That’s fine, disassociate from the city and remain a fan of the team. Sell the team.

London. The Cowboys & Texans owners would block any move to San Antonio


Good luck with that when the pressure of San Antonio mayor and Governor apply pressure. Very naive of you to think huge markets like Houston and DFW would view Saints as a threat. Move the team out of here, NOLA has no juice.

This doesn't mean squat when all the owners have to approve franchise sales & relocation.

You are very naive in the power Jerry Jones has amongst fellow NFL owners.

Owners do not want to diminish their value by restricting wheee the business can practice. Only takes 24 or 75% to approve. If the new owner wants to move the Saints they are gone, deal with it.

How often do you jerk off about the idea of the saints leaving?

San Antonio is not some big untapped market like idiots like yourself make it out to be.

The Cowboys have a huge Hispanic following in the San Antonio market. Also, that area falls in the NFC viewership market for the Cowboys. You are absolute fool if you think Jerry Jones would willing allow another NFL franchise to impede on that market.

With LA and Las Vegas having teams there isn’t a an obvious market to move a team. Maybe Toronto Saints are about to sign an extension to lease with the state

incorrect. you have 3 cities i listed above who had NFL teams. others who could support one with the population and infrastructure.

Oakland, St. Louis & San Diego lost their franchises because they refused to build new stadiums. Neither of those cities have built new stadiums since they lost their franchises.

Any Canadian location is not a legitimate suggestion because of Canada's current shitty economy which would struggle to support a NFL franchise. Not to mention some of the ridiculous restrictions that Canada has for foreign visitors. Miles Bridges of the Hornets couldn't play in Toronto against the Raptors because of previous legal issues.

quote:

Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges was denied entry to Canada ahead of the team's game against the Toronto Raptors on Monday night and will not play. The team's attempts to reverse the decision were unsuccessful, and Bridges was officially ruled out shortly before tip-off.

The Canadian government's exact reason for denying Bridges' entry is unclear, though it likely stems from his various legal issues. In June of 2022 


Salt Lake City & Portland are interesting locations but you have to figure that Portland is Seahawks country. Same goes for Milwaukee being Packer territory.

There’s a reason no other NFL board wants their team to be sold and move like this one, deep down most know it’s the only chance they can improve and win again.

Whether you want to admit or not, Sean Payton left us because NOLA sucks.

If the London Jags ever become a thing, then I’d be worried about moving the Saints to Paris/Amsterdam/Munich as a travel partner but that would be way down the line.

If she sells the Team - they may move out of the City . She needs to bone up and clean house with competent leadership!
