This has been brewing for quite sometime and the best thing that can happen for the future of the franchise in NOLA.

Rita being "tough to work with" doesn't even begin to tip the ice berg on how big a headcase she is. She's hired and fired dozens upon dozens on assistants on the prettiest of things. Went off on them if they didn't bring her her smoothies right, etc.

Her crazy mom used to live in an RV that was parked at the Saints facility during the season and people around the facility got the vibe that they along with the brother were circling an ill Tom Benson.

Rita was escorted from the building this week and was revoked of her Pelicans courtside seats and had her office cleared out quite publically to everyone in the facility. That crew is no longer welcome on airline

Bottom line is this is a great day for the franchises future. Gayle is a true "Saint" and is genuine and the type thats never met a stranger and makes it a point to stop and talk with everyone around the facility and she'll stay out of the way and let the football people run the football team. Well done Tom

Christ.

I think that RV was parked out by his dock for a while. Was wondering what that was all about.

TIFWIW, but I interned for the Saints for two seasons from 2007-2008, and I can confirm everything you posted was true. I had personal experience with the damn smoothie nonsense.
