It would all be settled if Benson appeared in court. Waving to fans and giving one sentence to a reporter from his own TV station isn't enough. Get him in a court room. The fact that his family wants that and the NOLA group doesnt says a bunch.


It says they have good attorneys. You think the attorney drafted all that for Benson if he himself didn't think he was competent? They knew this would be challenged. It is on the kids to prove he wasn't competent at the time. Very difficult to prove.

respect Mr.Tom Benson


I do respect the man and as for his so called wife, I have none,because my view is she is trying to ruin a family and she has her own agenda..I Respect other posters on this site to say what they feel because that is what this all about "FREE SPEACH" you have a right to your opinion and so do I..seen this happen too many times in life to Wealthy men and she needs to be stopped. If he is in his right mind let him speak publicly and set the record straight. Then I will believe other wise until then, this is how I view it.. Just my opinion

Yes I think there both gold diggers but at least Tom in his right mind had his family Rita Benson Le Blanc in charge..that's how he wanted it long ago and not all of a sudden Gail changes everything,please..Let the man tell the judge that..

I don't think you understand what Free Speech means. No one is saying that the government should stop you from posting on TD. That doesn't protect you from being called an idiot for saying idiotic things

He spoke one sentence at the Pelicans game

Gave an abbreviated interview to his own TV station which his current wife seemed to cut short and drive off

I've read the full complaint. I've also read almost every article written on the matter.

One of the things that struck me was that Benson's attorneys video taped him making the changes to his will and the trusts.

It's almost as though they were expecting a competency challenge. I would love to see the video. I wonder if they had a doctor there attesting to his competency.

Finally, let me add that if 1/10th of what has been alleged in the complaint against Gayle is even halfway truthful, she does have some explaining to do.

I think you have nailed it with this insight. He's cuckoo.
I saw Marshawn lynch do the same thing in his interview and that dude is crazy as sh!t. Good work.

I don't like the things I hear about Rita but it does sound like Tom has lost it. Multiple people who hate Rita are on the MSB are talking about how they spoke with Tom at a party recently and he isn't there

He might not be there but if everyone and their mom in the fo is talking shite about rita, and supporting gale, you think you could point to the source of the issue. I mean it's pretty obvious those personnel has no cut of Benson's pie

Yeah I mean I'm scared at the prospect of losing the saints to San Antonio or elsewhere if Rita takes over

But this whole thing is fishy and I don't like how it has played out. Benson grooms granddaughter for years and years and then all of a sudden he ousts the entire family he's had since they were born to give to his 20 year younger wife who was no where in the picture of ownership until a month ago when hes 87 and clearly not looking like himself

The subtle smear campaign against bensons daughter began 3 years Ago and it seems all so orchestrAted

I'm glad I'm not rich

Rita treated personnel I'm sure how benson taught her to
Look at what previous employees of benson had to say about him when he wasn't 87
Not the nicest

It would almost certainly be sold as she will not have enough "other assets" to pay the 40% estate tax.

Honestly, I think the evidence and everything I've heard suggest Loomis, Lauscha, Payton and others had long talks with Gayle and Tom about the future of the teams. That's at the heart of what's going on here.

Rita is family and that's my problem with this situation. How do you give a fortune to a woman that has only been in your life for that short of time?


You do it when you remarry someone you love and you're so happy you won't be alone in your old age, and then for petty selfish reasons your grandchildren make your life a living hell both privately and publicly while squandering their opportunities and failing at their positions within your companies.

That said.

The facts are that he is giving a shite load of money to Rita and the rest. He just doesn't ' want them to have any managerial control over his companies. Why that bothers anyone who knows about or has met Rita is beyond my comprehension.
