Benson LeBlanc's offices at the teams' Metairie headquarters recently have been vacated and her company-issued Mercedes-Benz and cell phone have been seized.
She has not participated in team-related business meetings since the end of the Saints' 2014 season. A statement from Benson said, "Rita will not be involved in the ownership or management of the Saints or Pelicans."

I'm guessing this wasn't an amicable split.

Gotta be bad if Gramps took the phone and car.

This is very good and stabilizing news IMO. Sucks for family but Gaye has been nothing short of outstanding

Wasn't it rumored that CSP said he would never work for Rita?

Gayle just got some major points for being a future owner of the saints. From a solid OT 7 to a 9, easy.

Yep, he ain't answering to a crazy bish he doesn't respect

Reminds me of this:

quote:
"I apologize to the people of this country (insert fans of this team) as chairman of Korean Air (insert Saints) and as a (grand)father for the trouble caused by my (grand)daughter's foolish conduct," said Cho (insert Benson), who bowed deeply in front of media crowded in the lobby of the airline's (team's) headquarters.
"I am sorry I did not educate her well," her (grand)father said

Renee Benson gives off a Kathy Geiss vibe in that pic. Very good she won't be involved.

Rumor is that Rita and her mom wanted to have Tom seen by a dementia specialist in order to have him declared incompotent and he blew a gasket.

Well that escalated quickly!!! LOL

I think you tie all the money Benson has donated over the last few years, especially huge donation to the Hall of Fame to reach this point. Benson is a wealthy man, but on the poorer side of NFL owners.

Isnt Gayle a old new orleans socialite? This has to be good for the saints staying long term.
Posted on 1/21/15 at 7:58 pm to Chad504boy
Seems somebody pissed off pawpaw

I have a bad feeling that Rita now is going to come out with a huge press conference/interview where she claims that she was ousted from the organization for being a lesbian. In other words try to damage the organization as much as she can if she won't be a part of it.
