Dan Snyder was basically forced to sell for much less. If NFL gets involved here we could have a new owner very soon. Hopefully Moore backs out.

He been honored by other owners since then. So has Jerry Jones. From every indication Gayle Benson is well liked by ownership across the league.![]()
This same basic info has been shared off and on for the past five or six years. It hasn't been a concern of the league to this point. |

There's no telling what kind of skeletons are lurking in all of their closets. ![]()

Re: If true this is absolutely disgusting
I sympathize with the victims of this abuse. I also sympathize with the victims of DeShaun Watson's abuse. My understanding is that in both cases victims were raped both via coercion and force, and although Watsons victims may have been 5-10 years older, as a parent there is no age that it would be ok for a predator to assault my kid. The difference between the two cases to me from the Saints perspective is that in the case of the clergy abuse, the Saints may have given some advice to help their owners church move forward, but they did not attempt to trade multiple first round picks and sign a multi hundred million dollar contract to add the offenders to their active football roster. In the case of the Deshaun Watson scandal, the Saints did exactly that. So if we had to fire one and keep the other, I would rather fire Loomis and keep Bensel.
