Additions and Renovations of Saints Facilities

Rugby Saint II · 05-14-2024, 11:43 AM

[QUOTE=AsylumGuido;996029]The difference is that the Saints "self-scouted" and saw that their nutritional/restaurant facilities were subpar and began acting on that in 2019, four years before the NFLPA instituted team "report cards."

There must have been some rumblings from the players who have been to better cafeterias on other teams and realized that they need to invest heavily to ensure that our players are taken care of. One thing about Tom(RIP) and Gayle Benson is that they really care about the players and their families. This is the type of move that separates the family owned Saints from the multimillion dollar corporations where the only thing that matters is making a profit.

I really don't think these upgrades had anything to do with any player complaints. They appear to be part of the entire multiyear project to upgrade everything. Yet another indication of the Saints' commitment to stay in New Orleans for many, many years to come.

The Dome is completely unrecognizable to anyone not having seen a game there in the past couple of years. I'm expecting the improvements made this off-season to make that even more true.
