You are litterally sayin the complete opposite of the official saints twitter page. Gail owns the Saints and Pelicans and have already been approved by the NFL and NBA.

Or I know something you don’t. Ban bet???

Once the dust settles, it will be announced that Ms. Gayle is a part of the trust and the archdiocese will also have a seat at the table.

I know Gayle did a lot of work at the Archdiocese of New Orleans due to my mom working there for several decades. She knew her before she married Tom.

Why the hell would they have a stake in a professional football team? That just sounds like a horrible idea all around save for the churches cofers

The flu and other complications. When you’re immobile that long with something like the flu at 90 everything starts to shut down.

No battle over ownership. League has approved Gayle as new owner. That other shite is history

RIP. I distinctly remember Mr. Benson second lining in the Dome a few times when we made the playoffs.

You have tried to have “inside info” on here before. You have failed each time. This will be no different.

he's also referred to that bienemy guy's 22 counts of identity fraud as "a mistake" in a couple of threads this week...i find that odd.

Back when Brees was resigning in 2012, he claimed a buddy was telling him that Drew was signing in a couple of days. It took another month.

I’m actually kind of sad he’s gone. Met him once, was a good dude. Did a lot for New Orleans.
