Well he surely got Gayle to use the saints PR to go out and work for the church so yes I would say he has had more pull then you think.

I wonder if he gets the final say on wether to pay Kamara. I bet he wants to ship Hill’s Mormon arse out ASAP.

If these emails they are trying to prevent being seen are more than her statement this will end badly.

Can someone lay out wtf we know they did and what you boys are hearing or suggesting they really did.

For example, we know Sandusky fricked little Boys at Penn State. Everyone that knows people there or followed this shite has heard it was a pedofile ring run by Sandusky for wealthy PSU alums and friends. The local DA looking into this before Sandusty ended up on a missing persons episode, and after exhaustive FBI search etc, still nothing to this day.

So what did they really ducking do?

NFL has already stated they are not investigating this situation. Nothing will come of it.

This is a joke, and Gayle is an absolute moron. Within 2 years this idiot has already got the franchise into some shite bc the arch bishop is literally running the franchise. He is with her every time you see her. If they in anyway tried to cover anything up then Gayle should be forced to sell both franchises.


Jumping to conclusions much? Calm down and wait for FACTS.

Would you mind linking that for me if you get a chance?

I saw this:

quote:

Greg Bensel, our senior vice president of communications, was asked if he would help the Archdiocese prepare for the media relative to the release of clergy names involved in the abuse scandal. In the weeks leading up to the Nov. 2, 2018, release of clergy names, Greg met with the Archbishop and communications staff.


From Gayle’s statement and for the fricking life of me I will never understand why this was a thing.

Also, this guy is such a PR genius that his only counsel was to “be transparent and honest”? Are you fricking with me? Anybody can do that

AP Article Nola.com

New article today from Brett Martel of the AP. I’m guessing these are the two biggest things to keep an eye on when this drops.

quote:

The attorneys contend that included taking an active role in helping to shape the archdiocese’s 2018 release of its list of 57 credibly accused clergy, a roster an AP analysis found had omitted at least 20 names.



quote:

Plaintiffs' attorneys Richard Trahant and John Denenea recently subpoenaed Benson's charitable foundation for any records relating to “settlements of claims for clergy abuse” over the past decade.

“Archbishop Gregory Aymond stated that he could turn to ‘benefactors’ to help him pay sexual abuse claims," they said, referring to an interview Aymond gave last year. “We are simply following the legal process to see if he has turned to his biggest benefactor Gayle Marie Benson."

This is a big nothing burger.

People want to scream about child molestation and how disgusting this is. And it is. The Catholic Church is piece of shite organization.

But no one really cares. I don’t know a single devout Catholic who stopped being Catholic when the scandal broke. They’re all in a way complicit in the behavior. But society has decided it doesn’t really care. Which is the case with most things

The media this morning has been granted access to next Thursday’s discovery hearing regarding the release of emails

The saints & archdiocese were trying to block them from being there

Cool so I guess we will get more blown out of water articles in order for these media companies to make a buck on a big nothing burger?

I want to think it’s a nothing burger but why are the saints & archdiocese adamant about not sharing these emails if there is nothing there?

Unless every email is a lunch order everyone will spin the emails, the Saints end up looking bad no mister what.

Private business shouldn’t give into parties just because they throw around some allegations.

I don’t think that is true

The Saints have said specifically what their role was. If it doesn’t match up it will be pretty easy to see
