I always kinda wonder what would have happened.
I honestly wonder if the city would've come back. There was something about games in 06 that just made everything better. And without saints games on Sunday to this day I'd be a miserable unhappy person. Also, there'd be no real reason or money to renovate the Dome so for all I know it would still be sitting there. Or maybe even destroyed.
Scary to think about.

It's an eerie thought. I'd imagine there'd be this faction of Saints diehards who'd be pulling for the team in San Antonio, and then a smattering of Texans fans throughout. But the city as a whole may have really never gotten back. Even non-football fans in the city rallied around them. Still, I think there would have been this urge to put a team back here. True that LA doesn't have a team yet, but that's based on economics. There would have been a pretty public clamoring here for a team.

Very Scary, and it was a very real possibility. Glad it worked out in our favor.
