up yours, Jackson.


Best news I've heard since we got Gregg Williams on board.

It was always so amazing to me that the State of Louisiana is subsidizing the Saints to the tune of $15-$20 million dollars a year and yet we export training camp and hundreds of hotel rooms per night to another state.

WTF was that all about?

Let's say 200 hotel rooms (players, coaches, media) at $100 a night (probably a close guess to a Saints discount offered to all affiliated) times 30 nights (give or take).

That's $600,000 in hotel expenses alone that the Saints were exporting to Mississippi.

Never mind the catering, restaurants, gas stations, Wal-Marts, etc.

These are the same asshats who wouldn't let Louisianians take their highway exits when fleeing from Gustav last August. frick them.

Actually not the worst thing I've heard from Alej. Uncalled for? Completely. But not shocking at all.
