Well another reason you don't want to move the stadium to Hammond (as an example) is that New Orleans needs the Saints tourism


i think hammond is abit far, but NO east is definitely close enough to downtown

It would be so cruel to the shopowners, hoteliers, and restauranteurs to have the stadium build more than 3 miles outside of downtown.


it might be the only thing that keeps the saints here.

the saints lose out on ALOT of regional support b/c of its location. i think theonly way they can achieve long term success is by becomingmore regional

You have any evidence of this besides your opinion?

Why would regional people from west of the city want to go to NO East? The regional people I know that come to games enjoy coming to the city that is part of the attraction. Driving 12.5 minutes less to be in NOEast is not an advantage for anyone besides the person that would own the land in NO East.
