I wonder if any of this was affecting the FO, coaching staff or team during the season. It just seemed like something was "off" beyond the usual football stuff.

Gayle rocks. This is great. Though most thought past few years that Rita would have no active role after Benson kicks it.

Eta - mean active role in management of team as opposed to figurehead or PR. Did not expect her to be completely cut out from ownership, but did expect Gayle to have a more active role.

I always knew Rita had too much class and smarts for the old man. Never did care for the old fart.

I think there is no question that it negatively impacted our ability to apply consistent pressure on opposing quarterbacks.

The fear was that Rita would have gone against the plan in place once the old man dies. Gayle and Rita/ Rita's mother have been at a war for the past few months.

Isnt Gayle a old new orleans socialite? This has to be good for the saints staying long term.


Both she and Dennis Lauscha are from New Orleans. The Saints will never leave.

From a few years ago

quote:

Benson, according to sources, reached a breaking point near the end of the 2011 season and felt it was necessary to deliver a wake-up call to his 35-year-old granddaughter. No single incident led to the action, they said. Instead, Benson saw it as a pattern of behavior that needed to be corrected.

Unnamed sources cited LeBlanc’s “lack of focus and abrasive management style.” Apparently she has gone through 30 personal assistants just in the last six years, a stunning figure if accurate. While she was complimented for her talent and smarts, LeBlanc’s sense of entitlement was what irked her grandfather, according to the report.




Sounds like a real class act.

How do you get handed co-ownership title of an NFL franchise by your own grandfather and frick it up? Think about that.

...and the entire San Antonio contingent just got wiped from ownership. This is a win-win.
