Supposedly Landry has been more engaged than Edwards. He has a buddy who wants and wants an nhl team here too, so maybe the arena transfers to hockey after the new NBA stadium is built.

The bright side of all this is that the NBA loves new arenas. If the Pels go to NBA and say "we need a winning team to gather public support for the project" I would imagine we would start seeing things like trades and ref calls start going our way.


That why Gayle did not want to pay him. Get along great? Sure he and LSED got paid late. More to come? But they get along great.

2 parts I laughed at. When he said who would buy a team that is losing money? Then a couple of years later he buys the Hornets now Pelicans. Then the Toronto Canada comment . Also funny Mike Hoss was the reporter in the video he flip on. Today Hoss is Saints radio broadcaster.

From your article:
quote:

Businessman Shane Guidry, a top political advisor to Republican Gov. Jeff Landry, confirmed that the team turned over the cash, just hours after Landry called Saints owner Gayle Benson Thursday night to discuss the issue.

That call was followed by another “productive call” Friday afternoon between Saints and Pelicans President Dennis Lauscha and Robert Vosbein, chair of the Louisiana Stadium and Exposition District, better known as the Superdome Commission, according to a team spokesman who also confirmed the payment.


Sounds like things are fine.

And Salt Lake City just issued $900m in bonds to Jazz team owner worth 3x less than Gayle for renovations to arena and district surrounding.

Gayle and Co will be happy to put $300m on that turd and call it a day. The whole area needs to be reimagined including her precious New Orleans Centre property.

SLC at least gets 2x the number of professional events with both NBA and NHL teams. But the owner also gets 2x over two teams so maybe they should be made to pay more. I don't know.
