Horn

[mom2iancal]

Yeah, he was.  But compared to some stunts, I don't think that ranks up 
there as one of the worst  (ie - fake mooning the Packer crowd...though I 
did laugh pretty hard at that one!LOL)

He may have pulled stunts like the cell phone incident...but he's also one 
who has stepped up to help a devastated community.  Even before the 
hurricane hit, he was doing what he could to help others.  I remember 
reading an article or a letter from a woman who was stranded in NO with no 
way to get out, before Katrina hit.  Her mother got in touch with Joe Horn 
(they knew each other from childhood).  She had not seen or spoken to him in 
many years.  He personally went to the hotel to pick up this woman and her 
husband.  He had them driven to Atlanta where they were able to get a flight 
out.

He and Reggie Bush both did a lot after the hurricane.  I know a lot of 
celebreties sent money, which is great.  But remember reading on several 
occasions how these two would get right out there in the trenches to do what 
they could to help.     To me, that shows how much he cared about the 
community and it shows that he is a class act, in my opinion.  Cell phone 
and all.   If I were a Saint's fan, it would be a pretty sad day.
