Much has been said about the treatment of Marcus Williams' by Bobby - the (self-titled) "Cajun Cannon" Hebert who also gave himself the claim of being the "Founding Father" of the Who Dat Nation. Neither of these titles were bestowed on him by Saints fans and are nothing but marketing ploys for WWL and his restaurant.
All this talk has accomplished nothing and talk never will. He claims he doesn't have to be ethical because he isn't a journalist, just a "conversationalist." That being the case, the Saints should revoke his press credentials. Those are for actual journalists who don't incite more violence towards a 21 year old rookie star in the making who made one bone headed play at the worst possible time. It wasn't any secret that the kid was receiving death threats, pictures of burning crosses, and invitations to "just kill yourself." The manner in which Hebert continued to imply that Williams threw the game intentionally by repeatedly calling the play shady - even after he contrived an excuse to claim he was talking about coaching, not the play being fixed - and the went back on that the second a woman caller (30 year season ticket holder) challenged him on it. He got irate with her when she held him accountable and Booby accused Williams of throwing the game again, calling on the historical references of cheating in sports - The Black Sox scandal, Tulane point shaving and Paul Hornung and Alex Karras (two NFL players who played in an era where NFL players sold cars in the off-season to make ends meet - not today's NFL).
WWL shouldn't be excused in their failure to reign him in either. The Saints are their biggest partnership, without which, their listener base would literally disappear. If you think Bobby Hebert's drunken, illogical rants are representative of you, the actual Saints fan Bobby Hebert is representing to a near national audience on WWL at night, this petition isn't for you. If you think he crossed the line, or many different lines, in his treatment of Williams and anyone who called in to defend him over the past week, I think you'd probably agree with not wanting an admittedly drunken person who doesn't care about his job representing you and the REAL Who Dat Nation on the air, not the one led by the Atlanta Falcons quarterback who taunted all of us by flying around the Dome after going to the Falcons. We were the Who Dat Nation back then and still are. Bobby Hebert isn't the founding father of anything but his own alcoholic fan club and it shows everytime he slurs his rants into the microphones of WWL. Remove this buffoon before you lose your loyal listeners to other area shows that actually respect the effort our Saints put on the field this year and don't try to humiliate them on the air because they can't deal with their own emotions about the game and separate them from the game itself. Letters are being sent to their major advertisers as well. None of them will receive a penny from me. A letter is being sent to the Saints also to make them aware of the character assassination of their players by someone they've granted more team access than most others in the field. I, and many, many others, will not be listening to WWL once the clock strikes 4:00 pm. until Bobby Hebert has either pubilicly apologized to Williams and the Saints or is no longer on the air.

I have been glued to the radio lately and honestly the way he just pivots when people call him out is getting more exhausting by the hour. It feels like he just digs his heels in deeper every time someone tries to talk sense into him or point out how dangerous that kind of talk really is for a young player.

Tired of hearing him bash our team when they not playing how he thinks they should. We don't act like this and are tired of being misrepresented by a person like this.
Perfectly said someone who doesn't know how to take the good with the bad and takes time to belittle a man for making a mistake doesn't deserve to represent the Saints.
He's completely unprofessional and regularly makes the Saints and their fans look bad. He answers his own questions as he asks them and is always drunk and talking over his guests. His treatment of Marcus Williams is disgusting and he should be fired for it.
In my opinion the actions of Hebert are indefensible and he should immediately be removed from WWL's Saints coverage. I will be informing WWL's sponsors that I will no longer be a patron of their service/establishment/goods as long as Hebert remains a part of WWL's Saints coverage.
Please get this alcoholic off the air. His sort of inebriated, offensive rambling portrays our entire fanbase in a negative light. Your station should have a better metric of the type of behavior it tolerates from on-air talent.
Sounds like he’s a little jealous when he should be congratulating the team. Founding father my ass.
Man is horrible. Is not a professional. He attacked led miles after the 2011 national championships game because his son lost his starting job. He was like a 7-8 coaches pitch parent crying about his son not playing enough. He needs to go. No way that man is a good for the Saints.

Bobby J crossed the line when he repeatedly called out Marcus Williams on the losing play against the Vikes. Too many times has he been allowed to ramble unchecked to the point where it'd been better NOT hearing this less-than-appreciated comments or humor.
