I agree. Loomis and Lauscha have been getting blank checks from the Bensons to do whatever they want, forever, and are never getting fired.

Its why Payton trying to weasel his way to another team, for years, is so baffling. He was in that inner circle, with a HC job and essentially co-ownership power, for life.

He might get GM duties wherever he coaches next. But he'll never have the control he had here. We were literally wearing the helmets he designed last night.

This was my last game. I’ve seen enough to this point.

Loomis along with Payton destroyed our salary cap situation chasing another SB in which they never went too. You think Sean left bc he needed a break? No, he left because he knew there was no way to stay competitive with all the damage he and his buddy Loomis did. He gets to go to a different team and start over.

Absolutely do. Jerry is a shrewd businessman who knows selling the brand off the field is just as important as what he produces inside the stadium. He is not about to give up any of that without a fight.


You give him way too much credit to think he could stop a $5B business from moving to TX. We aren’t talking Ft Worth with the move.

They're going to demand a new stadium and nothing in Louisiana moves fast. I also see the Saints moving in 5 years or so. Leaving after Katrina was bad optics, then Payton built a hell of a franchise that sold seats, now? We have a crap football team, terrible coach, no draft picks/in cap hell, and the oldest stadium in the NFL. Last domino to fall will be attendance.




Ironically, this would then have the moves they made last season make sense. Hire with the intent to fail and lose fan support, making it easier to sell and harder to get people to buy into building a new stadium.

Then give all the money to the Archdioceses.

Agree but 16 years living in the shitehole was enough. His new wife hates NOLA.

Guys, the saints and the state agreed to a deal to stay here until 2035. And then there are additional extensions until 2055 that can be tacked on.

Relax

If a new owner wants to buy and move the team, it would cost him, conservatively, $10 billion

Gayle as I’ve posted 50 times has no fricking clue. I knew her in business before she even knew Tom. She is one big doe doe bird.
She fires Lookmis, she has no where to turn except selling the team.

Never said in my post he would win the fight, only he would do everything in his power to stop it. What's hard to understand about that?

Loomis and Payton were essentially owners without having any repercussions for their terrible decisions and spending. None can see the forest through the trees because they’re not pissing away their own money. Gayle is just the executor of a future endowment to Ochsner and the archdiocese.
