your honor, look at his 2's, he's fricking lost his mind!

There's no denying that what he did with the Saints was good for the city and state and he's got more money than God. That said, I never cared for the old man, and quite frankly, I always questioned his cognitive skills, tactfulness and ability to articulate. And don't lecture me with the old "How'd he get to be a billionaire" line.

I agree with that. The government circling like god damn vultures and picking away at the carcass of his earnings after he is dead. Estate taxes are horseshite.

If I were him, I'd sell the Saints, eliminate the trust funds (if there are any), spend every dime before I died. That way, the wife doesn't get a cent, and neither do the children.

If she is banned from the stadium and then goes to a game she will be escorted out and may even have to go to the Superdome holding cells.
He actually does have the ability to refuse entry to her at any event of his.

Can you imagine for years knowing that you will own the new Orleans saints, to only be told as time is near you can't even go to any games...

That's along the lines of Lucifer being cast out of heaven type shite.

Really? That would be a good start on repaying back the hundreds of millions in "welfare payments" that have been paid to the Bensons because they owned the Saints and constantly threatened to move them.

looking at that, the family sees Gail as a god digger.
Read the whole thing, interesting to see where this goes.

I'm not sure how I feel about this.

Rita and co might be assholes, but if they really think their father is incompetent, they're within reason to want his health checked.

Gayle seems like a great lady, but she might be influencing Tom to her own benefit. (I'm not saying that's a bad thing)

I feel bad for the old man. I've been in the middle of disputes within my own family and it's not pleasant.

That petition is quite something. It puts forth a very compelling case for interdiction and does so very eloquently. Great illustration of the facts. I look forward to the reply.

Man I hope people read that. There is some daming stuff. The Devaluation of the Sports teams in the pay-offs of the trusts. The letters, the strange orders. It could be all Gayle.
