See the previous link about the new Benson deal. It is around $28 million annually

So $28 million is the total?

Dude. I thought you were talking about significant money.

My back of the envelope VERY conservative estimate for taxes paid by the players is $13M

LOL. It would be a walk in the park to account for greater than $30M

Find a real issue.

Quick check

Saints players make roughly 160 million a year. Half the games are played in NO so its all not taxable in La. But even if it were all taxable at a 6% rate it still wouldn't bring in ten million dollars.
